Swiss or MOC?

[kovalchuk71 212]

What do you guys think? How do they compare? I had swiss and really liked them, but the Moc abec 9 sound very good from what people say. Can I get some opinions?

I'll never buy anything but Bones Swiss for the rest of my playing days, hell I may even use the same set I have now. I play on a dirty(little dirt, little leaves)outdoor rink with full boards and nets. I clean my bearings after every game and there isn't speck of rust and all of the bearings spin perfect. Im thinking about getting a set of the Bones Swiss Ceramics so I won't need to buy anymore again.

Yeah swiss lasts forever. If you want to lower the wieght of your skates go for mini bearings. But that limits your choices of wheels after.

I've skated bsb swiss, bones swiss, bones ceramic.. and in that orderd. I should have my moc 9's later in the week. As someone who will have skated various brands, I'll give a comparison after my next game or two. I can tell you now that there wasn't a big enough difference, if any, to justify the price of the ceramics verus regular swiss. Also, I prefered the bones to the bsb... mainly for the dust shields.

I got some MOC 9's and they are not doing so hot. They took a game or two to "break in" if you will, and they were awesome for a month or two, but lately they do not spin so much. It's odd because I don't feel like I'm skating any slower, they just don't spin in place when I'm just messing with my wheels. I cleaned them a month or two ago, and the process was relatively simple. If you get the Sonic bearing washer thing, it should be a breeze. The caps are rubber, so they pop off with a needle.

I've never tried swiss, but I think it may be time to.
