About the rollerblading bit. I used to be stupid and was always like "Oh stupid fruitbooters, blah blah blah, I'm an idiot". The truth is that rollerblading is way more gnarly than scooters. I'm sorry to say, but it's true. They have tons of companies and sponsors, they actually make real videos (we have about 2 real scooter videos), they have magazines, and they shred way harder. There are less than 5 scooter videos that actually make me want to ride, whereas I can watch rollerblading videos and they make me want to go jump some gnarly gaps.

To stay at least a bit on topic, I do what Koen said, since I have my ceramic bearings I don't want to be hammering them and stuff.

I don't know if the Hyper Green Machines come in a 688 micro hub version but if they do and that's what you got then your bearings will never fit.

If the bearing looks like it is the right size though and it's just a little tight press it in.

a god way to put them in, is to get a socket, the same size as the rim of the bearing, and hammer is, it dosnt damage it. to get them out i just stick a screw driver in from the other side, and hit it.

i get a front axel my 2 good bearings and an old bearing and put a fron axel through one bearing then the spacer that goes between then the hub of the wheel then the other good bearing and then the shitty bearing and then tighten it up works perfectly no hititng needed

What i did:
put bearing on floor
put wheel over bearing aligned perfectly
pushdown on wheel or stand on wheel.

That how i got mine and my friends in, i have 24seven bearings though...

yea my bearing went in good and easy and so did them coming out
a nother way to do it:
put a cloth on the sides of your vice so you don't scratch you bearings/wheels if you don't want to
line 1 side or both sides up with the bearings and tighten the vice
once there in there good put the wheel on and go ride!
