Good Lord, that's a lot of hype. It kinda reminds me of when the Inferno came out. You remember the Inferno, right? Super fast, great for low power players to throw far, gonna revolutionize the game...This disc is going to be FAST FAST FAST. And GREAT for the player who throws 250-350ft. I tossed it this weekend in STL and I loved it. Its still no where near ready for production. Dave is finishing up a few more things to this disc. he is talking about putting a savage top on it instead of whats on there now which will make it a little more stable but not much. Expect this thing to be released by the end of the summer if everything goes correctly. Maybe sooner if he can get the mold done correctly. Everyone needs to be on the look out for this disc cause its going to change the game.
Yeah, I run a lot of unsanctioned events. I still don't allow illegal discs. It's too much hassle. If I let somebody throw a Ninja, what's to stop a guy from throwing an Aerobie ring and making a complete mockery of my event? So I stick with PDGA approved discs. I'm sure most other organizers who run unsanctioned events will as well. I have to draw the line someplace, might as well let the PDGA do it for me.Well its going to change the game just not in pdga sanctioned tourneys as it will not meet the pdga specs as the rim thickness is going to be 2.668 and legal is 2.599
But this thing is still going to be one of those discs that people are still going to want to throw. There are actually quite a few tourneys that arent sanctioned anymore.

That's cool. I can barely get a power grip on a Boss, so I doubt I could even hold a Ninja for a backhand. It gives me a really good reason to skip it.its 2.8cm bud, he made it even wider
well to be fair he finally got the new mold of the warrior submitted and approved

Which is a theory he has batted around quite a bit since the Tech Standards were revised. Steve Pearson has a couple of Illegal drivers on the market, and Dave probably knows how well those are selling. It was clear from his posts that Dave was not in favor of a rim cap, and this is the kind of driver he wants to make. He wants to make it and he thinks there is a market for it, so from that respect it seems like a win/win.I agree, his comment was that he would make more money on the disc releasing it as an illegal disc
Cliff notes.So.....how about the disc's flight characteristics from rumors or those who have actually thrown a prototype?
Not yet released.
Dave M will tell you "it is like ________(insert popular disc name) but longer, straighter, and easier to throw."
You'll have to wait until they come out to see how they really fly.

There were some prototypes at the St. Louis Open and LSDiscs has had some prototypes at other events. The flight plates are not coming out correctly yet, so it's hard to tell much from them. It's gonna be fast, that's about all you can say for 100% sure.it will be overstable for the weaker arms, and act similar to a boss, for stronger arms I would say it will act more like a Nuke/Katana mix. Pretty much think faster Wraith with a little less stability.
