A
new state of the art, patent pending practice bearing,
the
Slow Juan Bearing! |
|
Slow
Juan's are designed to replace the conventional bearings
in your skateboard so that you can learn simple, complex
or the extreme tricks both faster and safer. The Slow
Juan Bearing, enables you to keep your practice sessions
nearly identical to the real thing as is possible. Our
bearings weigh slightly less than a standard metal ABEC
style bearings, and since they're made of a custom neoprene
rubber composite they add a slight bounce to your deck
which means you can practice and perform ollies higher
and heel flips faster! |
Slow
Juan Bearings, unlike other "practice truck replacements"
accessories, create a unique learning experience because
unlike the others, your board is essentially unaffected
in it's performance. Similar in over all weight, height
-and best of all - Slow Juans roll! The
truck replacement style practice gear, you're stuck with
a heavier, simulated board experience that is not even
close to the real action. |
The
fact that Slow Juans roll, although very slowly, they
fact that they do roll makes real world trick practice
possible. Our patent describes it as "low velocity
skateboard bearing." With our bearings, you can move
the board forward or backward as necessary for performing
any trick or maneuver, but in a relatively slow and controlled
manner. Similarly, vertical height, horizontal wiggle,
and board pivoting and rotation can be achieved, but under
a controlled, braked movement effect. |

| The
Slow Juan Bearing Advantage! |
- Use
your real wheels, trucks and deck
- only the bearing are replaced for practice!
- Dramatically
lower the time to learn complex maneuvers.
- Rolls
"just enough" to allow tricks like heel
flips while moving slowly.
- Adjust
the deck's "spring", horizontal drag and
wiggle just by adjusting the truck nuts.
- Safe
for use in all conditions, even in puddles! Use indoors
or out.
- Highly
stable to stand and move around on.
- Stability
is directly reflected by the settings of your trucks.
Your deck behaves "normally."
- Transition
from practice to real bearings trick success is simple.
Your deckand truck settings never change and it feels
the same.
- No
runaway boards to retrieve after a failed trick. Typical
roll is less than one foot away.
- No
endangering other park or home riders by runaway boards.
- Fits
any trucks and wheels using a standard bearings size.
- A
fraction of the price of a typical "replacement
truck" practice thing.

Slow
Juan Bearings are easy to install, remove and they just
plain work! See for yourself. Click on the videos on the
right side of this screen to see them in action or right
click and save to your hard drive for better video performance.
They feature a 13 and 14 year old medium level skater
attempting: a manual, a nose manual, ollie and a heel
flip both on regular bearings and then using Slow Juan
Bearings. Notice how the deck moves and how the trick
performance is enhanced by our bearings. The video is
a little amateurish, but it is because we wanted to prove
there was no editing, no "fixing" the outcome
of the test. |
