[Discraft] What is a Valkyrie in Discraft terms?

[Nick C]

Sorry if this has been posted but I know a few discs between innova and discraft that are similar but I'm not sure what the equivalent to the Valkyrie is for Discraft (if it even has one). Can anyone hit me with some knowledge?

 

[billnchristy]

A hot Swede with wings.....

Ohhhh discraft terms...Avenger SS?

 

[mmyersdisc]

I dont' honestly know...I have a champ valk that is more stable then my star valk, so if I would guess I would have to say either an Avenger (avenger SS would be a beat in valk) or a Surge SS...

 

[biscoe]

i'd say xs

 

[dgdave]

Wildcat

 

[wtafro]

I would probably go with an Avenger.

According to the GGGT chart the Wildcat requires a little more power but is exactly the same.

That must depend mightily on arm speed and power because my Z Wildcat is much more stable than my Star Valk.

The closest thing to the Valk in my bag is either the Avenger SS or the older Slipstream GT.

Marshall Street's chart agrees with my assessment of the Slipstream: http://marshallstreetdiscgolf.com/disc_golf_flightguide.html

Surge SS...

Definitely not.

 

[Rbuzz9]

No way its a Surge SS - Surge SS's go very straight for the most part not a ton of HS turn. Valks are know for their S shot ability.

 

[Midnightbiker]

Avenger SS is the closest.

 

[dgdave]

I find A-SS to not have as much LSS as a Valk

 

[Adam Schneider]

I just ordered an Avenger SS, because in theory it'll be a touch less stable than my Valkyrie and more stable than my Sidewinder. (There's a pretty big gap in between the Valk and the SW, at least the ones I have.)

But Discraft's closest thing to a Valk? I'd say XS, maybe XL.

 

[A.Mutt]

I would say XS as well, though its slower.

 

[tbird888]

Avenger SS is the closest.

An Avenger SS is way too fast. I've never thrown any Discraft that remotely compares to a Valk (never thrown an XS).

 

[Three Putt]

The X Wildcat is closest IMO.

 

[CwAlbino]

i'd say xs

I will agree with this.

 

[discgolferlee]

I will agree with this.

yep that's my thoughts

 

[mickas]

avenger ss or surge ss?

Yeah that's about right. I was actually going to compare the Avenger SS more to the Sidewinder than the Valkyrie.
