 While its tip is simply a slightly wider Semi Flat, it is mounted on an imposing base with a linear row of 8 blades facing left circling its circumference, as well as eight ridges below them that surround the tip. The blades are shaped similarly to LW160's wings, however they are less spaced. This tip should not be used on [[Attack]] customs because of its lack of speed and mobility. While at first the blades seemingly help produce a downward force effect, they are too small to make any difference in Stamina. These blades never touch the Stadium floor. Instead, the lower eight ridges do, and while they do help the Beyblade regain balance, the effect they produce is negligible. In Zero-G Stadiums, combinations using BSF are extremely difficult to KO by Zero-G Attack and the tip has the ability to wobble for extended periods of time and sometimes regain its balance, allowing it to outspin opponents. When in left rotation, it is even harder to sway out of the stadium. It also can be used in semi-aggressive Balance customs as well as wobbling Stamina combinations for the traditional stadiums. Overall, BSF is a very useful bottom for both the Zero-G and regular BeyStadiums.

 With three heads, Dragooon strongly resembles most L-Drago Wheels, especially since it's a left-spin Chrome Wheel. Two heads circle almost half of its circumference in a lateral way, while one head is actually flat on top, offering relief slopes upwards only by its lower jaw and teeth. Two webbed wings also cover the rest of the design, with claws encircling the hole where the orb from the Crystal Wheel gets inserted. The sides of the Dragooon Chrome Wheel are therefore composed of the top of one dragon head, the sides of two other heads, the curved structures of the wings' fingers, and the straight ends of the membrane between them. In general, Dragooon consequently has four sections of similar size and shape.
-===Mold Variation===
+===IMPORTANT: Mold Variation===
 It should be noted that there are currently two molds of this Chrome Wheel, which causes a slight difference in the part's weight that is physically visible underneath one of the dragon heads. The mold variation seems to have been distributed exclusively from TAKARA-TOMY, as Dragooons from both Hasbro and Sonokong have been found to be the heavier mold. In one mold, there are two indentations underneath the head, but in the other mold, there are no indentations, leaving the underside of the head completely filled in and therefore heavier. This mold variation does cause a difference of weight of about 1 gram, with lighter Dragooons weighing about 29 grams and heavier ones weighing 30-31 grams. Despite this, the mold variation doesn't affect performance significantly. In the comparison images below, the heavier mold is on the right.

 Dragooon's heavy weight and its ability to spin left also makes it useful in the customizations MSF/MSF-H Dragooon/Gargole/Killerken/Revizer Dragooon SA165EWD, which utilizes Dragooon's Spin Stealing abilities with SA165's increased weight distribution, round shape that helps it to roll after toppling, and EWD's high amounts of Precession.
