Description of Zap

---

First released with the UX-14 Scorpio Spear 0-70 Zap Starter as part of the Xtreme Gear Sports Unique Line system on April 26th, 2025, Zap (or Z) is a Balance type Bit.

Zap features 16 Gears, similarly to Accel, and a small ball-shaped tip, similar to the one seen on Point. Therefore, the overall design of Z can be reminiscent of Level, but its performances and behavior are very different.

Zap “Gimmick”

---

Similarly to Point, Z can start Battle with agressive movements, and progressively adopt a more stationary behavior as the Battle goes on. Z is far more extreme than Point, having 16 gears instead of the usual 12. This results in higher velocity during Xtreme Dash attacks, although it also drains stamina a lot more than traditional Gears.

Its small protruding tip is meant to add stamina when velocity drops, thus acting like a mode change. Zap behaves like a fast attack type in the early stages of the Battle, then “switches” to a Defense/Stamina Mode in the second half of the Battle.

Performances

---

The large diameter of Zap creates high levels of friction with the stadium floor, thus making it easier for the combination to ride the X-Line and perform Xtreme Dash attacks. Players may feel the need to tilt their launchers forward when playing Zap, a simple technique called “Rush Shoot” or “Banked Shoot”.

If launched flat, the 16 Gears of Zap will create fast Xtreme Dash attacks, at the cost of a high self knock-out risk and huge stamina losses. Unlike Level, which can be tamed and controlled, Z is far more unpredictable. This Bit typically starts Battles with a fairly erratic behavior, often skipping the X-Line when launched too hard. Moreover, the Z usually ends Battles with a circular movement pattern, albeit with very little stamina left.

While Z is one of the most agressive Balance type Bits, it seems to lack stamina when compared to other Bits such as Point.

Final Thoughts

---

Having poor stamina as well as high self knock-out risk, Zap is a very risky Balance type Bit. The high self knock-out risk may even become frustrating, especially for beginners. As such, this option may not be used by competitive players.

Therefore, while not a must-have, Zap is a nice addition in any Beyblade X collection, as it is the most agressive Balance type Bit at the time of writing.
