G model Handle
Japan tekken player Mr “G” is Golden Lever user. Like most GL user, he love to tuning and do moding to his lever, he have strong big arms, so he put 45mm balltop he bought from Akibahara on his GL, he said it was good.
At first I saw it on Twitter, I have to admit it looks silly “No one use big Balltop before for Fighting Games”. When I visit Mastercup 2018, Mr “G” ask me to try his GL setup (with the big balltop of course). It blow my mind that it feels great, I feel comfortable to control the lever using bigger balltop, but 45mm is too big for my hand. When Mr “G” ask me to consider to make it from POM plastic since we already made battop using that material before and many user love it, and I have idea to provide it in various sizes. After back from Japan we start the prototype, and after couple months testing by Mr G, zachDVJ, Nests, and Yamasa Yuu (Yuu like the medium G battop and use it in TWT final), finally we have finish G Handle and excited to provide it to FGC starting EVO Japan 2020
left is standard handle size, middle is Medium, right is Big.
Handle is the first parts we touch, and the interface we interact to the lever, so it is necessary to find one that gives comfort. We know that every individual have different palm size, for most people standard handle size is ok and maybe can try Medium handle to get better grip. But for those who have big hand, they absolutely need bigger handle.
