disc diameter large vs. small

[Frank Delicious]

I saw it existed, I didn't read it. It looked huge. Was there something a non-Comet thrower should know about it? Anyway, a question was posed and I responded.

Summary of that thread for a non-comet thrower:

why aren't you throwing a comet?

 

[Working Stiff]

Speaking of big discs...

Had to read that twice...

:lol:

I figured people would enjoy the double entendre!

So does anyone know if a Condor is like a B-17?

No, a B-17 is more like a Jaguar. It's faster and flippier than a Condor.

Thanks for the summary. Did anyone else mention the dominess problem? Was there a brilliant resolution suggested? I may get away without reading any of it.

Yesterday I tested the new run of Sparkle Z Squalls which are flatter than I recall the prior runs of Squalls. My friend Jeremy Swan loves Squalls (which look somewhat Comet-like but fly more like a broken in Buzzz) and was throwing the new ones very well. Even the more limited dome of the new Squalls felt unnatural to me.

The consensus is domey comets are the best and flatter comets are flippier and less glidey. I need to try the Z squalls, I've been throwing Z aftershocks as my stable/overstable slot lately and they are awesome.

Nah, I was just pointing it out in order to make the point that there is much Comet love on these boards. And that's a good thing.

Domey Comets are the only Comets. Flat Comets are bitchy pains in the ass. If I wanted to spend the afternoon with a bitchy pain in the ass I'd stay home with my wife.

Basically if you don't like domey discs, you don't like Comets. That's a couple notches below brilliant, but a resolution nonetheless.

Simplicity and brilliance are blood brothers.

Mark- you should get the lizard lawyer as your status, you've earned a unique one


so... what do you use for your under stable mid?
i like the meteor cause the grip was similar to the buzzz, never thought of it as domey per say... but i guess it is when i really look at it

also, how often do you guys try to film more "clinics"
the world of lurkers are fiend'n for more

you guys should get some slow mo, and really highlight the fundamentals and differences/similarities between the pros...
i like the vids, but a balla like yourself needs some HD and an incentive to get all sponsered pros to participate, but i really dig the layed back approach, and appreciate the work being done

lil late, but i figured i'd say thanks for helping the sport
long overdue

sorry for thread jackin

I use a beat up X Buzzz for an understable mid and love it.

Slow motion cameras are expensive tools which I have not had access to so far. Thanks for the kind words. I hope my best shots and best videos are in my future. My influence is small as to when clinics are conducted or published. My sponsor makes those calls.

hehe, i wouldn't mind that over the turkeylink... i mean if your offering

the big fundamental sounds sweet
but unique rank is funnier
:mrgreen:

i had a beat up x buzzz i got from PIAS, but it never got flippy enough for me, plus it was a purple tie dye... i traded it before i lost it
definitely was understable though

my esp buzzz sunk in the river on its second throw, never got a chance to wear it in at all


o well, happy with the meteor, intrigued about the comet, but i'm pretty comfy with mids for now

 

[HeartlessCynic]

Beating an ESP Buzzz to be that flippy would take forever (or a ton of intentional abuse). The X's take a while as it is.

How about a Skeeter? It holds any anhyzer line I put it on, just requires more control. Skeeter=Money shot.

Nope, skeet = money shot, skeeter = money shooter.
