It's funny that the belts that came with the original 1st run of XXX-Ss were that identical color of blue.

The new blue belt prototype was really free... almost like a shaft car free. The black belt prototypes were more free than the production as well, but they had to beef them up because of snapping issues. Hopefully the prototype blue belts were already beefed up running that free

We dont know for sure if it will be released, the HD belt works good still. Like I said, before the black belt was beefed up it spun very free too. We can hope though
