Nuke

The hint of the stamp they show rules out anything related to the nuke in my opinion. Looks like the end of an antenna and something else, weird.

but with the pred they haven't exactly needed it. I would think it'd be cool to have a comparative disc to the pred for understable purposes. I suppose that is what the XL is for...
I thought maybe an awkward music note or something. MAYBE IT'S THE DISCRAFT GROOVE WE HAVE ALWAYS WANTED!!!!!
i'm thinking it's a sparkle z nuke as well because of the immense popularity it has achieved
nuke and buzzz will prob be their biggest money makers in 2011

I like the Hornet. Took the place of my Roc. Good choice for last year's Ace Race Tourney.

Just based on that pic, I wonder if they're re-releasing the Reaper.

Except the XL has some turn, T-bird doesn't & XL won't handle the wind as well as the T-bird. I throw both & the T-bird comes out when I need straight with fade & the XL when it's a little more open. Love'em both

Z XL has very little turn if any when they are new. If the XL wont work for the shot, an Avenger will.

Based on that pic pic the rim is way too big to be a Reaper.

I think the rim is also too small to be a nuke...

Discraft using sparkle plastic is nothing new.. they used it on the first run stalkers at the 2009 worlds amongst several other molds before that.. ie. buzz.. My guess is its probably a sparkle Hurricane.. they are coming out in a week for the Otter open.. I know its DGA but discraft makes em

Its a Nuke with a bead.
This is the only current high speed driver with a wide wing that has a bead.
The bead is pronounced and significant, not just poorly trimmed flashing, and like any other disc, the bead makes these Nukes slower and much more high speed stable than thier beadless couterparts, bring them out of the sky much faster.
This is a good Nuke for headwinds.
The only problem is the bead shreds my index finger as it slides out of my hand, so I can only throw it when I tape up first.
I wanna stablized regular Z Nuke dammit ! A Night Shift Nuke would be a bomber.
And I agree with the other thread about this disc, it looks like mold in the rim, not sparkles.

True, but the Bird doesn't seem to lose HHS like the XL as it beats in, I have a Z & X & they both have some turn. My Champ Teebird won't turn unless it's OAT. And I don't have the arm for an Avenger so I'd love to see a Discraft with no turn, predictable fade, and around speed 7 for us mortals. Guess a Stalker may be close??

Have you even thrown these discs? A Z stalker has more turn then an Z XL.

Never thrown a Stalker, I have the PDGA ESP but never thrown it. Joe's has the XL with -1 turn, the Stalker -0.5, and the Teebird 0. That's what I was using for comparison. But that's kinda my point, Discraft doesn't have a Teebird-ish disc that I know of in the same speed range. But I could be way off since I've tried to stick with certain molds & not throw everything made. If I'm wrong won't be the last time!
