The Zone OS is on the way. I would like to hear from anyone that's thrown one & any comparisons to all the other os mids out there. I've always considered the Zone to be a mid more than a putter. It would have been cool to see them release a Zone SS as well to complete the trilogy.
 
I saw the clip of Uli throwing them...looks unnecessarily overstable. I don't think there's a lot of time where most people throwing a zone are asking themselves "is this disc overstable enough for this shot?" Seems similar to the captain's raptor - something for pro players but mainly useless for the masses
 
I'm surprised no mainstream company has had the chutzpah to make their own version of the Stego, they just keep coming out with stuff like the Sockibomb Slammer, Zone OS, A1, Tactic whatever. It needs that top spoiler if you want the real beef, you can make it as flat top and "traditionally" beefy as you want and it will never act as well in a headwind as a Stego

My guess is the Zone guys are starting to get jealous of A2s. A2s can be ridiculous beef, guys like Gannon have said its by far the most unique to prodigy offering.

I'm sure that's it. The A2 is unique in its driver like feel in an approach disc.
 
Beside the lack of epilepsy warning on their website that was humorous to flip through. Don't think I want to buy anything, but a 140g disc that flys like a tilt is interesting.

It seems they may print to order to an extent since they offer all kinds of weights of all the discs. I enjoy that their stable glidey midrange is named Dwayne.

Hard to tell if the whole thing is a joke (at $300 a pop for 13 pdga approvals) or if it's a genuine attempt to break into the market with something new.
 
Watching Paul Ulibarri throwing the Zone os reminded me of the flight of a Full Turn Shortcut.
Not a Stego but still too overstable for me.
 
I think every single "OS" disc has a "SS" counterpart ( but a few SS disc dont have OS counterparts). . .so hoping for a ZONE SS down the line.
