through along my eco boss, pro boss, champ tana, nuke was out distancing.. but my nuke is a 168 the rest are 175... but it was getting 25-20 ft more.. got into a little wind and it didnt flex out as well..i think it may be enough to boot out the katana, but i need the boss for more straight lines.. predictable fade(eco)

I was digging on the nuke until yesterday. I hit a brick at about 400 ft. yesterday and it absolutely obliterated my FR Nuke. Now I have to decide if I want to get another one or not.

Most...if not all of my Champ or Z disc's can take a brick shot at 400 ft. and show no worse for wear.

One time I threw a max weight champ roadrunner at an actual brick wall with staggered bricks on its face--a truly torturous medium of disc destruction--for an hour! It didnt do JACK to the disc! Im looking at the RR right now and it does have some burrs and scratches, but no scratch or scrape is more than a surface scuff and the shape is utterly the same as a brand new RR. It still has a ton of stabiltiy left too....it basically flies like a new one tuned a little bit. I am very confident I could do the same thing to a z XL, probably an opto striker, definitely a Timberwofl etc. Really any disc that has the super tough champ/z type plastic (I know they are actually different--nylon vs something). But yeah...star and ESP just arent like that...which I like for a disc I want to beat in...like maybe...a nuke?!

While this sounds good in theory, I'm not so sure. I haven't liked the flight or feel of Z plastic in any disc with a wider rim than a Pred...Since FLX came out there Z plastic has been shitty in some runs of all their discs (soft/scuffable/warpable). I like Z Buzzzes because they are durable/remain stable,and I'm not concerned with getting max D with them, but ESP discs seem to fly farther in about every mold Discraft makes. It seems like the faster the disc, the more this is true. ESP Flashes/Surges/Forces WAY outdistance their Z brethren in my experience.

I want a dozen Nukes made in the old Elite Z plastic which is durable and stable.

:lol: yeah... Nuke plastic
in practice i was playing this parking lot as OB water trying to bust strong-headwind drives across. like 3 discs outta my bag made it, the rest dove into the asphalt. i could spot damage on a couple discs, but the Nuke had lost a *chunk*. not just shredded a tiny bit like the other Star and ESP, but raggedy chunk removed, maybe the size of a thumbnail.

I've had no problems controlling my Nukes in headwinds to 25mph so far. I just give them a little hyzer. We're still talking about a super fast disc that is somewhat stable. I do look forward to trying a Nuke X if they release them as a compliment for an even better choice into the wind.
You guys are all saying these are flipping in headwinds for you. The one I threw yesterday was (green with the production stamp) was really fast and overstable and I couldn't even flip it all the way flat into the wind. Which ones are the flippier ones, those are the ones I want to try? I don't usually like the esp plastic but this stuff feels really nice,kina like innova pro plastic which is my favorite.
