Defense is the classification of a Beyblade which battles by staying relatively still, unmoved by the opposing Beyblade's attacks. The purposes of defense types are to withstand heavy hits and to not be knocked out of the stadium. Generally, there are two main types of defense type customizations: ones that rely on weight and ones that rely on grip.

Weight

Generally, the heavier an object is the harder it is to move that object. An example of a defense customization that relies on weight is:

Additionally, more weight means higher spin rate.

Grip

Generally, the more grip (friction) an object has the harder it is to move that object. An example of a defense customization that relies on grip/friction is:

These type of defense customizations utilize gripped tips. The rubbery grip creates more friction between the beyblade and the stadium floor making it harder to be knocked around.
