This article is about the Hasbro Beyblade. For the Blade Base, see Blade Base - Jumping Base.

Jumping Base is a Hasbro BB type icon attack Attack Type Beyblade released under the Spin Gear System and variant of Driger S. It is essentially Driger S with the Jumping Base Blade Base. The spring in the Blade Base allows the Bey to jump two to three times at the start of battle.

Attack Ring (AR): Tiger Defenser

Main article: Attack Ring - Tiger Defenser


Tiger Defenser is one of the most popular AR selections in Beyblade. It has great Stamina due to its round shape; there are very few points of contact on Tiger Defenser that can cause heavy recoil. It has great defense ability due to its small size, leading to higher spin velocity and therefore, higher defense. It also has some attack ability due to its rounded spikes and small Upper Attack slopes.

Use in Survival/Zombie Customization

Using Tiger Defenser, you can create a strong survival combo. This AR does not take many heavy hits in battle. Here is an example:

The small projections on Tiger Defenser can steal spin from the opponent. The round shape will not take recoil, so the Beyblade will have higher defense. However, if you want a Left-Spin survival combo with better defense ability, Galeon's War Lion is a better choice.

Use in Compact Customization

Because of Tiger Defenser's small size and high spin velocity, it is one of the most popular AR choices for compact combos. Here is an example:

  • AR: Tiger Defenser (Driger S)
  • WD: Ten Heavy
  • SG: Neo-Right SG Heavy Metal Core (Takara Metal Driger)
  • BB: Metal Change Base (Driger S)

As you can see, this Beyblade is not very different from an uncustomized Driger S. However, with just a few simple improvements, Driger S's strongest attributes can be exploited even further.

Availability in Hasbro Jumping Base

While Takara released Jumping Base as a stand-alone product, Hasbro released Jumping Base as a full Beyblade and gave it a recoloured Tiger Defenser AR. If you can't find Driger S, you can get Jumping Base for Tiger Defenser.


Weight Disk (WD): Eight Heavy

Main article: Weight Disk - Eight Heavy

As the name “Heavy” implies, the Heavy series of WDs is the heaviest available weight disk (including WDs not in the Six/Eight/Ten sided category). Due to the heavy weight and the compactness of that weight, the Heavy weight disks are often used for Compact type combos for the simple reason of increased RPM. When the weight of a Beyblade is focused towards the centre (as opposed to a Wide WD where it is focused around the perimeter), its RPM will increase. This weight is also often put to use in Defense oriented customs, with weight being the primary concern in that type. Ten Heavy is the heaviest out of all of the Heavy weight disks, and generally speaking, is chosen over Six and Eight Heavy when customizing.

Spin Gear (SG): Right SG

Main article: Spin Gear - Right SG

Right Spin Gears allow for right spin when used in tandem with Right-Spin Shooters. In a Right-Spin Spin Gear, two tabs (situated close to the right sides of the Spin Gear) would attach to the Right-Spin Shooter, allowing a Beyblade to be spun clockwise.

They have plastic casing surrounding a metal ring and gear which is placed into the Blade Base and held in place by base clips. The core (centre pieces) is not interchangeable in Standard Spin Gears. Different variations have now been released that feature weights, bearings and even an engine inside the Spin Gear.

Blade Base (BB): Jumping Base

Main article: Blade Base - Jumping Base

The BB has a special gimmick that uses a spring to make the Bey jump two to three times at the start of battle. 1 of 3 tips can be attached to change modes, and it comes with a ball, flat, and sharp tip. The Takara and Hasbro versions vary slightly with the design of the spring.

The Blade Base was also used in the anime as the signature part of Hopper.

Trivia

  • The Blade Base was only released separately by Takara, with Hasbro releasing Jumping Base as a whole Bey, with Jumping Base parts.
