I mainly use hyzer-flips to get a straight line out of an understable disc. If you hyzer-flip an understable disc properly you can get it to go dead straight with little-to-no fade. You could throw a stable disc flat and it will go straight for most of its flight, but it will fade a lot more at the end than a hyzer-flipped understable disc.

Also, I can hit forehand lines with a backhand if I hyzer-flip a super-understable disc like a Stratus, Glide or Vision to where it turns over late in its flight and continues turning with no fade.

you are asking why you would want to turn over a disc or why to throw with out an X step?

I will tell you the same thing that 100 others will. Watch the Dan Beato videos and work on your pull and release. These videos will fix the nose angle issues and help with your distance.

If the video shows how you really play and is not a joke, you have potential and you have to fix your form even if it is just so your buddies can see what it is supposed to look like. You seem to be the best out of the group, so if you say a technique is working, they will probably try to copy you. You will all get better together.

Also have you told your T-rex friend that likes to do the limbo everytime he throws to stay behind the other throwers?

I do it quite often. You just really have to rip it.

I have a glo-cryztal flx coming in the mail, I'll try it out.

but I haven't thrown a coveted 1st run Buzzz which I think would be nice and flat.
Aren't all buzzzes flat? I've only owned 1 buzzz ever, but it's as flat as a board. Also, I used to hyzer flip it until I cleaned up my form a little, now I can't turn it over at all.
