Sooo... Its a BigA*$ Disc with a BigA*$ Wing and TONS of Dome. Cool :|

None of these discs have really any dome. They are all pretty flat. Unless you have actually held one you probably shouldn't chime in about the disc cause you really have no idea what this disc is or does

Watched the video noticed those things. Voiced my opinion. Your Welcome
:gross:

Edit. I know what it does. It flys

My two have a dome (and one is lopsided)… but they're testers, so I'm waiting for my group order trio to arrive before I decide how I like these discs for my own game.

The two testers I had were nowhere near -5 or even -1.5 HSS. More like 0 to -0.5. I was able to hyzer flip them into a good wind only - the rest of the time it was straight to fade. Very overstable.

And the weight and grip are noticeable. I have bigger hands, but these are much wider feeling than the Lace or any of my other high speed drivers.

I don't have much of a forehand, so I can't speak to that.

Half the time the discs went as far as or farther than the Ace Race discs (the only other discs I took to the field to test), and half the time they were well short of them due to the relatively early fade.

Almost all of the testers were max weight and first discs off the line before the machine was dialed in, which is why they are marked tester.

Again the diameter makes these discs want to be thrown low and flat due to the rise you will get from the increased lift on the larger flight plate. Thrown high or nose up like most high speed drivers your going to get an earlier fade than usual.

Basing flight characteristics off forum posts from varying skill levels is difficult. My suggestion is go out and get one and find out for yourself. Like any disc it won't suit everyone however it does give you an option of something totally different on the market which we haven't seen in awhile. Lower weights coming soon will make it a must have.

I'm taking my 185g "X Test" out to throw today. Plastic feels nice, CryZtal FLX-ish.

 

[Titan037]

lol

The only way to find out is for you to throw it, it's hard to compare to other disks, and it's hard to compare throws between players, because we all have different skill levels and this is a completely different disk. If you want to find out if it's crap or not you need to throw it

Not very salesman like. If you want to get you product into people's hands, you can't put them on blast. And if a person watches the video, they should be allowed to make a statement about what they see.

Again not very saleman like.
What was the purpose of having people test it? You are telling us we can't listen to the people ya'll choose to test?
You just want us to buy it, regardless of what others say?

I have seen many people throw "discs" via video and compare "discs" via video. It has helped me and others make a decision as to whether or not I might like that particular "disc". So, now you are telling me I am wrong?

You are right and I apologize for what I said. I just didn't like the way, big ass disc with big ass rim and big ass dome sounded when while the disc is big, the dome is not. The last thing I want is people getting the wrong idea about this disc. Again my fault and I will just keep observing

Testing this 186 out right now. Its really comfortable because of how wide it is. Makes my Volts feel tiny.

 

[DG Trucker]

Hell yeah, Mike C makes awesome test flight videos. And he has the power to really show us how this woday will handle the speed. Can't wait to see it. =D

Quick question about the company name.

Is the A long sounding or short sounding?

I have always thought it in my head as the long A. like Say-Lee-Ent
but after watching that video he pronounced it..........Sah-Lee-Ent

 

[Titan037]

I say sayleeent. not sure what it means but it sounds cool as hell lol

 

[BirdieMachine]

Watched that youtube video, looks like it flies 250 on a RHBH anhyzer line and then dumps hard straight left. Thus far this giant disc is a giant turd, Let's see how Mike C can make it fly. Maybe compare it to a Volt Mike?

No offense to Mike C, but...

NOT EVERYONE IS MIKE C!

We all can't throw 500 feet and make discs bend to our will. Don't judge a disc solely by how one person throws it, whether that person be a pro or am. Take all the info and make an informed judgment.

Sorry, I just get frustrated sometimes. I think Mike C represents the .01 percentile of power and form, so of course anything he throws will look amazing. For the rest of us, it is good to have varying types of throwers out there, too.

 

[AndyJB]

The rim is just so ****ing huge. Ergonomics and all that nonsense won't apply to the fact that my fingers are physically incapable of wrapping around the warp speed sized rim. I imagine my throws would look eerily similar to that on the posted video, as would most everyone (be honest, guys.)

But calling this disc a turd is like calling a Nuke a turd. It's not a bad disc like, say, a Groove is a bad disc, it just seems to fit a certain power/form/skill level. Like a Nuke. Bazinga!
