I think he was trying to point out the misspelling of the person he quoted.

I know of the next two discs being made for hopefully a duel release, but didnt want to put out a date or anything because you never know whats going to happen.
No, I think Legacy is at the worst, attempting, to be cutting edge, and I think with developing the Rampage and Cannon, they are.

But, reading about another Buzzz/Roc disc gutted that instant reaction.

I hope to try one out soon.

So I finally got a chance to throw one of these guys. Does a Roc by any other name fly less sweet?

It is a roc. There is no visual or effective difference between the ghost and the roc. Well, I mean the mid 2000's rancho roc. And that may be all the selling power it needs.

For those of us who have known rocs going back two decades, we know that the current run of rocs is crap. That is why people pay so much money for older ones. No matter what Innova tells us, they HAVE jacked with the rim, and we don't like it.

The ghost is an exact replica of the old 90 degree rim of mid 2000's rancho rocs. And it is in nifty premium plastic. And it seems to be consistent from disc to disc. And it is in regular production and is relatively cheap. $16 for a brand spanking new premium plastic Roc seems a hell of a lot better than digging through marketplace posts for old rocs of varying price and quality.

Reports of faster speeds seem to be cooked up imho. It is in premium plastic, expect it to fly at a premium plastic Roc speed. It has the nice old rim, expect your release to be better than the new crappy roc rims. Once you throw a baseline ghost I'm sure it will fly exactly like those old dx rocs you love.

The more and more I read about the Ghost, the more I want to get one I wonder how my Rocs would feel about it.

They'd be relieved that you won't be throwing them into trees anymore :P
