Armor Tip - Still - RalfBalf - May. 06, 2023
Still is a stamina armor tip that was originally released on Lightning Pandora Endless P8 Twist-Q Fusion-Q+Still-7'. The design consists of a wide bottom layer that has mirrored dynamic lines going into the center of the tip, and two small dots on opposite ends of each other, reminiscent to the two spheres on the Lightning QS blade. The peak of the tip has a cone-like shape with a small circular area that the main stadium contact point sprouts from. Like all Quaddrive and Quadstrike armor tips, Still has two prongs to attach with Quaddrive and Quadstrike performance tips.
At first glance, Still is comparable to Survive. Unlike Survive, Still has a significantly smaller surface area and the near lack of a sharp point, giving Still less stability and stamina properties, and having performance akin to Zephyr and Fusion Still's based on one's launch. When launched lightly or with weaker launchers, Still will stay in the center like most stamina performance tips and drivers. However, due to the shape of Still's contact point, Still will move along the tornado ridge when launched with significant force or with more powerful launchers, and can even retain a flower pattern for a short while with a sliding shoot. In theory, the round base of Still would grant combinations better Life After Death(LAD), but due to the size of armor tips in comparison to Quaddrive and Quadstrike forge discs, the forge disc makes contact first instead, meaning that all stamina combinations using Still will need to rely on the forge disc for better Life After Death, that of which is already poor.
Because of this, Still is recommended for collection purposes only.
