I know I am new to spin tops, but I can’t help drooling over the strummol8 tops. What would be the advantage of the Sofia vs. the guilia?

I’ve heard several people say the Sofia spins a little longer, I’ve never tested it that theory myself. The Sophia is a radical new shape designed with grinding tricks potential in mind. The all-Delrin Giulia is perhaps more durable.
