Skate Maintenance Routine

I have two pairs of skates, and I’m noticing sounds, feelings and wobbles. My new skate wheels are starting to get some dirt on them and my cannonball feels a little funky.

Curious:

How often do you rotate YOUR wheels?
Do you check your skates before or after each session? What are you looking for?
Are there signs that you need to clean or lube your bearings? How long does this process usually take?
Do you plan ahead when it’s time clean to ensure you’re ready to roll when it’s time?
What tools do you swear by/consider must have? (I own an Y tool, but considering a bearing puller/cleaning set)
