100% of 0 is 0. Your rocs aren't so good!

They are made with different philosophies.
Discraft midranges are designed in the "out of the box" philosophy. Rocs are made with the idea that you have several in different stages of wear.
YOu can not compare any midrange with a roc, because a roc can be anything from a meteor to a wasp.

...especially once you've thrown it and don't know whether it's going to act like meteor or a wasp!!!

We are talking molds in general here, not specific single discs. "Roc" as one mold does not exist.
And yes, I know that there are differend models and different generations and different plastics of roc's etc etc. But the original poster did not specify. He just asked about "Roc vs Wasp" in general. The wasp is one disc, and from the 10 Wasps I have thrown so far, they all flew the same. Rocs are many discs in different forms etc etc.
You know how it is. You throw them yourself. Dont act goofy.

I disagree - part of the charm of a Roc is the stability ... lots and lots of midranges can go straight or flip/turn. A new Roc is ready to use as a stable mid-range from Day 1 and can be paired with alot of different discs with less stability for a nice tandem. Some choose to slide their old Roc down into that spot - many choose something that is predictable out of the box (like the Buzzz). The fact that those two (Buzzz and Roc) pair so well together, with separate strengths, makes you wonder why the great 'debate' even matters.

If you already carry a Buzzz, go with the Wasp. The Wasp is simply a more overstable Buzzz and throws better in a headwind. Plus, both the Wasp and Roc have beaded rims, so it's a toss up when it comes to grip. I haven't thrown a Roc enough to compare, but from what I've seen, a Roc can be thrown with a variety of shots, it just depends how worn in it is

Lets forget idealogical and just go logical
A=B and B=C Therfore A=C
Read Buzz vs. Roc, then Buzz Vs. Wasp to get Roc vs. Wasp
now you're just being difficult

Roc and wasp are nearly identical mold/discs. End of thread! Lol

I find the wasp is a bit more stable than the rocs I've thrown... Also it sucks to find rocs that feel right.

Like Scooter said you throw in the Comet and heck the Zone too and you have the best lineup of mids period. Innova is second but when you throw in conistency its no contest Discraft mids are the tits.

Overall. MVP only has 2 mids so far. Just because I don't currently have a disc bagged doesn't mean I don't think it's a great disc...i.e. Buzzz, Drone, Comet, Zone.
