I know one that handles them fine. I think you get different discs than everyone else.JR said:I meant that they are super flippy for a 400' thrower in howling rear winds too.

Same here, right down to the thumb to close to the edge of the disc thing.andrew said:I have the same problem with wide-rimmed discs because of tiny hands (although I'm recently finding some control issues are caused by having thumb too close to edge of disc). I play mostly wooded courses, and find I can throw the longest controlled shots with P-PDs.

I've not thrown either, but inbounds has the XS closer to the eagle-L. Viking is longer with lower values in both high speed turn and low speed fade. Dragon looks a little closer.sunspot said:Something to keep in mind is that Valkyries are being molded in the + configuration. I wouldn't throw a Valk for that reason. However, my suggestion is the PD. An Eagle-X and TBird can be pushed out far if you give them more height.

I have never tried a XS. It's similar to a Viking, right?
I would put the xs as longer then a eagle-l more like a valk. the z xs is alot more stable then the x xs ( it is one of the biggest difference between plastics I have seen).sunspot said:Something to keep in mind is that Valkyries are being molded in the + configuration.

JR said:I haven't thrown Vikings but X XS glides well and flips more than a new Champ Eagle L and the Z XS is a very different disc with much less glide way more HSS and earlier and harder fade. Z XS is close to a new SEX.
Yeah, a few of their discs have different ratings going from Z to X.keltik said:I agree with this. I have an X and Z XS and the difference between the two is night and day.
Cool. The Cyclone is totally different in the 3 plastics. Only the ESP flies for me like what I read about online. The D, rated at 0, is one right flying muther scratcher.keltik said:that is one of the few where the difference is night and day. DC actually gets credit for being the first dg company to realize that different plastics have different flights in the same mold.
It was a wow moment for me when I bought my first one. They beat quick, so I bought a Champion and then a Star TL to avoid cycling Dx. I am not so sure that I won't go back to Dx, as I can get them at Wal-Mart. The Champion is just not as long by a bit, and way more overstable. Seems to overlap with my Tracker that I like more. I think the TL flies closer to the Dx.allsport1313 said:What's all the rage with DX Teebirds? Worth trying if I like Teebirds?
