2216 new this week, from players and from around the web.
Has a very puddle-top Pro D Focus that is the only disc they never use, because they dislike its feel.
“I have a Pro-D Focus. Super puddle top. It's the only disc I have that I do not use ever. I just don't like the”
Used a Glide in their first few years; it was the one disc they could get to stay right for a while, like a shorter Leopard.
“I used a Glide during my first few years playing and it was the one disc I could get to stay right for a little”
Uses an Axiom Tempo as a Zone-like approach disc with a shallower rim.
“I personally use an Axiom Tempo think or it as a zone clone with a”
Finds the Fossil has no glide and is slightly more stable than a Zone.
“Fossil has no glide and slightly more stable than a zone. I”
With max-weight ESP Force and Punisher, finds the Force pretty similar to a Destroyer.
“From my experience with a Force and Punisher both max weight and both esp, the force is pretty similar to a destroyer. In a headwind”
Loves the shallow feel of the Fierce but wants something more stable.
“I love the shallow feel of the Fierce but will look for something more stable”
Their R2 Spin flies nearly the same as a Fierce and is a bit less flippy than Electron ones.
“My R2 Spin is nearly the same for me as the Fierce and a bit less flippy than the ones”
Uses the Drone for spike-hyzer scramble shots: a dense disc that sticks well and dumps hard left for upshot angles.
“I use the Drone for Hyzer Spike scramble shots. Very dense disc and tends to stick pretty well because of that. And as others have said it dumps left really”
Bags a slightly more stable Grace alongside the Drive, and prefers the Drive every time on forehand.
“I also bag a grace which I’m finding more stable (slightly) - but often tough to chose between which of those to throw on backhand.”
Bags both a Crank and the SS version; great for forehand and a solid distance driver.
“I bag both a Crank and it's SS variant. Great for forehand and a solid distance driver. If you're still”
Has a first-run Z Cigarra that's hard to get to fully turn without a little anhyzer.
“I only have the first run z Cigarra and it's pretty hard for me to get mine to full turn”
A 275 ft thrower whose 2024 UV Z Glo Worlds Cicada flies less stable than their regular Z Cicada.
“my 2024 UV Z Glo Worlds Cicada flies less stable than my Z Cicada. I purchased a misprint of it”
Their main overstable throwing putter is a Chris Dickerson Z Challenger OS.
“My main OS throwing putter is a Chris Dickerson Z Challenger OS, but I only have one and they are”
Really happy with a new Pro D Challenger, but it beats in and loses stability too quickly.
“I'm really happy with a new Pro-D Challenger, but they beat in and lose their stability too quickly, so I'm hoping for something with a”
Leans heavily on Meteors when not throwing into a headwind, including a beat-up Z FLX Meteor bagged for about four years and a more stable Z one.
“I lean on the Meteors pretty heavy when I'm not throwing into a headwind (I carry a really beat-up Z Flx Meteor that I've bagged for about 4 years and”
Bags an ESP Buzzz SS but uses it less than their Meteor, mainly for slower turning or hyzer-flip shots.
“I bag a Buzzz SS (ESP) as well but don't use it quite as much; I use it for slower turning or hyzer flip shots.”
Bags both: the Detour turns earlier in the flight than the Buzzz SS and fades softly, so they use it for turnovers and left-to-right movement.
“I usually bag both. For me, the Detour turns earlier in the flight than the Buzz SS. The Detour also fades softly. I throw the Detour for turn over anhyzer”
After trying about a dozen putters, the Banger raised their confidence as soon as it entered the bag: a real straight shooter inside the circle.
“A Banger was my most recent putter purchase, after having tried about a dozen models over the past year I've been playing. Almost as soon as it entered my bag,”
Their Splice feels great for forehands because it is so flat, but they don't like how overstable it is.
“I have a Splice which feels great, I love how flat it is for the forehand, but I don't like how iverstable it is. Any”
Highly recommends the Spore as a catch disc: softer than the Glitch and Sonic but torque resistant, easy to throw dead straight and won't flip.
“I highly recommend the Spore for a catch disc, it's softer than the glitch and sonic but still has torque resistance. Easy to throw dead straight and won't flip over.”
Their Big Z Anax is the most uncomfortable mold they own; they switched to PDs and Romans, which feel much better.
“my Anax is the most uncomfortable mold I own. I switched to PDs/Romans and find them very fun to throw and much better in the”
The Raptor is their go-to forehand fairway driver, easy to control with low glide, and they use it backhand on windy days or for skips.
“My go-to forehand fairway driver. Super easy to control/manipulate the flight with the low glide factor. Backhand, I use it on strong windy days, or if I need a solid”
Finds the TD a lot more stable than the Gorgon; they recently swapped their TD for a beat-up Star Beast for more distance and reliability.
“TD is more stable than the Gorgon, by a lot. I’ve bagged both, but recently took out my TD for a beat up star beast as I have found I”
Played a round with the Tactic in place of their favourite Harp, comparing it with the Zone, Harp and Pig they've thrown.
“Played a round with the Tactic taking the place of my favorite Harp. I have thrown Zones, Harps, and Pigs but mainly throw the Harp”
Their Vanguard flies dead straight, not flippy, with a nice fade that doesn't crash vertically.
“The Vanguard for me flies dead straight, not flippy, and then has a nice fade without crashing vertically. So Ideally,”
Their first putter was an APX and they loved it enough to buy three Jawbreaker ones.
“My first putter was an APX, loved it and bought 3 jawbreakers. Then I discovered”
Throws their Big Z Archer for big downhill shots that need to hold an anhyzer forever; it may be the flippiest disc they own.
“I only throw it every so often, when I have a big downhill shot that needs to hold an anhyzer forever. Could be the flippiest disc I own. I especially”
The Ares never worked for them: stiff, flat, without much glide, so they sold both; Q-Line DD3s outperform it nearly every time.
“Never worked for me so I sold both I had. Felt quite stiff and flat, didn't really glide all that much. Q-Line DD3s just outperform”
Their Athena is beaten in and no longer flies how they need, and they're not a fan of the Discraft plastic.
“Currently have an Athena, but it’s beat in and doesn’t do the thing anymore. And I’m not a fan of”
Bags both a Z Buzzz and a Hex; the Buzzz is a bit more stable and more reliable in wind, and they love both.
“My Z Buzzz is just a bit more stable and more reliable in the wind so I can justify it.”
Bought a Z Buzzz OS to fill a gap between their Drones and Buzzzes and found it nearly as overstable as the Drone.
“I bought a Z Buzzz OS to fill a gap between my Drones and my Buzzzes, and I found that the Buzzz OS was nearly”
Switched from Aviars to P1s and immediately saw more consistency and control, likely because it's shallower and the shoulder fits their small hand.
“Switched from Aviars to P1’s and it immediately saw more consistency and felt more in control, most likely since it’s shallower and the shoulder fits my small hand better. P1’s”
Has earlier C-Line Notions and finds that thrown slightly nose up, as putters usually are, the disc doesn't turn much.
“I have previous C-Line releases of the Notion. The pros definitely can get turn on this disc if they throw nose down. HOWEVER, it's typical to throw putters slightly nose”
Finds the Origin a small-diameter mid that is easy to hold, hyzer-flips to a mid-flight turn without burning, and finds its stability as it slows; more like 5/6/-2.5/1.
“For me the Origin is a small diameter mid that is easy to hold, hyzer flips to a mid-flight turn with not too much effort, but doesn’t burn and given”
Finds the Method really good: not as dumpy as its numbers suggest, with a nice gentle fade, and it takes a decent anhyzer while still fading back.
“I think the Method is really good and not as dumpy overstable as the numbers would suggest. It's got a nice, gentle fade for an overstable mid. It also takes”
Finds the Mutant definitely more overstable than a Buzzz OS, a disc that will never ever turn over.
“The mutant is definitely more overstable. Mutant is a disc you can throw if you want it to never ever turn over on you. Ever.”
Throws S-Line and G-Line P2s: very stable but not hooky like a Harp, hard to turn over, and goes far and straight without ever finishing right.
“P2 is very stable, but not hooky like a harp. It's hard to turn over and can be thrown pretty far, pretty straight. I've never had it finish to the”
Bought five P2s but the release felt off, so they switched to the flat-top, beaded P3x, which feels a lot better.
“I had the same feelings about p2’s. Bought 5 to practice with and it just felt off on the release. I switched to the P3x and it feels a lot”
Has thrown an S-Line P1x all summer and loves it; unlike Aviars, P2s and the Nova, it feels right at home in their hand.
“I’ve been throwing an S line P1x all summer and loving it. I never really liked the feel of aviars and P2s, and I hated the feel of the nova”
Bags both: the Tesla flies fairly straight while the PD is very beefy and comes out of any amount of anhyzer.
“I'm bagging both and the Tesla flies fairly straight and the PD is very beefy, I can put it on any amount of anny and”
Finds the Streamline Boost a good replacement for an overstable PD, paired with a Trail.
“The streamline boost is a good replacement for an overstable PD. I pair it with a trail and feel like”
Finds the PD2 amazing: they can't throw it well backhand, but on a 45-degree forehand anhyzer it turns all the way back and hyzers out.
“The PD2 is a pretty amazing mold. I don't have the juice to throw it very well BH but I can throw it on a 45 degree FH anhyzer and”
Found the Paradigm very similar to their Enigmas.
“The Paradigm was very similar to my Enigmas, so probably similar stability to a Grace.”
Their Q-Line FD is incredibly stable, going only slightly less far than their distance drivers, and handles big hyzers and big turnovers.
“my q-line FD is incredibly stable that might by why you struggle with it. For me it goes slightly less far then my distance drivers”
Finds the Rainmaker's rim bottom too sharp for their putting stroke compared with the Hope.
“Rainmaker is too sharp for me on that count compared to the Hope. Could probably”
Threw a friend's Rockstar and it flew like a super beat-in Mamba, rolling immediately.
“I threw a friend's Rockstar and it flew like a super beat in mamba. Immediately rolled. The active line is”
Calls the Logic a great throwing putter.
“Logic. Great throwing putter. I’ve said it once, I’ll say”
Their Champion Thunderbird flies a bit too straight and their FD3 is just a beefcake.
“My champ thunderbird is flying a little bit too straight and the FD3 is just a beefcake. Looking for something”
Just picked up an MVP Terra that fills their old FD3 slot: good backhand and forehand, less stable than a Firebird but stable enough not to turn over.
“Just picked up the new MVP terra and it fills the slot for me that my old FD3 was in before I lost it. Good for both forehand and backs.”
Bought a Neo Function for rollers and it became their favourite disc and maybe their farthest: not as understable as expected, a hyzer-flip machine that goes far.
“Recently bought a Neo Discmania Function with some tournament winnings to try and add a rollers to the bag, but it actually become my fav disc to throw and maybe”
Bags both an Instinct and an Essence, likes them both and they are their go-to discs.
“I currently bag both an Instinct and Essence and like them both, and they are my go to discs. I am looking for something I’m”
Bags the S-Line FD, Neo Essence and Instinct; the S-Line FD flies straight with a gentle fade, while the Essence is for hyzer flips.
“I bag them all and S-FD flies straight and has a gentle fade for me. I use essence for hyzerflips.”
Never got along with the deep P2 and now putts with Links: good in hand, pretty straight with little fade, not very glidey, dropping when out of spin.
“I never got along with the p2 as it was too deep for me. I now put with Links and like it. Feels good in my hand. It’s pretty straight,”
Found a Maestro that was the worst disc they had thrown, but after inverting its dome with boiling water it became a great disc.
“I found a Maestro the other day. Worst disc I have ever thrown. Then... I inverted the dome with some boiling water and it's actually a great disc.”
Uses the Origin, MD1, Glacier and MD5, with the MD1 and MD5 getting the most use.
“Of those, the MD1 and MD5 get most use.”
Finds the MD3 holds up great with a very mild finish, and the C-Line plastic finishes harder than the S-Line.
“it's got a little more integrity and holds up great with a very mild finish. The C-Line plastic finishes harder than the S-Line. If you”
Field-tested two Q-Line Premier MD3s, a 173 g pop-top and a 177 g slightly domey one, against Hexes, a Reactor and a C-Line MD3.
“Just finished field testing 2x Q-line Premier MD3s that I recently got from the Discmania Store. * White 173g poptop domey * White 177g slightly domey Discs I compared both”
Their Majesty and glow Shryke land within feet of each other: thrown flat and hard they run right without rolling, and on hyzer they flip flat with a gentle finish.
“I got a glow Shryke and a Majesty same day. They land within feet of each other and fly the exact same. Thrown flat and hard they run right pretty”
The Magician is one of their favourite discs, with great grip in base plastic, filling a gap between their mids and fairways; the premium version is more stable in wind.
“Magician is one of my favorite discs and has a great grip in base plastic. Fits a nice gap between my usual mids and fairways. Not as comfortable with the”
Loves the feel and flight of the Discmania-made MD5, the centre of their bag: it handles powering up or down, backhand and forehand, all kinds of shapes and almost any wind.
“I love the feel and flight of the Discmania made MD5, it's the center of my bag and to me there is no other disc that can take powering up”
Prefers the MD4 because flat ones are easier to find, and recommends Metal Flake MD4s as super flat and amazingly reliable.
“MD4 - it’s easier to find flat MD4s than MD3s and I’ve found that some MD3s can be just a little too straight and overlap with my Buzzzes. If I”
Their premium-plastic Mentor flew far more stable than its numbers, more like 11/4/0/3, with no turn at all.
“I was hoping for more turn, but got none at all. Threw it vs a brand new DDx C-line (LOVE”
Their Neutron Wrath is far more overstable than their Construct, comparable to a Champion Firebird, and they couldn't get it to flip at all.
“i threw it this weekend, it's way more OS than my Construct. I can best compare it to my Champ Firebird, which is a disc so OS I can't bag”
The Servo is their go-to dead-straight fairway, which they lean on hard in the woods.
“The Servo is my go-to dead straight fairway. I lean on it hard in the woods. The volt is use”
Finds the Volt more overstable than its numbers suggest, pretty much a meathook.
“the volt is more OS than the numbers suggest IMO. It is pretty meathook. Could”
After a few throws with a 350 ft max, their Trance flew like an 8/5/0/1: it wouldn't turn but was very straight when cranked, not quite what they wanted.
“Only got a few throws in with my Trance last night but for my arm speed, I would call it a 8/5/0/1. Couldn't get it to turn right but it”
Loves the Vanish over the Tern: the Tern flips too much if their angle is slightly off, while the Vanish gives a little turn but flies straight as an arrow.
“Its also why I love the Vanish vs Tern. Tern will flip on me too much if my angle is off by just a bit. Vanish will give me a”
A 400 ft thrower for whom a new Catalyst is a max-distance bomber for a few months, then needs more and more hyzer as it changes; the Vanish was already halfway there.
“To me the Catalyst is a max distance bomber for the first few months of its life. I can throw about 400 and on a big rip with a new”
Bought a stack of Jets, Vanishes and Plasma Waves for distance rollers; the Jet is slightly more understable, with more turn and less fade, like a beat-in Trace.
“Recently I have been wanting to practice distance rollers so I bought a small stack of MVP understable speed 11: Jet, Vanish, and Wave. Therefore these are pretty new versions”
A 300 ft thrower who bags two SE Viruses: a beat-in one holds a turned line and fades softly, while a new 175 g one flies straight with a gentle fade and is very consistent.
“I bag 2 SE Viruses. One beat in that I got used. I don’t know the weight. And a 175g new one. The beat one will hold a turned line”
Throws their Wave a lot; powered down on anhyzer it turns over and still gives a reliable fade at the end.
“I throw my Wave a lot. The Catalyst is very similar to the Wave but faster if you want something that turns over less easily. The Catalyst also has a”
Finds the final-run Cloud Breakers flippy, the opposite of what they expected, flying more like a beat-in DD3.
“They flippy, kind’ve the exact opposite you’d expect out of a cloudbreaker. More like a beat in DD3 as opposed to the overstable DD3s they”
Of a Wraith, Scorch and DD, the DD suits them best by far, consistently reaching 330 ft without gassing it, though it only gives a stand-up flight with fade.
“Of the three the DD by far jives the best with me. I’m getting 330’ pretty consistently without completely gassing it. However the only flight I’m getting is a stand”
Finds the new DD1 flies quite similarly to the original DD.
“the new DD1 is quite similar flight in my experience. That was the one that was supposed to replacing the”
After four rounds: the C-Line DD3 is the most stable, fights wind well and still pushes far, while the Swirly S-Line DD3 is their favourite forehand distance driver, reliable but more workable.
“C line dd3 is the most stable, fights wind really well but pushes forward for good distance Swirly s line dd3 is probably my favorite forehand distance driver I've ever”
Loves the Enigma and bags four, though even the most stable one is a touch too straight for what they want.
“I love the Enigma I bag 4 of them, but the most stable one is just a touch too straight for what I want. I'm”
Finds the Color Glow Drop a decent amount more overstable than a Tempo with comparable glide and distance, a great single replacement for a glow Toro and Tempo.
“I agree with other assessments about the color glow Drop, it is more OS than a Tempo by a decent amount but the glide and resultant distance is comparable. If”
Their Essence has a nice unexpected fade and flies like a longer FD.
“The Essence on the other hand has a nice fade which I wasn’t expecting. It’s a longer FD for me”
Finds the Panic very overstable and bags it on big open courses because they can trust it completely to come out of any anhyzer; it also flies very far.
“Panic is hella overstable and the nitro is also hella over stable. I bag a panic on bigger open courses cause I can trust it 1000% to come out of”
Bags Neutron and Fission Rhythms and prefers them over the Drift, finding the Rhythm more stable.
“I bag a 2 Rhythms (neutron/fission) and prefer them over the Drift.”
Electron Soft Pixels felt and putted like beat-in Classic Burst EMac Judges for them, pressing in well under thumb pressure.
“The Electron Soft Pixels have felt and putted similar to any beat Classic Burst EMac Judges. The Soft flight plate height is offset by how well it presses in with”
Ordered a Watt for fun and it went straight into the bag; it feels like a cross between an Envy and a Glitch.
“The Watt is GOATed and went in my bag almost immediately. The Pixel, like you, I hate the hand feel.”
Putted with Pixels for months, then picked up a Cosmic Electron Atom and after fewer than 10 throws is never going back.
“Randomly picked up a Comsic Electron Atom for the hell of it. Threw that less than 10 times, and I am never going back. I”
Usually throws low-glide approach discs but is drawn to the Pitch: so straight, works on every angle, and at 160 g it stops quickly.
“But I’m finding myself drawn to the opposite end of glide with the Pitch. I’ve leaned to grip it now, with my forefinger doing most of the work on the”
Their Neutron Paradox reliably turns and finishes right at 200 ft, and powered down it flies straight for 150 ft on tight wooded holes.
“My Neutron Paradox reliably turns and finishes right at 200’. I will sometimes power down on the same disc and get a straight flight for 150’ on tight wooded holes.”
Recently got a flat 157 g Axiom Insanity that hooks left every time when thrown hyzer or flat.
“I recently got an Axiom Insanity, and if I throw it hyzer or flat, it just hooks left every time. It's very flat, with a”
Loves their Prism Plasma Pyro; without a fast arm it still gets decent distance for how overstable it is.
“I have a Prism Plasma Pyro that I love. I Don't have a super fast arm, but it gets decent distance for how OS it”
The Proxy is their favourite putter, with a 90 ft longest make, and they also use it as an approach disc for anything under 250 ft.
“My personal favorite putter is the Proxy. Ive hit 90ft longest with many in the 20-30 ft range. Also use it as an approach disc for anything under 250ft.”
Loves throwing the Envy as a driving putter: great feel, takes lots of power and goes far, though a little too stable at lower power.
“I love throwing the Envy as a driving putter; it feels great in the hand, can take lots of power, and goes far. However, it's a little more stable than”
Has a preflight Axiom Tantrum with an extremely domey pop top, the domiest they've seen across any brand.
“I've got a "patent pending" (preflight) Axiom Tantrum that is/has a stuper domey poptop. Probably the domey-est poptop ive ever seen across any other brand. It makes my preflight poptop”
A 400–425 ft thrower who finds the Time-Lapse noticeably more stable than an S-Line DD3; their grey stock one is close to a new Star Destroyer and the purple a bit flippier.
“Noticeable more stable than an S-Line DD3. I got a purple and a grey stock stamp. The grey is close to a new Star Destroyer I tested against and the”
Reaches for the Trace in strong headwinds: stable enough to fight the wind but not so overstable they can't get a proper flight, unlike the Time-Lapse.
“I go to the Trace if there is too much head wind. Same flight numbers as a Grace/Wraith. Stable enough to fight the wind but not so OS like the”
Their used Neutron Reactor flies just like their beaten Proton Soft Tempo, maybe 30 ft farther, while their Eclipse Reactor is a little more stable.
“my neutron reactor (which I bought used) flies exactly the same as my my beat to shit proton soft tempo, just maybe 30 feet farther. my eclipse reactor is a”
Can't get their Axiom Thrill past 250 ft: it stretches about 100 ft before dive-bombing right on backhand.
“it stretches out about 100' before it starts to dive bomb right on a backhand. Forehand goes to about 150' before the massive meat hook”
Their Tenacity is easily the furthest-flying disc they've thrown and they love it for max-distance shots.
“My Tenacity is easily the furthest flying disc I've thrown and I love it for max distance shots but I'm looking for something with similar”
Has never bagged a Firebird because they fell in love with how the Fireball feels on forehands.
“Never bagged a Firebird. Would probably give it a try if I the fireball didn't exist, since I just absolutely fell in love with how it feels on forehands.”
Likes the Mayhem a lot, but it always fades back for them, flying like a turning Dimension; it is quite new so they hope it beats in.
“Mayhem: fades back always. I like this disc a lot, but it's like a turning dimension for me currently. Quite a new disc as well so hoping to beat the”
Bought a Tales of Terror Hex on a whim after five Buzzzes and is smitten; it is becoming their main midrange and even a driver on some holes.
“on a whim I boughtna Tales of Terror Hex from this year and I'm fucking smitten. Its fastely becoming my main midrange and even driving disc on certain holes.”
Finds the MVP Matrix a little more stable and a little less glidey than the Axiom Hex.
“In my experience, it is definitely a little more stable and a little less glidey than the Axiom Hex. The numbers are 5 4 -1”
Finds a flat-top Justice all beef: on a 90-degree mando their problem is keeping it straight long enough before it dumps around the corner, as it only goes left RHBH.
“Flat top Justice is all beef. There is a 90° mando on a local course and my biggest problem is keeping the Justice on a straight line long enough before”
Bags an A2 in their very overstable slot after trying a friend's: reliably overstable and flexes even at low speed, though it tends to skip.
“I bag an A2 in this slot. Never tried prodigy before it, but I tried a buddy’s and loved it. Reliably overstable and flexes even at low speed.”
Finds the A-line's slim profile underrated; a glow A5 eventually beat out the Envys they loved.
“Slim profile of their A line is underrated imo. I had a glow A5 eventually beat out the envy(s) I was loving”
The A2 is their under-250 ft workhorse and the A3 is for longer lines and forehands; they find flat-top A3s the best forehand approach discs available.
“The A2 is my under 250 workhorse, and the A3 is for slightly longer lines and forehands. The flattop A3s are the best forehand approach discs you can”
Uses a Tempo for many approaches but the Anvil brings the beef: more overstable than a Zone or Tempo.
“Anvil. I use tempo for a lot of approaches but the anvil really brings the beef. More overstable than zone”
Uses an Innova Caiman from 150–300 ft with about 450 ft of power: it feels like a 4-speed, the low glide almost guarantees a dump, and they've never burned it over even in intense headwinds.
“I have used an Innova Caiman in this slot (5.5 | 2 | 0 | 4 I think.) Don’t let the 5.5 speed scare you. It feels like a 4”
Uses both the Tempo, great for touch forehands, and the Balance, which they reach for in any wind.
“Try the Axiom Balance. I use both, and the Tempo is great for some touch forehands, but any wind, and I'm using the Balance.”
Finds the Berg slow, unbothered by wind, and tends to land flat so it doesn't skip or roll; it felt weird until they tried it forehand, and now they use it constantly.
“I'm a bit shocked nobody has mentioned the Berg. It is slow, doesn't really care about wind, and the best part is that it will tend to land flat instead”
Testing a K1 Soft Berg against a first-run K1 Berg X, finds the Berg X fades the same but is slightly more resistant to high-speed turn, as the numbers suggest.
“They fade exactly the same as a regular Berg but are slightly more resistant to high speed turn, exactly like the numbers suggest. This is from testing a”
Uses a Deflector for super-overstable scramble and skip shots within 225–250 ft.
“I personally use a deflector for super overstable scramble shots or skip shots within 225'-250'.”
Bags a Zone OS with their Tempo; after trying Toros, Zones and others, it is the only one they've actually liked.
“Zone os is the one I bag with my tempo. I've tried toros, zones, a frag, a stego and a few others but zone os”
Finds the Gator a perfect complement to their beat-in Pigs: it stands up to wind, gives more side-to-side movement for flex shots, and a little more skip.
“For me the Gator is a perfect compliment to a straighter approach. My pigs can do tighter, straighter lines and power down really well. My Gator stands up to wind”
Recommends the Bard: shallower than a Harp, slightly more overstable, and perfect for 200 ft shots that never turn over.
“get a Bard and thank me later. shallower than a harp, slightly more over stable, and perfect for 200ft shots that never”
Loves R-Pro Pigs but finds the Star Pig stays stable much longer.
“Though I love r-pro pigs, they may not stay stable long enough for you. THANKFULLY Innova has realized the Pig has fans and released the”
Pulled a Sockibomb Felon out of a pond and it is quickly becoming their favourite disc for 275–325 ft overstable shots.
“9) Sockibomb Felon. (I pulled this thing out of a pond and it is quickly becoming my favorite disc, but it is more for 275-325”
Replaced their Zone OS with a Swarm: shallower, a touch faster and less stable, far more throwable, and it gets utility shots done.
“Swarm. I replaced my zone OS with it. It’s shallower, a touch faster, and a touch less stable. Way more throwable and gets the job done for those”
The Rhyno was their wind fighter for decades.
“Entropy does it pretty well. Rhyno was my wind fighter for decades. Range is doing”
Has 40+ Roc3s, mostly DX plus McGlows, rotated for 10–15 years; DX RocX3s beat in nicely and stay at new DX Roc3 stability much longer.
“For me it's the Roc3. Don't like domey discs. But I have 40+ Roc3's, most of them in DX, maybe 15 McGlow's (best Roc3 imo) and some in Star plastic.”
Thinks the Roc mold beats in nicely: it starts a little overstable, beats in dead straight, and theirs now finishes right RHBH with nice glide.
“I think the Roc mold is just well suited to beating in nice. Starts a little OS, beats in dead straight, and now, mines my only disc that will finish”
Would pick a 150 g Opto Air River for any course: they can do anything with it.
“I hate to say it but a very light weight River. 150g opto-air River. I can do anything with that disc. I genuinely think I”
Picks the Proton MVP Ion: better hand feel than an Envy and flies equally far on a frozen rope.
“MVP Ion, proton plastic. People like the envy cuz of the holy shot but the Ion has a better handfeel and flies equally far on”
Chose a Fission Tesla for a doubles one-disc challenge and their team went -18.
“Doubles ones disc challenge and I chose a fission Tesla. My partner and I went -18 so I’d say it’s”
The Grace is a dead-straight bomber at their arm speed with enough overstability not to turn, finishing with a small fade; it lands within 10 ft of 300 ft every time.
“Right now? The Grace. Just a dead straight bomber for my arm speed, but with just enough overstability to where it won't turn over and go right at all, and”
The EMac Truth has taken their number-one spot for a one-disc round.
“Ahhhh depends for what! eMac Truth has taken my #1 spot. Glow Hex for the”
Has kept an old starter-pack Valkyrie for about 15 years as their fix-it disc: from bad spots it weaves 100–150 ft through trees and ends up by the basket.
“The old school Valkyrie, that came in the innova starter pack some 15 years or so ago. Had it ever since. It is insane how crazy of a hammer though”
Has had their Fuse since starting; nothing else they've thrown is so dead straight with zero finish either way.
“Fuse. Had it since I first started in April of 24, and if I was forced to keep one disc and replace the rest, it would be it.”
Their beat-up Corvette is only controllable without wind or with a tailwind, but when it rips it rips hard; bagged five years, alternating glory and disaster.
“I have a beat to shit Corvette that I can basically only control with no wind or maybe a tailwind... but man when it rips, it rips hard. Its alternating”
Finds the Lots an excellent straight-stable 9-speed and one of the most reliable discs in their bag for a long time.
“Lots Haven't seen it mentioned yet but its is an excellent straight/stable 9 speed. It's been one of the most reliable discs in my bag”
Putts with a K3 Hard Reko; their K1 Rekos feel awesome until the faintest moisture shows up.
“My main putter (K3 hard). I have a lot of k1 Reko that feel awesome..until the faintest bit of moisture shows up. I’m not a chalk-bag guy so that’s part”
Plays Discmania and Innova but finds the Malm a great straighter control driver.
“I am Discmania + Innova for my whole bag, but the Malm is a great straighter control driver. The Kaxe”
Finds the Göte a fairly straight 4-speed they trust to put down a tight lane at 150–200 ft every time.
“The GOTE is not a driver, it’s a pretty straight 4 speed. I was just saying it’s trustworthy because I know if I need to put it straight down a”
Has six aces with the Reko X; of nearly all Kasta molds, the Reko X, Reko, Falk and Järn have stayed in their bag long-term.
“Reko X - 6 aces and counting! I’ve tried almost all of Kasta’s molds and the ones that have made the bag long term up against other brands are -”
Their K1 Soft old-tool Kaxe is a workhorse overstable fairway with a panning fade that doesn't burn into the ground, ideal for shaping around late obstacles.
“K1 Soft old-tool KAXE. Workhorse overstable fairway. Panning fade that doesn't just burn to the ground. It is *the* disc I use when there's a”
Uses a K1 Järn for overstable approach shots and forehands.
“K1 Jarn for Overstable approach shots and forehands. I putt”
Finds the Lots and Falk an amazing combo: the Falk is consistent and predictable with its turn, and the Lots has less turn and more stability.
“Lots/Falk is an amazing combo. The falk is consistent and predictable with it's turn - for me - which is why I choose it over other discs. The”
Just getting into Kasta and loves the K1 Stig: very nice hand feel and it goes quite far for a 6-speed.
“I've just gotten started with Kasta, but I really love the Stig. I have it in K1 Line and it's just got such a nice hand feel, and goes quite”
Finds the Stål better than a Firebird for them.
“Stal is better than a Firebird for me.”
Their favourite distance bomber is the Älva; they love the Järn's dependable overstability.
“My favorite distance bomber is the Alva. The Malm is a nice OS fairway similar to a PD. Love the Jarn for its dependable Overstability.”
Finds the Idog their perfect FD-like disc: straight to slightly understable but still fading hard, so it works in headwind; the Malm is like a PD with a reliable fade.
“Idog is my perfect FD like disc straight to slightly understable but still fades hard so you can actually throw it in headwind. Malm is like PD flies for the”
The Rask hasn't left their bag in five years: super fast, unique double rim, super overstable but not Tilt overstable, a great scramble or heavy-wind disc.
“Rask. Super fast, unique double rim, super overstable but not tilt overstable, great scramble or heavy wind disc, hasn't left my bag since I got one 5 years ago. I”
Finds the Lots more overstable than expected, and the Impa fantastic with lower arm strength, possibly going further with less effort despite its speed.
“Lots is more overstable than you'd think so id say go with a Falk but even with the high speed rating the Impa is fantastic with lower arm strength and”
The Svea is a staple understable mid: it holds the turn and glides for days.
“Another staple in my bag is the SVEA for an understable mid. It holds the turn and glides for days”
Really likes the Krut: not nearly as overstable as intended, it flies like a beat-in Destroyer out of the gate, though some colours are beefy.

Found the TL3 better than the Firebird for learning forehand.
“Love my firebird but I found TL3 better for learning on. Until your speed gets”
Their Royal Rage FD2 is their favourite forehand disc; no other disc matches its mold feel and stability.
“A fellow man of culture! FD2 royal rage is my favorite forehand disc. No other disc I've found comes close to matching the mold feel”
Finds the Turbulence the most slept-on disc: it feels right, is cheap in Neutron, and is breaking in to a flat flight with a strong overstable finish.
“Turbulence has to be most slept on disc. It just feels right and is like $12 for neutron palstic. Great stability and mine is starting to break in to a”
Finds the Runway more overstable than a Pyro but not as beefy as a Deflector.
“If you like the Pyro and Deflector, try out a Streamline Runway. To me it’s more overstable than a Pyro, but not as crazy beef”
Their Axiom Crave flies like an arrow forehand.
“Axiom Crave flies like an F’n arrow for me FH as well.”
Throws the Shryke forehand for an S-curve bomb when they have field to work with.
“Shryke for an S curve bomb where I have field to work with and don't care if it ends up”
Their gummy Harp is the one disc whose loss would hurt their game most: buttery smooth forehand approach shots.
“Westside gummy Harp. It's the one disc that if I lost it my whole game would suffer immensely. Buttery smooth forehand approach shots!”
The Westside Adder is their all-time favourite forehand disc.
“13 speed: Westside adder (all-time favorite for forhand)”
The Longbowman is their biggest workhorse: quite straight with a dependable fade, won't turn over, can flex, but is far less overstable and dumpy than a Firebird.
“Out of these I’d say the Longbowman is my biggest workhorse. Flies quite straight with a dependable fade, doesn’t turn over, can do a flex-line, but isn’t nearly as overatable”
Wants a rounded bottom rim edge that doesn't scrape their skin on forehand, and the Westside Bear has been perfect.
“I have this thing where i want the bottom edge of the rim to be a little rounded so it dont scrape against the skin… Therefore the Bear from Westside”
The MVP Signal was the first disc they ever threw a good forehand with and they often go back to it.
“Slower speed, MVP Signal was the first disc I ever got a good forehand out of and I frequently go”
Their I-Dye Sidewinder is one of their favourite sidearm discs: fun and satisfying to watch flip and go.
“My idye Sidewinder is one of my favorite disc to side arm , it is such a fun disc and so satisfying to watch it”
Uses the Firebird mainly for forehand flex shots: it doesn't turn and fights out of anhyzer.
“That’s point of the the Firebird. It doesn’t turn and will fight out of anny. I really only use it for forehand”
Finds the Rive fairly overstable but quick to beat in: after a few rounds it gets early turn and mid-to-late fade for a long S-shaped forehand.
“The Rive is pretty OS but beats in fairly quickly. After a few rounds it gets that early turn and mid to late flight fade for a desirable long distance”
The Bounty is their favourite flippy backhand mid, but after about three years they still can't throw it forehand.
“DD bounty. It's my favorite flippy mid for a backhand, but I can't throw that thing fh to save my life. I'll grab a meteor”
Pretty solid with touchy discs forehand but could never get a Mako3 to fly well.
“I’m pretty solid with touchy discs forehand but for some reason I could never get a Mako3 to fly well. It’s been a few years”
Their Neutron Craves flip much like their Neutron Trail: the Crave is their 350–370 ft disc and the Trail their 400–450 ft disc.
“Trail. My Neutron craves both flip very similarly to my Neutron Trail. Depends on the plastic though since proton is more stable. Both fill the same shot but crave is”
Their R2 Inertia flies almost exactly like their beat-in Crave but adds 20–30 ft and a bit more stability at the end.
“I have an R2 Inertia that flies almost exactly like my beat in Crave but adds about 20-30 feet around the same armspeed. Adds a”
Got a couple of prototype Aspects and finds them almost identical to a new Hummingbird Tesla, with maybe a slightly higher parting line, and they fly fantastic.
“Snagged a couple of the prototype runs of the Aspect from OTB. Compared it to a new Hummingbird Tesla and it's almost identical. Maybe the tiniest bit higher on the”
Thought the Bokeh was overhyped until they threw one, and it kicked the Craves out of their bag.
“I thought the same until I threw one. It kicked the craves out of my bag. The Crave walked so the Bokeh could run. FYI”
Had a domey old Excite that was a great bomber for a sub-120 m thrower but, like most fast flippy drivers, became hard to control at higher speeds.
“I had one of those domey old Excites and it was a great bomber for a sub-120m thrower, but like most fast & flippy drivers, became hard to control when”
Finds the Delirium a nasty fast Destroyer-ish option, like a slightly more stable Dimension.
“Delirium is nasty for a fast , destroyer ish option, it's like a slightly more stable dimension. Lightweight Defy and”
Every Defy they've bought has been very flat, less glidey and more stable than their Wraiths.
“I haven’t bought a new Defy in at least three years but all of them have been very flat and less glidey and more stable than my wraiths.”
Finds D and Jawbreaker Focus putters a bit understable for their putting stroke.
“generally the D and JB Focus has some under stability that I don't throw well as a putting putter. It's not a wizard. 🤷♂️”
Has bagged the Glide since its release, and the Paradox is the first disc that might replace it.
“I’ve been bagging the Glide since it was released and the Paradox seems like the 1st disc that might have”
Uses a Tempo in the slot between Buzzz and Pyro: straighter and longer than a Pyro, like a faster Zone with a subtle fade.
“Tempo is what I use in that slot; its a little straighter (and longer) than a Pyro. Its basically a faster Zone, so its nice for that subtle fade as”
Has a Fossil but hasn't figured out what it's good for; it has almost no glide.
“Have a fossil too but havent figured out what its good for? has like no”
Tested a large batch of Forces against Destroyers and found Forces perform better for them at the overstable end of distance drivers.
“I've been testing a large batch of Forces to see how they measure up to Destroyers and found that for the overstable end of the”
Putts with Fierces and doesn't find them especially shallow compared with Ringers or Maidens.
“I putt with fierces, and don't find them particularly shallow compared to ringers or maidens.”
Has used an R2 Neutron Spin and a Big Z Fierce; the Spin is flippier and a little deeper, and more fun to throw because of how much it turns.
“I have bought and used both in the last six months. The Spin I have is in R2 Neutron and I bought a Big Z Fierce. The Spin is flippier”
Finds the Drone very overstable, likely more than an Anvil, feeling more like a driver than a mid.
“The drone is very overstable, likely even more than your Anvil. It feels more like”
Finds the swirly Z Tour Series Drive awesome, especially on forehand, a really nice option in the Wraith slot.
“The swirly Z Tour Series run is awesome especially on forehand. I like the Drive it’s a really nice option in that Wraith slot”

“Firebird, Cigarra, zone gt and a pa 3 is my four disc forehand bag. I had a lot of fun playing these last round. I don't see the Cigarra mentioned”
Bags a 2024 Ledgestone Cicada and loves it: perfect for 350 ft hyzer flips, and thrown flat it never dumps over.
“I bag a 2024 Chess.com Ledgestone Cicada and absolutely love it. It's perfect for those 350' hyzer flips and if I'm throwing it flat, it never wants to dump over”
Finds the Challenger a fine disc that flies like any stable putter, though deeper than they like and Pro D beats in fast.
“Challenger is a fine disc. It's deeper than I like, but it flies like any other stable putter. I will say that from my experience,”
A RHBH thrower with no forehand who relies heavily on an ESP Meteor for 275–300 ft turnover lines that finish right with no fade.
“I throw RHBH and have no real forehand shot, so I rely heavily on the Meteor (ESP) in particular for 275-300 ft turnover lines that need to finish right with”
Throws a Buzzz and a Buzzz SS all the time; the SS comes out for powered-down shorter shots and anhyzers that fight back a bit.
“I throw a Buzzz and a Buzzz SS all the time. The SS gets pulled out for shorter shots that I have to power down because the regular will give”
Just adding a forehand, the Detour is one of the few discs that goes as far as their backhand: on hyzer it jumps up and cruises.
“I just recently started to add a FH to my game. The Detour is one of the few discs I can get to go as”
Has about 20 Banger GTs at home and a couple in the bag at all times.
“I have about 20 of these at the house, and a couple in the bag”
Finds the Splice even flatter and a bit more overstable than the Felon; mainly a utility disc for their arm.
“They feel very similar in the hand. The Splice is even flatter than the Felon and a bit more overstable. I don’t have the biggest”
Their beat-in Anax is definitely more stable than their new I-Blend Roman.
“I have a beat in ANAX and a new I Blend Roman. My Anax is more stable for sure. My”
Their first-run Z Raptor is very overstable like a Firebird, while a 2019 Tour Series ESP flies dead straight about 325 ft once beaten in, then skips with a flat fade.
“I have Raptors in different plastics, the Z is a fist run and pretty comparable to the firebird, very overstable, fades hard. The ESP is a 2019 Tour Series, and”
Their S-Line TD flew straight with fade for them.
“while the S-Line TD was straight with fade for me, I could”
Has used the APX since 1999 and finds ElitePro and ESP versions a little taller than Swirly D and Jawbreaker, so better for throwing than putting.
“I have used an APX since '99, and I've found the ElitePro and ESP to have a little more height to them compared to the swirly D and jawbreaker plastics.”
Bags the Archer as a fairway driver; it was one of the first discs they could turn over and stays as a utility disc.
“I bag an Archer, but I treat it as a fairway driver. It was one of the first discs I could turn over, and it's still in the bag as”
Loves the Ares as one of the best-feeling drivers on the market, like a more consistent first-run Captain's Thrasher, and bags it with a Force.
“I love it. To me it’s one of the better feeling drivers on the market. Flies like a more consistent 1st run Captain’s Thrasher. The Z Colorshift Zeus 2.0 run”
Finds the ESP Athena slightly more stable than a Teebird.
“The ESP is slightly more stable than a Teebird but you can’t”
Loves everything Buzzz and can manipulate Buzzzes for turnovers, hyzer flips and straight shots, but wishes for a slot between the Buzzz and Buzzz OS.
“I love everything Buzzz, I just wish I wouldn’t have to cycle a Buzzz OS to fill that overstable but still controllable Buzzz slot. I find I can manipulate different”
Their first-run Buzzz OS turned out more overstable than a fresh Z Drone and flies nothing like their Champion Roc3s.
“Turns out the Buzzz was MORE OS than the fresh Z Drone I've been throwing. My Buzzz OS is FAF, not sure if they all”
Having thrown both, finds the Avenger SS a true flippy disc that holds a turnover and makes a good roller, unlike the Thrasher.
“Now having thrown both, I don’t feel like they’re all that similar: the SS is a true flippy disc, it’ll hold that turnover and makes a good roller. The Thrasher”
Bought a new P1 and finds it feels like a shallower P2.
“The P1 just feels like a shallower P2, and I was told”
Loves the Origin so much they own about four, while the wider-diameter Fox wasn't similar enough for them.
“Man, I LOVE my origin, but do not like the fox. The fox is very wide diameter! So, it has a very different flip point! Again, I own like 4”
Loves the Neo Method and uses a beat-in Hard Exo Method for their hyzer-flip mid slot, since Exo is less stable and beats in faster.
“I love the Neo Method, and I actually use a beat in Hard Exo Method for that hyzer flip mid slot, it's already a bit less stable out of the”
Tried a Rat, a Drone and their Mutant, which is so stable it hooks out early and dives quickly.
“Tried a Rat, then a drone and then my Mutant and it is so stable that it was ripping out”
Finds the S-Line P2 more overstable than the D-Line, with just enough fade to keep it straight when thrown correctly.
“S-Line P2 is more overstable than D-Line, and that 1 /2fade is enough to keep it straight with such a low speed... if thrown correctly,”
Their P1x is slightly understable, and none of their Champion, R-Pro or KC Aviars fly like it.
“My P1x is slightly understable. I'll see if I can find a classic Avair or nova. My Champion Avair, R-pro Avair and Kc Avair doesn't”
Their C-Line PD is one of the most reliable discs in their bag and they can't see it ever leaving.
“I have a C-line PD and it’s one of the most reliable discs in my bag. I can’t see it”
A recent favourite is the Neutron Boost: they feared it after an OTB run burned over, but stock runs are very workable and it slotted in after a couple of rounds.
“A recent favorite is my Neutron Boost (overstable 9 speed)…I feared using it because the earlier OTB run for the Aussie tour just burned over so hard. The stock runs…so”
A 400–450 ft thrower whose Sky Stone PD2 is certified beef that doesn't go much past 330 ft.
“The Sky Stone is certified beef, doesn’t go much past 330 for”
Found the Paradigm more stable than they expected.
“Agree the Paradigm was more stable than I was expecting,”
Finds the Q-Line FD came out more overstable than the S-Line FD; it glides very well but needs a bit more speed.
“It's probably because Q-line FD came out more overstable than for instance S-line FD. It does glide very well, it just needs a bit more speed. If you can hit”
Has owned both and found the Rainmaker felt noticeably less juicy than the P2.
“I’ve owned both. rainmaker felt noticeably less juicy to me. P2 is”
Switched from Aviars to the Logic, which feels better in their hand, and has used it as their main putter for two years.

Picked up a barely-thrown Doom Stone FD3 expecting it to be super overstable, but it wasn't overstable enough for that slot.
“I haven’t thrown other FD3s, but I picked up a Doom Stone from the used bin the other week, barely thrown. I expected it to be super overstable, but it”

“I also use a Function as a hyzerflip Gap-hitter, the Essence as a long fairway with a tiny fade and the DD for max Distance”
Their Neo Forge Instinct flies like a GStar Teebird, much less stable than their C-Line FD.
“My instinct flies like a gstar tee bird for me, and the”
Their Night Strike 2 and 3 FDs are very stable.
“Atleast my night strikes 2 and 3 are very stable.”
Their Exo Links are board flat: Hard has almost no flex until beaten in, Soft is grippier; a great all-round putter, with Neo better as a thrower.
“Exo Links are board flat. Both hard and soft. Hard has almost no flex until it beats in. Soft is grippier and slightly more flexible than Hard. The Link is”
Just bought a C-Line MD1 and finds the plastic softer than Champion, feeling more like Star.
“I just purchased a c-line md1 for 20 bucks brand new. From what I've felt of champion plastic, this is softer than champion plastic. I do not own any, but”
Loves the MD3, both old and new, and hopes the Method is a better wind fighter that won't turn over.
“I was a bit concerned it might overlap the MD3 (which I love - both old and new). Like, would it just be a matter”
Throwing mids about 300 ft, they couldn't match that distance with the prototype Q-Line MD3 at any nose angle without a tailwind, and it was unpredictable in headwinds.
“I have very similar experiences with the Proto Q-Line MD3. Did substantial testing and I thought it was just me but I throw a Roc3/Buzzz/MD3 300ft \~ 55mph 1200RPM. I”
Really likes the Majesty: very fast with a wide, sharp rim but not overstable, flying straight for a long way before fading; they bought two backups.
“I actually really like it. It is a very fast disc (wide, sharp rim) but is not at all overstable. For me it tends to fly very straight for a”
Their Active Premium Magician has a big dome and is really flippy.
“Bought active premium Magician. It has a big dome and is really flippy. Also bc of the dome it is”
Loves the new-mold MD5, which is their go-to overstable mid.
“I love the new-mold MD5 and it’s my go-to. I bag a Resistor (in Eclipse) for a “baby Firebird”-style flight”
Can crank their C-Line MD4 into a full flex and it always fades at the end, unlike their straighter, angle-sensitive MD3.
“I can crank on my MD4 and get it to fully flex and it’ll always have some fade towards the end of the flight. My”
Dislikes the Active Premium plastic so far: very stiff and a bit slick in cold weather.
“I kind of dislike the plastic. Might change my mind when summer gets here and it's 24+ outside but now they are very stiff and”
Their Wrath flies quite high-speed stable until it beats in; after some tree hits it turns a bit thrown flat or flips up from hyzer, but still finishes strong.
“The Wrath in my experience flies pretty high speed stable until it beats in a bit. Once it takes some tree hits it will turn a bit when thrown flat”
Loves their Plasma Servo, which holds up much better than the Neutron one they found too flippy.
“I love my plasma servo, holds up much better than neutron (I also thought neutron was too flippy). Should be”
The Volt is the most money forehand disc they've had: Plasma for flex and Neutron for straight flyers.
“Volt has been the most money forehand disc I’ve ever had. Use a plasma for flex and neutron for straight”
Finds their Neutron Prism Trance definitely more stable than its numbers.
“The Trance neutron prism ,is for sure more stable than the numbers”
Replaced their old Vulcan with a Vanish and loved it: it feels tighter and drives much more accurately without losing much distance.
“I used a Vanish to replace my old Vulcan (13/5/-4/2) and loved it. Feels tighter, I can drive much more accurate with it while not sacrificing too much distance. Personally,”
Bags a Jet for turnovers and tailwinds alongside a Shryke for max distance; the Jet is definitely flippier.
“I bag a shryke for max D and a Jet that I use for turnover and tailwinds. Definitely flippier.”
Has bagged a Virus, mostly as a roller, and finds it very responsive.
“I have bagged Virus before, but mostly as a roller. I think it is very responsive and pretty true to”
Their Fission Wave goes further than a Tenacity for them.
“2nd the wave recommendation as the fission wave goes further for me than a Tenacity.”
Loved two DDs: an S-Line that beat in to perfection and hyzer-flipped flat for days, and a C-Line like a new Thunderbird that holds lines with a consistent fade.
“I've had two DD's that I love. An s-line that started very wraith like then beat into perfection , it would hyzer flip to flat for days, and a c-line”
Lost their Horizon DD1, which was a nice flippy backhand driver and great on forehand.
“Just lost my Discmania horizon DD1 which was a nice flippy backhand driver and great forehand. Would the I blend”
Loves their S-Line DD3s, though the stability of the new first run was a bit of a mistake.
“I love my S-Line DD3s, but I know the stability of this new first run was kind of a mistake.”
Finds the Enigma money for the flippy distance slot, best in Vapor or Forge plastic.
“The Enigma is money for that slot. Best in vapor or forge plastic which can”
Tried the Drop in place of a Tactic and Razor Claw 3 and kept overthrowing upshots because of its sneaky glide.
“Drop does have sneaky glide. I tried it for a while in place of the Tactic and Razor Claw3, and kept overthrowing upshots with the”
Thinks the Essence is the glidiest disc they've ever thrown, with more glide than the Falk or FD.
“I think the Essence is legitimately the glidiest disc that I've ever thrown. More glide than the Falk, or the FD imho. I'm completely sold”
Was surprised to get a fair amount of turn out of a brand-new Neutron Panic at around 380 ft; loves the feel in hand but wanted a stronger headwind driver.
“I am not a particularly long thrower (maybe 380 consistently) so I was surprised when I was able to get a non-insignificant amount of turn out of my by brand”
An early-production Neutron Rhythm was flat as a board and wouldn't turn however hard they threw it; a newer one feels much less flat.
“I got one of the earlier production Neutron Rhythms and it was flat as a board and I could not make it turn no matter how hard I threw it.”
Wasn't planning to get one until they held it and putted with it 50–60 times; it will replace their putter because it fits their hand like a glove.
“I wasn't planning on getting one until I held it and gave it about 50-60 putts It'll replace my Penny Putter...Pixel just fits my hand like a glove”
Also bags an Envy and tried an MVP Watt for something straighter and more stable; it has been solid with nearly identical feel.
“I also bag an Envy, but tried out an MVP Watt for something more straight/stable and it's been solid. Nearly identical feel as an Envy”
The Electron Soft Atom is their second-favourite putter.
“The Electron Soft Atom is my second favorite putter. If they release it in the pixel’s soft plastic it might”
Has praised the Pitch since getting the Total Eclipse release: basically an Ultrastar, and floaty nose-up forehands go straight.
“I've been singing the Pitch's praises since I grabbed the total eclipse release. It's basically an ultrastar. Floaty nose up forehands just go straight. Love it.”
Threw their own Paradox side by side with a relative's and found a big difference at the same weight and plastic, about -1.5 versus -3 turn.
“I threw a Paradox after seeing how much of a turnover disc it was for my daughter's SO. It flew differently. So I borrowed his and threw them side by”
Thinks the Insanity is well worth trying: it can be a roller machine or a go-to straight distance disc depending on how it is thrown.
“Insanity is so money. If you want someone to tell you that it’s worth trying, I got you. It’s different things to different people. A”
The Pyro is by far their favourite overstable midrange, the only non-Thought Space disc in their bag.
“Pyro is by far my favorite over stable mid range. I bag exclusively thoughtspace disc's with the exception of the”
Loves the Total Eclipse Proxy run: board flat, dead straight and holds angles beautifully, unlike other Proxies they find too domey.
“Best run they ever did was the Total Eclipse run. Board flat and dead straight, holds an angle beautifully and feels great in the hand. I haven’t found another Proxy”
Finds an Electron Envy does everything a Proxy can do.
“Envy atom. Electron Envy does everything a proxy can do but atom is unique in”
Their Time-Lapse is far more overstable than their Star Wraiths and Halo Bosses, with much less glide despite the big dome; it flies like a longer Firebird.
“I bag Star Wraiths and Halo Bosses, and my Time-Lapse is far more overstable than both, with a lot less glide too despite the massive dome. Closest thing I’ve been”
The Plasma Trace is their favourite disc to throw forehand.
“Was looking for the Plasma Trace to be mentioned and here it is. Honestly my favorite disc to throw forehand”
Finds the Reactor has more high-speed stability and fade than the Hex, so they can slam it without worrying about it flipping in wind.
“The Reactor is more HSS (high speed stability) and has a bit more fade. I can slam the Reactor harder without worrying about it flipping in the wind. The Hex”
A few months into playing, they picked up a Plasma Fireball to fill the Firebird slot and shot their best round at Pier Park.
“I picked up a Plasma Fireball and let me tell you, I should have listened to yall sooner. Played Pier park in PDX today and shot the best round of”
Absolutely loves their Plasma Mayhem and trusts it for both backhand and forehand drives.
“Absolutely love the Mayhem personally. Mine is in plasma though, so can't speak to the neutron one you got. I use it for drives both BH and FH and really”
Their Hex turns a little and has less fade than their Buzzz; they bag both with a Roc3 to cover backhand lines.
“My Buzzz never flips over when I throw it true, Hex does a little bit and has a little less fade at the end. I bag a roc3, buzz and”
Landed on a Matrix as their step up from the Hex: straighter than a Pyro but more stable than a Hex.
“I landed on a matrix for this slot. Straighter than a Pyro but more stable”
Finds the 400 Ultra Soft A2 an absolute meat hook: the soft plastic turns a skip monster into a hit-and-stick beefcake.
“A2 in 400 Ultra Soft is an absolute meathook. If you’re ok with gummy plastic, this thing is a hog. Because of the soft plastic, it turns an absolute skip”
Tried the new Balance as a more wind-proof Hex: it feels good, the Neutron is grippier and gummier, there are no release issues backhand or forehand, and it is more overstable than expected.
“Feels good. The Neutron is a bit grippeir and gummier. No release issues BH or FH. It is more OS than I expected, with the fade kicking in pretty early”
Their Berg comes in and out of the bag: it has the ground play they want but isn't overstable enough for their needs.
“I’ve had a berg come in and out of the bag for a while now, definitely has the ground play I want but not overstable”
Finds the Deflector the most reliably overstable mid ever, and the Fireball similar as a 9-speed.
“Fireball and deflector. The deflector is the most reliably overstable mid ever. And fireball is similar but s 9 speed”
Predominantly RHFH and can forehand almost anything, but not deep mids, specifically their Champion Roc3.

“I really like the feel of my star Valkyrie in 169gs. I usually throw on a slight hyzer so it flips up and has a”
Finds the Lots very smooth for longer shots and regularly parks longer holes with it.
“And the Lots is also quite tasty for longer shots. I regularly park longer holes here, simply becauze the Lots is just so damn smooth.”
Just switched from a Pixel to the Reko for putting: with smaller hands it feels shallower and is a bit faster, and they love it.
“I just tried out a Reko for putting coming from a Pixel. I think it's going to be my new putting putter. I have smaller hands and the Reco feels”
Can't get a Malm to work forehand: despite a fairly clean forehand, it never leaves their hand without substantial off-axis torque.
“I cannot get a Malm to work on forehand. I have a forehand that is relatively clean, but I cannot get that disc to leave”
The Göte became their straight-mid replacement: slow, but it sticks to any line and goes incredibly straight on smooth throws.
“The gote ended up being my "straight mid" replacement. it isn't a buzz or hex (it also flies pretty dang slow) but it'll stick to any line you put it”
The Reko X is their favourite overstable throwing putter: solid for approaches or drives that shouldn't turn but don't need Zone or Järn beef.
“Reko X is my favorite OS throwing putter. Solid for approaches or drives where you don't want much turn but don't need Zone/Jarn type beef.”
Their Järn is a forehand workhorse from 100 to 250 ft.
“KP Jarn - 4.5 speed - is a workhorse for me 100 - 250 I”

Finds the K1 Reko X and K1 Stig both incredible discs.
“K1 Reko X and K1 Stig are both incredible discs, K1 berg is probably my”

“Oh and also, my Turbulence, it's a hardcore flex machine.”
Their Cosmic Neutron Crave is their go-to forehand fairway: it goes absolutely dead straight, about 290 ft on average.
“Cosmic Neutron Crave and Anvil are my go-to fairway driver and approach discs for fh, and I throw a wraith fh slightly less far than you do (~325). The Crave”
Finds the Bokeh flies like a more stable Crave, similar to their Servo but glidier, and recommends it to those who like a Servo flight with an FD's deeper, domier feel.
“It flies like a more stable crave. Similar to my servo. I think this disc is less about a whole new flight for the mvp lineup and more about giving”
A forehand-dominant player who picked up a used Excite and finds that it really flies.
“I picked up a used Excite the other day and WOW! that thing flies! What”
Their 171 g Fission Delirium is far flippier than their Fission Dimension, more like -3/1.
“I've only taken the Delirium (171g) out for a spin once but it is waaaaaay more flippy. Like -3 1”
The closest flight they've found to their slightly beat-in 170 g Star Wraith was a brand-new 168 g lab-second Neutron Defy.

Just bagged a Glide and likes it a lot for certain shots.
“I just bagged a Glide and I like it a lot for certain shots. I”
Their Neutron Tempo flies close to its numbers and is probably the safest disc in their bag; the Eclipse one flies straighter, more like a new Eclipse Hex.
“I have a neutron Tempo from the 2023 Gyropaloosa box and bought the eclipse version. The neutron one is pretty close to the numbers. Probably the safest disc in my”
A big Pig fan who finds the CT Swirl Fossil very similar and basically interchangeable, with a slightly deeper, thinner rim and stiffer, equally grippy plastic.

Finds Forces much more overstable than Destroyers.
“Forces seem much more over stable than Destroyers in my experience.”
Their Fierce has a bit more stability than the Spin and wants to fight out and fade more.
“The Fierce, or at least the one I have has a bit more stability to it where it wants to fight out and fade more.”
Has FLX and Z Drones; the Z is definitely more overstable and handles power much better.
“I have an FLX and a Z Drone. Z is definitely more overstable than the FLX and I feel like it can handle power a”
A lifelong Wraith thrower whose Drive made the bag after it beat in; it would be their one driver for backhand and forehand.
“I’m a lifelong Wraith thrower and the Drive has found its way into my bag with my wraiths. It took me a bit to learn it and for it to”
Bags a Big Z Crank that flies like a high-speed Valkyrie and doesn't flip easily, used when there's little room down the left.
“I bag a Big Z Crank, kinda flies like a high speed Valkyrie imo. Does not flip easily at all, so I use it when”
Has thrown four Cicadas that all flew completely differently and none close to their numbers; prefers the Passion.
“I've thrown four different Cicadas. All four flew completely different, and none even close to the numbers. I admit it's likely operator error, but it”
A Trilogy fan who admits the Challenger feels nice in hand and putts cleaner than their Judges.
“I have to admit the Challenger feels nice in my hand and putts cleaner than my Judges for me. I”
Their mids used to be the Buzzz SS, Buzzz and Buzzz OS; the OS was replaced by a Zone, and they reach for their near-max-weight ESP SS more often.
“My midrange lineup used to be Buzzz SS, Buzzz, BuzzzOS. The OS got phased out by the Zone, and of the two remaining, I go for my SS more often.”
Picked up a Pro D Banger GT on a whim as a heavier, more reliable putter than the Aviar, and after a week wants two more.
“I've used it for about a week and I'm trying to find a place where I can pick up two”
Originally threw the Anax but switched to the Roman; the Anax was always slightly less stable than they wanted for that slot.
“Originally threw Anax and tried a Roman and never went back to Anax. Anax was always slightly less stable than I wanted for that slot.”
Confirms TDs are more stable than their numbers, but with patience they beat in to a better disc.
“can confirm TD are more stable than the numbers suggest. BUT, if you’re patient, it beats into a better disc”
Their Archer was faster than a Buzzz with a sharper edge, like a faster beat-in Comet: kind of flippy but controllable.
“I had an Archer, and I agree. It's definitely faster than a Buzzz and has a sharper edge. It's like a faster, beat in Comet. It's kind of flippy, but”
Doesn't like the stock ESP Athena but throws limited-edition Athenas that are a touch more stable with better grip.
“I don’t like the Athena stock Esp. I throw the LE Athenas & they are a touch more stable & the grip is better. Patiently Waiting on a stock Z”

“The Origin is flatter and more under stable.”
Bags a Neo Method and two Exo Hard Methods and can cover the whole stability range with them; the Exo ones cycle fast in the woods.
“I bag one Neo Method, two Exo Hard Methods and a Fuse. I could easily cover the whole stability spectrum with my Methods, the Exo's cycle pretty fast, at least”
Enjoys the Mutant's feel; once it's done flying it dumps aggressively, unlike the Tactic, which is easier to push straight.
“As far as feel, you're either going to love it or hate it. I enjoy the way it feels. As far as a comparison, the Razor Claw and Mutant are”
Knows no putter that flies farther than a P2: stable rather than overstable, can be thrown very hard without turning over, and they can't get enough.
“I honestly don't know of any putter that will fly farther then a P2. I wouldn't call it overstable but definitely stable for sure. You can throw them so hard”
Finds the Discmania-made S-Line PD similar in stability to a Big Z Anax, while most C-Line PDs are stable enough to compete with their overstable 9-speed.
“The S Line PD (Discmania made) is similar in stability to the Big Z Anax, but most C Line PDs are stable enough to where they start competing against my”
Their forehand disc is a Neutron Boost: C-Line PD stability out of the box but board flat, becoming very workable after a few tree hits.
“I don't forehand much, but when I do, it's a Neutron Boost. It's got the stability of a C-line PD out of the box, but is board flat. And once”
Hasn't yet beaten in their new domey C-Line PD2, which already has a ton of glide.
“I have yet to beat in my new domey c line that already has a”
Has thrown dozens of P2s for over a decade and found the Rainmaker obviously a different mold: thinner, less overstable, with very different plastic.
“I’ve thrown dozens of P2s for over a decade, and from the very first Rainmaker it was obviously a different mold. Thinner. Not as overstable. And very, very different feeling”
With small hands, they fell in love with the Exo Soft Logic as a shallow putting putter.
“Fell in love when I first held a Exo Soft Logic.”
Finds FD3s much more overstable at high speed than the PD, with much more control at shorter distances.
“FD3s are much more OS at high speeds. The PD is a lot like a thunderbird, and has more turn than the FD3. Additionally, the FD3 has much more control”
Loves their Neo Function Storm Breaker: it fits their hand perfectly and isn't as flippy as its numbers; on slight hyzer it pops flat and drives forward with gentle fade.
“I bought myself Discmania Neo Function Storm Breaker, and I absolutely love it. Has a slight dome (which I usually dont like), and fits my hand perfectly. It’s 8|6|-4|1, and”
The Instinct has been their go-to for many shots: it goes dead straight, holds a hyzer, flips up, and gives mini flex lines.
“Instinct has been my go to discs for a lot of shots. They can go dead straight, hold a hyzer, and even flip up. Love”
After a year searching, a Neo FD from the 2023 mystery boxes is perfect: at 350 ft power it flips up a little, flies super straight and has a baby finish.
“I got one of the Neo FDs (Night Stone) from the 2023 Mystery boxes and they are perfect. Out of the box thrown at 350ft worth of power, I get”
Finds the Link straight and neutral out of the box, like a classic Aviar, while the Envy is more stable.
“Link is straight/neutral out the box, like a classic aviar or Nova. Both are pretty”
Finds the MD3 like a more stable EMac Truth or Buzzz, with the Method more like a Roc3.
“I would say the MD3 is like a more stable emac truth/buzzz, and the Method is pretty much a Roc3. So essentially the origin would”
Their mystery-box Majesty is a far flyer, close to a DD2.
“Majesty from mystery box is a far flyer. It flies pretty close to a dd2 if I were guessing (near”
Likes their Magician for 210–230 ft midrange shots: straight with a little fade, stable enough not to flip, and it replaced their Buzzz and Roc.
“I do like my magician for midrange shots. I like it with a good medium-power throw, in the 210-230 foot range. It flies straight with a little fade at the”
Started fieldworking an old C-Line MD5 that had sat on their shelf for years and completely fell in love with it.
“I recently started workshopping an old MD5 that had been collecting dust on my shelf for a number of years. Ive completely fallen in love”
Throws both: the MD3 flexes and glides, especially on forehand, while the MD4 is straight then dumpy; they prefer flat-top MD4s.
“I throw both and they're not similar enough to say either or, they don't compete for the same slot in my bag. MD3 will flex and glide, especially forehand throws”
Has Proton and Plasma Wraths: the Proton has a solid fade at the end, while the Plasma is so flippy it might as well be a Virus.
“I have a proton Tesla, proton wrath, plasma wrath. The Tesla is pretty dang straight. The proton wrath had a solid fade at the end. The plasma wrath might as”
Loved the Crave but found Servos more forgiving, bagging a Plasma Servo as straight to slightly understable and a Proton Servo as straight to slightly overstable.
“I loved the Crave, but have found Servos to be more forgiving. Currently bagging a Plasma Servo for a straight to slightly understable and a Proton Servo for a straight”
Threw a new MVP Open stamp Trance in the 300–320 ft range and expected more turn; it seemed a little more stable than a Crave.
“I got my new MVP open stamp trance out for around today. I threw it on a few holes, ~300-320 range. I was expecting more turn, it seemed to be”
Tried two new Neutron Vanishes and both felt more stable than the numbers, more like a Wave.
“Tried two Vanish and both felt more stable than the numbers at least new Neutron out of the box, felt”
Has two 167 g Jets and had a 173 g DD; the DD was slightly less understable but they fill the same slot, and the Jet is easier to find.
“I have two jets at 167g and had a DD at 173. The DD is slightly less understable, but pretty comparable. At the very least, they occupy the same slot”
A lefty who has thrown a Virus for a couple of years as their go-to flippy disc; it hyzers out with too much angle and needs enough turn to start flipping.
“I’ve thrown a Virus for a couple years now and it’s my go to flippy disc. You’re just going to have to keep throwing it to find the correct angle.”
Has three of the 2025 mystery-box run DDs and it is their favourite run of the DD.
“I have 3 of them and its my favorite run of DD. Welcome to discmania”
Has thrown two DNA DD1s since release; they hold a little straighter now and are stubborn to lose stability, sitting between a seasoned Stratosphere DD1 and a PD2.
“I’ve been throwing two DNA DD1s since they came out. They’ll hold a little straighter now, but They’re all i ‘need’ between a seasoned Stratosphere DD1 and a PD2. DNAs”
Considers the S-Line DD3 the perfect distance driver out of the box, with some flip and endless glide, but it quickly beats in to too flippy.
“S-Line DD3 is what I would consider the "perfect" distance driver right out of the box. Gets some flip up and glides forever, but quickly beats in to be too”
The Enigma is their new favourite long-range disc: they usually throw 300 ft but get 380 ft with a good pull, and it replaced a DDX they couldn't turn over reliably.
“Enigma is my new favorite long range disc. I throw about 300' usually but I can get 380' with a good pull on the Enigma. It replaced the DDx in”
With a 350 ft average max, gets the Essence as far as their CD2 with a gentle turn for most of the flight; less finicky than a Fury.
“I was getting these out to the same distance as the cd2, with a gentle turn for about 3/4 of the flight. Reminds me of a Fury but less finicky.”
Their Neutron Panic isn't beating in at all; a pure utility disc for them, more useful than their Tilt because of the glide.
“My Panic is not beating in. It’s neutron plastic which is already great at holding flight characteristics, but it’s not even beating in a little. Pure utility disc for me.”
Their first-run 170 g Neutron Rhythm didn't want to turn at first, but after several weeks it beat in to their favourite understable fairway.
“My first run neutron Rhythm \[170g\] was similar but I just kept throwing it and now it's my favorite understable fairway. They beat in quite nicely in my opin but”
Loves the Pixel for circle 2 putts, where its glide helps them make more and putt more smoothly, though its feel took a while to adjust to after the Atom and Envy.
“I love the Pixel for C2 putts - the glide has really helped me to make more putts, and lead to a smoother putting style. That said, as someone who”
Finds the Proxy good but loves the Atom, the most fun disc for straight shots that turn ever so slightly the whole way.
“Proxy is good but the Atom is what I love. Most fun disc to throw straight shots that ever so slightly turn the whole way.”
The Pitch fits their hand better than a Glitch for upshots and long putts, seems less affected by wind, and is their go-to upshot disc.
“I’m also a Pitch lover. It fits my hand better than a Glitch for upshots and long putts. It also seems less affected by wind. It is my go-to upshot”
The Paradox is their go-to roller and RHBH hyzer-flip disc for drifting right, and they use it nearly every round.
“The Paradox is my go to roller disc and hyzer flip to drift right (RHBH). I love it and use it nearly every round.”
A 300 ft thrower who bags three Insanitys, finding them straighter and a little less overstable than a Valkyrie; a 161 g Fission is their longest driver.
“Bag three Insanitys. IMO, they’re straighter and a little less OS than a Valkyrie. 161g Fission, super straight to turnover. Longest driver. 167g Fission. Has a little more finish than”
Loves their Pyro and just aced with it; it replaced a Justice that was too overstable for their arm and does exactly what they want.
“I love my Pyro, just got an Ace with it this weekend. I had a Justice in that spot before, but it was too overstable and I didn't have the”
Loves the Total Eclipse Proxies: they fly like any Proxy with a slight right-pushing turn, but the board-flat top feels much nicer.
“I love the special edition Total Eclipse proxies. They fly the same as any other Proxy with a very slight right-pushing turn the whole flight, but the top is board”
Can throw their Envys into the low 300s on a real crank, and the Envy is still by far their favourite throwing putter.
“Yep lol i can throw my envy’s low 300s on a real crank but the Luna is the only one”
A 430–450 ft thrower whose two Time-Lapses fly like a Star Destroyer or DD3, but go 20–30 ft shorter than their Emperors on max lines.
“I have two, they’re pretty stable and fly similar to a star destroyer or a DD3. I throw Emperors and am a 430-450 consistent thrower. On max distance lines I”
Finds the Neutron Trace gets up to speed and is really straight forehand with enough spin: their favourite for distance, basically a Wraith in plastic they like.
“The Trace get up to speed and is really straight in Neutron plastic if you can generate enough spin on FH. My favourite for distance since it's basically a Wraith”
Throws an Eclipse Reactor that flies in headwinds like a Hex in calm air, and in calm air acts as a Hex that won't hyzer-flip.
“I throw an eclipse reactor, in headwinds it flies like a hex would in zero winds, in zero winds it’s my “I wanna throw a Hex but I don’t want”
Loves the Fireball and credits it with keeping them in the sport in their first summer, when they mostly threw forehands.
“Love the Fireball. I credit me getting a Fireball on a whim keeping me playing the sport my first summer playing it, before I understood the concept of over/under stable”
The Hex feels much better in hand than a Buzzz, with better grip, and it handles a lot of torque.
“I wanted to like the Buzzz but the Hex feels so much better in my hand. Just a better grip for me and it can handle a lot of torque.”
Finds the new Balance every bit as stable as their Pyro, flying more like a Järn or Tactic than their RocX3s, which flip a bit and push further before fading.
“I think it's every bit as stable as my Pyro, but my bagged Pyro had been in the bag for a while so it doesn't fade as much as the”
Finds the Tesla super flat and shallow, fantastic in a forehand grip, and more stable than its numbers: fast and stable with controlled flights.
“Kinda surprised nobody has mentioned the Tesla. Super flat and pretty shallow, feels fantastic in the forehand grip. More stable than the numbers too, I have not seen anyone get”
The Järn is their favourite 4-speed, far more reliable than the Zone; the Stål is a great 9-speed and the Idog a slightly flippy forehand shot.
“If you like kastaplast, the jarn is my favorite 4 speed slot, a lot more reliable than the zone imo. Stal is a great 9”
The K1 Reko is the only Kasta disc that has kept a place in their bag, but the Falk was their go-to while learning backhand form.
“K1 REKO is the only kastaplast that’s maintained a place in my bag, but while I was learning my backhand form the FALK was my”
The Streamline Turbulence is their absolute favourite disc for forehanding, with top-tier hand feel.
“Fairway: Steamline Turbulence is my absolute favorite disc for forehanding, its handfeel is top tier. I love a puddle top for getting a good grip.”
Old board-flat Plasma Craves flew like an FD with almost no turn, while newer ones fly closer to their numbers; with a 135 m max they throw the Crave about 110 m and find it slightly understable and wind-sensitive.
“Old board flat Plasma Craves flew more like an FD – almost zero turn, reliable but pushing fade. Nowadays they usually fly more like their numbers with a consistent narrow”
Loved their first throws with the Bokeh: an easy thrower with great glide and distance, flying like a more stable Rhythm.
“Just had my first throws, love it. Not sure it’s very unique but it’s definitely an “easy thrower” with great glide and distance. I’m surprised that I haven’t seen anyone”
Took a chance on a few 170 g Fission Deliriums and found them very close to the stability they wanted, just a touch flippier.
“Took a chance on a few of the 170ish Deliriums thinking they might be the perfect stability and they are very close, but just a smidge flippier than I would”
Throws an Axiom Defy: a slightly different rim feel from a Wraith, but they can make either do what the other does.
“Personally I throw an Axiom Defy. Slightly different rim feel but otherwise I can get either of them to do what the other one will.”
Finds the Tempo a tick more stable than the Envy, faster and more forgiving of release flaws, and much better at fighting out of a headwind flutter.
“When compared to the Envy I would say the tempo is a tick/tick and a half more stable out of the box but noticeably faster flying/feeling, and more friendly to”
Finds Z Forces the most overstable, then Big Z, with ESP flippier.
“Z is the most overstable. Big Z next. ESP more flippy. I have no experience with other plastics. I have”
Finds the Deputy almost exactly like the Fierce but a tad slimmer, and prefers the Deputy.
“The Deputy is almost exactly like a Fierce but just a tad slimmer. Of the two, I prefer the Deputy.”
Finds the Drone glidier than the Gator, with a slightly straighter flight before bailing hard and more distance.
“Drone = more glide, slightly straighter flight before bailing hard, more distance potential Gator = less glide, fades earlier ...”
Throws the Drive interchangeably with their Surges; it flies well and will likely replace them.
“I have been throwing them somewhat interchangeable with my Surges. The Drive flies well and will likely replace my Surges when I don't have any”
Their Z Cicada is pretty stable, much more so than it looks in YouTube videos.
“My Z plastic Cicada is pretty stable. I have a Z plastic Passion as well and found them much more”
Finds the Buzzz SS money: it feels better in hand than the more stable versions, and they loved theirs in Z plastic.
“Buzzz ss is money. Lowkey feels better in the hand than the more stable counterparts. I've only thrown it in Z (and loved it) but some slightly less durable plastics”
Putted with Banger GTs for most of their career, but after workshopping their putt found a glidier putter increased their makes.
“I putted with Banger GTs for most of my disc golf career. About 2 years ago after getting a practice basket for the house I started really workshopping my putt,”
Loved the original proto Anax but had a poor experience with an ESP one that was very stiff and didn't feel good.

The new S-Line TD replaced their very worn Tesla.
“The new S Line TD has replaced my very worn Tesla. The Gorgon has slotted”
Throws the Archer a lot and rates it about 6/5/-3/1; the Sting is similar but they can throw it farther.

“I like the Origin a lot but my biggest takeaway was how”
Loves their Discmania Method with a Ronin stamp and bends it around trees.
“I love my Discmania Method, but i roll with the Ronin Stamp from Thoughtspace on it. I see a tree, and I bend it around it with that bad boy.”
The Mutant is like a five-speed Tilt that they love and throw for spike hyzers, skips and flex lines; super consistent with zero turn.
“The Mutant is a five speed Tilt. I love the way it feels, and I throw it all over the place. Spike hyzers, skip shots, and flex lines. It’s super”
Their P-Line P2 marked K-P2 is very stiff and much more stable than any other P2 run they've bought.

“I grabbed one. I liked how they felt better than the P2. I used a Flex 2 Prototype for a”
Uses the Logic for longer putts and upshots that need a little more glide; it flies not unlike a Pure.

Their Sexton, Champion and Star Firebirds are all less stable than their FD3s.
“I have a sexton FB, champ FB, and star FB, all of which are less stable than my FD3's. It's very possible it's just the”

“The new Discmania FD is a touch more stable. In my experience with both: new C-line FD most stable, it has some finish to it new S-Line FD == Champ”
Has putted with an Exo Soft Link and finds it feels very similar to their Classic Blend Judge; the Exo Soft plastic is amazing in cold Swedish weather.
“I've done some putting with an EXO Soft Link. My main putter is the classic blend Judge and I must say they feel very similar. The EXO Soft plastic is”
Bought the new Discmania Originals MD3 on the hype but never fully figured it out: at times oddly overstable, at others it worked great.
“I bought the new Discmania original MD3 on the hype and was never able to figure it out completely. At times it was oddly over stable and others it worked”
Got a mystery-box Majesty; they don't quite have the arm speed for it, and it seems beefier than its numbers but isn't a meathook.
“I got one from the mystery box but I don't quite have the arm speed for it. Definitely seems a bit beefier than the numbers”
Finds the Magician similar to a Kaxe Z, but neither made their bag because they fly too close to their MD3.
“most similar disc I've thrown is a kaxeZ. neither made the bag tho, to close”
The MD5 is part of their overstable lineup with a Pig and Firebird, and they love all of them.
“The OS stable parts of my bag are: Pig, MD5, Firebird. Love all of them.”
Can rip their C-Line MD4 and it always comes back, so they use it for throws of about 230–250 ft.
“The MD4 I can rip on and it will always come back, so I use it for throws around 230 to 250 out, especially if”
Bags a Neutron Axiom Wrath as a complement to the Fireball: pretty beefy but can be forced to glide and handles a lot of turn.
“I bag a Wrath (not Wraith, Axiom Wrath) as a complement to my Fireball. Pretty beefy, but can be forced to glide and handles a lot of turn. I bag”
Finds the Trance solid with a unique rim feel they like; the first runs came out more overstable than the numbers, and they bag it as a neutral 8 speed.
“They're both solid. The Trance has a pretty unique rim feel that I like. The first couple of runs came out a little more overstable than the numbers suggested, but”
Finds the Jet less stable than its numbers; they'd put the Vanish at about a true -2/2 and the Jet more like -4/2.
“Just a touch, and I’d say the Jet is less stable than its numbers. I’d put the Vanish around a true -2/2 and the Jet”
A one-year player who has had a Proton Virus for a while but can't get discs above 8 speed to fly properly yet.
“I have a Proton Virus that I have had for a couple months now, and I think I have gotten a decent flight out of”
Their Metal Flake C-Line DD used to be their go-to max-distance disc and the only one they could get to 300 ft, but it got too flippy for them.
“My metal flake C-line DD 11/6/-3/2 use to be my go to max distance disc but got too flippy for me. It use to me my only disc I could”
Finds Horizon DD1s get pretty flippy, and the DD very easy to throw.
“Horizon DD1's get pretty flippy. Also you can get some DD's that”
Pushing DD3s 400–425 ft, finds the C-Line the beefiest of the bunch but it still pushes well.
“C-Line: Beefiest of the bunch, but still pushes well. Sort of like the poor man's”
Finds the Enigma gives a long straight shot with a solid fade, a decent headwind fighter that finishes fairly straight.
“The Enigma or Trace will give a long straight shot with a solid fade at the end. They're both pretty decent headwind fighters and will”
Loves the Essence: it holds any line and doesn't take much effort for distance, though it turns over in stronger winds.
“Love the Essence! Seems to hold any line I put it on and doesn't take alot of effort to get distance. Definitely turns over in stronger winds but it is”
Enjoys the Panic as an all-round medium-overstable driver and has a stack; feel varies a lot, and the domey ones stretch about 50 ft farther than the flat ones.
“I enjoy the Panic as an all around medium overstable driver (much more workable than the Energy for example). I have a stack of them and there is some large”
Their Rhythm just turns and burns on forehands; the Crave flies great for them but they can't get the hang of the Rhythm.
“I forehand it, and it just turns and burns on me. The Crave flies amazing for me, but I can’t a hang of the Rhythm.”
Is deciding between the Pixel and the Watt as their main putter and finds themselves using the Pixel more and more.
“I like the pixel and I'm currently in the process of deciding if I want it or Watt to be my primary putter. I use both plus some others based”
Calls the Paradox a cheat-code disc: a backhand with it is as useful on certain holes as a forehand Zone.
“A paradox backhand is just as much of a cheat code for certain holes as a forehand Zone.”
The Insanity is their favourite mold after four months playing RHBH, with a longest throw of 369 ft and a consistent 330 ft.
“Insanity is currently my favorite mold. I'm flipping it over a bit more right now with a bit of form change but I can still get it to fly forever.”
Their Pyros in two plastics are both more stable than their Star Roc3, which turned at speed and faded less than wanted.
“I got a pyro in photon and tried another in prism; they are both more stable than the roc3 ever was for me. Pyro consistently”
Got a Proxy in their first starter pack and still carries and throws it often: very predictable and accurate.
“Got one in my first starter pack and it's still one I carry with ne and throw often. Very predictable and accurate. Some of my best shots I've made with”
Finds the glow Envy like a straighter, longer Zone with a predictable fade, and far more stable at the finish than their arrow-straight Electron Envy.
“The glow Envy for me is like a straighter, longer Zone, but still with predictable fade. Very complementary. And a much more stable finish than the arrow that is my”
Compared to their Destroyer and DD3, the Time-Lapse was poor; after three rounds it will likely never see their bag again.
“Compared to my Destroyer and DD3, the Time Lapse is trash. I gave it 3 rounds and it will likely”
Finds the Reactor similar to the original stability and feel of their glow Hex before it beat in, with brighter colours available.
“Reactor is pretty similar to that original stability and feel I had from the glow hex - and you can have actual bright colors instead”
Uses their Neutron Fireball in Iowa winds or to go hard left, and it flies straight in a 20+ mph headwind.
“I use the Fireball in the fun Iowa winds or when I need to go left in a hurry. It does fly perfectly straight in”
Has four Hexes in different plastics and weights but none impress them: not torque resistant and not especially straight.
“Make me understand the Hex. I have 4 of them. Different plastics. Different weights. None of them blow my hair back, but I have to be missing something. They don’t”
Was nervous about reports of overstability but found the Balance really nice: it held straight longer than expected before a predictable dump, and the Pyro was more overstable.
“I found the balance actually really nice. Held straight for longer than I expected before the predictable dump. Pyro was definitely more over stable. Looking”
Their Fission Tesla is their favourite forehand driver.
“Tesla (fission)** --fave forehand driver!!”
Finds the Järn very good forehand: K1 (Hard especially) is flat, pushes fast and is reliably overstable, while K3 is puddle-topped with little glide for short upshots.
“As others have said, Jarn is so good for forehand and you can bag 2 and get very different flights from them. The k1's (hard is my favorite) are flat”
The Falk is the only understable disc they're really comfortable with on forehand.
“Fairway - Firebird, duh & Teebird & Falk (it's the only US disc I'm really comfortable with on FH) Driver”
Their Plasma Crave flies like a 7/5/0/2; they love its feel and flight even though it doesn't fly like others report.
“My plasma Crave flys like a 7 5 0 2 for sure. Glad I'm not the only one. I love the way it feels and”
Finds the Bokeh at worst a little sensitive to release angle; at 360 ft theirs fly 7/6/0/1, far less sensitive than Cicadas and with much less high-speed turn than Craves.
“At worst it’s a little sensitive to release angle nuances. Dome variance seems to be a thing with this run. At 360’ mine are 7 6 0 1. Way less”
Has one 172 g Delirium, and unlike others it is quite stable.
“So, I only have one Delirium 172g, but I seem to have a much different”
Recently started throwing an Axiom Defy into headwinds and it works well, and they can forehand it really well too.
“I recently started throwing an Axiom Defy into headwinds and it's working out well. Bonus because I can FH it really well, too. MVP Waves”
The Tempo is the first disc they can hit their intended lines with, backhand about 250 ft and forehand 225 ft, with a gentle predictable finish.
“The Axiom Tempo is the first disc that I feel that I can hit the lines that I intend to throw. I can work the disc well BH and FH.”
Found Z Lite and Recycled ESP Forces the flippiest and a Corey Ellis Z Jawbreaker the most overstable, with little glide; flat Z Forces are the most usable overstable ones.
“Z lite most flippy, Recycled ESP most flippy for standard weight range, and most OS was the z jawbreaker Corey Ellis... those discs were glide less turds. Most useable OS”
Loved the Fierce but couldn't find them or justify the price, so switched to the Deputy.
“I loved the Fierce but couldn't find them or justify the price so I switched”
Finds the Titanium Drone the most overstable version they've thrown.
“I'd recommend the Ti Drone. It's the most overstable iteration I've thrown. If you were”
A forehand-only player who started on Captain's Raptors and now uses the Drive for most tee shots, appreciating a disc they rarely hear discussed.
“I throw only forehand and started a lot of my playing career with cap raps when my arm was slower. I still throw those but only flex lines mostly. For”
Finds the Cicada just wants to flip and turn right on RHBH with little fade, more like a -2 or -3 turn than its numbers.
“The Cicada just wants to flip and turn right on a RHBH throw. It hardly has much fade either, making the flight numbers wildly inaccurate.”
Throws an Eric McCabe Buzzz SS in their Mako3 slot and finds the flight numbers nearly identical.
“I throw an eMac Buzzz SS for the Mako3 slot and the flight numbers are nearly identical. But Meteor would”
Used Pro D Banger GTs for about five years: great feel but low glide, so they putted harder than necessary, causing inconsistency.
“I used ProD Banger GTs for about 5 years as my putting putters (KS spin putter). The mold feels great in the hand but has fairly low glide. As a”
Had a well-used Anax that felt flippy, squirrelly and unreliable instead of pushing straight and fading consistently.
“I had a very used one and it felt straight up flippy. I wanted something that would push forward straight and then consistently fade, but the Anax felt squirrelly and”
Finds a C-Line TD almost like a longer FD, flying like 10/6/-1/1.
“a C line TD is almost like a longer FD. My C line flies like [10, 6, -1, 1] Those numbers sound ridiculous, but this”
Their Titanium Archer was so understable and flippy they gave it away, replacing it with a Warship they can control better on anhyzers.
“I had a titanium Archer that was so understable and flippy I gave it to a woman on the course. Could be just me. I”
Found an Athena a few weeks ago and finds it pretty impressive for what it does.
“Found a nice Athena few weeks ago. Not bad for what it does and pretty”
Their Halloween-plastic Buzzz flies badly forehand compared with five other mids they've tried.
“Buzzz. It might be because I just have it in the Halloween plastic but it flies like shit compared to the 5 other mids I”
Finds the Buzzz OS more stable and flatter than a glow MD3, close to a Harp or Zone but with a little more glide.
“Buzzz OS is close to (but not) harp or zone, has a little more glide and midrange feel. I love”
A newer player comfortable with their ESP Avenger SS, but it's starting to turn over a bit too much for them as it beats in.
“I'm a relatively new player and I'm comfortable with throwing an Avenger SS, but its starting to turn over a bit too much for my liking. If I want to”
Loves the feel and look of their new Neo Origin, but it doesn't fly like the Buzzz they hoped it would replace.
“Got my Origin yesterday. I love the feel and looks of it. The Neo plastic is quite something I gotta say. It's flight is not what I expected though. I”
Finds the Method easier and more enjoyable to throw than the Wasp.
“I find the Method and MX-3 easier and more enjoyable to throw, but the Method”
Really likes the Mutant, which isn't weird in hand; it only goes so far before it falls to the side and dies, unlike the more workable Tactic.
“It's honestly not that weird in the hand. [It feels more weird for being deeper than the average utility disc than angular.] I really like it. Tactics, Razor Claw or”
Finds D-Line P2s cheap and great for throwing, a little more overstable than their Luna.
“D-line P2 are cheap and really great for throwing! I find them to be a little more overstable than my Luna. I'd say go for”
Uses an older Innova-made S-Line PD or a Champion Thunderbird in their power-disc slot.
“I use a champ thunderbird or an older Innova made S-line PD, but realistically most of these discs should fly”
Went from DX Aviars to Rainmakers and is now trying Pixels, which feel almost the same apart from the plastic.
“I went from Aviar DX to Rainmakers and now im trying Pixels. Feels almost the same as RMs except the”
The Logic ended their putter search and helped them make more circle 1 putts.
“the Logic is what ended my putter search and helped me get closer to that high percentage C1 putts”
Throws 375–425 ft and bags the Lizotte FD3 alongside S-Line and C-Line PDs.
“I bag the Lizotte Fd3, 2 S-Line Pds and one C-Line Pd, can confirm all of the above- tho I”
Finds the Instinct and Gazelle much straighter than the F1 and Teebirds, which turn over more for them.
“The gazelle and instinct were much straighter shots. I’ve never”
The Swirly S-Line FD has been their favourite, and a Showstopper FD made the bag for straight or understable backhand turns to the right.
“Swirly S-line FD has been my favorite. The Showstopper FD is what made the bag for me when I need straight or understable turn to”
Tried Links but stayed with the P2: similar flight and the Link feels better in hand, but it has noticeably less glide.
“Bought Links to try out but ultimately ended up remaining a P2 guy. They fly similar and the Link does feel better in the hand but they have noticeably less”
Bags C-Line MD3 and MD4; the MD3 is a tick more overstable than a Buzzz, very straight with a bit of fade, and the MD4 has a much blunter nose.
“I bag both in c-line. They feel somewhat similar, both have the same bottom, the md4 has a much blunter nose (identical to that of a rocx3). Md3's are just”
Has thrown many Cranks and one mystery-box Majesty, and definitely prefers the Crank.
“I have thrown many different Cranks, but just one Majesty (mystery box run). I for sure prefer the Crank over the Majesty.”
Loves the MD5 and paid about $30 for a used one after Discmania left Innova.
“I love that disc. I paid about $30 used for it once DM left Innova.”
Finds the MD4 more overstable than the MD3: it holds a hyzer line well and is flat to puddle top, so it works well on forehand.
“The MD4 is more OS, and holds a hyzer line well, and is flat to puddle top, so works well for forehand. Think of how”
An R2 Wrath replaced their 2024 Sexton Firebird in the bag.
“I also have an R2 Wrath that replaced my 2024 Sexton Firebird. Slowly but”
The Trance is a great 8 speed: with extra power it has a great flight shape and distance, and on a light toss it flies straight to stable.
“The Trance is a great 8 speed. Put some extra power on it and it has a great flight shape and distance, but a light toss and it's straight to”
Their Neutron Virus is quite stable while a friend's is really flippy, and their Particle Proton Virus is pretty beefy: a lot of run variance.
“I have quite stable Neutron Virus but a friend got a really flippy one, and Particle Proton Virus is actually pretty beefy. Proton Shift is pretty much as understable as”
Their S-Line DD3 gets a good S-curve with minimal fade.
“My S Line DD3 gets a good S Curve with minimal fade”
Throws Neo Enigmas 340–380 ft and loves them, but thrown flat there's a danger it won't come back, so they want something more stable.
“I've been throwing Champion Terns and Neo Enigma as my max distance driver. I can throw them 340-380ft. As much as I love throwing them I find myself wanting something”
The Essence is their go-to for 118–122 m wooded tunnel shots: it flips up to flat and glides forever.
“the Essence for me is my go to for 118-122 meter woods tunnel shots. I can flip it up to flat and it glides for freaking ever. No don't by”
Has a slower arm and throws a Fission Rhythm; as their arm speed improves it shows more and more understability, for good and bad.
“Ive got much more of a noodle arm and I have been throwing the Fission Rhythm. But as Ive been improving my arm speed the Fission Rhythm is starting to”
Found the Pixel very glidey; they stick with a Pilot for circle 1 and a Watt for circle 2 putts, though the Pixel could probably cover circle 2.
“I found the Pixel to have a lot of glide as others have said. I switch to the Pilot instead for CX1 putts and a Watt for my CX2 putts,”
Finds the Paradox excellent for controlled mid-range and approach shots, giving more turn than a putter at slow speeds, though ripping it turns it into a roller.
“The Paradox is actually quite an excellent disc, imo, for *controlled* mid-range and even approach shots. It’ll give me more turn, and hold it better, at slower speeds than a”
Uses the Insanity as their main driver: easy to flip up with a baby fade at the end.
“I use the Insanity as my main driver. Easy to flip up and has a baby fade at the end.”
Bagged a Bobcat for a good while, but a newly bought Pyro is kicking it out: same flight but much more comfortable for them.
“I bagged a Bobcat for a good while, just a few days ago I got an Axiom Pyro and it is kicking the Bobcat out of the bag. Same flight”
Has putted with the Proxy for about four years because it is shallow, and throws a Neutron one that flies straight as a laser.
“Have been putting with it for 4 years or so now (however just recently took a Detour trying out the Pixel, even though I've never liked the deeper feeling putters”
The Eclipse glow Envy is their favourite; they also bag a glow Proxy and throw it more on their straight home course.
“The Eclipse glow Envy is my favorite. I also bag a Proxy in the Glow as well. I throw my Proxy more due to my”
Their first throw with a blue stock Time-Lapse went only as far as their first Detour throw, though the Detour had a helping tailwind.
“My first throw with the blue stock Time-Lapse was matched distance-wise by my first throw with my Detour. Granted, I threw them differently and the”
Found an Eclipse Reactor only a little more stable than a fresh Hex, so it didn't make sense to bag both.
“Eclipse reactor is a little more stable, but still pretty close to a fresh hex. Didn't make sense to bag both for me. I'm throwing”
Their Neutron Fireball is more overstable than their Eclipse Insanitys and fades earlier without dumping like some Firebirds, which is why they still love it.
“I've had 2 eclipse insanitys (lost 1 after a couple months of use and then replaced it) and neither were as OS as my neutron fireball. I still bag both”
Threw a Hex for a couple of years, switched to a Buzzz, then missed the Hex and switched back for good.
“I threw a Hex for a couple years and then switched to a Buzzz and loved it. As time went on I felt myself missing the Hex so I switched”
Finds the Balance more overstable than a Pyro but not by much, like a 7.5/10 Pyro out of the box, and expects it to beat in to an amazing disc.
“More overstable, but not way more. Balance is like a 7.5/10 Pyro out of the box. Definitely an overstable mid for most mortal arms (including my own). The Balance will”
Their Fission Tesla is money: a little turn then a little fade, and as dead straight as they've gotten a 9-speed or faster to fly; their Craves fly dead straight like a Mako3.
“If you’re looking to stick with the overmold my Fission Tesla is money. My Craves fly completely dead straight like a Mako 3 and the Tesla has more of a”
A new player told a Crave is a Hex that goes 50 ft further, and that has been their experience: total point and shoot that holds whatever line they put it on.
“yep, this. I'm a new player who was hoping for a disc that felt like a hex and was as easy to throw straight, guy at the shop says "Crave.”
Their 167 g Bokeh wants to fight to the ground thrown straight and works best on a pushing hyzer; more torque resistant than a Crave but not as much as a Servo.
“Threw mine (167g) today, throwing straight I find it wants to fight to the ground. Had the most luck on a pushing Hyzer. Definitely more torque resistant than the crave,”
Has a Delirium that is quite overstable for a Delirium and throws it only in a really strong headwind.
“I have a delirium that is seemingly quite over stable for a delirium. I only throw it if it's a really strong headwind. For a”
A Proton Tempo is their favourite disc.
“Proton tempo is my favorite disc, and I have a load of tb3 now. They are fantastic. I have also”
Hasn't found randomly flippy Forces like Destroyers; their Recycled ESP Force is a flyer.
“My Recycled ESP is a flyer but I don't have any data on whether that's typical. Worth a shot, though.”
Has a bunch of prototype and first-run Fierces but only putts with them because they are so soft.
“I have a bunch of them (both prototype and first run), and yeah I only use them for putting because of how soft they are”
Loves how thin the Cicada's rim is, which fits their small hands better than the thicker Athena.
“For me, it is the rim width. I love how thin it is. It fits better in my tiny hands. The Athena has a thicker”
The Buzzz SS has become their go-to disc; they parred a tricky 500 ft wooded hole for the first time riding it up to the basket, it's so controllable.
“The Buzzz SS has quickly become my go-to disc. I parred a tricky 500’ wooded hole at a local course for the first time just riding that thing up to”
A big fan of the Soft Banger GT, though as they throw more approaches with putters it feels different from their throwers.
“So yeah... Big fan of the Soft Banger-GT. But, as my game has been progressing over the years and I am finding that I am”
Every Anax they've thrown fades more like 1–2 than the rated 3.
“Every Anax I've thrown has had a fade more like 1.2 or 2 instead of 3. Just like the Luna”
Finds a slightly beat-in S-Line TD flips to straight or a slight anhyzer for days.
“A slightly beat in S-TD will flip to straight or slight anny for days. A great PD compliment for those”
Uses an ESP Archer to turn past trees to a basket on the right with no forehand option, and it fades back nicely at the end.
“I use an ESP archer for when I need to turn past trees to a basket on the right with no easy backhand line on the right side of the”
A big Athena thrower who notices the 2025 Ledgestone Athenas have more dome and a lower parting line than their earlier Z, ESP and Jawbreaker ones.
“I'm a big Athena thrower and all of my Athenas purchased prior to 2025-Z line, ESP, and ESP Jawbreaker-look like the purple disc above. The new 2025 ledgestone Athenas have”
Used to bag an ESP FLX Drone and a Z Buzzz OS; the Drone glides farther and became a favourite, while the Buzzz OS was replaced.
“I used to bag both (esp flx drone, z buzzz os) and agree that the drone will glide farther. The done has become one of my most used discs in”
Finds the Origin isn't a Buzzz replacement but they work well together; it kicked the Fuse out of their bag.
“Not a replacement for the Buzzz, but they work well together. I bag both and the Origin kicked the Fuse out of my bag.”
Finds the Roc and Method mids don't work forehand for them.
“Roc and Method are mids that don't work for me FH. Shogun”
Bags the Mutant as their get-out-of-prison disc for steep hyzers over trees and acute angles, alongside a Tactic for controlled approaches.
“Yes I bag it. Can't tell about the RC, but I also bag a Neo Tactic, and have some Lux Tactics. I like both. Tactic being shorter and less OS.”
Finds the P2 much deeper and a little more overstable than a Luna.
“P2 is much deeper and a little more overstable. Get”
Bought three Innova-made factory-second PDs; two had noticeable dome but the super flat one became their favourite.
“I got 3 of them and 2 had very noticable dome but one was super flat and that one ended up being my favorite. But”
Warns that Rainmakers are considerably more overstable than Aviars despite the nice feel.
“they are considerably more overstable. If you're looking for a similar feel to the rainmakers but maybe a closer flight”
After other putters flipped too easily, they can throw the Logic dead straight 240–250 ft on a low line with less turn than their Buzzz.
“But with the logic I can throw it dead straight 240 to 250 low line with less turn than my buzz. I’ve only thrown one but it’s been the best”
Swapped their 12x Firebird for a Sexton Firebird and FD3 combo; the C-Line FD3 is more overstable than the 12x.
“Took my 12x out of the bag for a sexybird/FD3 combo. I feel like the c\-line FD3 is more overstable than the 12x, and the sexybird is a bit straighter”
The Instinct is one of their favourite Evolution discs, though it just left their bag for Alphas.
“Origin and Instinct are probably my favorite. Instinct just left my bag tho via Alphas. The origin is a great”
Their S-Line FD is their straight shooter, slimmer in profile than their domier Dark Rebels.
“The S Line is my straight shooter and my 2 Dark Rebels are slightly under stable and stable. The S”
Bagged Primal Run Links for a while but went back to P2s: the Links lacked glide, were too stable for their putting, and they didn't like the bead.
“Picked up primal links. Bagged those for a bit. Ultimately ended back with P2 in my bag. They don’t have the glide (the links, and they are too stable for”
Throws the Majesty in fieldwork and finds it a pretty decent disc, though much more overstable than expected.
“I think it's a pretty decent disc. Though it's much more overstable in the premium plastic than the numbers would suggest. Many people seem to”
Hates the MD5 for forehands because they can't unfeel its concave rim.
“I actually hate the MD5 for forehands. Ever since i read that the rim in concave, i can't unfeel it.”
The MD4 complements their Buzzz: reliably straight with a good fade, and fast enough to act like a fairway driver.
“MD4 is an awesome compliment to a buzzz, flights reliably straight but also fades well. It’s really fast too, damn near acts like a fairway”
Finds the Virus similar to the Hatchet and uses them interchangeably for big hyzer-flip and turnover lines; their Neutron Virus is more overstable than their Proton.
“The Virus is pretty similar to the Hatchet, in my experience. I use them pretty interchangeably for big hyzer-flip to turnover lines, and I've thrown the Virus on some roller”
Found the Echo DD3 run less stable than all the prototype Cloud Breaker and S-Line DD3s they tested, so it goes farther for slower arms.
“The Echo DD3 is less stable than all the prototype Cloudbreaker and S-Line DD3s I have tested. This means the Echo DD3 will go farther for the majority of folks”
Throws the Enigma and keeps six or seven to cycle so they don't all beat in.
“I personally throw the Enigma, and what I have done is just get 6-7 of them and cycle regularly so they don't beat in too”
Uses the Essence for shots from 200 ft sky anhyzers to 350 ft hyzer-flip tunnel lines, and has maxed it over 400 ft.
“The Essence is a fantastic disc that I use for certain shots anywhere between 200' sky anhyzers and 350' laser beam hyzer-flip tunnel shots, but have maxed it out over”
Their Neutron Rhythm flies very similarly to a non-Fission Crave.
“my neutron flies very similarly to a non-fission crave”
Bought Electron Soft and Firm Pixels, putting with the soft and throwing the firm; as a putter it goes to the basket and as a thrower it is reliable on any line.
“I bought an electron soft and an electron firm Pixel about a month ago. I throw the firm and putt with the soft. I am very happy with both. As”
The Paradox is one of their favourites but is finicky: it loves to turn and refuses to fade, and on the right hyzer it flips flat and flies very straight.
“Paradox is one of my absolute favorites, but it is a finicky disc that you have to throw juuust right. As you notes, this disc loves to turn and refuses”
Has a 157 g R2 Insanity with the Eclipse overmold for glow rounds; it goes far and is surprisingly stable.
“I got a 157 R2 Insanity PDGA disc, it has the eclipse overmold. I only throw it for glow rounds but damn that thing goes far and is surprisingly stable.”
Loves their Pyro: great hand feel on backhand and forehand, and stable enough for their forehand off-axis torque without being a beefcake.
“But I love my Pyro so much I doubt I’ll ever throw a Bobcat in my life. Great hand feel both backhand and forehand. Stable enough to handle my forehand”
Loves the Proxy for putting and throwing and bags the Silva Proxy; the Envy is only a touch more overstable for them.
“Love them. Putting and throwing. Keep it simple. Envy is not too different for me - touch more OS. I bag the SIlva Proxy for”
Uses the Proton glow Envy as their putting putter too.
“I use the Proton glow Envy as my putting putter as well. I wish there was an electron version with”
Has two blue Time-Lapses, a beefy SE and a slightly less stable factory second, and expects them to push their Mayhems out once beaten in; it feels great in hand.
“I have two different color blue time lapse, one SE stamp and one factory second. The SE is pretty beefy and the F2 a little more stand up and I”
Thrown flat, their Neutron Reactor finishes about 15 ft left while the Hex falls 15 ft right; Eclipse Reactor finishes about 40 ft left.
“Thrown flat and straight with full flight, the Hex will fall about 15’ right of straight, the Neutron Reactor will fall about 15’ left of straight, and the Eclipse Reactor”
Fireballs are among the most consistent discs in their bag; one over a year old has hit plenty of trees and is still overstable.
“Fireballs have been one of the most consistent discs in my bag. I've had one that is at least a year old and has smacked its fair share of trees”
Thinks the Hex is their first real favourite disc and birdied two holes with it yesterday, though Eclipse plastic is hard to find in dead grass.
“I think I found my first “favorite “ disc, the Hex. Helps that I birdied two yesterday with it. The eclipse plastic isn’t the easiest”
On their third Balance, all very similar: properly overstable but very pushy, going as far as their Hex; they cut their mids to a beat-up Hex and a Balance.
“After a series of unfortunate events I´m on my third Balance. They were all very similar. Nice and properly overstable, but very pushy. The Balance goes just as far as”
Has bagged a Fission Crave for two or three years as a shorter Inertia for straight shots in no wind.
“I have bagged a Fission Crave for the last two or three years now. It is my shorter version of an Inertia for straight shots without any wind (with the”
Loves the Crave but finds the Bokeh feels better, like a glove, with more glide and torque resistance.
“I love the crave but I can’t deny the Bokeh feels better. I don’t have huge hands but I don’t have small hands. Crave feels good but the Bokeh feels”
Their Delirium is incredibly overstable, flying like a faster Phase; their Destroyers flip up on forehand but the Delirium has no chance of that.
“I have a delirium and it’s incredibly overstable. It flies like a faster Phase for me. I throw my destroyers around 110-120m and get them to flip up on a”
Loves the Tempo and already aced with it this year; they use it for shorter fairway shots.
“I LOVE the Tempo. Already got an Ace with it this year. I also LOVE TeeBird3s. Just got another Ace”
Finds the 6 Claw Force reliably flippy when new with 400+ ft of power; their most stable are a 4 Claw and a Doss Titanium.
“6 Claw Force seems somewhat reliably flippy from new if you have some 400 or more in your tank. Most stable I have is a”
Loved their Cicada in its first round: it feels much better in hand than a Passion or Stalker, thin with a comfortable rim.
“I just played my first round with mine, I love it! Feels so much better in my hand than a passion or stalker. Nice and”
Wanted to love the Buzzz SS that everyone recommended, but it always turned over on them.
“The first Buzz I bought was the SS I wanted to love it. So many ppl recommended it. However, I just could not get down with it. I kept asking”
Uses a Banger GT for 90% of approaches, with a Zone when they need stability; the groove lets them control it with lots of snap.
“My approach putters are a Zone when I need the stability, but a Banger GT 90% of the time. Jawbreaker when it's touchy or I need a bit of easy”
Their Anax barely flips when thrown flat.
“If I threw the anax on a flat it would barely flip. If I threw”
Used the TD for flat rips with a slight S-turn at 300–350 ft.
“I used the TD for a flat rip with slight S turn. Hades needs to”
Found the Archer is the slow understable disc that handles a powerful forehand: dead straight 175 ft on a hyzer flip, landing flat with little skip.
“I’ve been searching for a slow understable disc that can handle a decently powerful forehand, and the Archer is IT. It goes DEAD STRAIGHT 175 feet on a hyzer flip”
Has many Athenas and finds their glide close to a Teebird's, more stable but not dropping out of the sky; old Big Z and new Ledgestone ESP fly very similarly.
“I have many Athenas and I've never found them to have significantly less glide than a Teebird. They're more stable for sure, but they don't fall out of the sky”
Their first-run Buzzz OSes all feel fine and they use one as a longer Zone.
“My Buzzz OS's all feel fine to me, but all the ones I own are first runs, so maybe they're”
A big Fuse fan whose Origin replaced their favourite Fuse after one round.
“The Origin replaced my favorite Fuse after one round. That’s the most praise I can”
Finds the Mutant and Splice extremely overstable for their arm.
“The mutant and splice were specifically designed for Eagle and his arm speed in mind. They are extremely overstable for”
Has thrown and putted with the P2 since its release, but can't stand the feel of a worn putter for putting.
“I have been a P2 thrower/putter since its release. And I also have this quirk where I cannot stand the”
Likes the PD for backhands: little flip or turn, straight for a while before fading, and it holds anhyzer then comes out at the end.
“I like the PD for backhands and a glow vanguard for the forehand version of that shot. Don’t get much flip or turn form either, but they go straight a”
Switched from the Rainmaker to a Reko, which has a fairly close hand feel but is a bit shallower.
“Switched from Rainmaker to Reko, fairly close hand feel although not the same. Bit shallower and with a tiniest bead”
Has only putted with the Logic, not thrown it, but loves its feel.
“I haven't tried the Logic as a thrower, only for putting, but I love the feel of it. You should”
Bags a 2018 Sexton Firebird and a Lizotte Doombird S-Line FD3; very similar, but the FD3 is a touch faster and glidier, and they love both.
“I currently bag a 2018 Sexton Firebird and a Lizotte "Doombird" S-Line FD3, they're very similar in flight, but I feel the FD3 is a touch faster/glide-ier. I love them”
Bags an S-Line FD that now gets solid flip-up and turn after a season in the bag, thrown about 350 ft.
“I bag an Discmania S line FD, which now flies gets some solid flip up and turn after a season in the bag. I’d like”
Tried the Link in both plastics; it felt nice but they stayed with the P2 for its glide and their confidence with it.
“I tried the Link in both plastics and it felt nice in the hand but so do my p2s. I stayed P2. More glide, more plastic options, more accessible, and”
Their Majesty flies like a PD2 with more glide, and they get a nice stable flight past 400 ft on forehands.
“Mine flies way more stable. More like a PD2 with more glide. I don't have a cannon but I push my PD2 about 325 rhbh on flat to hyzer. My”
Bags a P-Line MD4 that is very straight with a slight fade, very workable, and should beat in nicely.
“I bag a P-line md4 that is very straight, slight fade at the end but very workable and should beat”
Has bagged a Neutron Virus for about four months at 300–350 ft power: it flies true to its numbers and they use it for fairway shots that finish right.
“I've bagged a Neutron Virus for about 4 months now. It seems true to the flight numbers based on my field practice throws. It does what you'd expect depending on”
Their 175 g S-Line DD3 is noticeably more stable than their S-Line DDX.
“My 175 S-line DD3 is noticeably more stable and then the Cloudbreaker gets to overstable”
Has thrown the Enigma for a while and recommends it for straight distance drives, though they can't hyzer-flip it like a Shryke.
“I've been throwing it for a while, and although I recently learned how to hyzerflip a Shryke I am still not able to do it with my enigma. But I'd”
Finds the Essence somewhat straight to understable with a more reliable fade than a River or FD.
“Essencen feels also a bit similar but with my throw somewhat straight to understable with more reliable fade than on River or FD. Definitely going”
Liked their Fission Rhythm, which went far and straight, but it beat in quickly to understable.
“Had a fission rhythm alough I liked the disc it went far and strait it beat in quickly got to understable the Drift may go a bit shorter but is”
Switched from a Fierce to the Pixel and their putting has dramatically improved.
“I'm in love with the Pixel putter, I usually use a Fierce but have starting using the pixel and my putting has dramatically improved. Can't”
Made some nice birdie shots with the Paradox and it is definitely staying in their bag.
“Got some nice shots in with the Axiom Paradox this morning. Flight numbers: 5 4 -4 0. Definitely staying in my bag after being able”
The Insanity is like a multitool in their bag: it feels perfect in hand and they trust it on backhands and forehands.
“The Insanity is like a multitool in my bag. It just feels perfect to my hand and I can trust it in backhands or forehands.”
Finds the Pyro has more hook than a Bobcat, going similar distance before kicking hard at the end.
“Pyro definitely has more hook than Bobcat, will go a similar distance before really kicking. Bobcat is definitely OS, but in a more subtle, pushing”
Bags Eclipse and Soft Neutron Proxies, throws the Eclipse more and finds it a bit more understable, and uses an Envy when more stability is needed.
“I bag eclipse and neutron soft Proxy. I find myself throwing eclipse more and it might be a bit more understable compared to neutron soft one. For shots that require”
Throws the Envy for anything on one angle under 240 ft and putts with it too, as it feels best in hand after trying many.
“Envy for anything 1 angle under 240, Hex to 280, then Crave. 2 angle or Beef, I use Deflector then”
After 8–10 rounds with Time-Lapses they concluded they didn't like the stiffness of the Neutron plastic.
“After about 8-10 rounds with the TLs, I’ve concluded that I really didn’t like the stiffness of the Neutron. That sentiment may soften in the warmer months. But they feel”
Likes the Reactor for long straight forehand shots with a bit of fade.
“I like the Reactor for long straight shots with a bit of fade, Tempo for”
Reaches for the Fireball when a disc needs to hook around a corner or skip; it never flies straight for them.
“When you need a disc to turn the corner, this is that disc [in”
Thinks the Hex is a superior disc: it handles hyzers, anhyzers and flat lines with a long forward fade, and stays reliable.
“I think the Hex is a superior disc. Hyzers, anhyzers, flat for a long forward pushing fade and yet still nice and reliable. The disc I dreamed of 20 years”
Finds the Pyro and Balance the same thrown nose up, but the Balance much straighter thrown nose down.
“If you throw nose up, Pyro and Balance are the same. If you throw nose down, Balance is much straighter.”
Bags an overstable Plasma Crave and a flippy Hokom Crave: the stable one flips a bit and holds a line on hyzer, the flippy one plays like a forehand-friendly Leopard.
“I bag an overstable (plasma) and flippy (Hokom) Crave and they are both glorious for different reasons. The stable ones can be released on hyzer, give a bit of flip,”
Averages 330 ft and their 175 g Bokeh flew like their Star Eagle but with more glide: both test throws went about 330 ft and pushed forward longer than expected in wind.
“I picked one up today, threw it twice to test it out. I average 330ft and max at 375ish Bokeh at 175g with ever so slight of dome - flew”
Their Tempo flies very straight for 80% of the flight with a subtle fade.
“My Tempo and my Votum (7 speed) fly very similarly. Same for my Vulture (10 speed). Very straight for 80% of the flight, subtle fade.”
Loves their Force but hates the braille-like raised writing inside Discraft rims.
“I love my Force, but I hate the brail like raised writing on the inside of Discraft discs' rims (wish Discraft would stop doing this)”
After a few weeks and rounds, the Cicada fits perfectly between their Teebird3 and beat-in Champion Leopard, with more turn than the bird and more fade than the Leopard.
“I've had the Cicada for a few weeks and have played a few rounds with it. I'll say it again that it fits perfectly between my tee bird 3 and”
Thinks everyone should try the Buzzz SS, a slept-on disc they find amazing.
“No they should go with the Buzzz SS. In fact everyone should try it, It's such a slept-on disc, it's amazing. I throw my mids”
Putted with a Banger GT for over a month and liked the thumb groove; the flight was standard for flat putts inside 65 ft.
“I shot with one for about a little over a month. I did like the groove for my thumb. The flight path is pretty standard at the distances I was”
A forehand player who loves the Anax: it flexes easily, though in wind it may not come back from an anhyzer.
“Anax you can flex a lot easier, but if you're trying to flex in the wind, it may not come back out of the anny line. Love the disc as”
Their Big Z Athena got them past 350 ft for the first time and just pushes when released right.
“My Big Z Athena got me to throw 350+ for the first time. Great disc that just pushes if you release it right. I’ve always”
The Buzzz OS is probably their favourite disc: they throw it 400 ft with ease, for flat and downhill lines, though not great for spike hyzers.
“Buzzz OS is probably my favorite disc. You can throw it 400 with relative ease, can hit all the OS lines you need. Not great for spike hyzers but great”
Loves their Origin but sometimes wishes it had a little more low-speed fade.
“I love my Origin but sometimes wish for just a little more low speed fade.”
Bags a Mutant that is surprisingly comfortable, goes farther and is far more overstable than a Tactic; they already have a backup.
“I bag a mutant and a regular tactic. I never found the razor claw particularly more over stable than the standard tactic. Mutant is surprisingly comfortable, goes farther and is”
Thinks P2s are awesome and owns about 15, putting with ones that are four years old.
“P2's are awesome! however I already own like 15, and the ones i putt with are 4 years old. don't”
Tried to make the PD work but it took too much effort to beat in; an Anax was immediately what they wanted.
“I tried to make the PD work, took too much effort to beat it in, then I threw the Anax once and it was immediately”
Got the Rainmaker mystery box and loves them: amazing glide, a better fit in hand than P2s, great feel, and they helped transition their putting grip.
“started using the rainmakers and really love them. They have amazing glide, fit really well in my hand (better than P2s), have a great feel, and have helped me transition”
Bought a Logic purely on feel and loves it for putting; no other putter has felt this nice in their hand.
“I bought a Logic based purely on feel. I knew nothing about it and I love this putter. I haven’t thrown mine I just use it for putting, but honestly,”
Their Glow C-Line FD3 flies like a Champion Firebird but feels far more comfortable in hand.
“The flight of that FD3 is comparable to a champ firebird I have but the FD3 feels a lot more comfortable in my hand (ironically, the hand-feel of the glow”
Still has an old S-Line FD that gets used more than most of their drivers.
“I still have an old S Line FD that gets used more than most of my drivers, but I also”
Likes the Link a lot as a very straight throwing putter, but for putting it died once it slowed down and faded on longer putts.
“I like the Link a lot. It is a great throwing putter, very straight. Putting for me they were ok. For me the putted pretty straight for a ways and”
Their very flat C-Line MD4 has less glide and is a little more overstable than their Fuzion Verdict.
“My C-Line MD4 has less glide and is a little more os than my fusion verdict. Verdict feels better in the hand for me, slightly”
Their max-weight DD3s are noticeably more overstable than their Sockibot Destroyers; they can barely get the DD3 to turn, and its rim feels slightly different.
“My DD3s are more overstable than my Sockibot Destroyers by a decent margin (all max weight, flatish, recent runs). I don't have a huge arm, but I can barely get”
Started throwing Neo plastic a month ago: a great balance of grippy and slick, and their Enigma flies close to its numbers.
“Just started throwing NEO Plastic a month ago. Amazing balance amongst grippy and slick. And the ones I have, ENIGMA and ESSENCE, fly really close to their numbers. Very reliable”
Bags a Neo Essence over a Neutron Drift: it turns a bit more, goes further and holds uphill turnovers better.
“Comparing a Neo Essence to a Neutron Drift the Essence gets a bit more turn out of the box. I bag an Essence, because I can get more distance out”
A first-stock Neutron Rhythm is their go-to turnover disc: it needs a little hyzer to avoid rolling and has a Crave-like late flip with more turn and glide.
“Neutron Rhythm from the first stock batches is my go-to turnover disc and it needs a little bit of hyzer to avoid rolling. A little anhyzer and it rolls nicely”
Played a few rounds with the Pixel and found it very similar to their Rainmakers apart from the rubbery Electron Soft feel.
“Player few rounds with the Pixel and it felt very similiar, only difference being the rubbery feel of the Electron Soft plastic. Planning to get”
Loves the Paradox as a utility disc; it feels almost identical to the Hex and is more comfortable in hand than shallower discs like the Sol or Mirage.
“I love it. Useful utility disc. If I have a straight line at the pin I’m going Hex but I find all sorts of uses for the Paradox. Feels almost”
Has beaten a Cosmic Neutron Insanity into a slow-turning slot; with heavy hyzer it flies a long slow turn.
“BUT I have a cosmic neutron Insanity that I have beat into that slot. I have to give it heavy hyzer, but it'll flip, won't burn over, and has a”
Has a Z Buzzz OS and a Prism Proton Pyro; similar flights, but the Pyro wants to dump harder while the Buzzz OS has more forward fade.
“I have a Z Buzzz OS and a Prism Proton Pyro. I feel that the Buzzz OS has more forward fade and the pyro wants to dump harder, but still”
Loves their Electron Firm Proxy and is considering replacing their Atoms with premium Proxies.
“I love my Electron Firm Proxy, I've also considered getting rid of my Atoms and going to Premium Proxies instead”
Throws Envys up to 250 ft for straight or gentle hyzer shots, switching to a mid beyond that or for more turn.
“I throw Envys up to 250 for straight or gentle hyzer shots. Anything over 250, or mid-shots that require some more significant turn, I will”
Their blue Time-Lapse is a meathook while a friend's purple one was usably overstable; their Force will likely return to the bag.
“My blue one is a meat hook. My buddy's purple one was usably overstable. The Force will probably find its”
Plays in frequent 20+ mph winds in Nebraska, and a Fireball thrown on hyzer face-tanks those headwinds with a lot of success.
“I'm in Nebraska, so I frequently play in 20+ mph winds. Fireball on hyzer just face tanks those headwinds. I'm sure there are other discs that are just as good,”
Just got a Fission Hex and loves it; it feels far more point-and-shoot than their Fuzed Buzzz, which dumps harder at the end.
“I just got my Fission Hex and I love it. I found my fuzed Buzzz to dump a little harder at the end of flight. Hex feels far more point”
Finds the Balance looks beefy because it has so much glide: through the fade it still wants to stay in the air, so it can go far off the centerline.
“The Balance looks really beefy because of how much glide it has. All throughout the fade it is still wanting to stay in the air which is what allows it”
Uses their Fission Crave as a longer Hex; thrown at full power it turns and doesn't come back, but at about 75% it flies as intended.
“I use my fission Crave as a longer Hex. Not sure what your arm speed is, but if you’re throwing it full power then sure, it’s probably gonna turn and”
A weaker thrower who finds the Bokeh a more stable Crave: nice flight, good distance, reliable fade and a nice skip, parking baskets they'd normally drive with a Crave.
“I just threw my Bokeh. I'm a weakling. I would agree it is a more stable Crave. Nice flight. I parked the basket on a couple holes I'd throw a”
The Tempo is their neutral forehand approach disc for 200 ft and in; with angle control it reliably goes left, right or straight and streamlined their bag.
“Tempo is my neutral FH approach disc. Anything 200(maybe a little more) or closer If you angle control well it will go left, right, or straight reliably no problemz. Really”
Lost their Leopard3 and picked up a Cicada that flies exactly the same brand new, and they love it.
“Picked my Cicada up in the pro shop after and didn’t miss a beat. Flies exactly the same brand new.”
Finds the Anax and Vulture both fairly neutral, with the Anax flying further and better.
“Anax and Vulture are both Neutral-ish but the Anax flies further and better IMO.”
Their Big Z Athena flies much like their Champion and Color Glow Teebirds at around 330 ft.
“My big z Athena flies pretty much the same as my champ & colour glow teebirds at around 330'. Maybe”
Their Buzzz OSes are super overstable and overlapped with their Zones, so it never found a spot in the bag.
“My Buzzz OS’s are super overstable and felt like it overlapped with my Zones. I love my Zones so the Buzzz OS never really found”
Their primary mids are the Origin and a slightly more stable Mint Mustang, and they're comfortable switching between them.
“My primary mids are the Origin and Mint Mustang.. I find it very comfortable going between the two with the Mustang being a bit more”
Has both: the Drone is beefy but still glides well as a go-to overstable mid, while the Mutant is a utility disc.
“I have both. The drone definitely is super beefy but still glides well as has a lot of potential as a go to OS mid.”
Carries a 4S Wizard and a D-Line P2 and finds they have a similar tackiness.
“I carry both a 4S wizard and a D line P2, and can definitely say the have a similar tackiness.”
Finds Discmania-made PDs can do the job and even basic C-Line can be very overstable, but doesn't like how they feel.
“Discmania made PDs will also do the trick. Even in basic C-Line they can be very overstable but I just don't like how they feel.”
Finds the Rainmaker very similar to the Birdie Marvel, but incredibly stiff.
“Biggest difference really is how incredibly stiff the Rainmaker is. The Marvel is also decently”
After throwing the Firebird, FD3, Felon and Ahti in multiple plastics and wear stages, they settled on the FD3.
“Yeah, I've thrown all of these in multiple plastics and stages of wear. I settled on the FD3. Felon = too inconsistent. Plastics beat in WAY too fast. Ahti =”
Loves the old Innova-made FDs; bubble-rim and opaque-rim Champion runs were more torque resistant and flew laser straight hit hard and flat at 300–330 ft.
“I love the old Innova FD's there are few different ideas on what the money runs were, for me it was the bubble rim champions or even the opaque rim”
The Link has crept in as their go-to putter over the P2: shallower and flatter with less fade, so more point-and-shoot.
“the Link has been creeping as my go-to putter over my P2. It's a bit more shallow and flatter. I personally do not get as much fade as my P2”
Their one DD3 is a touch more stable than their Destroyers.
“The one DD3 I have is a touch more stable than my destroyers but I”
Bags both the Instinct and the Essence and finds them completely different; the Essence is like a faster Leopard3.
“I bag both and they are completely different. Instinct is a teebird and an essence is a faster leopard3.”
The Rhythm is nice for turnovers on a flat release, or hyzer flips that still finish left.
“The rhythm is nice for some turnover shots on a flat release for me or hyzer flips that will still”
Loves their Electron Soft Pixel: much straighter and glidier than their Jawbreaker Luna, with far fewer spit-outs and rollaways.
“I love my Pixel. I was putting with a Jawbreaker Luna before and the Pixel is a lot straighter and more glidey in comparison. Was everything I wanted out of”
Bagged the Paradox for a while but couldn't find enough reason to keep it in their everyday bag, though it is super fun to throw.
“Yeah I bagged both for a while to try side by side and just couldn’t find enough reason to keep the Paradox in my day to day bag. It’s a”
Bags both an Insanity and a Jackalope and finds the Insanity flips a bit earlier.
“I bag both and find the Insanity flips a bit earlier the Jackalope. Regardless, I'll never not suggest the Jackalope.”
Prefers the Pyro's feel and has better control, especially on forehands, because it comes out of the hand cleaner.
“I like the feel of the Pyro better. I seem to have better control especially on forehands. It comes out of my hand cleaner.”
Their soft-plastic Proxy is fairly flexible and makes them throw it much better, hitting angles and lines more easily than with firmer flight plates.
“It's pretty flexible, and at least in my experience it makes me throw the proxy much better. Not quite as flexible as some other soft neutrons ive thrown though. Soft”
Putts with Electron Soft and Medium Envys, and their Fission Envy has replaced their Buzzz for simple approaches because a putter toss is more predictable.
“I putt with electron soft and medium envys, and my fission envy has replaced my Buzzz for simple approaches. I find a putter toss to be more predictable. I still”
Threw the Time-Lapse about five times and put it up for sale, since they already have plenty of beefy Destroyers.
“Thrown about 5 times, put it up for sale when I got home. Not that it's a "bad disc" but I've owned hundreds of Destroyers”
Finds the Fireball much more overstable than a Firebird and perfect for thumber shots, getting max distance and finishing straight on a thumber line.
“It is much more overstable than a firebird. The best use for a Fireball for most of us mortals is that it has the perfect characteristics for tgr Thumber shot.”
Bought a Hex two months ago after the Buzzz failed them, now owns two Fission Hexes and calls it the best midrange they've thrown.
“2 months ago I bought a Hex since the buzzz was failing me. I’m never going back. The Hex is the best midrange I’ve thrown. I tried the fission Hex”
A Proton prototype Balance replaced the Pyro in their overstable mid slot: great but quite overstable, more utility than distance.
“As for the Balance, it replaced the Pyro in the overstable mid slot in my bag. I have a proton prototype (v1) from the gyropalooza box, though, so it's more”
Hated the Crave: it wouldn't flip up as they wanted and thrown flat it turned early and forever, so they sold it.
“I had the same problem as you. Hated the crave. One of the only gyro discs I haven’t liked, or at least understood. It wouldn’t flip up like I wanted,”
Maxing just over 300 ft at 5000 ft elevation, finds the Bokeh gets a flippy flight like their S-Line FDs combined with a good dump like C-Line FDs or a Neo Instinct.
“For me, who maxes out just over 300, and over 5000ft up, the Bokeh gets a similar flippy flight to both my s line FD's, but combined with a good”
Their Proton Soft Tempo is their backhand mid for 200–250 ft: slightest turn and a smooth finish, and straight off a slight hyzer.
“I do (it's a proton soft) and it's basically my backhand mid at the moment. Prolly in the 200-50 feet range, then I'll Envy putt. Tempo gives me the slightest”
Bought a Cicada on a lark and now throws it every round: easily their straightest fairway, with awesome glide.
“Cicada is awesome. Bought one on lark and now I throw it every round. Easily the straightest fairway I have and the Glide is awesome.”
Once beaten in, the Anax is like a baby Zeus or Destroyer: it holds a line forever and reliably fades, though it's not the best for forehands.
“Anax is a baby zeus/destroyer after you beat it in (not the best for FH). Holds a line forever and will reliably fade at the”
The Athena has become their absolute favourite fairway driver, using new and beat-in ESP ones.
“The Athena has established itself as my absolute favourite fairway driver, currently using only in esp plastic. Has anyone thrown it in big Z/Z and”
Searched a long time for an overstable mid and wasn't satisfied until a Z Buzzz OS, which suits how they play better than the Pyro.
“I searched for an OS mid for a long time and didn’t feel satisfied until I got a Z Buzzz OS. The Pyro is a good disc but the Buzzz”
Recently started throwing an Origin that flies very straight, doesn't fade much and lands softly, and they like how it feels.
“I recently started throwing a Discmania Origin midrange rated at 5,5,-1,1. It flies bery straight, doesn’t fade much, and lands softly. I like the way it feels in my hand—”
Their Mutant is so overstable they've hardly thrown or carried it except in extreme wind.
“My Mutant is so overstable that I've hardly thrown it or even carried it unless it was extremely windy. (Believe”
Tried a D-Line P2 and didn't like it because they aren't comfortable without a bead.
“I have tried a d-line P2. Didn't like it. I for some reason don't feel”
Throws a C-Line PD and a Tesla that go about the same distance, but the PD is much more stable and reliably fights back from flex lines.
“i throw PD C-line and Tesla, goes about the same distance but the PD is alot more stable, can put it on flex lines and be sure that it fights”
Putts with the Rainmaker Flex 2 and likes its shallowness and straight flight, but sometimes loses grip.
“I like the shallowness and straight flight from the disc, but seem to lose some grip at times. Thanks!”
Tried the Felon, Firebird and FD3 and settled on the FD3, which goes further; run variation lets them bag three for different scenarios.
“Tried all three and settled for FD3 Lucid-X Felon was a bit too overstable for me, and FD3 just went further for me. Yes runs are more inconsistent but beacuse”
Their D-Line Glow FD flew like a Teebird when new but is pretty flippy now.
“Also have a D-line Glow FD that flew like a Teebird brand new but it's pretty flippy now. Dunno if”
Putts primarily with the Link, similar to a Judge or Dagger; pretty straight without a hard fade, and they like the Exo Soft.
“I putt with the Link primarily. It's similar to a Judge or Dagger, if you've tried those. I use the Logic for longer putts where I need a little more”
Finds DD3s vary as much as Destroyers: some are flippy bombers with flat wings and others beefy with curved wings.
“In my experience, yes DD3s have the same variance as destroyers. I have some "flippy" bomber dd3 (that have flat wings and moderate dome) and some beef dd3s (very curved”
A forehand-dominant player who throws the Essence far more than any other disc.
“I do throw the Essence far more than any other disc but even my noodle backhand can get the Genius”
Loves their Rhythm, which got them to 280 ft, though they broke 300 ft with a Halo TL3.
“I love my Rhythm and it got me to 280ft. But I picked up an Innova Halo TL3 and broke into 300. I feel like MVP discs have to be”
Used the Pixel for a month after P2s: much glidier, so longer putts take less effort, but more affected by wind and with longer comebacks.
“These are quite a bit more glidey than P2s. I can hit longer putts with less effort but it's also more susceptible to the wind and OAT. Also the comeback”
Passed on the Paradox because it lands so understable that it often cut-rolls the opposite way, which they found counterintuitive.
“I had to pass on the Paradox because the disc tends to hit the ground at such an understable angle that it will cut roll in the opposite direction a”
Never really gelled with their Insanity, and it was booted from the bag once they got a Westside Hatchet.
“I never really jelled with my Insanity. It got booted from my bag after I got a Westside Hatchet. Has a bit more glide, I’d”
The Pyro is their favourite go-to overstable mid; they don't like the Buzzz OS hand feel.
“Pyro for sure. I'm not a big fan of the hand feel for the buzzz os. Pyro is my favorite and go to overstable mid.”
Bags both; the Proxy has more glide than the Envy, goes further off the tee and lets them shape shots better.
“I bag both and the Proxy has more glide than an Envy. I can throw the Proxy further off the tee than an Envy and I can shape my shots”
Throws their Soft Neutron Envy for any shot under 370 ft that needs to go straight or slightly left; their mids rarely come out since they realised how far the Envy goes.
“Ya. I have made this comment before, but I throw my soft neutron envy for any shot under 370 that needs to be straight or slightly to the left. My”
Finds the Time-Lapse is not another Destroyer clone: much more stable with heavy fade but the same distance, and it has a utility place in their bag.
“The Time Lapse is NOT another clone. It's a different disc altogether. Much more stable with heavy fade, but same distance. I personally find utility in what it does and”
The Fireball is their favourite disc and they carry three: a fresh max-weight Neutron for beefy shots, a glidier Fission, and a beat-up Plasma that holds a straight line.
“Fireball is by far my favorite disc and I have 3 in my bag at all times. A fresh, max weight neutron when I need something really beefy. One in”
The Hex feels small in their hand and can't handle the wider power range of a Buzzz.
“Hex feels small in my hand, and can't handle the wider power range of a”
Loves their stock Balance: about 250–275 ft with a pushing rather than dumpy fade, dead straight for about 75% of the flight before gently fading.
“Can’t speak to the Envy, as the Streamline Stabilizer is my main throwing putter, but I am loving the Balance. I can get it about 250-275, and it has a”
Finds the Crave a stable, hold-any-line disc much like the Hex; they still carry a Neutron one for low-ceiling laser beams and reach for it on unfamiliar courses.
“To me its a stable hold any line disc, much like the Hex. I don't use mine a ton anymore, because I most of the holes I play I can”
Hit an ace with their new Bokeh but finds it no game changer: flippier than expected, similar to their Centurions, and their Z Passion flew a bit further.
“Picked it up yesterday and hit an ace! But…. It’s nice, and doesn’t seem like a game changer. It’s flippier than i was thinking it would be and actually similar”
After losing their beat-in Zones, the Tempo fit their stable-but-not-dumpy approach slot perfectly: great in hand and glidey with zero turn.
“when I tried the Tempo of fit perfectly in that stable, but not dumpy approach slot. Feels great in the hand and is glidey with”
Finds the Cicada has a touch more turn than even a somewhat beat-in Drift.
“Cicada probably has a touch more turn than even a bit beat in drift. Also”
Finds the Anax longer than the Raptor with less fade, good when there's some room to swing a line.
“Anax is longer than the raptor and doesn’t fade as much. Pretty good if you have a little room to”
Finds prototype ESP Athenas a notch more stable than the stock run; bags both with backups.
“If you can get your hands on a prototype Athena (also in ESP plastic) they are a notch more stable than the stock run. I bag both a proto and”
Uses the Buzzz OS for more glide and more fade and ground play.
“Buzzz OS for more glide and more fade/groundplay Felon for”
Bags and loves three Neo Origins in different wear stages for hyzer flips, turnovers, straight runs and flexes.
“That's what I'm into right now with the 3 Origins I bag and love. Trying to learn shot shaping :-)”
Their beat-in S-Line PD isn't overstable enough for moderate headwinds, while the C-Line is much more overstable.
“yeah i have an s line thats nice but after beat in, its not moderate headwind over stable, the c”
Loved the feel and flight of a clear mystery-box FD3 before losing it on a shanked forehand.
“I once had a clear FD3 I got out of a Discmania mystery box but not surprisingly I lost the disc after a shanked forehand (see clear disc). I have”
Their Glow C-Line FD had a little flashing on the rim at first, but after a couple of rounds it felt great.
“Glow C-line FD almost had some flashing on the rim. Couple rounds and it felt great. Halo Hawkeye I thought”
Their DD3s have more glide than Destroyers and are less overstable, so they go farther.
“Dd3 has more glide for sure. The ones I've had are less overstable therefore go”
With about 350 ft of power and proper nose angle, the Essence has a consistent turn to the right before flattening out.
“If I throw it with about 350’ of power (with proper nose angle), it has a consistent turn to the right before flattening out. If”
Their Proton Rhythm is noticeably more stable and less glidey than a River.
“The River is much more understable and more glidey than the Rhythm for me, although the Rhythm I have is in proton so maybe they're”
Tried Pixels for about two months but found them exceptionally angle-sensitive, giving lots of metal hits but not many makes; settled on Faiths instead.
“I did not like my pixels. I tried them out for like 2 months and by the end I was starting to get closer but I found them exceptionally angle”
Loves the Paradox; thrown a bit slower than their Hex it holds a fairly straight line before fading right, and the harder they throw it the more it turns.
“I absolutely love the Paradox but I know quite a bit of my friends who have zero idea on how to throw it. I’ve discovered that if I throw it”
Throws a lot of Proton Insanitys and finds their flight very similar to a Champion Valkyrie.
“I throw a lot of Proton Insanity and Champion Valkyrie. They're very similar flight. Then I got the Mystere or Tern for even faster versions”
The Pyro feels better in hand, but they get a much longer flight from a Buzzz OS; their Pyro just dies and hits the ground fast.
“Pyro feels better in my hand but I get a much longer flight with a buzzzos... my pyro would just die and push the ground”
Finds the Proxy better than the Atom for straight driving shots in Neutron, though shallow putters aren't great for them at low power.
“I do feel the proxy is better for this than the atom. I prefer all of these is neutron plastic, and a new proxy or a super beat in envy”
Bagged a Zone, Envy and Proxy but took the Envy out a couple of months ago and doesn't miss it, covering its shots with the Zone or Proxy.
“I was bagging a Zone, a premium Envy, and a Premium Proxy. I found I was mostly using the Envy for backhand (and occasionally the Zone) and the Zone fore”
Bags the Time-Lapse as their overstable forehand distance driver; tested against a Destroyer, Boss, Halo Wraith and X-Calibur, it won for consistency on flex lines.
“I bag it as my overstable forehand distance driver. I love the grip and clean release of MVP discs on forehands, and the Time-Lapse is no exception. I tested it”
Threw Firebirds for about 20 years but switched to a Resistor and Fireball combo, liking the Fireball's slightly higher speed and distance from its lower profile.
“I had thrown Firebirds for about 20 years, but I have totally shifted to Resistor and Fireball combo for my OS fairway needs. For the Fireball, I love the slightly”
Lost their Hex, bought a used one, and threw it in on a 180 ft upshot at Pier Park.
“Lost my hex a while ago. Was in disc goof depot the other day and found a sick used one and headed to pier park. Threw that bish in on”
Their Crave flies like their DX Roc3 but a little further with more skip, sitting between the Roc3 and a Champion Teebird in distance.
“For me, the crave flies like my DX Roc3, but a little further and with a little more skip. My DX Roc3 flies straight for a period of time, then”
Throws the Bokeh and FD and finds the Bokeh pushes a little longer with less fade, like a slightly beat-in FD.
“\^ THIS - I throw both molds as well and the Bokeh seems to push a little longer and not have as much fade. I’d go as far as saying”
The Tempo fills a slot for them as a farther-flying Zone or more stable Envy, and is a straighter forehand approach.
“The Tempo is filling the slot for me of a farther flying zone but more stable Envy. Also a straighter forehand approach. Never realized how much I needed it until”
Picked up a Cicada a month ago, played a few rounds, and loves it.
“I picked one up about a month ago and have played a few rounds with it…and I gotta say…I love it I’ve had a leopard”
Finds the Anax like a glidey Thunderbird that flies straight for a good while with a dependable forward fade.
“Anax is like a glidy thunderbird. It will fly straight for a good while with a dependable forward fade. I”
The Athena is their favourite disc; first-run ESP is best for them and Paul McBeth Titanium ones are a touch more overstable.
“Athena is my favorite disc as well. First run esp is my fav, but the Paul Mcbeth Ti are a touch more OS and are”
Enjoys Color Glow PD runs for stable options but not stock runs: C-Line is very beefy and S-Line feels bad to them.
“I personally enjoy the Color Glow Runs of PD for stable options. But the PD is this kind of weird mold where I like any but the stock runs. C-Line”
Throws the FD3 as their primary forehand disc and really likes the feel of the Color Glow plastic.
“Being throwing the FD3 as my primary flick disc and am looking for a replacement now that they are out of production (for now). Really”
Has two C-Line FDs and a G-Line and throws them well, hitting their lines, but doesn't particularly like them and keeps kicking them out.
“I have two (and a G-line) and I don't even particularly like them. And I actually throw them well. I imagine every time I throw one and it hits the”
Recently picked up a C-Line DD3 that seems more stable than their Star Destroyers.
“Recently picked up a c line DD3 and it seems more stable than my Star Destroyers. Not tried a cloud”
Even with a bit more arm speed they can't make an Essence turn.
“I'm a bit faster than you and I can't make an Essence turn. If you”
Threw their Rhythm as far as their 13-speed driver.
“Then I threw my Rhythm as far as my 13 speed driver. What does that”
Switched from a Thoughtspace Alter to the Pixel: a similar soft texture, but heavy enough that light breezes don't push it around.
“I switched from a Thoughtspace Alter to the Pixel and I'm all in. I loved the feel of the Alter but it was insanely light weight. The lightest of breezes”
Their forehand only works for flicks, so they lean on the Paradox for typical forehand-style lines thrown backhand.
“Paradox is a fun disc to throw. My forehead is trash for anything other than a flick so I lean on the paradox for a”
Finds the Insanity fun, but different runs they've had all fly differently.
“The Insanity is fun, but I've had runs that all kind of fly differently, so it's hard to say which one will”
Has thrown both a Nocturnal Taco and a Prism Plasma Pyro and finds them similarly stable, though the stability shows up differently.
“I have both a Nocturnal Taco and a Prism Plasma Pyro, so I have thrown both and tried comparing them for myself. In my experience, they have very similar levels”
The Proxy is the straightest out-of-the-box thrower they've thrown; they use Plasma for year-round grip, and with enough spin it holds any line.
“Proxy is probably the straightest out of the box thrower I've ever thrown. I actually throw plasma because I love the year-round grippy (cold + hot/humid rounds in midwest) feeling.”
Swapped their Aviar3 for an Envy, which is much more reliable and more comfortable in grip; it is their favourite putter off the tee on 200–250 ft holes.
“I didn't try the AviarX3, but I bagged an Aviar3 for awhile as my throwing putter. I swapped out for the Envy and it's much more reliable, my main problem”
Their yellow-top Time-Lapse is by far the beefiest one they have.
“my yellow top TL is the beefiest one I have by far and all the yellow top TL's I scrolled”
Sees the Fireball as a decent Firebird that is easier to find, but it breaks in a bit faster than a Champion Firebird.
“The bag thing is they tend to break in a bit faster than a Champ”
Liked the Buzzz's flight but hated its hand feel; the Hex feels natural and flies close enough to the same.
“I liked how the Buzzz flew, but hated how it felt in my hand when throwing it. Something just doesn’t feel right when holding a Buzzz. Hex feels like any”
Has about nine Craves and finds weight and shape matter more than plastic: a flat max-weight Neutron Hokom is overstable, while R2 glow ones are super straight.
“I got like 9 Craves… The variation between plastics and most importantly weight is quite large. Different runs easily sober the ground between a servo -1 2 and a relay”
Throwing 7-speeds up to 330 ft, finds their Bokeh barely fades back after turning, while Champion Teebirds act like baby Firebirds.
“That's crazy. My champ teebirds are baby firebirds and my Bokeh barely fades back after turning. I only throw 7 speeds up to 330 ft.”
Uses Envy, Tempo and Zone together and finds the Tempo perfect for a straighter Zone shot or a stronger-finishing Envy.
“I do the very same thing with Envy > Tempo > Zone, and it’s perfect. Need a slightly straighter Zone shot? Great. Need to juice”
Noticed the Cicada's larger diameter versus their Crave; it feels like a fairway version of a Z Buzzz, more like a mid, while the Crave handles more torque.
“First thing I noticed about it is the larger diameter compared to my Crave. It feels like the fairway driver version of a Z Buzzz, same larger size. The Crave”
Has Z and Z Lite Athenas, both pretty stable with a reliable end fade.
“I have a z and a zlite Athena. Both are pretty stable with a reliable end fade. I bag the”
Has thrown one Discmania-made C-Line PD, which was very overstable; their Innova-made PDs are as overstable but they prefer that plastic.
“I’ve only thrown a discmania made pd once, it was a c line and very overstable. I have innova made pds that are just as”
Has thrown one FD3, a Doombird II, and found it comparable to a Marwede Firebird.
“I've only thrown one FD3 (doombird II), but I found them pretty comparable.”
Traded for a like-new 175 g D-Line FD and loves it: a slight anhyzer then fades back, like their Teebird but with less fade and lots of glide.
“I recently traded an old disc of mine for a like new, 175g D-Line FD from Discmania. It's my first discmania disc and I absolutely love it! Picks up a”
New C-Line DD3s vary by colour for them: a purple one has a nice bit of turn at altitude while staying stable with tons of glide, and a teal one is beefier.
“I won a purple one and it has a nice bit of turn even up here at my speed but still very stable and tons of glide. I had just”
The Essence gets healthy turn out of the box and easily gives a turn with a forward fade.
“The essence gets healthy turn out of the box. It doesn't take much to make it give you an easy”
The Rhythm is a comfort disc: the torque resistance and distance of a faster driver with the small margin of error of a midrange.
“For me it's either Rhythm or Athena. There's something about 7 speeds. I think it's because it's got the torque resistance and distance potential of a 9 speed but the”
Switched from a soft Pure to a soft Pixel; its glide helps from the circle edge and circle 2, but they struggle with pace at 20–30 ft.
“Switched from soft Pure to soft Pixel as soon as they were released. Since Pixel is glidey, I def hit more putts from c1 edge and c2, but I also”
Picked up a 157 g Insanity and is still unsure after one round; it flies a little differently from their glow one.
“Picked up an Insanity (157g) to see if I can learn a new disc. I have played 1 round with it, that was yesterday. I'm still unsure about it. It”
The Taco flies straighter than the Pyro for them, and the Pyro's fade is more of a pushing fade.
“The Taco flies straighter than the Pyro for me. The fade is both less aggressive and kicks in later. I agree that the Pyro's fade is more of a pushing”
Recently picked up an Electron Soft Proxy and already loves it; it feels and flies very similar to their former favourite Atom.
“I just recently picked up a proxy in electron soft, and I already love it! My former fav was the Atom, holding them together it seems they're very similar if”
Recently bought an Envy but plans to return it because the Luna feels superior to them.
“I bought the envy recently but think I'm gonna return it, Luna just feels superior to me”
Got a chartreuse Time-Lapse at the first drop and it is the biggest beefcake they've thrown, like a 12-speed Justice.
“I got a chartreuse TL back around initial drop, and holy crap is that disc the biggest beefcake I’ve ever thrown. It’s like a damn 12 speed Justice. Here’s to”
Has tried a 168 g Fission and a 173 g Proton Fireball; the Fission flies and feels much like a Sexton Firebird, relatively flat and aerodynamic.
“I've tried two Fireballs - a Fission at 168g and a Proton at 173. Fission is very similar to a Sexton firebird flight and profile. A little bit more to”
Their Eclipse Hex with the hexagon lattice stamp flies more overstable than a regular Hex, similar to an EMac Truth.
“I have an eclipse Hex (with the hexagon lattice stamp) that flies more overstable than a regular hex. Pretty similar to an emac truth. Trying”
The Crave has their favourite flight: a full hyzer-flip to flat, some drift right, then fade; their 164 g and 172 g Protons are reliable even powered up and tighter than Leopards.
“Crave has my favorite flight to watch, the "full flight" hyzer flip to flat, some drift right, and fade. I throw proton 164g and 172g. I find them really reliable”
Got a couple of Latte-run Bokehs in different weights and they have become a bit flippier than expected.
“I got a couple of Bokehs from that run in different weights, & they've become a bit more flippy than expected. That”
Finds the Tempo flies like a farther Envy, but unbagged it because they liked the Envy more.
“I umbagged the tempo because I liked the envy more and already had a zone”
Finds the Cicada feels just like a flat-top River: very glidey and doesn't move much in the air; their clear one is lovely.
“Yeah it feels exactly like a flat top River. Very glidey and doesn't really move much midair. Plus I got a clear plastic Cicada and”
Fell in love with an Athena after losing a Teebird, and it has become their most reliable disc.
“Fell in love with an Athena when I lost a Teebird on a course with a pro shop. It’s also”
Threw a one-disc round with a new C-Line PD: extremely stable, the plastic fits the mold well and feels great with the perfect mix of grip.
“I just got a new PD today and threw a one disc round with it. Extremely stable in the new c line. The new plastic really fits the mold and”
An FD3 lover with a small stack of C-Lines, who finds a recent Sexton Firebird flies similarly.
“FD3 lover here. I have a small stack of C-Line but have never managed to get my hands on S-Line. Did just acquire a cheap”
The FD was one of their first discs and a great one, though they later replaced it with a Kaxe Z.
“The FD was one of my first discs. Great disc. I replaced mine with a 2017 K1 Glow Kaxe Z later though, and now the”
The DD3 is their go-to distance forehand driver, available in a wide range of stabilities.
“Dd3 is my go to distance forehand driver. You can get them in a pretty wide range of stabilities. I”
Has played one round with their Neo Essence and got a couple of outstanding shots that surprised them.
“My Essence is neo (I think that's the only plastic it comes in?) and I have only ever played one round with it, but got a couple of outstanding shots”
The Rhythm is their comfort disc: it rarely burns over or hyzers out, flies amazing when thrown well and never gets them in much trouble when not.
“The Rhythm is actually my comfort disc too. Wasn't always that way. I put a fun dye on mine and that kept it in the bag long enough for me”
Likes the Pixel, which flies like their Warden, and plans to buy heavier ones to compare with their very light first one.
“I like it. It has the same flight numbers as the Warden, which I also like. I plan on buying more Pixels. My first is”
Throws the Insanity all the time as a flex-line disc for tight fairways and is on their third, though they beat in fast and become turnover machines.
“I throw Insanity all the time. It's a great flex line disc for tight fairways. I'm on my 3rd now, the only gripe I have with them is they beat”
Bags Proton Prism and Plasma Prism Pyros: the Proton is very stable and great on windy days, the Plasma less so, and both are dead on for RHFH approaches.
“I bag two, a proton prism and a plasma prism. The proton is really stable but is extremely nice to have for windy days. My plasma prism is noticeably less”
Can usually throw their Atom a bit farther than their Proxies, but the Proxy has more predictability.
“i have found that more often than not i can soar my Atom a bit farther than my Proxy’s, mine might just be very broken in, but the Atom seems”
Just received a Soft Neutron Envy and was blown away: it feels and flies better than they imagined, perfectly stable.
“Please buy a soft neutron Envy. I just received mine in the mail yesterday and was blown away. It feels and flies better than I”
A beat-in Fission Fireball replaced their Halo Firebird in the bag.
“I have a beat-in Fission Fireball that replaced my Halo Firebird. I”
Their Hexes are their most predictable discs; when practising shot shapes, the Hex just feels natural.
“I love mine, they are the most predictable discs for me. Sometimes I throw around the yard, throw my whole bag at various objects working on different shot shapes. Then”
As a newer player who relied on a Trail for distance, with better form they now get their Crave to fly just as far or further.
“This. As a noob, I had relied on my Trail for most distance shots. Now with a bit better form, I can get my Crave to fly just as far”
Their Latte-run Bokeh goes straight for miles, flipping up with the slightest fade on hyzer.
“I have a Bokeh Latte run, and it goes straight for miles. It will flip up and have the slightest fade at the end if”
The Tempo flies straight before tailing off quickly at the end, unlike the Balance which fades earlier.
“The Tempo is more of a straight flight before tailing off quickly at the end. The Balance begins its fade”
Has four PDs in different plastics, all slightly more overstable than the Animus and better with torque.
“I have 4 PDs in different plastics and 2 Animus. All the PDs are slightly more overstable. PDs handle torque better but the Animus still does a good job of”
Their Color Glow FD3 run was far less stable than regular 9-speeds.
“This run of FD3 wasn't nearly as stable as regular 9 speeds.”
Has an overstable C-Line FD for specific shots and favours a flatter S-Line and a pop-top S-Line Jackal FD, which is very smooth.
“One is a flatter S Line that is almost like an FD 1.5. My favorite of all time is my pop top S line Jackal. I think it was a”
Finds the Essence has far more glide than their Drift and just wants to keep flying, though if released wrong in wind it won't come back.
“the Essence definitely has way more glide. My drift does it’s thing and then just kind of dies. The Essence just wants to keep flying.”
Enjoyed the Rhythm at 5000 ft altitude, though new it was less understable than advertised: some turn with power and a bit of fade.
“Enjoyed the Rhythm, definitely not quite as understable as advertised new. Comparably I found the Streamline Ascend a bit more understable and closer to the numbers. Felt almost like a”
Doesn't like the Pixel's feel in hand, but it has been their best putter since they got it a few weeks ago.
“I dont like the feel of the Pixel in my hand, but since I got it a few weeks ago its been my best putter”
A 69-year-old with a 250 ft max who loves their Fission Insanity for hyzer flips and turnovers; their longest throw ever, about 275 ft, was with it.
“I love my Fission Insanity for straight hyzer flips and turnover shots. My longest throw ever was about 275 with that disc.”
Likes Prism Proton but has fallen in love with their Prism Plasma Pyro.
“Prism proton is very nice, but I have fallen in love with my prism plasma Pyro. And they have sparkle”
In 8 years and more than a dozen putters, the Proxy was the first that felt right immediately: wonderful to putt with and great for controllable drives.
“In 8 years of playing and testing more than a dozen putters, the Proxy is the first one that felt "right" out of the gate. Had an electron soft that”
Bags a Star AviarX3 and a Soft Neutron Envy: same numbers but the AviarX3 is more overstable with more approach utility, while the Envy is a solid putter for longer straight lines.
“I bag both, AviarX3 in star and the Envy in neutron soft. They have the same numbers but are much different. AviarX3 is more overstable and has much more approach”
Finds the Hex more understable than the Buzzz, which suits them, and prefers its feel in hand.
“I found the Hex to be more understable than the Buzzz, which works to my advantage. I also liked the feel in the hand better than the different Buzzz I”
Finds the Crave goes so far that they don't look for a longer Crave.
“Crave goes so far that I honestly dont really look for a disc that's a "longer crave." When I'm looking”
Their 168 g Latte Bokeh turns more than its numbers but glides at least 50 ft further than their 168 g Neutron stock Bokeh, which goes straight then fades significantly.
“My Bokeh Latte (168g) turns more than the numbers but glides at least 50ft further than my neutron stock Bokeh. My Neutron stock Bokeh (168g) goes straight and then fades”
The Tempo is their throw-in disc: on a little anhyzer it lasers at the basket, and its low-speed fade keeps misses close.
“Tempo is my throw-in disc. If I’ve got a line to the basket, I can throw it on a little anny and it’ll laser beam right at the basket. And”
Their new C-Line PD has a slightly higher parting line and flies a little more overstable than their 2020 Innova-made one; they expect a nice beat-in.
“I did and just compared my new C-line PD and my old one (2020 model, Innova mold). The new PD has a PLH that is just ever so slightly higher”
Has thrown both and would replace their FD3 with a recent Sexton Firebird if they lost it.
“I've thrown both and if I lose my FD3 That s what I'd replace it with”
Their 167 g C-Line FD flies incredibly straight.
“I have a c-line fd in 167g and it's incredibly straight. Only thing is i'ts”
Finds the Essence and Drift similar, but the Essence has a bit more glide and is more unpredictable.
“I have both and they fly fairly similar, essence has a bit more glide but is more unpredictable. My Drift”
Their Rhythm flies spot on to its numbers at sea level: a hair less flippy than a Signal but goes a little further.
“My Rhythm is spot on with the advertised flight numbers at sea level where I live. It might be a hair less flippy than a Signal, but it seems to”
Ordered a Pixel alongside a Watt but hates its hand feel.
“The Pixel, like you, I hate the hand feel. The”
A forehand-first player who found Innova options too flippy; the Insanity does what they want, and Proton is their favourite plastic.
“Then I came over to MVP and found the Insanity. It does what I want, and goes where I aim it. Proton plastic has been my favorite, having a nice”
Loves their Prism Proton Pyro, which fills a longer-Zone slot for them with more ground play.
“I love my Prism Proton Pyro and it definitely fills that "longer Zone" slot for me (with more ground play too)”
Their Plasma Proxy is their favourite disc in the bag, with perfect stability and nice glide on hyzer flips; their Soft Neutron is also great.
“Another vote for Plasma here. Favorite disc in the bag. Perfect stability for a Proxy, sometimes I'm inclined to even call it a 4 glide, hyzerflip it and it will”
Throws Electron Envys that go straight with a reliable fade and hold a hyzer, and prefers a beat-in Neutron Envy as one of their most reliable throwing putters.
“Currently I am throwing electrons. I like them because they go straight with a reliable fade. I can also put them on hyzer and they will hold. However, I have”
Flies like a Buzzz but feels amazing in hand because it is smaller and shallower, with lovely plastic.
“Similar flight to a Buzzz but the Hex feels amazing in the hand because it’s smaller and more shallow. And the plastic feels amazing. Buzzz”
Bags two Fission Craves: a light newer one as an understable fairway for left-to-right shots and a max-weight beat-in one with a mild S-flight true to the numbers.
“For reference, I bag two Craves right now, both in fission and in very different weights. One is newer and light, something like 150g, and I use it for the”
Throwing stock and SE Bokehs against a Plasma Servo, the Bokehs always flew further, drifting right a bit more with about the same fade; the higher shoulder feels different for forehands.
“Disagree, I was out throwing a new stock Bokeh and SE Bokeh yesterday against my plasma Servo, all full weight. Bokehs were the same, and always flew further than the”
Their Eclipse Tempo sometimes comes close to their Balance, so it sits closer to a mid than a putter for them.
“I feel like my Tempo comes close to my Balance sometimes so it definitely sits closer to a mid for”
Fell in love with the PD on its first throw: amazing for max-distance forehands at 330 ft, sent flat at full power without turning and always fading back.
“Just recently bought myself one. Fell in love with the first throw! Absolutely amazing for max distance forehand shots (my max distance is about 330ft). Can easily send it flat”
Bought the mellow Discmaniac-stamp FD3s because they fly like Thunderbirds but feel like Firebirds.
“I bought them specifically because they fly like Thunderbirds but feel like Firebirds. If you”
Their Metal Flake C-Line FD is quite stable even with good arm speed, like a new Teebird or Eagle; S-Line is truer to the numbers.
“Even with my arm speed, the metal flake C-line FD is quite stable. Flies not terribly unlike a new teebird or Eagle x. S-line is way more true to flight”
Their max-weight Neo Essence feels faster, less understable and less touchy than a River, and is a reliable open-field near-max distance disc for their arm.
“I throw a max weight white Neo Essence and blue Opto River. I think they fill different roles as the Essence feels faster, not as understable and less touchy than”
Finds the Fission Rhythm more understable than the Bokeh but it goes a mile; they can hyzer-flip it as far as any distance driver and throw much more accurately than before.
“Give the Fission Rhythm a try. More understable than Bokeh but it goes a mile. After years of throwing far but inaccurately with distance drivers I’m now throwing Rhythm, Bokeh,”
Loves how the Pixel flies but didn't love its feel in hand.
“I love how it flies. I just didn't love the feel.”
Throws the Insanity slower and controlled for very straight, accurate, slightly overstable flights; with more power it S-turns beautifully.
“I throw most of my Insanity shots slower and more controlled. So they are very straight, great accuracy and slightly overstable. On higher power as mentioned you will get a”
Loves the Pyro and has a big stack in all three plastics for fieldwork; Prism Plasma is the flattest and most overstable, and Protons the stiffest.
“I love the Pyro and I have a big stack with multiple of each of the 3 plastics for field work. In short you can’t go wrong with any of”
Their Soft Neutron Proxy has a tiny turn then keeps carrying straight until it lands softly; they bag it and an Envy but reach for the Proxy more often.
“My soft neutron proxy has a tiny turn and then just keeps carrying straight until it softly landing on the ground. That barely understable shape suits my eye better than”
Bags four throwing putters from overstable to understable, with the Envy as their reliable-finish option.
“I bag four throwing putters. OS>>>US Zone OS (Beef cake) Envy (Reliable finish) Praxis (Point and shoot) Luna (A little”
Loves the Hex; it just feels more natural in their hand than the Buzzz.
“I love the Hex. Granted I threw one before I threw a Buzzz so it could be because I tried it first, but the Hex”
Loves the Crave's feel, but a new 170 g Neutron one flips all the way over with too much power even on substantial hyzer; hit just right it still flies great.
“So I love the feel and flight (most of the time) of the Crave, however recently I feel as if it’s kind of inconsistent. I bought a new one that”
Picked up a Bokeh with some Craves and admits it is a good disc, squarely in Teebird territory.
“Anyway, I like to try new discs. I picked up a Bokeh along with some Craves recently. God damnit, it's a good disc. Squarely in 7/10 Teebird territory. It's going”
Has a very minimal bag and uses the Tempo as a do-it-all forehand approach and stable putter.
“I have a very minimal bag and it does the job of forehand approach/stable putter. I carry an Eclipse Proxy for straighter putter shots, and if I need more of”
An old G-Line PD has become a staple in their bag; the new PDs are much more overstable.
“So I have this old G line PD that’s slowly become a staple in my bag. The problem is, it’s the dullest green possible and”
Found a used Color Glow FD3 cheap and it flies great.
“Of course it flies great, and I’m playing glow at”
Craves just drop out of the sky for them, maxing around 315 ft, while an FD flies 345 ft with the same power.
“An FD. Craves just drop out of the sky for me, no idea why. I can push a crave to 315’ ish on a rope,”
The Essence goes further than the River and wants to turn more, but in a more controlled way than an over-turned River.
“River is straighter than the Essence, and the Essence goes further. The River has a much lower threshold before it burns over, though. The Essence wants to turn more, but”
After a P2 and an Anode didn't suit their short fingers, the Pixel's shallow rim and tall dome that fills their palm feel great.
“Then I got a pixel which has kept me happy. The rim is shallow so my fingers don’t struggle so much, and the dome is tall enough that it fills”
Has the Insanity in every plastic and swaps them by wind and course; their Fission is a predictable turnover and their light Plasma flies dead straight.
“I have that disc in every plastic, and they get swapped in and out based on wind and what course i'm heading to. I usually carry a Lift also, which”
Loves the Pyro: flat and shallow so they can rip it forehand or backhand, overstable enough for corners and headwinds, and durable.
“Only thrown the Pyro, but I love it. It's flat and pretty shallow so I'm comfortable ripping it full speed forehand or backhand. Quite overstable so it's good for getting”
Said the Envy was the best throwing putter for years, but is starting to think the Proxy is better overall, especially in Plasma.
“I've been saying the Envy is the best throwing putter for years. But the past few years I'm starting to think the Proxy is just better over all, especially in”
Finds the Envy good but almost a 4-speed: they consistently got 330 ft from it while other putters went 300–310, more than they want from a putter.
“Envy's good, but it's almost more of a 4 speed. I was consistently getting 330 out of mine when all my others putters would go about 300-310. That's not what”
The Hex flies like a more beat-in Buzzz for them, with a lower profile and much nicer grip.
“The Hex for me flies like a more beat in buzzz. My most beat in buzzz is much more understandable but for the most part it is a very similar”
The Sarah Hokom Neutron Crave was one of the first real discs they bought and they were very happy with it.
“The Sarah Hokom Neutron Crave was one of the first "real" discs I bought and I was so happy with it. Such a great disc”
Threw one of their greatest drives with the Bokeh, a lefty backhand that flipped up, turned slightly and held laser straight to circle 1; it has kicked out almost all their other fairways.
“I threw one of my greatest drives ever with the Bokeh last weekend. I got to circle 1 on Toboggan Hole 5 with a lefty backhand. Flipped up down the”
The Tempo feels a little longer than their Zone with a little less bite at the end.
“Tempo feels a little longer than my zone, and a little less bite at the end. Really need to throw”
After switching brands, found any Raptor pretty much interchangeable with any FD3.
“Any Raptor is pretty much interchangeable with any FD3. It was the easiest disc in my bag to replace/replicate when”
Their heavier Essence is more stable than their light River.
“Essence is more stable for me but mine is heavier. If anyone”
Switched to the Pixel from a Roach a few months ago and loves it; they're far more confident from circle 2, with lots of glide and a little stability.
“I switched to Pixel a few months ago and absolutely love it, I'm way more confident especially from C2. I had been using a Roach and the Wizard I tried”
Bags Neutron and Sparkle Proton Insanitys: the Neutron flies to its numbers and the Proton has less turn and more fade.
“I bag an Insanity in neutron and sparkle proton. The neutron flies like the numbers while the proton has a bit less turn and more fade. It's not glow beefy,”
The Prism Pyro is their absolute favourite overstable midrange for forehand and backhand, pulled out when they need more distance than their approach discs.
“Prism Pyro is my absolute favorite Overstable midrange. I use it for forehand and back hand. I use an A2 for forehand approach and an Entropy for backhand approach, but”
Finds a Soft Neutron Proxy flies further than any other putter for them: easily 280 ft versus 250–265 ft for others.
“Note that a Soft Neutron Proxy flys further than any other putter. Easily 280’ vs some around 250-265’ for me.”
Uses Envys for anything under 260 ft and a new Eagle Envy has been money: really stable for straight throws and a great hyzer approach disc.
“I use Envy’s for anything under 260ft. I just picked up a new Eagle envy from the pro shop and it’s been money so far. really stable disc for straight”
Has two Hexes, a very neutral disc that glides for days; they throw it 310–320 ft on a good rip, close to their drivers.
“Hex is a very neutral disc. I have two. One is best in and the other is pretty new. I will have many many more to come. I throw my”
Has a board-flat Plasma Crave that flies like a meat hook and another less flat Plasma Crave that is more neutral.
“I second this. I have a Plasma Crave that flys like a meat hook but it’s board flat. My other Plasma Crave is not as”
Picked up an SE Neutron Bokeh and threw it as far as any of their discs; they love it, along with the Electron Tempo, for many birdies.
“I put off checking them out and then picked one up from a seller on Reddit. SE Neutron. I was throwing it as far as any of my discs. Absolute”
A power-forehand player who finds the Tempo can do everything forehand, with the Zone, Toro and Stasis as forehand approach staples.
“Mostly power forehand player here and I gravitate towards over stable stuff for sure. Axiom Tempo can do everything on a forehand. Zone, Toro, DGA”
Finds the Glow FD3 the best distance forehand roller they've thrown and very good for anything that needs to fade hard.
“Glow Fd3 is the best distance forehand roller disc I’ve ever thrown. Really good for anything that needs to fade”
Throws their Essence 280–300 ft, sometimes turning it over.
“I'm throwing a Essence from Discmania anywhere from 280-300, sometimes turning it over. I'm looking”
Has used the same firm Pixel since February and hit lots of long putts more consistently, though it doesn't mix well with wind.
“I’ve been using the same firm pixel since February and i can’t seem to get away from it, tried messing around with other putters around the yard and they just”
Had a very light Insanity that lived up to its name: super unpredictable but fun.
“I had a really low weight Insanity like this. Lived up to its name, was super unpredictable but fun. Then”
Just picked up a Pyro that complements their Zone perfectly, going longer with a similar dump at the end.
“I just picked up an axiom pyro and MVP deflector and they compliment the zone perfectly. The pyro goes longer than the zone with a similar dump at the end”
Loves their Hex: the low profile suits their power grip, the plastic is great, and it is workable and straight flying.
“Love mine, feels great in hand for my BH/FH grips I power grip everything on BH, so the lower profile feels good, plastic is great, super workable and straight flying”
Loved their PDGA R2 Crave, but the Neutron one bought to replace it is the most inconsistent disc they've owned: on hyzer it dumps, thrown flat it burns over.
“I know the feeling. I got one when I signed up for the PDGA and I loved it (I think that was R2 plastic?) But I lost it and bought”
Sold their Bokehs after a month of trying to make them work, keeping S-Line and Q-Line FDs.
“Unfortunately I sold my Bokehs after a month of forcing to make them work. S-Line and Q-Line FD still in”
Primarily a forehand thrower, finds the Essence goes right where they want at 80–150 ft: a wonderful control disc.
“Essence for me. I'm primarily forehand and 80-150 it goes right where I want it to. Wonderful control disc. I”
Switching from the P2 to the Pixel gave them a putter they feel confident with; they love the soft, Neutron and firm plastics.
“I switched from the P2 to the pixel and it has changed my life..... I love Simon so that helped lol but just having a disc I feel confident putting”
Still thinks about losing their Insanity; it was their all-time favourite disc.
“I still think about losing my Insanity on hole 4. Was my all-time favorite disc”
Has bagged a Prism Proton Pyro for a year and really likes it; the plastic beats in very slowly.
“I've been bagging a prism proton Pyro for a year now, really like it, but I would like something in the gap between the prism proton Pyro and my Md3.”
Likes the Hex: nice, straight and predictable, and with big hands it feels better than the Buzzz.
“I like it. Nice and straight. Predictable. I have big paws and almost always power grip it, and for me it feels better than the”
Had an old Cosmic Neutron Crave with perfect stability, but every Crave since has been flippy and unreliable.
“I had an old cosmic neutron Crave and the stability was perfect. Every Crave I've tried since has been flippy”
Finds the Proton prototype Bokeh straight-stable and the best run, the Latte flippier, and stock Neutron and SE straight-stable, maybe a little flippy.
“Bokeh: Proton prototype: straight-stable. The best run, hands down. Latte: flippier Stock neutron and SE: straight-stable maybe a little flippy.”
Loves their very beat-up Essence: thrown flat it gives a little flip and fades back beautifully.
“I have really REALLY beat up Essence that I love. Just throw it flat and it will give you a little flip”
The Pixel just clicked for them; they prefer the standard plastic to the firm and will go back to it as their circle 1 putter if the PA-3 doesn't click.
“I had the same reaction when I got my first Pixel. It just clicked. Haven't found a soft. Have a firm, but prefer the standard. But like most of us”
Has tried Insanitys in several plastics: Plasma flies flat with a hair more fade, Proton is domey and perfect for hyzer flips, Eclipse 2.0 is the most overstable.
“I found plasma to be flat with a hair more fade maybe. Proton is domey and perfect for hyzer flips. The eclipse 2.0 is definitely the most overstable though with”
The Neutron Pyro has a really nice feel and seems to beat in faster.
“The Neutron Pyro has a really nice feel, so I'd recommend it. I feel like it's beat in faster, but”

“Love my hex. I throw it if I need just a smidge of fade at the end of an otherwise”
Can't put more than 60–70% power on a Neutron Crave without it flipping and burning, but bags one for accurate powered-down shots, plus a Cosmic Neutron one that flies straight at max power.
“I can’t put more than 60-70% power on a Neutron Crave without it flipping over and burning. But I bag one for straight shots that need accuracy, and I power”
Their Latte Bokeh was so stable they backhanded it way left into a creek, and it was much more overstable than any of their five Craves.
“I'm not really sure. I don't remember the weight of the Bokeh I had, because it was so stable for me I backhanded it way left and straight into a”
Tried to force themselves into Pixels because they carry better at 30–40 ft, but never liked the feel and missed more, so went back to PA-3s.
“I went the opposite direction (Pa3 -> Pixel -> Pa3), tried to force myself into Pixels (because they carry better for my 30-40ft putts). I told myself even though **I”
Their Eclipse Insanity flies nothing like their Cosmic Neutron one even after beating; it turns briefly then hyzers back.
“My Eclipse flies nothing like my Cosmic Neutron Insanity, even after some beating. In a headwind or a powerful drive, you will notice a familiar turn but it usually doesn’t”
Their Prism Pyro was too overstable to be usable most of the time, more of a utility disc almost as stable as their Justice.
“Too much to be usable most of the time, more of a utility disc. Almost as stable as my Justice. Similar lack of glide. I”
Has used the Hex for a long time and finds it butter, but wants a slightly more overstable version.
“I've been using the Hex for a long time now and it's just so butter. I want a slightly overstable”
Finds the Crave varies a lot by plastic: their Eclipse Crave barely flips and feels like a 0/2, while their Proton Crave flips and fades a little as it should.
“Crave varies a lot between plastic. My Eclipse Crave barely had any flip at all, and feels like a 0/2 disc. My Proton Crave flips a little and”
Their first Bokeh, a Latte, was the perfect neutral-stable disc they could throw straight and far; newer regular Bokehs from friends are all more stable with hard fades.
“My first Bokeh was a latte and it was the perfect level of neutral/stable, could throw it on a straight line so well and so far. Unfortunately lost it, and”
Their putting improved after switching to Pixels, though beyond 40 ft their Glitch works better for them.
“My putting improved since switching to Pixels, and it definitely wasn’t because I got better at putting or practiced more. However, at >40’ I use my Glitch and it’s better”
Their Cosmic Neutron Insanity turned a little, but the Halloween Eclipse one fades hard when thrown flat, with less distance.
“My cosmic neutron insanity would turn for me a little bit, but this one only turns if I make it turn. If I throw it somewhat flat, it wants to”
Bags an Eclipse Pyro alongside a soft Proton Echo and can forehand it with no problem.
“Absolutely. I bag an eclipse one alongside a Streamline soft proton Echo, and you can forehand it no problem even though it's nowhere near as”
Loves their light and heavy Fission Hexes, which can take a beating.
“I love my Fission Hex. I have a light one and a heavier one that I throw. Those things are great. They can definitely take”
Has a lightweight Eclipse Crave that is a straight shooter with barely any turn or fade, and they love it.
“I have a lightweight Eclipse Crave that is a straight shooter. Barely any turn or fade. Kind of weird but”
Finds the Bokeh very straight with no fade.
“Bokeh is very straight in my experience with no fade. Eclipse Servo is overstable compared”
Just got some Pixels and thinks they're in love: spin putting feels better and they feel more consistent and confident on circle-edge putts.
“Just got some Pixels delivered today and I think I’m in love. I’ve never found a putter that I truly got along with, but that might change now. Spin putting”
Their flat-top Halloween Eclipse Insanity is their sacred disc for hitting gaps: dead straight with fade at the end.
“I throw similar to what most have said. The one not mentioned is I have a flat top Halloween Eclipse Insanity and it is my sacred docs for hitting gaps.”
The Hex doesn't do it for them: they prefer the Buzzz's extra stability and slight fade, and the Hex blows around in wind.
“the Hex just doesn't do it for me. I like the Buzzz since it has a little more stability than the Hex. Both are straight shooters, but it is nice”
Loved their first Crave but it got too flippy with use; a Cosmic Neutron one solved it, and now they have overstable, neutral and flippy Craves.
“When I first got a crave I absolutely loved it, but I did find it getting too flippy the more I used it. Everyone said buy a Servo. I just”
Recently bought a Pixel as a throwing putter and loves how straight it flies, with no turn and basically no fade, and relatively far.
“I have recently bought Pixel for throwing putter purposes and I love how straight it flies (no turn and basicaly no fade) and also relatively far for me. The thing”
The Insanity took their Crave's spot: a Plasma Insanity flies stable like a Trail, while a beat-in Neutron flies true to its numbers.
“Insanity took the spot of my Crave, Plasma Insanity stable flys like a Trail while neutron beat in, flys true to the numbers. Odds are”
The Hex made them realise they could throw forehand: stuck on a hillside 40 ft from the tee, they flicked it and it soared dead straight as far as their drive would have gone.
“Hex was literally the disc that made me realize I *could* throw forehand, and got me to want to start throwing forehand. Prior, I strictly would flick a FH to”
Has thrown Neutron and Fission Craves, and their Fission one has gotten pretty flippy.
“i’ve thrown neutron and fission Craves, and my fission one has gotten pretty flippy. flippier discs need more touch and more spin,”
Finds the Pixel much deeper than a Pilot, with a rounder shoulder and smaller bead, and it flies straighter with less fade.
“Pixel is a good bit deeper, has a much more rounded shoulder, and a smaller bead. Flies straighter with less”
Bags a Cosmic Neutron Insanity and uses it for most of their drives; it is a perfect disc for them.
“I bag a cosmic neutron Insanity and it's the disc I use the most for drives. It's a perfect disc for me.”
Loves their Fission Hex for forehand approaches and sniper shots out of the woods: stupidly accurate, and they park it despite a 260 ft max forehand.
“I do love having a fission Hex for FH approach or get out of the woods with a sniper shot Forehand. It’s stupid accurate like cheating. My max FH is”
Has a 173 g Neutron Crave that flies straight as an arrow thrown flat.
“I have a neutron Crave that flies straight as an arrow when thrown flat, it”
Took their Proxy out because the Pixel now gets thrown on most open approaches.
“Took out my Proxy as well. I do still bag an Inner Core for extreme turnovers and an A2 for hard fade, but the Pixel gets thrown on most open”
Is happy using a Hex in place of a Detour and a Reactor, since they throw hard enough to turn it over easily and keep several beat-in Hexes.
“I'm pretty happy with a Hex instead of a Detour and a Reactor. But I throw a little harder and can make the Hex turn over pretty easily. Also I'm”
Finds the Pixel, Pilot, Ohm and Nomad feel and fly basically the same for circle 1 putting and uses them interchangeably.
“Pixel, Pilot, Ohm and Nomad all feel and fly basically the same (for C1 putting) to me, and I use them (as putters) interchangeably. Maybe Ohm and Pilot are a”
Was given a Hex and likes it as an alternative to their Champion Mako3 go-to midrange.
“I have a Hex, it was given to me by someone. I usually use a Champion Mako3 as my go to mid range, but I do like the Hex as”
Uses their Westside Adder only for utility and crazy wind.
“when a tornado passes by my westside Adder gets some action. But that disc hasn’t”
Recommends Innova-made PD2s: fairly glidey and not stupidly overstable, but never turning over by mistake.
“Champion elixir or Innova made PD2. They’re actually pretty glidey and not stupid overstable but you’re never going to turn it over by mistake.”
Their overstable distance driver is a Neutron Defy that feels beefier than 11/5/-1/3 and flies close to their Zone; they get nice hooks around 350 ft.
“My overstable distance driver is an axiom neutron Defy. 11/5/-1/3, but it feels beefier than that and flies a lot closer to my zone, so I don't really throw the”
Uses a Spectrum D1 mainly forehand: they can throw a full anhyzer flex line and it always fights back out.
“Prodigy D1 Spectrum - Mainly just for forehand only, but I can throw a full ani flex line and it will always fight it's way”
Their Sockibomb Supreme Orbit General is their most reliable overstable disc, used backhand and forehand.
“Dyanmic Discs Sockibomb Supreme Orbit General - This is my most relaible OS disc in the bag. Use for both”
Their Plasma Wynn Dragon Dimension is overstable but not dumpy, with a pushing fade regardless of headwind; it glides and they trust it on a 370 ft water carry.
“Plasma Dimension (Wynn Dragon 2 Run) It's OS but it's not dumpy, it has a good pushing fade at the end regardless of the headwind. It is a 14.5 speed”
Prefers a Halo Star Destroyer as their overstable driver, switching to a more overstable 2022 Calvin Destroyer when conditions call for it.
“Halo star destroyer, AB venom, halo star Xcaliber, pd2 etc… I prefer the halo star destroyer typically but if the conditions or course calls for it then I’ll put in”
Bags a Z Force that keeps them under 420 ft: very stable, but it flies further than their beefy Halo Star Firebird.
“I bag a Z Force that essentially prevents me from going over 420 feet. Very very stable, but flies farther than my beefcaked halo star”
Their beloved Ballista Pro is domey, feels great forehand and backhand, and goes very far.
“Otherwise, its my beloved balista pro. It is domey and feels great on both forehands and backhands. It goes very far too.”
Their VIP Sword and Paul McBeth Hades perform great in headwind, maybe not as overstable as wanted but their go-to when it matters.
“I have a vip Sword and Paul McBeath Hades that perform great in headwind while maybe not as overstate as you may want they are my go to for headwind”
Finds the Shryke great for hyzer flip and turn but inconsistent, while the GStar Charger is more consistent; they throw 400 ft and max at 425.
“Shryke is great for hyzer flip and turn, but it's not a super consistent mold in my opinion. The charger is more consistent for me, the Gstar plastic will you”
Agrees the Shryke isn't consistent but has an amazing Champion F2 one; Star and GStar versions are all over the place.
“Yeah agreed on not the most consistent, but damm you can find some good ones. I’ve got a champ F2 that’s amazing, just wish I”
Bought a Hades expecting an easy flip-up, but it was more stable than any of their Champion Orcs; a Scorch from a friend flies how they expected the Hades to.
“I bought one hoping it would be a nice easy flip up disc but the one I got was more stable than any of my Champion Orcs. Idk if I”
Their beat-in Ballista Pro flies almost identically to their new Ballista, both in Opto, and they just broke 400 ft with the Ballista.
“Ballista or beat in Ballista Pro. My beat in Ballista Pro flies almost identical to my new Ballista, both in Opto Plastic. I just broke 400' with the Ballista yesterday.”
Their beat-in Mayhem started as a flip-up-to-straight disc and now turns almost its entire flight with a hint of fade, going for miles.
“Beat in Axiom Mayhem. Started off as a flip up to straight, now it turn’s almost its entire flight with the barest hint of fade at the end.”
Their Fission Time-Lapse just doesn't want to stay in the air; they can throw their Bokeh further than the OG Time-Lapse.
“I have a Fission Time Lapse. That thing just does not want to stay in the air. I can get my Bokeh farther than the”
Their flippiest distance driver is a somewhat flippy Nuke.
“The flippiest "distance" driver I throw is a sorta flippy Nuke. I don't like throwing”
Bags a Q-Line DD1, Q-Line DD3 and Supreme Trespass for max distance, averaging a little over 400 ft and hitting 430 with all of them.
“My driver lineup for max distance is my Q-Line DD1, Q-Line DD3, and Supreme Trespass, I routinely average a little over 400 with them and have hit 430 with all”
Their newer Reblend D3 is their standard straight disc, more stable than a Star Destroyer but less than beefy Halo ones; they can put max effort in without burning over.
“I'm exactly the same speed and spin as you and my standard straight disc (slight turn and finishes right in front) is the new(ish) D3 in Reblend plastic. I'd put”
The Trespass has been their go-to: they very consistently get 425 ft with a good flip-up and turn.
“Trespass has been my go to for a while now. Can very consistently get 425 with good flip up and”
Switched to the Grace, the best Wraith they've had: slam it flat and watch it fly, a gentle turnover, or a little hyzer for a bomb.
“For that reason, I've switched to the grace, it's the best wraith I've ever had, slam it flat and watch it fly, gentle movement over, or a little bit of”
Their flippy distance driver is a Champion Daedalus that always makes an S-curve.
“My distance flippy driver is Champion Daedalus. Always makes S curve. On forest courses I”
Prefers a beat-in Wraith for a flip-and-turn flight: it goes as far as their Destroyers without fear of burning over.
“Beat in Wraith, 11 speed I know. But it’s honestly my more preferred for the flight you describe and goes just as far without fear of burning over. I also”
Finds the Kastaplast Älva a decent substitute for their old CD3s, with very similar flights.
“I've also found the Kastaplast Alva to be a decent proxy for my CD3s. Very similar flights. Prior to these,”
Their S-Line DD3 has become their farthest-throwing disc, turning with minimal hyzer or a flat release.
“S-Line DD3 has become my farthest throwing disc. I get the turn with minimal hyzer angle or flat release. Can't go super hard on the”
Finds the OTB 2023 Vanish flies more like 11/6/-1/2 than 11/5/-3/2: it goes forever, fits their hand, and set their 465 ft PR.
“OTB 2023 Axiom Vanish. Those things are NOT 11/5/-3/2, more like 11/6/-1/2. Goes on forever, fits great in hand and looks cool, if you can find one still (go as”
Has used a Tursas for years and finds it the most versatile midrange they've used, a more trustworthy Mana.
“I’ve been using a Tursas for the last few years and it’s been the most versatile midrange I’ve ever used. It’s a Mana I can”
Lost their Tursas and got a Fox, which is also very good.
“I sadly lost mine and ended up getting an Innova Fox. It's actually very, very”
The Detour is their go-to flippy mid, with a Paradox for hyzer-flip-and-drift shots and rollers.
“Detour is my go to, I still bag a paradox too for those Hyzer flip and drift to the right”
Swapped a too-flippy Uplink for a Fission Rhythm and hasn't looked back; dialed back, it still holds lines well.
“Had the same problem with my SE (Neutron?) Uplink. I swapped it out for a Fission Rhythm and haven't looked back. If I need a shorter shot, I'm”
Made the same change from the Uplink and finds the TSA Mana exactly right.
“I just made the same exact change from the Uplink and the Mana from Thought Space is exactly what you're”
Got a K1 Hard Svea that is great now and will season into a hyzer-flip or turnover mid for woods shaping.
“Svea. I got it in k1 hard and it is great now and will season in to be a hyzerflip or turnover mid for shaping”
Loves the Neo Origin: it starts slightly flippy and beats into a thing of beauty, with a crazy amount of glide.
“I love the Neo Origin. Don't pay attention to the numbers these start out slightly flippy and they beat into a thing of beauty, not”
Bags a Founder, which is comically flippy but a great roller and get-out-of-jail disc.
“I also bag a Founder, which is comically flippy. But, it’s a great roller and get-out-of-jail disc.”
Finds the Ascend flippier than most flippy mids at full power, but at 70% it flies like a perfect flippy mid with extra speed for low ceilings.
“My left field option here is the Streamline Ascend, it’s a 6-speed so kinda that hybrid between a mid and a fairway. Handfeel is really similar to the Kastaplast 6-speeds”
After years of love-hate with flippy mids, settled on the SoL as their flippy putter/mid hybrid: feels like a putter with nearly mid distance.
“I’ve had love/hate relationships with the flippy mid for yearrrrrssss and have settled on the Sol to be my flippy putter/mid hybrid (feels like a putter, almost distance”
Finds the Zone SS amazing, with a beautiful flight, and usable in most cases where they'd throw a flippy mid.
“More of an approach than a mid, but Zone SS is amazing imo. Beautiful flight for me and I can usually throw it in most”
The EXO Hard Link was the first beaded putter they tried and it felt right: slightly overstable, good for throwing too.
“EXO Hard Link, the first beaded putter I tried and it just felt right. Slightly overstable, good for throwing too.”
Putted with Aviars that got flippy in strong winds; the K3 Reko is grippy, flat and super reliable in the wind.
“K3 Reko. I had putter with Aviars for quite some time and they’d get a little flippy in strong winds or broken in. The K3 Reko is grippy and flat”
Putts with the Pure for its shallow hand feel and neutral-to-slightly-understable flight, especially in Zero Medium Moonshine.
“Pure for me, I like the shallow hand feel and the fact that it’s neutral to slightly understable. I also really like the zero medium”
Putts with the Nomad: low profile, stable, micro bead, glides but not forever.
“Nomad. Low profile, stable, micro bead, glides but not forever. Pixel too”
Chose the PA-3 because it is neither deep nor domey; 300 Soft and Ultra Soft feel amazing, the slight bead is comfortable, and it was the most consistent for them.
“The Prodigy PA-3. I don’t like deep or domey putters and the PA-3 is neither. Prodigy’s 300 soft and ultra soft plastic feels amazing too. The slight bead is also”
Likes the Glitch a lot, but it glides a little too much and becomes a problem in windy conditions.
“I like the Glitch a lot but for me I feel like it glides a little TOO much and it’s a problem in windy conditions.”
Calls the Pilot the best putter, though their soft electron one sometimes gives them the worst spit-outs.
“Pilot Bros for life. It's the best putter but sometimes my soft electron cosmic whatever gives me the absolute worst spit outs.”
Putts with a Jawbreaker Challenger: they like the little bead and it isn't too deep for their hands.
“Jawbreaker Challenger I like the little bead and it’s not too deep for my hands. Plus they always look cool”
Finds the Crown like an Envy and PA-3 combined: shallow, flat top, nice bead, glides for days with a reliable finish; BT Medium is grippy.
“CROWN GANG 👑 to me its like an envy and a pa-3 had a baby. And that baby is beautiful. Shallow, flat top, nice bead,”
Switched to the P2 after hearing pros putted with it and hasn't switched in six years.
“P2. Got a Challenger SS in my starter pack. Watched an ITB where Simon and Eagle said they were putting with P2’s. Bought one to try it. 6 years later”
The Roach was their first beadless bullet-nosed putter and it instantly clicked.
“Roach. First beadless bullet nosed/convex winged putter, and it instantly clicked. Like Harry Potter finding”
Loves the shallow feel and neutral flight of the Electron Soft Proxy, which grips the chains nicely.
“Proxy, electron soft - love the shallow feel with a neutral flight. Grips the chains just nice. Envy, eclipse -”
Their Eclipse Envy has the same hand feel as their Proxy with a touch more stability for the wind.
“Envy, eclipse - same hand feel with a touch more stability for the wind.”
Got a glow Watt as a freebie and it putted so nicely in warm-up that they used it that tournament round, did better than usual, and have putted with it ever since.
“It felt so good in my hand and putter so nicely that I after 10 minutes I said screw it and used it as my putter that round and did”
Picked up an XT Invader that felt great, shallow and grippy, with low glide so they putt better in the wind.
“Picked up an XT Invader and it felt great in hand - shallow and grippy. Low glide so I could putt better in the wind.”
Loves the Judge's hand feel but finds the slightly glidier EMac edition better for putting.
“Yep, love the Judge hand feel, but the slightly glidier EMac edition is better for me. I still use a regular Jusge”
Calls the Praxis the straightest throwing putter; they already have two aces with it and the rim isn't too deep.
“Thoughtspace Praxis.....straightest throwing putter, already have two aces with em. The rims not too deep and they just work for”
Putts with the P-Line Flex 3 Color Glow P2x, the firmest P2x available: flat, shallow, stable and low glide.
“The firmest P2X you can currently buy: P-line flex 3 (color [unusable] glow). Flat, shallow, stable, low glide, and firm. Closest thing you can get”
Putts with the Judge, a proven consistent putter, and values cheap five-disc packs for practice.
“Judge. Proven consistent putter. You can also get 5 disc putter packs cheap on Amazon. Being able to have 10”
At elevation, prefers an understable putter with a bit of glide, and the 300 Soft PA-5 is their go-to for most situations.
“I live at elevation, so I opt for an understable putter with a bit of glide. The Prodigy P-A5 300 soft is my go to”
Putts with the Deputy: shallow enough, quite glidey, straight for a long way outside the circle, and a good flip-up forehand for weird gaps.
“Deputy. Idk. It’s shallow enough, pretty glidey, and it stays straight for quite a ways outside of the circle. In a pinch, it’s a good”
Finds the Luna great for putting; the rubbery eraser plastic feels controllable while shiny plastic feels slippery.
“Luna. Great for putting. The rubber eraser plastic feels controllable in hand. The shiny, candy shell plastic feels slippery to”
Found the Reko not glidey enough for long putts, but the Tuff came out and they immediately made long putts; they love it after testing about 25 putters.
“Tuff came out and immediately I was making the long putts. Still use Reko as my straight throwing putter. Use pure for hyzerflips. But for”
After wanting to like the Luna for three years, found they prefer beaded putters and the CT Challenger OS is the sweet spot: not too glidey, and misses don't go far.
“CT Chally OS. I wanted so badly to like the Luna for the better part of my first three years playing. I’ve also tried the P2 and Aviar. I finally”
Putts with an Electron Firm Atom: low profile with good glide, and since switching from a KC Aviar and P1x their putting improved a lot with a cleaner release.
“Electron firm Atom, low profile and good glide. Everything inside 90ft. Started with KC Aviar then P1x, but when I changed to Atom my putting improved so much. It gives”
Switched to the Fierce after loving how it felt in a store, and has loved it ever since.
“I eventually switched to the Discraft Fierce. I saw one at a local store. Loved the way it felt. Bought it, and”
Tried the Invader, Aero, Dart, Bullfrog and Xero and has the most consistency with an XT Xero; XT plastic seems to grab the chains better than anything.
“Now the past year ive tried the Invader, Aero, Dart, Bullfrog and Xero. I liked all those putters but the one i bag and have the most consistency with is”
Switched from Aviars to the MVP Ion in 2010; its depth feels much better in hand and they love the bead.
“MVP Ion. I used to putt with Aviars. I picked up the Ion back in college when MVP first started in 2010 because it looked cool, and after putting with”
Uses a gummy Discmania P1 as their putter for rain or cold days.
“Gummy plastic putter for rain or cold days: Discmania P1”
Throws their Sensei when they want a harder plastic that will skip.
“I throw my Swan and my Sensei a good bit. Swan if I want a straight shot that will stop where it lands and my Sensei if I”
Throws a Star Aviar3 as their straight-to-overstable throwing putter.
“Star Aviar3 - straight to overstable Approach Discs”
Has two Zones for overstable shots: an ESP one that is straighter and a beefy Metal Flake Bearheart one.
“Zone for overstable (I have two, one ESP that's straighter and a metalflake Bearheart Zone that is a beefy boy)”
Threw the Stasis for the first time and found it absolute money as an approach putter.
“Stasis and PA5 are the approach putters (got to throw the stasis for the first time today, absolute money) Jarn”
Finds the VIP Maiden awesome and it goes very far.
“VIP maiden cause it’s awesome and goes far AF. Range”
Uses the Range for straight shots they don't want going far and forehand anhyzers that need to hold the line; very useful and fun.
“Range for straight shots I don’t want to go far AF. Or forehand anny I want to hold the line, this disc is pretty useful all around and just flat”
Likes their Warden for shorter putts and most crosswinds, a Focus in a tailwind, and their Harp for headwinds.
“I generally like my Warden for shorter puts and most crosswinds, my Focus for putting in a tailwind and my Harp for headwinds.”
Runs a Fierce, Luna, Challenger OS, Zone SS, Zone and Zone OS from understable to overstable; they all get used, but the Zone OS gets the most.
“Understable putter Fierce, neutral putter Luna, slightly overstable Challenger OS, more overstable Zone SS, more overstable Zone, more overstable Zone OS. They all get used, but the Zone OS gets”
Finds the Tempo laser straight with a baby fade on a flat release, fade with a soft skip on hyzer, and a flex that finishes straight on anhyzer; great within 250 ft.
“Tempo. Release it flat for a laser straight shot with a baby fade. Hyzer? Fade with a soft skip. Anhyzer? Flexes out and finishes straight. Love it for anything within”
Switched from the Envy to the A5 because they think it handles the forehand better.
“Prodigy A5. Used to throw the envy but I like the A5 more because I think it handles the forehand better than the envy.”
Puts the Berg on a line to smash chains, and if it misses it doesn't go so far that the comeback putt is hard.
“Berg. Put it on a line and try to smash chains, if you miss it's not going so far you won't make your comeback putt.”
Uses a K1 Soft Berg X for anything that needs to stick hard or go straight to overstable.
“Got my Synergy Series Plasma Range for anything that requires flip or turn and pair it with my K1 Soft Berg X for anything that needs to stick hard or”
Their Z Athena pushes left for most of the flight without dumping.
“I’ve used both a Z Athena and a glow Evader that fly just like that”
Their favourite throwing putter is the Mercy: it fits their hand just right and has the right stability for their power to go straight with a touch of fade.
“For me, it's the Mercy by Lat 64. Fits in my hand just right and has just the right stability for my power level to go straight where I throw”
Finds the Tesla not its numbers but a beef cake out of the box; it is less beefy than their Volt but not by as much as expected, and nothing like an Insanity.
“This, the Tesla is not its numbers, it is a beef cake out of the box. I throw a Tesla and volt and while the Tesla is less beefy than”
Finds the Inertia legit: more stable and flatter than their Valkyries, and perfect for full-flight forehand bombers at their arm speed.
“Inertia is legit. More stable than my Valks and flatter. Perfect for the forehand full flight bombers at my arm speed.”
Finds their Prism Trances like a glidier Wrath.
“I would say my Prism Trances(OTB and Circuit event) are like a more glidey Wrath.”
Recommends the Streamline Lift, especially Eclipse: it slots nicely between their Insanity and Tesla, their two main 9-speeds.
“My vote is a Streamline Lift. Especially in eclipse. It slots in nicely between the insanity and the Tesla (my two primary 9 speeds).”
Finds the Relay slightly more stable than the Crave and so more reliable: thrown hard it is very straight with barely any turn or fade, while the Crave is sensitive to release angle.
“Yeah relay has slightly more stability than crave. Hence the reliability. When I throw it fully and hard, it’s very straight - barely turn, barely fades. Crave’s less stability make”
Threw a Wrath in this slot for a long time and still likes it, but it has less glide than they wanted.
“I was in this same situation, I threw a Wrath in this slot for a long time and still like the disc a lot. It”
The C-Line MD1 surprised them: a bit deep, but with a changed grip it glides for days, arrow straight or a gentle turnover, though not a forehand disc.
“MD1 was a really surprising disc on the course. I thought I'd never be able to throw it properly as it's a bit deep, but I changed my grip a”
Their C-Line FD feels good: not a Crave, but a useful straight-to-stable flight that is staying in the bag.
“C-line FD felt good too. It's not a crave, but I certainly could find the straight to stable flight useful. I just threw a couple”
Tried a few throws with a K1 Falk and found it slightly too understable, with some throws burning over, though the plastic feels good even in the cold.
“Thanks for the tip. I tried a few throws with the K1 line Falk, and it was a bit dubious for me - couldn't get the hang of it as”
Has a couple of DDs: one is slightly too understable even for their arm speed, especially in wind, but a Color Glow DD is quite usable with nice turnover lines.
“I do have couple of DD's - one of them tends to be slightly too understable even for my arm speed especially in the wind. I have a”
Nothing will kick out their VIP Anvil; it is probably their most thrown disc after putters in the woods and their get-out-of-jail card.
“Nothing will kick out the VIP Anvil. Its probably my most thrown disc (after putters) as I'm playing in the woods mostly. It's my trusted”
Their very old Z Buzzz hasn't been bumped by a Salamander: they can make the Buzzz do whatever they want as a midrange.
“I really wanted to love the Hellbender Salamander but it hasn't bumped my very old Z Buzzz out of its spot yet. Different discs, but I can make the Buzzz”
Finds the Warship (straight) and Tursas (slightly understable) excellent mids, best in VIP plastic.
“Westside Warship (straight) and Tursas (slightly understable) are excellent mids. I like them best in the VIP plastic. Reko in”
Can throw a Halo Roc3 at max power and know it will fly a line drive without turning, and it isn't so glidey it needs finesse.
“counterpoint: halo Roc3. i can confidently throw that disc at max power and know it’ll fly like a line drive without turning, and isn’t so”
Has tested many overstable mids and finds flat glow and Proto Glow Gators the best; the Caiman feels weird in hand to them.
“No one throws it because the Gator and Gator3 are just better. I love my OS mids and have extensively tested flat Gators, Gator3s, Caiman, Halo Crocs and Whippets. Flat”
Tried many discs in this slot over the years and now bags a C-Line MD3: straight with a reliable finish while feeling right in hand.
“I tried a lot of discs in this lot over the years and C-line MD3 is what I bag now. Tried roc3, wasp, whatever the DD one is everyone used”
Finds a new C-Line MD4 very torque resistant: it goes straight, straight, straight until it fades at the end.
“A new C-line MD4 however (which I currently don’t bag) are very torque resistant and goes straight straight straight until”
Throws their C-Line Method in a headwind when their Iron Samurai 4 isn't stable enough.
“However, when there is headwind I throw my C-line Method due to the IS4 not”
Finds the Resistor has the same flight path as their Pyro but about 20% more distance; eased up with a bit of flex it is almost identical.
“I would say the Resistor has the same flight path but has about 20% more distance. If I ease up on it with a bit of flex it's almost identical”
Throws a Pyro as their max-stable mid and a glow Reactor for softer stability and softer flexes.
“I throw a Pyro for max stable mid, and currently going back and forth with a glow REACTOR for softer stability, softer”
Still uses a Compass, finding it a tick more overstable than their Warship.
“Still use a Compass, but it's a tick more overstable imo so it may also”
Finds their Matrix flies like their EMac Truth, and throwing about 70% sidearm they much prefer the Matrix's shallow, flat feel.
“I feel like my matrix flies most like my eMac truth, but I throw about 70% sidearm and I much prefer the shallow flat feel of the matrix for that.”
Their backhand stable mid is the Malta: stable but not too stable.
“Backhand is Malta for me. Stable but not too stable. On forehand”
Their Proton Reactors are firm and comfy, handle forehand fairly well, and fly a solid straight line with a small, trusty fade.
“Mvp Proton Reactor Mine are with etb open stamp from couple years back, dunno if they have Reactors available in Proton generally. Firm and comfy, handles forehand too fairly well.”
Bags a Lucid Justice for probably the most predictable results ever.
“I also bag Lucid justice for likely the most predictable results ever, aswell as Tursas”
Finds the Axiom Panic a little too overstable at their 390 ft max.
“Have you ever thrown an Axiom Panic? It's a little too overstable for me, but I max out around 390.”
Their Fuzion EMac Truth flies fairly straight flat with a reliable fade, can be shaped with anhyzer and come back, and holds a mean hyzer.
“Fusion EMac Truth. Fairly straight when thrown flat with reliable fade at the end of the flight. You can shape it with some anny, and it will come”
Couldn't find a straight-to-slightly-overstable mid between their Caiman and Fox until the Jay, which is basically an MD3 and they love it.
“I can’t recommend a Innova Jay more. I was in the same spot, had my OS (Caima) and US (Fox) locked in but struggled to find a good straight to”
Their stock Balance is overstable but not like a Pyro: beat in a bit it flies straight for 65–70% of its flight with a strong fade, their go-to for distance control.
“As far as I know it’s just a stock Balance. A lot of people are saying they are “beef”. Even though it’s definitely an overstable disc, it not like a”
Has enjoyed the Archive lately: with some height it holds anhyzer before leveling out, stands up to slight headwinds and is true to its numbers at 280–310 ft.
“I've really enjoyed the Prodigy Archive in this slot as of late. Give it some height and it will hold some anny before leveling out. Stands up to slight headwinds.”
Uses the Drop more and more as a mid and utility disc; it doesn't fly quite as overstable as 4/3/0/3 but fights out of a turn and holds up in wind.
“I've been using the Discmania Drop more and more for my mid/utility disc. 4,3,0,3 - but it doesn't fly quite that overstable for me. Enough so to fight out of”
Bags a Champion Gator and three KC Rocs from newish to five years of wear to cover slightly overstable to understable.
“KC Roc for me. I bag a Champ Gator and 3 KC Rocs that go from newish to 5 years of wear to cover from slightly over to understable.”
Grabs their Mako3 when they need a laser with minimal fade and loves it on forehand.
“If I need something to be a laser with minimal fade, I’ll grab my Mako3. Love it on my forehand, some may consider it understable.”
Their stable workhorse mid is the Glacier, with the MD5 for overstable and the MD1 for straight.
“Stable workhorse is the Glacier. (Overstable is the MD5, which gets more use.) My next step down is an MD1,”
Used to throw the Anchor, which feels very like a Roc3 but flies a lot more stable, closer to a Pyro.
“Anchor feels very similiar to a Roc3 but flies alot more stable, kind of similiar to a pyro in my experience.”
Finds Prodigy run-to-run consistency hit and miss: a new M2 flies like an M4 and an older M4 flies like an M2 should.
“I’d say that while they’re starting to make some really high quality discs again the consistency run to run is still hit and miss. I just got a M2 that”
Recommends the Halo Star Lion: it won't easily turn and burn, has surprising glide and distance, and a gentle but reliable fade every time.
“In your case I suggest the Halo Star Lion. Its not going to easily turn & burn on you, has surprising glide and distance with gentle but reliable fade every”
Their go-to mid is the Streamline Runway: it never flips over and rides a long way straight before fading.
“I don't think people really use it but my absolute go to is the Streamline Runway. Never flips over and rides a long way straight before the fade. Absolute beast”
Throws an R-Pro Pig on every shot under 300 ft: reliable, cheap and available, though it takes a bit more juice to push past 250 ft.
“R-pro Pig. If the shot is under 300, I'm throwing a pig every time. They are reliable, cheap, and available. Takes a little more juice to push them 250+ than”
Really likes the Göte: lots of glide, fairly neutral and not as fast as many mids.
“I really like the Kasta Gote. It has a lot of glide, is pretty neutral and not as fast as”
Loves the Echo but finds the Neutron ones not stable: dead straight unless the wind picks up.
“Love the Echo, but that thing is not stable, at least all the Neutron ones I tried. Dead straight for”
Loved their Kastaplast-made Kaxe, but a House of Discs Kaxe they bought is poor.
“Had a Kasta Kaxe and loved it; bought a HoD Kaxe and it is poor.”
Loves their used Opto Explorer, a forehand workhorse almost from day one that helped things click for them as a new player: forehand hyzer flips for days.
“Love the Opto Explorer! The awesome guy that runs my local shop recommended one that he saw on the used shelf; it's become my forehand workhorse since almost day one.”
Their Premier FD is pretty stable: a C-Line FD is happy from 70% to 100% power, but the Q-Line needs 85% or more to fly well.
“My premier FD is pretty stable as well. The c line FD i have is happy from 70% to 100% power, the Q line needs 85% or more to fly”
Finds the Explorer a bit more overstable but the same in practice, while their Teebird3 is massively overstable.
“Explorer might be a bit more overstable but it’s the same in practice. Teebird3 I found is massively overstable.”
Of a Champion Teebird3, Q-Line FD and Simon Line SE Bokeh, the Bokeh flies straightest and furthest without a strong fade but still reliably fades.
“Try an Axiom Simonline SE Bokeh. I have the champion Teebird 3, FD Qline, SE Bokeh, and the Bokeh flies the straightest the furthest without a strong fade, but still”
Really likes their Z Confetti Cigarra: a very reliable fade, a little more stable than the FD.
“I also really like my Z Confetti Cigarra which fits in after my Teebird 3. It has a very reliable fade, but it’s a little”
Their Champion and Star Sidewinders and Opto Saints are all more stable than their Trail, so however they release it, it is flippier than discs known to run understable.
“My Sidewinders (Champ and Star) and Saints (Opto) both have more stability than the Trail I have, so regardless of how I’m releasing it, it’s flipper than discs that are”
Finds the Fission Insanity becomes very flippy, as Fission seems to have no limit to how far it beats in, while Proton, Neutron and Eclipse reach a point and stay.
“And the Fission Insanity becomes very flippy. Fission is the only one of MVP's premium plastics that seems to not really have a limit for how much you can beat”
Finds the Bear not completely straight but not super beefy either, and very accurate to its flight numbers.
“Bear is not completely straight but not super beefy either. Pretty god damn accurate to the flight numbers.”
Throws around 300 ft and finds the Saint Pro glides out with a very reliable fade.
“I throw around 300, and at that speed, the Saint Pro does glide out but has a very reliable fade. Op is asking for a”
Doesn't think it gets better than the Eagle for a 7-speed overstable driver, though flat ones are hard to find without hand-picking.
“At the 7 speed category I agree. I don't think it gets better than the Eagle for a 7 speed”
Finds the Glory truly overstable and glidey.
“Glory, I don't know anyone who throws hard and calls a teebird overstable . Glory is truly overstable and glidey”
The Evader is one of their favourite discs: they lost one mid-round and immediately bought another.
“What do y’all know about the Dynamic Discs Evader? It’s one of my favorite discs. Was playing a round, lost it, and had to immediately”
The Idog isn't super overstable but goes further than any 7- or 8-speed they've compared it with.
“While they are not super overstable the IDOG goes further than any 7 speed and 8 speed I have tried and I compared it to”
Loves the Stig: super versatile and their first choice for a one-disc round.
“STIG all the way. I love mine and if I had to play a round with only 1 disc, the STIG would be my first”
Finds the Malita flippy but with a reliable fade: the flip of an understable disc, the fade of a slightly overstable one, and great glide.
“How about a Malita? It's flippy, but has a reliable fade to it at the end. It's weird, it's got the flip of an understable disc, the fade of a”
The ESP Buzzz SS was one of their first 'this flies really nice' moments: it does small flips and works really well for flick-type forehands.
“Buzzz SS in ESP was one of my first “Oh damn, this thing flies really nice” moments. It can do small flips and works really well for flick-type forehand shots”
Their DX Rollos always turned into rollers, but a new 180 g Halo Star Rollo is much more stable, with just a slight right turn on RHBH.
“For some reason the new Halo Star 180G Rollo I got. I had DX Rollos and they always magically turned into a roller, the Halo Star is way more stable”
Just over 400 ft, their headwind disc is a Fuzion Enforcer: it will fade and gets surprisingly good distance for its beef.
“I’m just over 400 and my headwind disc is a Fuzion Enforcer. It will fade and it gets surprisingly good distance for its beef.”
Uses a Halo Boss in the very overstable slot: easy to find with a good dome and aggressive wing, it carries a split second then fights hard back to earth.
“Halo Boss for me at the moment. I carry 3 Nukes for most golf distance shots, and I’ve found that in the massively OS slot the more stable Z Nukes”
Their beefiest driver is a Neutron Teleport, followed by a Neutron Simon Line Time-Lapse that a pro called very overstable.
“Beefiest is MVP Teleport in Neutron Plastic 2nd Beef Axiom Time Lapse Simon Line in Neutron Plastic, had a pro throw that one at league last night and he even”
Throws fairway drivers 300 ft and gets no turn from their Hex, so it sits in their stable midrange slot rather than neutral.
“Yeah, I can throw fairway drivers 300 feet, and get no turn out of my Hex... Which is fine, it's just in my "stable midrange"”
Their Opto Ice Fuse is by far the most consistently straight disc they have thrown, great for low-ceiling approaches and dependably hitting lines.
“I really love my Latitude 64° Opto Ice Fuse. It is by far the most consistently straight disc I have ever thrown. It’s great for low ceiling approaches and dependably”
Took their long-bagged Mako3 out because their Dart more consistently flies 200 ft straight in the woods, and R-Pro is wonderful at stopping where it lands.
“I have had a Mako3 in my bag for a long time, but I took it out recently because my dart was just more consistently flying 200' straight for me”
Finds the Tournament Gatekeeper flies a bit more like a Hex than a new Buzzz: a little straighter but with some fight at the end.
“Tournament Gatekeeper from westside discs. It is bit more similar to the Hex in flight then a brand new Buzzz. So a little bit more straight but has some fight”
The Wombat3 is the straightest disc they've thrown on a slight hyzer flip: a little turn but zero fade, which they haven't found in any other disc.
“Wombat3 is the straightest disc I've thrown, but it requires a slight hyzer flip. Has a little turn but actually zero fade, something I've not found in any”
Their favourites are the Claymore, like a beat-in Buzzz with more glide, and the EMac Truth, which flies like an overstable run of Buzzz.
“My favorites are Claymore and Emac Truth. The Claymore is like a beat in Buzzz with more glide while the Emac Truth flies like an overstable run of Buzzz.”
