Are these things flat again? I ordered a couple Z Wasps online a few years ago thinking they were flat but they were a bit domey. Still loved the flight and I learned to forehand domey discs thanks to them. Sometimes I regret giving them away.
Going to try out the Wasp after work this evening. Never thrown one. Been throwing the Buzzz quite a bit lately but struggling with it flipping up and turning. Probably more my form than anything I'm sure but hoping the Wasp will hold a nice hyzer line for me until I can work out whatever is causing me to struggle with the Buzzz.
I have a big Z with a little dome and a flat Hammes tour series. Not sure I'll throw both but probably toss the Hammes since I like flatter mids.
yeah i mean the wasp is going to mask that form but really a buzz should barely if at all flip
you ever throw a meteor

My flat Z WASPS don't hold a hyzer line. They flatten and go straight and finish either flat or hyzer depending on the wind. Top 6 disc in my opinion.
The flat tour series Z held the hyzer nicely for me. Could be I didn't have a shot with it over about 260' and playing at 5K+ feet above sea level sort of adds a little stability to most discs anyways.
The Wasp is definitely a nice disc but I actually went ahead and put the Buzzz back in the bag so I can work on whatever is wrong with my form.
I could definitely see myself bagging a Buzzz/Wasp combo.
Buzz never did anything for me, especially a Z Buzz. ESP Buzz was a bit more workable but never stuck. Z Buzz is a poor mans Z WASP. Just a less consistent disc.
As for holding a hyzer line I carry a flat MD5. It knocked out my Pig as a wind putter and overstable upshot disc. Flat MD5 is also a top 6 disc for me. If I had to only choose between between WASP and BUZZ for a hyzer line, that would be an easy choice, the bead on the WASP wins out every time.
The Buzzz/Wasp combo might work with a Z WASP and ESP BUZZ but both being Z is too much overlap except for those dudes with carts that carry 50 discs. A WASP comb of a Meteor or Comet is less overlap.

What?
Um
If you can't throw a hyzer with a Wasp OR a Buzzz, that's on you. Not the discs. I know I can (and clearly so can the Discraft pros that are better than me).

I believe that is what red wasps do. Aces!:clap:

im here and still throwin waspsNecro-bumping the Wasp thread....elmex, are you out there?
I waffled between the Buzzz and Wasp as a newish player and finally settled on the Buzzz, had to go back to 2019 to find my posts on this thread. Moved on to the Hex a couple years ago and it's gonna stay in the bag. I throw a Quake for OS mid duties and have struggled finding something I like between the Hex/Quake. The first eclipse Reactors worked but newer runs aren't as stable so.....
I saved 2 ESP swirl glo Wasps from several years ago. Threw one in the yard a bit and bagged it for a round yesterday with extra throws on some holes. I'm FH dominant and it performed quite admirably, maybe not as stable as I'd like for FH but I probably need some time to dial it in. Kinda have a no bead preference but it feels fine both BH or FH, plenty stable for my BH.
TL;DR - trying a Wasp again after about 5 years.
Anybody thrown the swirly Z 2022 ledgestone run? OTB has a bunch of sale and one of the reviews says it's on the OS side.
