[Westside] All things Westside

[MattyIce]

Well, I have one Warship in each plastic, waiting for spring - sounds like 2 different discs: lucky me.

 

[JAKE master]

Another satisfied VIP Sword customer here. Absolutely loving the qualities of this disc!

Awesome. How does it fly? What color and weight? Did you consider other discs, like Dynamic's so-called Sword equivalent?

I was thinking about that today. If the aforementioned DD disc is essentially a Sword, doesn't that create competition within the Lat64 family that would ultimately be detrimental to each others' discs? I guess they're all different companies and contracting manufacturing with Latitude, but it seems weird.

I don't think it would matter too much to latitude, since they are making discs for both westside and dd. They're getting paid regardless to make the disc. I haven't thrown the 2 side by side, but if it's close to the sword I could see the dd variant being more popular in the states just based on dynamic discs' brand recognition.

I'm thinking more along the lines of competition between Westside and Dynamic. I think Latitude is probably as happy as a clam producing and essentially distributing Westside, Lat64, and DD...

I completely agree with this. I'm not assuming that the DD molds are all Westside molds and/or will be in the future. Latitude is OEM'ing these discs for Westside and DD just like local store brand chips and sodas are usually made by Lays and Coke or a smaller food company. They've got their own products too but there's a solid business there making custom products for others which they can brand as their own.

I wonder about some of those newer Millennium discs (Quasar, Astra, & Scorpius) really are unique. I recall seeing the initial press rating one exactly like a Boss and I think another had the same flight numbers as a Katana(?)

It flies like a more responsive Destroyer. It's pliable, and it has more glide, that is unfortunately exaggerated in a head or cross wind but throw that baby up into a tailwind and it's going to BOMB. I only have a few VIPs (weights 167 and 172, no Tourneys yet) and they kicked the Destros out of the "workhorse distance driver" spot for me. I just bought a yellow sparkle VIP, too. Sure is purdy!

I've looked into most of the molds in that range, and the Sword has emerged as my go-to. I have NOT had a chance to sample the DD disc, however.

 

[JAKE master]

the sword i have has been quite impressive. im really happy with the turn i get out of it. not much but just enough that its not shaking out of anhy too fast. really what i was hoping a flow and northman would be.
both started off stable but 60 70 throws in they are turners.

 

[JAKE master]

picked up the VIP sword to add in.
dont know if its normal but its sparkle orange, in a bling'n orange, not the red-orange they put out,
anyway its is very opague. not really transparent at all. really looks like TP. Yet to throw

 

[keltik]

Well the Sword is my official Monster distance driver. Yesterday I threw it around 450 both rounds on the same hole (17 600ft from long tee) at Cedarock doubles. but during the first round I also witnessed Wiggins park that hole. I may be a "big arm" but seeing him throw really puts you in your place. I still love my Swords.

I love my swords. I have two tp's one 171 and one max wt. While I'm not in the 400' club yet, I do like the distance I get from them
really nice glide too! Just picked up a king to mess around with for wide open shots.

 

[jimbosprint]

I am constantly accused of having cheater discs for out-throwing the younger guys. It's always the Sword or King. WESTSIDE!!

 

[apparition]

Guys, take a look at Sniper66's Sword!

Yeah, so I was lazy and typed in 'sword' instead of 'westside sword'. Saw a $15 real sword, clicked the first pic, and wtf?

 

[keltik]

the title says it all! SECRET NINJA TACTICAL SWORD FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now I want to hear reviews from Feldberg.

 

[Kingace]

VIP sparkle sword is so gummy and glides with speed!

I really enjoy them, If he can throw them 600ft why doesn't
He win more? I assume he is a subpar putter?

Going to get a air king how do those fly compared to the
Normal ones?

 

[booter]

[Hoss22]

Where did you get it!!!!!

 

[booter]
