MVPRelay

Their oldest disc is an MVP Relay; they use it less now but it is a good hyzer-flip disc for tight lines in the woods.

KastaplastÄlva

Replaced a lost Tern with an Älva that doesn't fight back on flex shots with slight off-axis torque the way the Tern did, though when the angle is right it flies like a dream.

Latitude 64Rive

Doesn't have the arm to throw the Rive on hyzer, but on slight anhyzer it flies far and predictably, maybe 350–400 ft, and fights wind well.

InnovaLeopard3

Has always had a Leopard3 in their bag since they started; it is their comfort disc when they need a bit more turn than fade.

InnovaCaiman

Their Star Caiman is basically a wind-fighting overstable approach disc that doesn't want to fly far, a 5-speed that works more like a putter.

“Some molds I just really wanted to like because of hype / looks, the Trail for instance. Now its arguably my best”

InnovaToro

Finds the Toro more overstable than the Zone, between a Zone and Zone OS, with close hand feel; had they gotten a Toro first they probably wouldn't use a Zone.

“Tried so many 4 speeds and I hated them all until the Tempo came out. I will always bag one of those now.”

WestsideDestiny

Likes Westside: finds the Tursas and Warship underrated mids, and with wide-open space they can get the Destiny out past 430 ft.

“Nice I'm glad to see someone else likes Westside, tursa and warship are under rated mids, and if I have a wide open space I can get the Destiny out”

InnovaFox

Bought a Star Fox on a whim, and the first time they threw it in fieldwork they stood there open-mouthed and got it; now they have it in nearly every plastic.

A new player with a low arm speed who picked up a Halo Gold Diamond that throws like a dream; it is one of the few discs they can get close to 200 ft.

InnovaLeopard

Their Champion Leopard was their go-to fairway for months when they started; as they gained power it changed from a stable line to a disc they could flip.

“I got a Champion Leopard a few years ago when I was first getting into the sport. Ended up taking that disc to multiple different states and using it as”

AxiomProxy

Getting the Proxy was like magic and led them to try the Atom and Watt; they now use them for holes of 200 ft or less and they always work as intended.

“It was like magic when I first got the Proxy from axiom discs. it made me try the Atom and Watt. now I use them for holes 200ft”

DiscraftBuzzz SS

Finds they throw the Buzzz SS better than faster discs: a slower disc suits their skill, and they get it 90 m on a good day.

Thought Space AthleticsConstruct

Lost their Trail in water at a tournament, and their backup TSA Construct with the same numbers performed better, with more glide and control.

“Yeah me too. The A2 is more overstable than any other approach disc I've tried. A2 feels like a slower Splice imo.”

InnovaJay

Finds the Champion Jay a true control midrange: thrown hard it goes about 260 ft and fades consistently, works on low line drives, and makes 175 ft low hyzer approaches criminally easy; very torque resistant, though the grip is only okay.

“The Jay is a "true midrange." To me that means that the Jay is more of a control disc. Something you can throw hard and trust to not go very”

WestsideMaiden

Picked up a Matty O Tournament-X Maiden on a whim and it is the most laser-straight disc they've thrown: very glidey, no turn, and a baby fade if thrown slightly nose up.

InnovaTeeBird

Their money disc is the Champion Teebird: forehand and backhand flex, 100 ft spike hyzers, and the classic neutral flight to reliable fade; at 5000 ft elevation it is their go-to outside upshot range.

Their 4x Jolly Champion Thunderbird goes slight flip to slight turn out past 380 ft with little thought, fits narrow gaps and follows a hyzer without rolling out.

StreamlineStabilizer

The Stabilizer has taken the stress off short approaches and scrambles: perfect stability to flex or throw forehand, and it feels more connected to their brain than anything else.

AxiomParadox

With back and arm problems limiting their forehand, the Paradox is one they can throw backhand for reliable anhyzers and turnovers.

WestsideHarp

Their beat-in VIP Harp thrown flat drifts slowly right and lands flat every time, and on a flip-up hyzer it goes straight and lands flat.

KastaplastReko

The Reko is their current putter in K1 Hard; they don't like the feel of K3 and find plain K1 too tacky for a putter, though great for drivers.

Putts with the Deputy: super shallow and glidey, so they don't have to change their aim point much from 15 to 50 ft.

“Deputy is what I use. Super shallow and glidey which I like since I don’t have to change my aim point much from 15’-50’”

Putts with the Atom: super flat and shallow; deeper putters like Aviars, Aeros, Magnets and Lunas would occasionally catch on their hand on release.

MVPStasis

Finds the Stasis pretty dependable, but it actively tries to fall out of the air, which probably rules it out of a Zone-style slot.

“Stasis is pretty dependable, but the fact that it is actively trying to fall out of the air probably disqualifies it from the slot.”

DiscmaniaInstinct

Liked the Neo Instinct's plastic and feel, but it was a touch too understable at their ~450 ft power, right on the edge of turning, so it was really inconsistent for them.

Says the Lift is not really a straight 9-speed: it is an easy turnover or hyzer-flip disc that holds up to torque.

“You should try throwing the lift. It’s not really a “straight” 9 speed. But that’s the point. You can have overlap on paper just looking at numbers but you throw”

DiscraftCicada

The Cicada is one of their favourite discs, especially a swirly ESP Ledgestone run.

“Cicada is one of my favorite discs, particularly the swirly esp Ledgestone run from 2(?) years”

KastaplastSvea

Returned to disc golf after 10 years, drives about 75–80 m RHBH, and says the Svea has got them out of more trouble than anything: they use it for fairway throws that turn moderately right and glide down sweeping right bends, getting 55–60 m from it.

“But what has gotten me out of more trouble than a white flag on a battle field is the Kastaplast Svea. It’s a 5/6/-1/0 and I use it for all”

InnovaRollo

Finds the Wombat3 more stable than its numbers, the Arachnid straight but easy to hyzer flip or turn, the Fox turns on any full throw and the Rollo is silly understable.

“My experience has been that the W3 is more stable than the numbers. The Arachnid is straight but easy to hyzer flip or get turn out of, the Fox wants”

InnovaRoc3

Their first Roc3 and first Duo disc, the Rainers Duo Roc3, has been a pleasure to throw: a solid disc for stable approaches.

“It has been a pleasure to throw Rainers Duo Roc3. Its my first Roc3 and Duo mold. Like the effect on Duo flight! Its a solid disc for stable approaches”

KastaplastVass

After Kastaplast Gryms went out of production and started flipping too much for them, switched to the Vass for a little more speed and gets right up to 400 ft.

“Switched to Vass for a little more speed getting me right up to 400ft”

Latitude 64Savior

Has two Saviors in different plastics that they say easily take 3–5 strokes off per round, used for forehand and backhand anhyzer shots.

“I have two Saviors in different plastics that easily take 3-5 strokes off per round for me that I use for both forehand and backhand anhyzer shots, and a jawbreaker”

InnovaBeast

Suggests the Beast as another Innova 10-speed with a very different hand feel from the Gorgon; in their experience it is a little less glidey and a little less flippy than the Gorgon.

“Maybe check out a Beast? It’s another Innova 10 speed, but with a very different hand feel than the Gorgon. In my experience it’s a little less glidey and a”

InnovaOrc

Recommends a Star Orc with the weight tuned so it can take speed without turning over or fading too hard; with a 350 ft max and 320 ft average they can rip a 168 g Orc fairly straight.

“A Star Orc with weight fine tuned where you can put some speed on it where it doesn't turn over too much, but doesn't fade too hard. I'm like 350”

Latitude 64Strive

Recommends the Strive, saying it really goes and that its -1 turn rating makes it sound more stable than it is: thrown flat they get a decent S-curve.

“the Strive might work really well for you! That thing just GOES! -1 on turn is absolutely rating it more stable than it actually is. I'll throw it flat and get a decent S curve out of”

KastaplastImpa

Throws the Impa in tailwinds, a DD in calm to light headwinds and a DD3 for forehands or strong headwinds; in the right conditions they can hyzer-flip the Impa for max distance.

“My current distance drivers are Kastaplast Impa if I have a tailwind, a Discmania DD for no wind to slight headwind, and a Discmania DD3 for forehands or strong headwinds.”

StreamlineTrace

Finds the Plasma Trace straighter than a Halo Star Wraith with less fade; a Fission Defy returned to them after a year is now more understable than their Fission Waves.

“Plasma Trace is straighter than Halo Star Wraith. Not as much fade. I didn’t have my Fission Defy for very long before loosing it. It was just recently returned to”

MVPDimension

Bags a Neutron Dimension, which is pretty stable with good hand feel for them, and also a Wave, which might be too flippy for the original poster.

MVPInertia

Their Proton Inertia turns more than they'd like, but their glow Eclipse one is perfect: straight for a long time with a pushing fade, holds an anhyzer for 375+ ft and gives big hyzer flips for 400+ ft.

WestsideBear

Recommends the Bear for a straight 300 ft: a speed 8 that can handle power and spin without turning over much, and they can throw theirs on a baby S-turn.

“If you want a straight 300, go with a Bear. Its speed 8, but it can handle power and spin without turning over much. I can throw mine on a baby”

Finds the Entropy very comfortable, with Electron plastic beating in to the perfect stability and staying reliable in almost any conditions.

“Entropy is similarly incredibly comfortable while the electron plastic beats in to the perfect stability and is incredibly reliable in pretty much any condition.”

KastaplastJärn

Uses a Berg and Järn approach combo and loves having both, because there are many shots the Berg can't make where they want something longer and more overstable.

AxiomInsanity

Hated their Valkyrie at first but came around to it; of the neutral-to-understable MVP-family 9-speeds they've thrown (Virus, Inertia, Impulse), the Insanity is the one that clicked.

“I've thrown some other neutral/understable MVP 9 speeds (Virus, Inertia, Impulse) and the Insanity is the one that just clicked for me.”

AxiomBokeh

Had two near aces in their first round with the Bokeh; the only disc they think actually made them a better player.

Finds it so easy to hit lines with the Watt, and when it hits a tree it doesn't kick far and usually just drops.

KastaplastÄlva

Notes that K1 Grind plastic is more understable: their K1 Älva bombs while their Grind Älva rolls.

“Keep in the mind, the K1 Grind plastic is more understable for those 2 molds. My K1 Alva bombs, my Grind Alva rolls.”

Latitude 64Brave

Loves their Royal Grand Brave: with a noodle arm it isn't very flippy for them, flying mostly neutral and straight, and they consistently throw it 280–300 ft.

Latitude 64Fuse

The Fuse clicked for them: they started with it in beginner plastic, liked it so much they got it in Gold, and it feels great thrown forehand.

“For me it's the Latitude 64 Fuse. Started with it in beginner plastic, and I liked it so much I got it in the gold plastic. I'll probably get it”

InnovaLeopard3

With about 330 ft golf power, finds Halo Leopard3s very straight for most of the flight after the initial flip up, always with a reliable fade, developing some left-right movement over time.

Calls Sidewinders great, like the Mamba's little brother for long lazy turns, but one backup from a very domey Star run is the most finicky, unpredictable disc they've thrown.

The Pure was their first putter and they loved it for a long time, but found it tricky for slightly longer putts because it didn't glide well.

The Hex was the first disc they bought after a starter pack and it clicked instantly; they've lost a couple and always bought another because the hand feel gives the release they want.
