I just played in Trilogy Challenge yesterday. Just some info on disc flight for those whose can't throw 500 like the guy in the review video. A little about myself for reference. I can throw my Tern 370 reliably and will usually hit 400 once or twice a round. I throw a Thief about 330-350, Roc3 260-280, Judge around 220-230. I hope this can be helpful for people that would like to practice with something similar before they play with these three new discs.
Latitude 64 Retro Macana - looks and feels like a hybrid of a Judge and a Dagger. Beaded with the rounded nose of Dagger but shallower, although not as shallow as the Judge. I putt with a Judge, so not too much difference there and on full throws flies very much the same as well. Did not get a chance to throw them back to back to actually compare, but I tried to throw it like I would my Judge and had pretty good success.
Dynamic Discs Fuzion Evidence - As I mentioned earlier, I throw a roc3 for my mid and these flew pretty close to one another although I think a little less stable than a Roc3, but not really enough to make much difference. Not quite as understable as the Claymore, which is what I was expecting based on the video review. Had a microbead similar to the Claymore and the nose looked virtually the same, but it had noticeably less turn .
Westside Discs Elasto Sampo - Flew and looked very similar to a champion Thunderbird. Was maybe a little faster and maybe slightly less stable. I only threw this a few times, but on a hole I normally throw my Thunderbird, the Sampo went just a little farther (about 10 feet) and not quite as much low speed fade. It also reminded me of a slightly faster, more stable Escape. It had less high speed turn than lucid Escape, but about the same fade. I also throw a Trespass and this seemed less stable and just a bit slower than that.
