Think Aerobie. I know they not a technically a disc, but it is very low profile and goes a long way and is very fast. With the flick of the wrist it takes to toss a driver 150 ft, it is easy to toss one of those 300 feet.
Rameka, talking about Aerobies, can you do a physics analysis of why bending one upwards before throwing makes it turn one way....and bending it downwards, the other?
If my comment about the dominess of discs affecting flight on the first page was correct, then the same should apply here I think. I'm not so sure if that's right though; since my first post, a lot of my initial thoughts have had to be retracted and rethought. I'm planning on studying this all in the future, so maybe I'll have a more comprehensive solution for you at some point.
how did you know how complex I thought it was
I didn't mean to offend you. If you understood that the speeds of discs are on a relative scale, however, I don't really know why you'd ask about a speed 50 disc... it takes sophisticated engineering to make those small jumps in speed, and asking a question as you did made me assume that you were very in the dark about the process.
good question,
also why does the uneven rim of the epic add distance to overhand throws?
I've been dying to try out the Epic, but I haven't got a chance yet. I'll have to order it online...until then, I can't really take a stab at that one. Consider it beyond my realm of understanding for now.
