[Mids] RDG Gila: Overstable Mid

i tried the prophecy,it is a good mold, i just have 2 gilas in the bag and i know them much better so they stayed and the prophecy didnt fill the mid i needed to replace. if i was in the market to revamp my mids,id consider the prophecy but the heavy and llight weight gilas are a good compliment to eachother. 2 gilas and 2 buzzzes atm.
 
Something goofy happened with the PDGA approval. The Gila is most definitely a wide diameter disc.

You should get this fixed. I was about to pull the trigger on a half dozen gilas because I want a speed 5 small diameter mid. I would have been a very unhappy customer.

Even if the pdga specs are wrong at least get your retailers to fix it.
 
Do the Fossil Gilas ever beat up to a point where they become a true turnover disc? I haven't thrown the one I got enough to see any turn but I'm curious if I could replace my Roc cycle with it. My most beat DX Roc will turn all the way to the ground with height and power.
 
I have an early run fossil that has beat in to have solid turn. On a slight hyzer it'll pop up and coast right until it hits the ground.
 
I finally got some stamp time in and got some more Fossil Gilas up on the site! DGCR discount code is still active to take 10% off your order.

I have a beat to snot Gila from when we first ran them and I use them as my turnover shot. I'll get some video of it on various lines this weekend.
 
Fot my first Gila today. I got it from a DGCR trade. I'm not gonna lie, I made the trade for niche market value down the road a bit. But you know I( an avid prophecy thrower) had to fove this bad boy a couple of rips. It says 5/4/0/3 are the flight numbers, but this thing us friggin fast man fsst outta the hand and fast in the air. More beef and a smidge less glide than my prophecy (not much less) its a Roc3 on steroids. Anyway good job RDG.
 
My messed up form makes this thing have a little turn. Doubles partner tonight threw it on a touch of hyzer and it never came out of it.
 
No turn for me. I couldn't see it turning if it wasn't made to turn(flex line). But who knows my baseline prophecies beat in to flip discs so i guess this one could also. Although, I wouldn't count on any turn from the Amber plastic (slightly more firm than Diamond plastic) good disc.

Glad it's flying well for ya. The couple times I threw it was pretty darn beefy and fast. I just prefer a bit slower for mids cause I'll bump up to a Firebird if I need something more OS.

That's a Sanny Sentinel feature. Back in the day we were of course throwing Rocs when the Sentinel came out. The thing looked and felt like a Cobra so no big deal right? Damn they were fast. You would be used to the Roc and BOOM the Sentinel would get out of there. Gila's are A LOT faster than I would have guessed. I picked it up, looked at the diameter and thought "Eh." It's got the pop, though.

I of course managed to tear up my back and arm so last fall I didn't really get to throw it. It's too overstable for for an old uncoordinated right hander throwing left handed standing straight up and down. :| I hope to be singing its praises this summer.
 
just picked up 2 more gilas from rdg, i'm really hoping to start a gila cycle. my other gila is warped to crap after hitting trees 10ft off the teebox. i'm looking forward to beating the snot out of it even more soon:D
 
ooooo hopefully some of the bright stuff theyve been pumping out. i recently saw some black zombie stuff that looked great. i get worried im going to lose my clear amber one day lol i can barely see it even when im watching it.
