[Legacy] Legacy Icon Cannon

[JFibeZZZ]

Have heard good things about this disc and couldn't help but order one. I can throw a Lat64 Havoc about 375 feet at my current skill level. Will the Cannon benefit me at all?

 

[mance]

What colour and weight did you get the Cannon in?

 

[JFibeZZZ]

It is a white 168 cannon

 

[plastic cannon]

Some Havocs are all over the place. Some stable, some flippy. If you have a overstable Havoc, I could see the Cannon out distancing it by a few feet. The Cannon also has a larger wing than a Havoc if I recall.

 

[Sean Johnson]

Lightweight Cannons are the furthest flying disc that I've ever thrown. Also, I agree with Plastic above - I've never had much luck with pinning Havocs down as far as flight path.

 

[JFibeZZZ]

Hmm well maybe the Cannon will surprise me and push my Nukes out of the bag. The Havoc already kind of has but I keep an old nuke and nuke ss in the bag for tournament water shots hah

 

[mance]

White Cannon I recall is one of the flipper colours... if im not mistaken

Yellow is overstable... yellow cannon in pinnacle can be used for headwind

the cannon will outdrive your havoc if you get out the full potential of the disc... just my opinion.. not a fact

 

[ThrowinGhost]

In my personal opinion, Cannons are much more predictable than Havocs, allowing you to trust it more and therefore (in my opinion) get more distance out of them.

 

[pask2155]

Which plastic is most stable for the cannon?

 

[Ted Bratton]

The cannon I threw was more like a boss than a katana I would say fyi.

 

[primal dg]

I have a cannon I throw for sidearm d. Slight anhyzer and it flips up and glide forever. Thrown flat huge s turns. Its a little beat up.

 

[pask2155]

So is icon or pinnacle more or less stable?

 

[lion]

Icon white cannons at 166-168 are pure bombers. Good choice.

 

[eday1022]

Agreed, white in high 160's Bomb, also have blue that is flying pretty good but a little more overstable. I had a purple that was way to overstable, for me anyway.

 

[magilla311]

I've got a purple 167 pinnacle cannon that is the most stable disc I've ever seen. Being new to Legacy, it almost scared me off. Guess I need to find a white icon 167. Anybody have one they want to part with?

 

[jpacetime]

I have 2 purple icon 167, and they were flippy out the gate. I have a red icon 175 that's real beat in and its my go to distance driver, fh about 450'. I had a 167 pinnacle that was really beat and was dead straight. Love the cannon!

 

[elnino]

i have six cannons trying to figure out which to try out.

i'm going to sell them if my test disc doesn't fly like the ratings.

how do the pinnacle edition fly?

 

[Johnny_Crunch]

The Rampage throws nothing like the flight numbers. Look forward to your review of the Cannon.

 

[Dr.feelgood]

I have a dark blue cannon and it flys like a beat in nuke and gets as much distance. I've been having problems with mine going to high though.

So i bought two Cannons and two rampages today, one Icon and pinnacle of each. The cannons are both 168 and the rampages are both 174 and both my Cannons are quite a bit more stable then my rampages.. The cannons both fly similar in both plastics, nice stable flight, was throwing them into a 10+ headwind and getting nice S flight into the headwind, and parked a 385'ish hyzer hole that normal gives me some troubles hitting the right line with my D1. But the pinnacle rampage was a little more stable then the icon, the icon was just straight flippy. Both of them would flip WAY off line into the headwind, and the only hole i even got anything out of the rampages was a 410' anny hole and the icon rampage held the line all the way to the basket and fade out a little past it. I really liked the cannon even though i bought it to try next to my D4, but it flies as a nice in between my D4 and D1, which is what i bought the rampages for, not expecting them to compete with my D4... So is this normal? I remember the rampage being a nice stable driver when the first came out, so did i just get two freaks? Or whats the norm with these two discs?
