Which discs do you use for 90's style disc golf?

found a tp cyclone with a stamp from 1995 in the used bin the other day.

yeah those TP Cyclones in used bins used to tear my wallet up. I don't have many left now between breaking them losing them or selling them off. They've even discontinued the ESP Cyclone. C'est la vie.

but back to 90's DG; I was watching the 93 and 99 worlds vids on youtube. Makes me wish I had started back then.

some days i with they would have capped the driver limit at speed 10.

scorpion
hammer
but the go to discs were the viper and cyclone.
eagle came out late 90's and replaced the viper/cyclone.

I think Dave Dunnipace of Innova wanted stop it at 11 IIRC. It may have been 12 but even the experts knew there would eventually be diminishing returns on disc rim width. I've lately been trying to embrace the faster stuff. I don't have consistency with them but that doesn't mean others don't. It's still good to be familiar with all the tools available.

back to 90's style. Here is a video of Paul McBeth and Kyle Sawtelle doing a 90's challenge:

i throw the faster stuff as well. I was just thinking about how differently we attacked course back when a cheetah and cyclone were considered fast discs. I believe the game was more artistic then where now it is a power game. Watching mcbeast throw the nova at worlds and the line he threw took me back.

Its hilarious how surprised they all are that the gazelle is stable.

 

[keltik1]

I started playing in 1992 with just a Shark, and it will always have a place in my bag!

As per this thread I bought a 175 blue classic aviar, 180 red dx stingray, 180 white dx roc, and 180 blue dx viper for $30. No bag required. I'm pumped to crush some folks with these baaad boys!

I carry a Wham-o 86 Softie putter in my bag for certain shots...It was made in the 80's and 90's I believe
