Seismic has raised the bar on bearing tech yet again! We spent over two years nerding out with a crack team of American engineers from one of the biggest and best bearing factories in the world. We scrutinized and re-assessed every last component and design feature – and seized on every opportunity to make refinements both large and small – to fully optimize all aspects of skate bearing performance. Roll tighter, truer, faster, and smarter on FULLSPIN – the finest skate bearings in the history of skate bearings!

6-Ball, 7-Ball, & 10mm Systems • Built-In & Classic Constructions
Premium Steel & Black Ceramic Ball Options

Twelve different models – the widest range on the market – with varying feature sets to fill every possible performance need. Next-level Built-In or Classic spacing tech. Steel or Black Ceramic balls in superior Grade G10 for truer, lower-friction spin inside bearings.

Exceptionally Tight, Consistent Specs for Raceway Curvature and Ball Clearance

These parameters are extremely technical, but together they determine mission-critical performance characteristics: how closely raceways wrap around balls, how smoothly and precisely outer rings spin, and how evenly load is distributed inside bearings. Too many brands feign expertise with an overblown muddle of token bearing jargon. Not Seismic. We fully committed to mastering the science, and we pooled brainpower with one of the few factories on earth geared up to get these specifications dialed tight. So Fullspin bearings roll with significantly less internal play, friction,wear, and noise; and superior speed, handling, and durability!

Extra-Tough (XT) Steel and Thicker Outer Rings

Steel specifications are quite complex, but they’re pivotal to bearing strength and durability. Fullspin XT bearing steel is as good as it gets. So raceways hold strictest curvature and finest surface finish – and bearings stay tight and fast – for far longer. Thicker, 60%-stiffer outer rings resist flexing, spin truer and faster, and keep seals from popping off on extreme impacts.

Next-Level Built-In and Classic Spacing / Alignment Systems

Accurate spacing and precise alignment are critical considerations that are too often overlooked. They bring superior paired performance of seated bearings; more consistent wheel contact and grip; more predictable slide dynamics; and longer wheel and bearing life. We’ve dialed both Built-In and Classic systems to a whole new level. Get your bearings straight with Fullspin!

Our Built-In designs (XT and LITE) feature integral half-spacers with smarter, stricter width specs. Patented extra-wide flanges on premium XT models square up inside wheels with more than double the contact area of ordinary Built-In interfaces – powering absolutely unparalleled alignment precision and stability.

Our Classic systems feature thick-walled spacers made of highest-grade bearing steel and machined with significantly smarter, stricter width and bore specs. Next-level profiled spacers (included with Ceramic XT models and available separately) have broad flanged ends that square up against matching extra-wide inner ring surfaces with up to 67% more contact area – powering unprecedented Classic alignment precision and stability.

High-End Lubricant

Light grease formulated by one of the world’s leading lubricant suppliers for peak performance under real-world skating stresses (not max free-spin time). No gimmicky additives, just the tried-and-true premium stuff embraced by top bearing engineers.

Superior Anti-Contaminant Seals and Ball Retainers

Seal’s outside lip is customized to precisely slot inside outer ring groove, while its inside lip forms a robust “Labyrinth” interface with a stepped T-groove on inner ring. Next-gen ball retainer has expanded diameter that engages an identical groove on inside of bearing – to form a unique integral barrier against dust and debris without a second seal. Streamlined construction not only repels dirt and grime more efficiently with fewer components; it also retains lubricant noticeably better than other designs – with virtually no lube “spin-out.” Keeps bearing spinning smooth and fast for longer… with less friction, wear, and noise.

No Imaginary Tech, Pseudo-Science, or Smoke-and-Mirrors
Just superior performance through genuinely advanced, no-BS engineering; highest-quality materials and components; and highest-precision manufacturing.

GO FULL SPEED WITH FULLSPIN!

The world’s most progressive bearings…
just got even BETTER!

Tekton rolls out the biggest and most advanced line of bearings in skate history. 10 new bearing models in all! Whatever your performance needs, we’ve got it covered.

• All models updated with superior steel and thicker outer casings – significantly improving speed, durability, and longevity.
• Advanced heat treatment gives Premium “XT” (Extra-Tough) models superior metallurgic properties – boosting speed and durability to an even higher level!
• Premium Built-In models feature an upgrade to our patented flanged half-spacer design – bringing you alignment that’s more precise and consistent than ever.
• Premium Ceramic Classic models packaged with Tekton Precision-Profiled XT spacers, made of true high-end bearing steel (instead of ordinary iron or aluminum) – bringing a revolutionary level of durable alignment to free-spaced bearings. (Also available separately.)

• No fake tech or exaggerations… just more speed and longevity through real science and no-BS engineering!

In this first episode of the Seismic Eurotour Video Series, Seismic Team riders Rafa Garrido, Javier Tato, and Aleix Gallimo drove from Castell de Castells in Valencia (Spain) to Almabtrieb, Germany, for the first race of the 2013 Eurotour. Despite a few misadventures on the road, they managed to get to the race on time – but not without first learning a lesson in auto mechanics!

Seismic flow rider Brian Lugbill coats the streets of Boulder, CO, with yellow 79a urethane ripped from his 75mm Landslides. From bustin’ 100ft (30m) slides to tearing 58mph (93kph) downhill, Lugbill shows just how versatile the Landslides can be. This freeriding speed demon is also rockin’ Seismic Tekton bearings and a Seismic rocker-kick topmount carbon prototype. Brand new Seismic deck line, coming soon!
