I find the lack of Harp love in these forums disturbing.
Gotta get them in the Zone!

I can't stand Rocs, but I really enjoy the Harp. I prefer VIP, I'm not really a baseline thrower
I do not like rocs at all but live harps also. I agree they're similar in a lot of ways, just don't like rocs or Innova at all. Anyway gotta have baseline plastics.
Rocs and Harps feel SO alike. And fly very alike. And season and cycle very alike.
So that is a weird statement.
I havent had any board flat rocs in that sweet sweet swedish polyurethane yet. Besides, the Harp seems a little bit more overstable and a Roc

Harps are much more flat than Rocs, and that makes a difference.
Its funny I picked up a couple Zones to try and replace my Harps. I generally prefer non-beaded and with all the comparisons and Zone love I figured they would be perfect for me and I have to say just not a fan.
Partly seemed the Zone with softer plastic retained the OS a lot more and required more power to get the same shots I put on the BT Harps. The firmer plastic Zone behaved when thrown like the BTs but I wanted the softer plastic for upshots and to stick better. I then really prefer the consistency of driving with the VIP Harp as I was getting much more length from the VIP Harp vs the Zone. I really gave the Zone a decent try but ended up going back to the Harp.
As far as the questions about BT vs VIP? I started with a BT Medium and loved it. Picked up a Hard and Soft to compare. They all stay pretty OS but gain glide very quickly vs the VIP. I hit rocks and trees quite a bit with them and the Medium and Soft behave pretty similar. The soft has taken a lot of abuse and after quickly getting a bit straight has settled into a very reliable flight. I prefer the soft, but that is because I use it as the main approach disc and need something that will stick and not bounce on hills a lot. It has retained enough OS that I can give it a nice nose up anny release for controlled upshots.
The VIP has really retained its OS well and flys damn near the same as brand new. It does seem to like staying in the air longer than the crystal FLX zone which felt plastic wise close to the VIP.
I use the VIP as basically an OS midrange. The BT soft as an approach.
BT Hard Harps paired with KC Rocs are just magic. If you like stiff baseline.
Are they really?
Are they more flat that flat-top DX and KC Rocs (that you can buy all over the place)? No.
Are they flatter than 2004 and 2005 USDGC Glow Rocs? Not really.
Are they flatter than CE Rocs or the 2001 Remakes? No. No they are not.
WANT.2x Ricky Glow Harp is Zones overstable. It is a beast.
