Nybo = regular star in my experience
Only thrown two tho
My FD is not flying straight laser lines anymore and my shop is out of new ones so I'm thinking about getting a Teebird instead. I got a champion Teeb, but it's a bit of a hog. It's actually an overstable glideless pig. I'm on the lookout for more of a workhorse type of disc. How do the Echo Star ones fly, and how quickly do they break in? What about a normal Star? FWIW I dont got a big arm, I get my champ out to maybe 280 on a big throw, max d is about 350 with a Tern
Luckily my shop restocked FDs, unfortunately I threw my glideless overstable Teebird away in the woods the other day. I figured I'd try a g* Teebird as a more workable replacement for my JL one. I got one in 168g and it flies like it's a totally different mold than the Jolly Launcher. It has great glide, it even has a little bit of turn when I rip it really hard. The old one didn't care about a stiff headwind, I dont think this new g* would be able to handle headwinds the same way. Some of those jolly launchers are just way more overstable
Oh yeah the GStar and Echostar Teebirds are no where close to as overstable as the JL's. In my experience for regular stock stamped Teebirds, JL's are the most overstable, then Star, then GStar and Echostar, then DX. If you handed someone an unstamped DX and an unstamped JL and they threw them both, I think most people would assume they were different molds.

Not trying to be too nit picky, but I own about a dozen echo stars, and they are more on par with regular star, and nowhere near gstar. They have been my main driver for about 3 years. About 2 years ago, when they changed the stamp to have the totem pole, the echos started coming out flatter and more overstable. My one caveat is that I haven't purchased a new one in about a year, so I don't know if things have changed.
Almost all the Teebirds in the aviary.
The AJ tour series TBs are fairly OS. But you can definitely find stock star TBs that are really OS
