started with a cyclone. it wasn't very beginner friendly. the first disc I felt like I had control over was a 174 wolf and I still have that one (and 3 more wolves).

What Was Your First Disc?

The first disc I threw was a Champ Starfire (my buddy's disc) and the first discs that I owned were the Leopard, Shark and Aviar (Innova DX starter set).

A 172 Champion Sidewinder that I still use (all of a year later).
Stingray. When I started, there was only 1 kind of plastic, what we call DX now. Although, it seems old DX (20 yrs ago) is more durable than the stuff they sell now

It seems as though most of us on this forum started with starter discs for beginners. I see a lot of players today whom start with such high speed discs as their first one. They can't throw it and quickly become frustrated.

a friend gave me a 175 DX T-bird. It was my fav disc. I lost it at deer lick park in Ga. I hate that fraggin park.

I actually got three at one time, JK Pro Aviar, DX Wolf, and DX Shark. My Wolf is still my rescue disc to this day.

After borrowing a friends disc for my first round and figuring out which type of throws I was decent at I bought a Champ Firebird (175) and a Champ Rhyno (172) for putting/mid range. I was an all sidearm thrower at first, so the Firebird did well for me. I now have multiple Firebirds, along with an assortment of other discs. Working on my backhand still, and it's coming along well.

A cobra, I believe.
Back in the day, they were considered long range drivers.

my brother used a comet and i used the shark. i loved that disc so much. it was the only one i used for about a year. it was perfect for everything. but that's when i was younger (15), so i couldn't throw the drivers as far as i can now. what a great disc tho. gotta love the shark.
