Yard' (ヤードダッシュ, Yādo Dasshu; Yard Dash) is a Performance Tip released by Takara Tomy as part of the Burst System as well as the Dynamite Battle Layer System and the Burst Ultimate Layer Series. It debuted in Japan with the release of the B-198 Random Booster Vol. 29 on May 28th, 2022.
Description
Yard', like its predecessor Yard, features a free-rotating ball tip surrounded by a wide ring. In theory, the ball tip would increase a Beyblade's Knock-Out (KO) Defense by having greater surface area and friction. Furthermore, the wide ring is meant to make contact with the Stadium floor when the Beyblade is struck, forcing it back upright and acting as brakes to prevent Knock-Outs. However, in practice the free-rotating nature of the ball reduces most of the Knock-Out Resistance given by the surface area of the ball and the diameter of the ball makes contact with the ring rare.
Unlike other ball based Performance Tips, Yard does not feature tabs around the tip as their purpose have been taken by the wide base. If launched hard, the greater surface area creates a semi-aggressive movement pattern early in the battle, bringing the Beyblade close to the Tornado Ridge. While the shape of the base can create Life-After-Death and may imply high Stamina and Spin-Equalization potential, the low placement of the base creates a high scrape risk and the lack of free rotation in the base nullifies Spin-Equalization potential.
Like other Dash Performance Tips, Yard' features a stronger spring lock, increasing the Performance Tip's Burst Resistance.
