FWIW.....If you asked me to hand you the most stable disc in my bag, I'm handing you my Stego, not my Hex.
Then what do you hand me when I ask for your most overstable disc?
The same. I, like a lot of people, use more stable and more overstable to mean the same thing. Not saying it's correct, but that's the way I hear it the most. To me, something that flies straight is my most neutral, not most stable.
I've taken to not saying stable, and saying more overstable or flippier or things like that to eliminate confusion.
Not saying I'm right. But I'm pretty sure I represent a large section of discers.
I suppose if I asked you to hand me a beer you'd probably toss me an Old Milwaukee. Sicko.
Oh heavens no. Leinenkugels all the way!
Let me ask this. If "most stable" means straight, does "least stable" mean flippy? Why does the scale stop at the middle?
I dig their summer shandy on a hot day. By definition, maybe not a real beer but refreshing non the less.
As far as the discs, maybe the one number system Discraft always used wasn't a bad idea after all. At least you kind of had an idea what a -1 or a 2.0 was going to fly like.
Maybe rather than positive and negative numbers just make a 0 to 10 scale with a zero being something like a Franklin Albatross and a ten being a Titl.

Heck with Discraft's single number. I liked the little arrow that showed the expected flight.
Except it didn't really show the expected flight. It was too short of an arrow to really show S curves. I forget which disc it was, but one of their drivers was like -3/3, but just had a straight arrow on it some 12 years ago or so.

That's what Sharpies are for. Throw a disc, see how it flies, then draw the flight path right on top of the disc. When you step up and decide the shape of the shot you want to throw you just grab whatever disc has the right picture on it.
When I started out and really didn't know much, I did that on the bottom of my discs.

Anyone feel like discussing the rhythm?
I'm really taking a liking to that... I haven't run it against a relay but it's ability to go mostly straight and glide for days is making me feel like it's a longer uplink. I'm not gonna lie, I pooped it a few times but the results were still pleasing and to be expected lines.
