A dude in the Philippines won GT championship with buster 5-60 quake in his deck but otherwise I think it’s one of those bits that is too niche/ outclassed by other bits to be used for comp.

Buster 7-60LR has been shown to be very strong and would def be more consistent and controlled vs quake

I just had the same happen to me while using shark as well. Kind of surprised since wolf isn’t really even my main go to punching bag

There’s a NorCal league for Beyblade X that’s pretty active with 1-2 tournaments a month. Not sure for the older formats tho

Won 3rd at a local 32 person tournament. First time even getting into top 8!

-Whale Wave 9-60LR
-Tyranno Beat 5-60F
-Phoenix Wing 1-60R

This combo performs terribly but I love the way it looks

My deck from today’s tournament. Went 3-3. Overall not too bad, Rod did very well and I like mail too but Garuda was definitely the weak link here

Wizard Rod 1-60TP
Knightmail 3-60L
Garuda 9-60HT

That’s a great bey to start with I would also recommend possibly getting the hasbro extreme battle set. It frequently goes on sale for as low as $20 and comes with the stadium, 2 beyblades and 2 launchers

Switched the sporty into winter mode and busted out the sheep skin covered seat

Tried to send you a dm but it says you can’t be messaged

I see the vision, if it got bumped up in weight with a new mold it has some potential to be comp viable

Hey I’d be interested in the black one in the back. Where in the world are you located?

A whole bunch of cool bikes popped up on marketplace right after I used the money from selling my last motorcycle to go towards being financially responsible smh

Just sold my sv650 an hour ago and already regretting it 😭

Looks like Hasbro has already started using the updated Phoenix Wing molds. The new molds come out to be about 0.5g-1g heavier than the old mold. You can see the differences comparing the circled areas. Hopefully this means updated molds and higher weight for more beyblades!

S tier deck

Nah you gotta make sure it works before giving it to him

Thanks! I love how versatile sportsters are, I had also considered a tracker style originally for my current sporty. If I had the means I would just have a sportster built for every single purpose/ Motorsport lol

Yeah weight is a huge part of what makes blade’s competitive. Not just the overall weight but also the inward/outward distribution, balance and blade shape. The lightest blades are sub 30g while the heaviest ones are pushing 39g to almost 39.5g. 10g difference is very noticeable when battling

I’d suggest keeping an eye out on the hasbro beyblade x stadium set. It sometimes goes down to $20 on Amazon and comes with a stadium, 2 beys and 2 launchers and both beys have good parts. Easiest way to get into the current gen imo

Any bike is a touring bike if you’re willing to ride it far enough. Throwback film pic to my old sporty chopper.

Do it. I got back into it in august and already have 20+ and 2 stadiums lol

I agree with this, the biggest difference between the s tier & b/c tiers is just consistency. Rhino horn is one of the lightest beys and considered one of the worst blades and yet it can sometimes get an over finish/burst on S tier Rod 9-60B. Can it do it consistently and reliably though? Not really

Going through the archives, here’s a clip from the first tournament I went to getting a nice over finish against a Rod using Dran Sword 5-60F. I’ve been dying to go to another tournament but there isn’t an active scene within an hour of me

I prefer beys and bricks but mostly bc I’m west coast and I get my orders faster

Hell yeah! I’ve also won a raffle for a bike and have been chasing another win and throwing away money on raffles ever since lol. Looks like it’ll be a fun project

I need to get back on my art grind. Here’s an older pointillism drawing I did from a frame from 1964’s Onibaba. I can’t even remember how much time this took
