what's the official ranking on the PD2 on the stability of flight between runs?
what is the most overstable run ever?

Well actually we just stumbled across the Prototype S-LINE PD2. It's by far the most overstable PD2 we have ever tested, but unfortunately it's too stiff for PDGA play.
In general the C-LINE is more overstable so i'll just add S-LINE where it belongs.

2nd run DD's...how do they fly compared to the other runs?

2nd run DDs have considerably more glide, especially the ones with the higher dome. They're one of our furthest flying discs behind maybe only the G-LINE DD2.

|
We don't have any of the 2nd run FD's left. We have dug through everything multiple times to make sure we get all of them out to you guys. We have found that 165-169 FD2s fly a lot like the 2nd run FDs. Heavier FD2s are more beefy and great for touch sidearm shots.

C-LINE FD's and Champion TeeBirds share a lot of the same features. For example they are both speed 7 fairway drivers and both have a clear plastic. But the differences start to come in the flight. Now remember this is my opinion of comparing two brand new discs. The FD will be more willing to hold a line and not fade as early as the TeeBird with less effort.

We'll have a few new things coming this winter - including the G-LINE PD2 today!

I think you guys got this one..

basically a shorter PD.
even at light weights these things are stable as hell.

some of the lightest ones are the most overstable actually.

I would agree with this.

This Disc Golf World tour news is fantastic! Jussi is the man. He has the vision for our sport

We greatly appreciate the kind words!

|
We agree with this. it was meant to compliment the PD, CD and even the TD.

Must be the CD2 you have, I threw c and s-line pd vs c-cd2. I agree they aren't as dumpy at the end of the flight as a pd but they are possibly more HSs. I have several and they all flew more Hss than any of pd's I've tried. I like the pd but love the CD2 and with the release of the fd3 it kicked all pd's out of my bag. But I do like your comparison, I think the thunderbird is the glow sexton fb to the Pd's firebird. Where I think the cd2 is like a more HSS Valkyrie.
|
The First Run C-LINE CD2s came out a little more overstable than the prototypes, so they were a little more HSS than they were supposed to be. The 2nd run we got to feel and fly exactly like the prototypes. We had guys testing these that were throwing them further than their favorite 11-13 speed drivers. We highly recommend this disc for those looking for a long straight flyer.

The CD2 is one of the best discs out there imo. Kinda like a thunderbird yeah, it is sneaky long, most people that throw them love them!
|
I agree with this. especially players loving them!

Hybrids and Swirly S lines fly a little bit more stable than the normal S lines.
Nuts straight.

We agree!

Also, really liking the new run of P-MD3's. These one's seem to break in a little faster than the proto's did. Now I can start rotating them and covering all my mid duties with various MD3's(C and P). Really looking forward to S-MD3's when they become widely available :D
|
We've never really made pumpkin discs, we've made halloween discs :) and thanks for the feedback on the new P-MD3s!

True. Def going to try out the SMD3s, especially if they are beefy. I might have to check out the GMD3s too for the same reason.

Try both for sure, we did a couple of cold morning rounds where they both performed great!

We'll keep that in mind for future productions!

If we made them we would be looking for more beef.. maybe we'll slide this into our testing.

MD3 nut here...what is MF? Also, any colors of the new MD3s that break in faster than others (I'd buy d-line if they sold it...used to love my flat dx rocs, and MD3s replaced my rocs for their great stable flight but better grip/feel).
|
We haven't found one color to break in faster than another yet. We'll keep an eye on the rate at which these discs season.

Thanks for the idea, we'll most certainly keep this in mind for future productions.

How to tell apart the old understable run of Blizzard PD2s and the newer run?
|
You should really try the newest run (2nd run) of the CD2 they are a softer feeling plastic that glides great.
The old Blizzard PD2s have a large pop top to them and they had a rim that felt slick and was glossy looking.

I can tell you we have tested them. We'll get back to you on more later :)

We agree with that! and the G-LINE FD might work good too.
