Yeah most likely if you jump up that many it will be harder for you to land at first, you'll just have to get use to it and don't be scared. sure the board will fly out a couple of times but just work with it. and don't try to go as fast as you use to even though you will just don't give as hard of pushes that you use too.

first bearings i used was swiss bearings. atleast first i can remember, i can never tell a difference in what ABEC if any it is so it doesn't really matter to me. i could skate abec 1 for a month then move to 5 and not even notice it other then the board goes better

I started with the bones swiss precision(still use those type of bearings) bones aren't rated on abec
but if they were some of the bones bearings would be above abec 7, like the ceramics
