[Westside] Westside Warship

[ff33]

warships are at the lat64 factory store you just have to pay 33$(to the US for shipping) for them which is the cheap end of ebay prices, so i bought one

 

[Moose33]

There will probably be a glut available after the trilogy challenges are over. I'll wait and stock up then.

Hah good point Moose - actually registered for on the other day for $35, so I feel like i got a bargain given ff33's post.

Got myself a TP Warship based on the recommendations I got when looking for a more stable Fuse.

I can see how that makes sense and it is certainly more overstable than the Fuse. The rim even looks a bit similar, but the hand feel is just completely different. I don't even know anything I'd compare this to.

Anyway, went to the field and the Warship performed as advertised. It didn't have much of turn if any on 300-320' shots with even some fade at the end. The line itself is pretty neat, but I'll have to see if I can live with how it feels in the hand.

Also, the distance hype seems real as I got a mid past 100m (333') for the first time. It's gonna be funky figuring out how this slots into the bag, where a straight to fade mid would range well past 300, but when I want to flip something up I cap at 300'.

So the Warship did make the bag and has been performing really nicely. Unfortunately over the couple of weeks of throwing, it has developed quite a bit of turn and I was wondering what would be the more OS variant of the Warship?

I saw some Tournament-X ones out there, but are they reliably more OS?

I've got a VIP-X Warship and, like every X-plastic disc (tournament-x or vip-x) that I've thrown, it's been noticeably more OS than a non-X and takes much longer to wear in.

I noticed Warships are now available in Elasto and Vip Ice Orbit plastics. I have not tried either of these plastics.

Does anyone have experience with the warship in either of these plastics?

 

[Serious-OLD]

Fluid Truth is the closest Ive thrown to an Elasto Warship.

Elasto is a flexible premium plastic. Very durable. Great for mids IMO.

Old fluid / elasto / frost tended to be a bit more stable than VIP / Opto.

New stuff seems to be more like K1 Soft. Stability does not seem reliably more stable. Most of my new run stuff seems to be slightly less stable than normal runs if anything (Only tried Verdicts and Rivers in new plastic.)

I dont think I've tried VIP Ice Orbit, but neither Orbit nor VIP Ice have been significantly more stable in my limited experience.

TL;DR

If you like Warships I would at least try out the Elasto one.

I don't know, I used to throw a Fluid Truth when they first came out and it was stable for like a week. Since then it was the most understable Truth I had.

I went and got myself a Tournament-X Warship and that is clearly more OS than the normal Tournament one. I still wouldn't call it an overstable mid, but it is definitely stable and doesn't turn one bit at 330' drives.
