I have only had 1 KC and 3 DX, but my KC developed turn before most of the fade beat out while the DX all lost fade first and then the got the slow drift to the right. It is a small sample size (I do not wear out discs quickly at all), but I prefer the DX flight and plastic feel enough that I...
Out of curiosity: I had my drive land in a puddle when playing league yesterday. The line of casual relief followed the puddle perfectly until the OB path. Is there any option for casual relief in this case? I just marked it and played from the shallow part of the puddle, but was curious if...
Throwing into a lake actually sounds like it would be a lot of fun. I heard someone who did something similar used sort of a floating buoy as the target and would swim to where their disc landed and play it from there until finishing the 'hole'. I think Hydras were their choice.
Regarding the...
I got an armor Iguana for Christmas and I have really liked throwing it. I definitely agree with all said earlier in the thread after having thrown it. Also the two closest comparisons I would make from my collection are a tournament warship and a slightly beaten in kc pro roc. The warship is...
I got a tarpit Stego for Christmas and I have been loving getting to learn it. I wasn't super excited for it at first, as it seemed silly to want a disc that didn't want to fly. However it has far exceeded my expectations, and is a truly fun disc to play with. Nearly had an ace this weekend...
Just found a video about halo plastic. It did exactly as was done with the horizon cloudbreaker and cut a halo TL3 in half. It looked similar to the cloudbreaker too. Timestamp for when to look is around 5:20
Good to hear that the orange is just a weird one. Innova goes through so many discs that they are bound to have some issues popup at times. I knew someone on here could help explain it.
Also I checked out Innova's flight formula video for the valkyrie, and the profile they show seems rather...
I just decided to compare my two valks while I was sorting through my plastic, since they felt rather different in hand. The orange champion one was found this summer, but it seems to have the vtech feel in the rim, where you can see it seems to bulge outward slightly. The red one was also...
I have gotten 3 beasts from GGGT in the last 2 years. My first was in DX as a trial and I liked it a lot. It was the L mold. Then I got 2 earlier this year: One backup DX that is the X mold, and one Gstar that is an L mold. I recall seeing a number of X mold 2 years ago when I was there, but...
One of the first three discs I purchased was a DX Hydra and I used that from 2007 until last year. I finally decided that I did not want to risk it anymore and retired it. R-Pro Hydras do not feel as good and lack the cool stamp, so I passed on those. I also decided that trying to find DX Hydras...
I have found that super lightweight discs work extremely well for a person's very first round and as they learn to throw a disc at all. My family and I use Dino Discs (all sub 135g) when we go for fun to our local course, and getting a flight that can go straight helps tremendously. My wife is...
I'm pretty consistently 350ish. Oftentimes farther in a tailwind, and still usually hitting that in a headwind. Not sure about speed since I've never been measured, but I'd guess lower than average since I typically have my discs glide out instead of getting there in a hurry. I have bought...
I lost my first DX roc a few years back. I bought a new one expecting it to behave differently for a bit until I got it seasoned. It turns out I am really bad at having a disc beat up from playing. I could never get it to fly the same magical flight no matter how many times I purposely hit...
When OB is too close to the basket, I feel like making it a hazard is a better option if applicable. You play from where you land, but still take a penalty stroke. That would negate the strategic benefit of having it be OB. I usually only see this on ball golf courses, but it could be used in...
That is true. I did almost learn the hard way that throwing a big stack can make it easier to forgot one. I have found that 4-5 discs is my sweet spot, where I get enough throws in quickly, while not risking blisters or lost discs that throwing the big stacks rapidly can cause.
It might depend on the person and where you do fieldwork, but I have never lost a disc doing fieldwork. I usually use an open baseball field complex that only has backstops and no outfield fences. It is 400'x500' roughly and completely open.
I sometimes have others using the fields too when...
