Performance Tip - LRF

Left Rubber Flat (LRF) is a Performance Tip released as part of Beyblade: Metal Fusion. It debuted with the release of the Ultimate Reshuffle Set L-Drago Ver. on November 20th, 2010.

Description
LRF is a variant of the RF Performance Tip and designed to be a mirror image of R²F. While the surface of R²F is shaped like a buzzsaw with six points facing in a clockwise direction, LRF's surface has the points facing counter-clockwise. These points, along with the nature of being a flat, rubber Bottom, have the effect of increasing the speed and friction of the Beyblade with the Stadium Floor. However, LRF suffers similar drawbacks to R²F in that it is more difficult to control than RF and loses Stamina more quickly due to its shape. Nonetheless, LRF is an exceptional Performance Tip for Attack Customizations in both the Standard and Limited Formats, and should definitely be considered when building an Attack Type if more speed in the beginning of the battle is desired. Although LRF’s name suggests that it should be used on a Left Spinning Beyblade, in reality it is interchangeable with RF and R²F and performs just as well on a Right Spinning Beyblade.

IMPORTANT: Mold Variations All TAKARA-TOMY and SonoKong releases of LRF feature a full plastic crossbar inside of the Tip to secure the rubber piece in place, while Hasbro's release of LRF only has a partial crossbar, similar to that of Hasbro's Metal Fury version of R²F. The TAKARA-TOMY and SonoKong version is preferred for competitive play because the full crossbar helps keep the Tip more stable during battle.

Use in Attack Customization LRF is best put to use in the Top-Tier Attack Customization MSF-H Wyvern Wyvern W145/H145/GB145 RF/R²F/LRF. This Customization is capable of Knocking Out nearly any opponent when used in conjunction with a proper Sliding Shoot.
