This should be in the Q&A topic.

If your winders keep breaking, it's probably because you aren't pulling straight.


RE: My ripcords keep breaking too easily - G - May. 18, 2008

The long ones or the short ones? You just need to pull the cord straighter when launching.


RE: My ripcords keep breaking too easily - Blue - May. 18, 2008

can you post pictures?

I know what u mean, I think you should get a customize launcher and buy the spring support part for a straighter launch.

All of the above, and (it's most likely illegal, but if you're playng with your friends and they don't mind) a dip of superglue can help.

We don't really approve of this philosophy here. I also can't see that helping much. Just learn to pull straight, it will make you a better Blader.

Ok, sure. My style of blading has always been based around making what you've got last, cuz I had very little money and no allowance, beyblades were(are) expensive, as well as the nearest shop to get them from being 40 minutes away so visits had to revolve around where my parents were going shopping at the time xD If anyone needs any do-it-yourself beyblade fixes them PM me, other than that Brad is right again Tongue_out


RE: My ripcords keep breaking too easily - Bey Brad - May. 18, 2008

But ... it's not hard to pull straight. You just have to be conscious of it. I know a lot of pretty bad Bladers just pull as strong as they can with no consideration of angle, movement, or stability, and this is a good way to not only lose matches, but break your stuff.


RE: My ripcords keep breaking too easily - Blue - May. 19, 2008

but really is there any harm in reinforcing a winder? doing so gives you no real advantage
I have very good method. I would like to share it. But if the community diagrees then I won't,..

Why does everything have to turn into a guilt trip with you?

Just wondering, because it seems like anytime anyone points out a flaw in one of your posts you go off on this tangent about how hard it was for you to get beyblades in the first place.

You're kicking a dead horse dude, and its really starting to get on my nerves. :\

You can go ahead and post it, but I don't see dipping a winder in glue to be a good idea.


RE: My ripcords keep breaking too easily - Blue - May. 19, 2008

trust me. I'm more sophisticated than that Wink


RE: My ripcords keep breaking too easily - GRB1 - May. 19, 2008

When you bought the blade, did the box have a "TT Hongli" logo on it by any chance? Or perhaps a "New Boy" logo?

If so, you've got a fake blade. The ripcords that come with those don't really last.

Must be the hot-water-straightening thing then.

If you must have a straight ripcord. Then do what I do. I simply use my fingers to bend the thing section after section in a direction opposite to the curve, starting from the base (right at the handle).


RE: My ripcords keep breaking too easily - Raikun - May. 29, 2008

Don't leave them in the water for too long.

Pull straight.


Believe it or not, a long, sustained and straight pull will provide more kinetic energy than a ridiculously fast and bent pull.
