Can anyone compare a fresh Opto River to a fresh Gold Ice River?

My Opto River is getting a little flippy, so I was thinking about picking up a fresh one. And I see that there are Gold Ice Rivers available now.

I don't own any La64 Gold plastic, but I believe it's generally less stable than Opto. I'm guessing Gold X is probably more stable than regular Gold (like VIP X is more stable than regular VIP), so probably pretty close to Opto.

I am also concerned that Gold X may beat-in faster than Opto (which I don't want).
 
Me tooa

I was wondering the same thing! Except my opto river is strait and not as flippy as i wanted and am wondering if the gold ice will be more or less flippy than opto.

My Opto was straight when new. It's just starting to get a little floppy after ~5 months. I use it a lot. It's one of my favorite discs.

If you take the chance on a Gold Ice, let me know how it compares to your Opto, please.
