It debuted with the release of the B-117 Starter [[Phoenix P4 10 Friction|Revive Phoenix 10 Friction]] on July 7th, 2018. ==Description== <onlyinclude>'''Friction''' features a wide ball shaped tip that sits at the standard height composed of '''P'''oly'''O'''xy'''M'''ethylene (POM) thermoplastic, akin to a combination of [[Performance Tip - Massive|Massive]] and [[Performance Tip - Yielding|Yielding]], surrounded by a ring of rubber, akin to [[Performance Tip - Atomic|Atomic]]'s free-spinning ring. In theory, the wider tip would increase a Beyblade's Defense by having greater surface area and friction, however in practice, '''Friction'''<nowiki/>'s low friction POM construction reduces much of the KO resistance given by the surface area of the ball. Like the tabs of other ball based Performance Tips for Defense, '''Friction'''<nowiki/>'s rubber ring is meant to act as brakes against KOs at the cost of Stamina by striking against the stadium floor, however, the rubber is situated so high up that it is incapable of reaching the stadium floor at all. While these features may imply that a '''Friction''' combination would be easy to KO, in reality the heavy weight of Cho-Z and SwitchStrike/God Layers and many Core Discs compensates for the POM construction and the static ball creates greater friction than a free-spinning ball, giving '''Friction''' greater KO resistance than [[Performance Tip - Atomic|Atomic]] or [[Driver - Orbit|Orbit]]. Furthermore, the low friction increases the Burst resistance of '''Friction'''-based Combinations. However, '''Friction''' performs poorly in Spin Equalization and Opposite-Spin Combinations as the Tip is very easily destabilized.</onlyinclude> ==Overall== '''Friction''' features greater KO resistance than [[Performance Tip - Atomic|Atomic]] or [[Performance Tip - Orbit|Orbit]] while having comparable Stamina due to the low friction POM plastic. However, '''Friction'''’s poor stability prevents it from outclassing the aforementioned parts, leaving it as a decent [[Performance Tip - Orbit|Orbit]] alternative instead. '''As such, Friction is a welcome addition to a blader’s collection.''' ==Products== ===Takara Tomy=== * B-117 [[Phoenix P4 10 Friction|Revive Phoenix 10 Friction]] * B-125 [[Random Booster Vol. 12 Dead Hades.11T.Z']] - 03: [[Hercules H4 Heavy Friction|Archer Hercules Heavy Friction]] * B-130 [[Random Booster Vol. 13 Air Knight.12E.Et]] - 02: [[Air Knight K4 11 Friction|Air Knight 11 Friction]] * B-140 [[Random Booster Vol. 15 Cosmo Valkyrie.11.Et Ten]] - 03: [[Bushin Dragon 7 Friction Retsu]] * B-00 [[Phoenix P4 10 Friction|Revive Phoenix 10 Friction]] (Silver Wing Ver.) * B-00 [[Phoenix P4 10 Friction|Revive Phoenix 10 Friction]] (Golden Wing Ver.) * B-00 [[Phoenix P4 10 Friction|Revive Phoenix 10 Friction]] (Blue Wing Ver.) ===Hasbro=== ==Gallery== ===Takara Tomy=== <gallery widths="130"> DriverFriction.png|Friction (Official Image) Friction (Silver Wing Ver).png|Friction (Silver Wing Ver) Friction (Golden Wing Ver).png|Friction (Golden Wing Ver) Friction (Blue Wing Ver).png|Friction (Blue Wing Ver) </gallery> ===Hasbro=== <gallery position="center" widths="130"> </gallery> ==Trivia== ==References== {{reflist}} {{Burst System Parts}} Templates used on the current version of this page: Template:, (view source) Template:And (view source) Template:Burst System Parts (view source) (protected)Template:Navbox (view source) Template:Part Infobox (view source) (protected)Template:Reflist (view source) Template:SlingShockNav (view source) Template:Translation (view source) Return to Performance Tip - Friction.
