World Beyblade Organization by Fighting Spirits Inc.

Face: Virgo
The Face depicts Virgo, the sixth astrological sign of the Zodiac.

Clear Wheel: Virgo
Weight: 2.8 grams

Virgo was first released in a translucent yellow colour. Virgo has a smooth, flowing design to emulate a woman's hair, and features two small notches on either side.

Metal Wheel: Earth
Weight: 33.1 grams

Earth has four thick, textured wings surrounding its perimeter, with each pair facing each other on a slight incline. The space created between the wings is quite small, and the resulting effect is the same of any Wheel that has no spaces, low recoil. Its smooth, circular design and low recoil make it one of the best, if not the best, Defense-oriented wheel currently available for competitive play. Earth Virgo GB145BS comes with the second mold of Earth.

IMPORTANT: Mold Variations

Earth has two different molds. The first mold was released in BB-47 Starter Earth Aquila 145WD, and the second in both the purple WBBA "Event Special" MF Earth Aquila 105HF/S, and SonoKong manufactured Earth Metal Wheels. The second mold addressed breaking problems that the original mold faced by modifying the inside of each of Earth's wings. The new mold is up to three grams heavier than the old mold (30-31 grams versus 33 grams on the new mold), which makes it significantly more effective for Defense customizations. Therefore, the new mold is the preferred choice for Defense customs using Earth, while the original mold would be the best for Stamina.

Use in Defense Customization
Earth can be utilized in the Defense customization MF Earth Bull GB145WB.

Use in Stamina Customization
Earth also has exceptional Stamina capabilities and can be utilized in the Stamina custom Earth Bull DF145SD.

Track: Gravity Bowl 145
Weight: 4.5 grams

GB145 is a wide, round track featuring two free moving metal balls. These balls, while spinning, move towards the outside of the track, causing some additional spin retaining force. Weighing in at 4.5 grams, GB145 is currently the second heaviest track available, and as such is extremely useful in Defense customizations. Because it lacks energy-absorbing free spinning wings, it is not as effective as C145 against low attackers such as Quetzalcoatl 90RF. However, GB145 is spectacular against higher attackers, such as MF Lightning LDrago CH120RF.

Use in Defense Customization
GB145 can be utilized in the Defense customization MF Earth Bull GB145WB.

Bottom: Ball Sharp
Weight: 1 gram

BS offers very little movement and as such gives no Attack potential. The pointed tip allows for very little friction between the Bottom and the stadium surface, which helps prevent the loss of spin velocity. BS has decent Stamina, but it experiences the balance issues that the S series bottoms share because its tip is so fine. Both D, WD and SD are better choices.

Use in Stamina Customization
If you don't have access to D, WD or SD, BS can be used to some degree of effectiveness in Stamina customs such as Virgo DF145BS.

Overall
Earth is a wheel with great Defense and Stamina, and GB145 is an extremely useful track for Defense as well. While BS leaves much to be desired, Earth and GB145 more than make up for it. Every Blader should own at least one of this Beyblade.

This looks good to go! There is some formatting errors, and a few things I want to note and expand upon, but you can go ahead and post this on the wiki first.

Personally, I think you should mention the use of GB145 in defence customisations against smash attack, and that GB145 should be rested when low attackers are in use.

There are also 1 or 2 grammatical errors, but that's just me being pedantic, and most would not notice them.

R145 is heaviest track now, so it would be great if you can change it into " GB145 is currently the second heaviest track available".

I think GB145 is the heaviest.

This. It needs to be mentioned in the article.

This is where GB145 shines.

Alright. As soon as I recover from this blinding headache, I'll edit the article and post it on the wiki. Just gotta find some Advil or something first.

Okay, it's uploaded. A few minor bloops, mostly dealing with the BeyBox. I couldn't find a picture of Earth Virgo to put in there. I also wasn't sure what BB number to put, so I just put BB-60 for the random Booster.

I uploaded the official picture. I think it is fine.

Um, shouldn't this go in the "New on Beywiki" box?

EDIT: Or are we waiting on gallery pictures or something?

I will add it once I get around to editing the article. Been so busy lately. Someone else is going to have to take pictures, as I don't own one.

I guess I'll take the pictures then. The problem is that my camera's not the greatest, and the stickers I've put on are starting to peel.

I'll take the pictures of Earth Virgo GB145BS [(top, side, 3/4 and bottom view)if you don't mind my oxidized Earth Wheel], GB145 (top and bottom view) and BS.
I will use pictures of lustrous Earth Metal Wheel from the Earth Aquila Article.

Haha... I just finished taking pictures too. But go ahead Climax, I'm sure your photos will turn out better than mine.

I've just replaced Daegor's images.
Also, in case you want to change it back, here's the original (Daegor's) images (in Wiki 'code' form):

Oooh, I was right. Much better. Good job, Climax.

Thanks.
Does your camera have the Macro function? Close up photos will be a lot clearer with Macro on.

Unfortunately not. I'm thinking on investing in a better camera soon, but right now, we're getting a bit off-topic.

Updated the GB145 section, added a note of it's original RBV4 exclusivity, and fixed a few other formatting errors.
