I'm not a fan of the Zone, personally. However, i love watching someone flick one from about 200-250. Runner up.... Thumbers with a monster.
 
Really expensive plastic that's "better" than others a la CE
 
I fell in love with the 08 worlds FLX Drone because it's more ESP than stock FLX, yet they don't make an ESP Drone (which they should). Doesn't mean I'd ever pay an outrageous price for one lol
 
My buddy throws a first run Excalibur a country mile. I can't throw it 250', but he can flex that thing every bit of 500. Crazy to watch a disc go that far just fighting the urge to turn the whole way, then it's like the disc gets so far it just gives up and floats to the ground.
 

Comet, Banger, Sting, Crank (can you tell I like watching MJ?)

I really like any kind of hyzer flip to straight or slight turnover. Thrashed Vulcan overhand loop-dee-loops that turn into straight shots way up in the air would be my favorite, but they're altogether too rare.
 
Discraft Trackers. I've watched a friend rip them 500'+ on a few occasions, and it is a thing of beauty. Other than that one specific mold, anything really. I just like watching frisbees fly.
 
Aroebie Epic when a player uses the disc for a big tomahawk/thumber. Also cool to see others using a disc that more players do not use, even if it is just the plastic type of a disc. Was really cool to see an uncle use a Condor once, the same way one would use a ROC or Wasp just not as fast or nearly as far.

I remember yeaaars ago seeing a video where Shoestrings said he used his putters for "up to 400'" and I thought... horsesheets.

Then I saw some pros ripping putters on 350' flat-ground holes and realized how amazing these guys are. I can get a putter to 250' without a problem and feel absolutely fine with that. But 400' is a driver or a roller for me. No way I'll ever match that insanity.
 
Actually, my answer is any distance driver when Garrett Gurthie is in go-for-it mode.


Example: 2018 Ledgestone Open round 3 hole 8. Go to the 21:35 mark in the video below.

Smash!

I just happened to look up and see that shot while I was following Ricky's card. It was nuts. Thanks for posting the video- I was really wishing I could have seen where a couple of his shots ended up that round.
