Can't throw a Dragon; it flips over immediately for them.

“I can’t throw a Dragon. It just flips over immediately.”

Lately throws their Dragon better than most of their discs for length and accuracy; for them it is a very straight disc.

“Oddly enough in the past few weeks I've started throwing my Dragon better than most of my other discs in terms of length and accuracy, and have never thrown it over water. For me”

With a 230-270 ft backhand, finds the Dragon a great hyzer-flip disc, and on a water-heavy course it has saved them many lost discs since it floats.

“We all have pretty weak arms (230-270 backhand), and the Dragon is a great hyzerflip disc for us. Our home course has a lot of water, and the Dragons have easily saved us from”

Bagged a Dragon for six months for confidence over a water hole; a fine beginner disc, but they moved on.

“I had a 6 month relationship with my Dragon. Bought it for confidence on a tricky water hole on my home course. It is a fine disc for beginners, but”

Their Dragon flips over and burns into a cut roller every throw, with only 7-9 speed arm.

Likes their Dragon as the only disc they trust to curve right consistently as a right-hander.

“Personally I like my Dragon. Only disc I trust to constantly curve to the right even though I am right”

Their DX Dragon is more reliably understable, with a hint of fade, than their Signal or Underworld.

“My DX Dragon is more reliably understable (with a hint of fade) than my Signal or Underworld. So that's what I reach for when I want a shot with those”

Has two max-weight Blizzard Champion Dragons that still float and throw much better than the DX Dragon they tried years ago.

“I have two April Fools Blizzard Champ Dragons that are max weight 173-5 and somehow they just float. And throw much better than I expected after trying a DX Dragon like 15 years ago”

Loved the Dragon before their form and strength improved, then used it as a known turnover disc before giving it away.

“I loved the Dragon before my form and strength improved. Then I used it for a specific, 'know it's going to turn' disc before I gave it to a new”

Got a second Dragon to practise water shots and made some very nice shots; it does a couple of things nicely and can be retrieved.

“I've recently gotten a second Dragon to practice the water shots with and today I did some very nice shots with them :] Took me a bit to relearn how I used to throw”

Finds the Dragon a garbage disc because the floating plastic messes with the flight; would rather lose a disc in the water.

“Personally, the Dragon is kind of a garbage disc. Because they have to use floating plastic it really jacks with the flight. I'd rather lose a disc into the drink”

Used a Dragon for years and it was their farthest disc by far with a big hyzer release, though it is ruined after just two full-speed tree hits.

“I used a Dragon for a few years. And for a long time it was my farthest flying disc, by far. Dragon requires a big hyzer release, on a high(ish) line, to allow for”

Took a few months to learn the Dragon; as a 150-class disc the mistake was too much power, and once they powered down they appreciated it.

“Dragon took me a good few months to actually learn how to throw it. Since it's 150 class the biggest mistake was way too much power. Once I powered down I was able to”

Found a Dragon and couldn't get it to do anything but roll, even with extreme hyzer.

“I found a Dragon & haven't been able to get it to do anything but roll. Even with the most extreme hyzer. It is definitely”

The Dragon was their first disc, used until their form improved; its light weight makes it unpredictable in wind.

“Dragon was my first disc. I used it until i got better form and power. The light weight makes it really unpredictable in the wind”

Finds the Dragon seriously flippy once you gain distance; they had to release it almost vertical to stop it flipping over.

“Dragon is pretty seriously flippy when your game starts to draw out more distance. I threw one once and had to release it almost perpendicular to the ground to keep it from flipping all”

Took their new Dragon for a test run and really likes it; it glides very nicely.

“I took my Dragon for a test run this morning, and I really like it! I would throw my Escape and then my Dragon. It”
