OOB, Claw will be smoother and Ops will tip harder. At the same surface, they're pretty close.

I'll never say no to getting a Black Ops, but the Claw is mighty impressive. Claw also continues a bit more, due to the lower intermediate diff.

Would the Claw be similar to say a Hyroad Nano, or maybe more so a Rocketship? Might play around with the some 900 Global.

It's hard to say, the hyroads roll....flat out.
The HB has a bit more length to em, it's gotta be that tall assym core.

Reminds me of a weaker no rules....if that makes sense....

My HB is a perfect step down from a No rules pearl, I'd assume the solid is the same way..
