Anyone actually throw this thing? I don't see any threads about it.
Anyway, I found a Z Crank SS in a lake last week (172g). Good looking disc. Nice dome. I guess I can't really say I had high expectations throwing it, but this disc is just a mess.
It is SOOOO damn understable it won't stay flat. I threw some drives with a STEEP hyzer release only to see them become "throllers" (unintentional roller on a flat or hyzer release). I had a couple semi decent hyzer flips with the Crank SS when I backed off the power a bit. Top distance was about 400'.
I wanted to like this disc, but I don't. I was expecting something flippy, but I was hoping the Crank SS would have a little fade late in flight. I had a Lucid Captain and a G* Tern for comparison, and neither one of those were as flippy as this Crank SS.
I don't know who this disc is marketed for. It seems like the Crank SS violently flips as soon as it hits cruising speed. This disc reminded me a lot of a Queen or UnLace. Lots of speed, but absolutely zero beef.
Crank SS: 12, 5, -5, 1. LOTS of easy high speed turn to be had. Problem is, there isn't much, if any, late fade. This was one of the easiest-to-flip drivers I've ever thrown. Even the Nuke SS isn't this flippy.
