A winder is the cord placed into the [[Shooters and Grips | shooter]], and must be pulled for a Beyblade to launch. There is many different colour and length variations that were produced over the years.
 
__TOC__
 
==Plastic==
 
===Winder===
 
This is the standard winder that usually is packaged with all [[Shooters and Grips | EZShooters (right spin)]]. It is fairly short and has a ring shape on the end where you can place your index finger.
 
  
===Dragon Winder===
 
The Dragon Winder is included with all of the earlier generation Dragoons. It is longer than the standard winder, which will increase the [[spin velocity]] of a Beyblade. Its handle is in the shape of a dragon, which allows players to grip two fingers onto it. Originally, the teeth of this winder were facing the left, but was eventually changed to face the right for the Neo Left EZShooters. Every player should own multiple copies of this winder; there is no downside to using it over the original winder.

===Neo-Dragon Winder===
 
The Neo-Dragon Winder was released by [[Takara]] with all of the later released Dragoons and [[Remote Control Beyblades | RC Beyblades]]. It is very similar in use compared to the Dragon Winder, with one notable difference; the handle. The handle of Neo-Dragon Winders is in the shape of a dragon like the Dragon Winder, except it is on a vertical angle. Many players consider this winder the best there is, but both the Dragon and the Neo-Dragon Winders are efficient. Every player should own multiple copies of this winder, or the Dragon Winder.
 
 
==HMS==
 
===G-Winder===
 
The G-Winder is the only winder that was produced for the [[HMS]] series. Its design is obviously derived from the Dragon Winder and unlike the [[Plastic Beyblade | plastic generation]] winders, all G-Winders are of the same length. The plastic on G-Winders is much more thick and reliable than the old winders, and is easier to straighten.
 
 
==Straightening Winders==
 
To keep your [[Shooters and Grips | shooters]] from getting worn down quickly, it is important that you straighten your winders. Simply bending the plastic with your hands will not get the job done. Here is the step-by-step process for straightening all winders:
 
 
*Fill up a sink with hot water (make sure you are able to put your hand in it)
 
*Drop the winder you wish to straighten into the water and leave it for 60 seconds or so.
 
*After 60 seconds, take out the winder.
 
*Run the winder under cold water, and using your hands, bend the winder a bit in the opposite direction it was originally pointed towards and then force it into a straight line while running it beneath the cold water.
 
*Once you are satisfied, dry off the winder.
 
 
Your winder should be a lot straighter now.
