I just got a new skateboard and some ABEC 7 Bearings, but they suck so bad right now. they're not so bad when I'm riding it, but when I spin the wheels, they spin for 2 seconds, and then they stop. Please tell me what I can do!

Do nothing,the grease is new and stiff while cold and as you ride the grease or whatever heats up and liquidifes.

some thing you can do are ride a little while, put some wd-40 on them but that can cause dirt to accumalate, so dont let it sit. another thing you can do is get a strong air compressor tire pump and let them spin foe about 3 minutes eachtheyll go faster

pretty much all bearing are like that when you first get them. ride on it for a couple of days and they will spin for a long time when you spin them

all bearings are slow at first just skate on them and they should go faster. If they slow down more like in a few weeks don't use wd 40. Go to your local skate shop and ask for bones speed cream it like 5 bucks but that stuff really works.
