Its a little rounded… I don’t really like it. The colors in my opinion are ugly. :-\

If you want to spend that much, for about $20-$30 more, get a Skyline, G5, or an eight8eight. SuperStar uf you’re up to it.

The VK isn’t exactly a small bearing California. The VK is lighter, narrower, has a smaller gap, has a different response system and a smaller bearing. The only thing they have in common is the diameter. Specs:

VK:  
Shape Butterfly / Wing  
Weight (g) 65.90  
Width (mm) 41.06  
Diameter (mm) 56.38  
Gap Width (mm) 3.26  
Bearing Size (Inside x Outside x Width) 5x10x4 mm  
Gap Type Fixed  
Stock Response System Kentaro Pad - Medium Sized

California:  
Shape Butterfly / Wing  
Weight (g) 68.70  
Width (mm) 42.18  
Diameter (mm) 56.38  
Gap Width (mm) 4.26  
Bearing Size (Inside x Outside x Width) .250 x .500 x .187 in  
Gap Type Fixed  
Stock Response System Silicone Sticker

It is lighter because it was not weighed with stacks. It is narrower because the Small Bearing is thinner the the standard C size. Same is true with the Gap.  
It is the exact same body except the response and bearing seat as the California…  
It is a small bearing California.  
Which, by the way, is a 401k without dials.

Doesn’t a 401sd have an H-Shape?
