Girl was created in 1993 by Mike Carrol and Rick Howard, former World Industries riders. Their logo is very easily identifiable, not to be confused with the logo of the toilets ... Girl has become a reference in board matters!
The precision of skate bearings can be defined by the Abec standard with a scale of 1 to 9. The higher the number, the faster the bearings go, but without compromising on strength. Unfortunately, the shocks from the different tricks significantly weaken the ride, and immediately lead to its failure. This is why an Abec 7 bearing only has the advantage of rolling faster than the Abec 3, but in no way ensures better resistance to shocks. In all cases, to keep your bearings as long as possible, do not ride in water, avoid sand, and from time to time give them a cleaning with a rag and a drop of Speed Cream or oil. sewing machine.
