Good to know that it's not just in my head then haha. I was hoping for a more stable complement to my 180g Star Roc3, but they actually seem to fly in a pretty similar way. Still a cool disc, just not what I was expecting. Maybe I'll check a Proline out.

From what I've heard the stock Proline have a touch more dome and are not as overstable as the First Flights.
Dome on a Quake? Eeeuwww!

Granite Quakes are money.

Try a D-Line as well, I think they're even better.

I just bought a nice new pearly white max weight proline quake. Flat and comfy, pretty stable.

How does it compare to a First Flight?

Unfortunately I've never tried a first flight. The only close thing to compare it to is a 170g esp-flx drone. A tick more stable, and I get cleaner releases FH. Wish I tried this mold sooner! Also hope they run more SP's in the future. Seems covid has put the Discraft factory into overdrive, they probably are sidelining DGA stuff.
Well, I got one and bagged it for a round today. Very different disc than the SP or pro but it's pretty sweet. Not nearly as OS with a touch of dome and actually has good glide. Threw it both BH and FH, made a couple of nice touch FH approaches once I learned not to throw it like I do my SP. It's probably what a nice OS Roc should fly like.
Think I'm gonna bag it instead of my Buzzz for a bit.

This is the bottom of my D line Quake. I had a few witnesses to my first aceHigh BH hyzer over some Okie cedars, 180ish and blind. Last I saw, it was coming in hot at about a 45° angle.
Really liking this disc but yeah, it's getting beat up pretty quick.
Noice! Mine lost all stability after like 3 tree hits. Im very happy with my proline FF. The D-line Quake flight now overlaps with my Buzzz. Had to drop it.
Better consistency with Quake/Buzzz in premium plastics imo.
I've been bagging it instead of a Buzzz for most of the last couple months. Don't throw it a bunch so it's still got some lss but has definitely lost some hss. I really do like how it glides though, seems less power hungry than the Buzzz to me.

Sunking has a pre-order for the SP Quake.
These may go fast

Bit of sadness today. Sunking just got the SP Quakes in stock. I emailed to see what the profile of the discs were. The response was ...
"they all have a touch of dome to them"
While some may enjoy dome for this type of disc and it should give them even more glide...i would have preferred them Flat.
