GTX has a larger flare towards the rim. Also a sharper rim area. OG is almost undersized. ![16387974088628949947447916596661](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/6/c/c/6ccd4f66ece27b226173cb158552700ee229b14e.jpeg) ![16387974342797163138766236072351](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/f/1/c/f1c38ac4c553f2ff3bb2d3dc9beef4c51d41d5f1.jpeg) Check out how thin the ring edge is in the GTX ![16387974893835281680615251327815](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/1/f/6/1f699241161c1532d1bcac769f90894eec753f15.jpeg) ---

Note that The OG (in any other color) is a little smaller. The red is Yoshihiro Abe’s version, so it’s size is a predecessor to what was used on the YoshicudaX. ---

IMHO The OG is better suited for chopsticks play and has a very weight centered feel. The GTX lends itself more to competition style (riskier tricks, bigger catch zone) and has a exceptionally floaty feel. I use each for 1a & 5a. More 1a on the GTX and 5a on the OG. ---

It’s also my understanding that they are based off of the eXit8’s original too. So same general family. ![16389049452602376285147119273588](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/c/7/c/c7caefd87bf4fe3edbb3fc02f78d1819a7a57d96.jpeg) ---

> [@Mystik](#): > > and has a exceptionally floaty feel. It does! Reminds me of my General Yo M10. Decided to keep it and try to move the Grasshopper GTX for this reason. ---
