They are out there. I had a yellow one I got in a mystery box last year I believe.

Is there a Discmania disc that could (easily) hyzer flip for a non Crush Boy? Exploring discs that I could use for tight gaps, woods, etc, etc. Thx.

Not at all

thatdirtykid 01-02-2020 09:15 PM

Ddx is easier to flip up by far.

Y'all are crazy recommending speed 10-13 for flip up woods discs for non-crush boy

You're looking at a 165 S-Line FD, or CD2 in your plastic choice for a little more OS

Or a D-Line FD if you need flip to turn, or roller off the tee

Glow PD2

Just jokes. But seriously, an FD or CD2 might do the trick. What do you normally throw for distance and how far can you throw that?

Thx for all the comments btw. But in regards to the above, I don't have good arm speed but I have decent snap for an old dude. lol.. The end result is my distance separation from putters to drivers is not that great, typically only around 50ft, but I can throw putters 275-300, mids 300, fairways 325, drivers 330-350. My main 4 discs would be Wizard, Mako3, Leopard, Tern.

While I hyzer flip some of my discs now, I want to explore discs that can flip up much sooner, allowing me to create lines from various release angles mainly for tighter lines, woods, etc. Thx.

B The V 01-05-2020 10:09 AM

P Line md3's flip easily after they are beat in. Same with d line fd's. I have an older s line fd and glow cd2 that I can hyzer flip to straight or get them to flip up and over to the right.

I used to have that problem with distance separation at the same distances that you're mentioning. I was getting my drivers a little nose up which caused the problem. It was a grip problem. My old grip worked great with mids and putters. Look into some of the threads on here for throwing nose down.
I have a 165g s-line fd that i really learned to hyzer flip and keep the nose down and can push out to 400 now. You could probably do that with your leopard.

DiscFifty 01-05-2020 04:33 PM

^^^ Thx, I may have to re-address the nose issue. I do get a fluke throw pushing 4 bills once in a while, but it's hard to re-produce on demand, so that very well could be a nose down issue. hmm.....

There are some pretty good suggestions by others.

Any kind of FD, really. D-Line will be the most useful for this stuff right out of the box
CD2 is fantastic. S-Line is maybe the best for this sooner as opposed to C-Line that's on the newer side

ManU 01-06-2020 01:50 PM

EDIT: this is to follow on to DiscFifty's inquiry and the responses thereto

Not quite 50 but close enough

at altitude

D line FD hyzer flips with some nice turn (and a little fade if high enough). I've been really impressed with the D line (and I carry G and Night Strikes 1 and 2)

G line FD for slightly more stable than the D with similar lines, lots of glide. Also impressed with the G line fills the gap nicely between the D and Night Strikes)

G line CD2. I assume they are all flat (the 3 that I have are flat). Hyzer flip with some turn and a bit of fade. Longer, slightly more (low speed) stable version of an FD in my mind. After G line I'd suggest a flat and possibly lighter S line.

Anyone throw the color glow DD3s yet?

There are color glow DD3’s?

I guess I wasn’t paying much attention. I thought the mystery box DD3’s were just regular C-line.

The color glow C-line is one of my favorite plastics.

The weather has only given me a few chances to throw it, but so far they are very straight for me. With a little anhy I could get it to turn almost the entire flight and when thrown flat it just wants to keep going straight. They seem to be the most workable and have a little more glide compared to the CBs and stock stamp S-line DD3s I've thrown so far.

Thanks Discmania dude for the nice OS swirly S-FDs. I was even able to grab a couple 168g. I won't even complain about the swirly colors since I like them so much. 👍

The recent pearly Champion/C-line plastic is sweet. Please run some C-FDs and PDs, with a few in the upper 160's.

That is the plastic that I am hoping to see the FD2 released in. Pearly C-line

We have them here in Finland, just bought one today! 167g with the same overstable profile as the swirly S-FD. It wasn't pearly like most of the recent champ/c, but it sure was super grippy! It might be because of the lower weight, but it felt clearly softer and gummier than any other champ/c I've felt during the last five years.

mrcheviot 01-09-2020 01:46 AM

Felt up a TD in what I assume is the newer run of C plastic today (embossed plastic & model underneath). It's like luster and g-line had a baby, slightly pearly/cloudy with great grip but way more flexible than any c-line I've ever seen. Another way I'd describe it as stiffer, grippier ZFLX. Hope the durability is on point. They had two TDs in this blend, the rest of the c-lines in the rack were the normal uber-stiff variety.

Looking forward to throwing this blend. I know its due out in the FD2v3 (any release date on that?), and I'm hoping it's avail for PD's and CD2's as well.

(btw, it was in a store in Rochester NY fwiw).

Aye. Seems kind of random.. one mold, and in a rather limited DM rack no less.

DiscyBusiness 01-19-2020 10:16 PM

WELL WELL WELL. Based off what I'm seeing from ol Bart Kowalewski on fb, C-line FD2s will be out Jan 30th. It's finally happening.

Yep, and it looks like a few factory 2nd's went out in the last mystery box (not many, but a small handful).

DiscyBusiness 01-22-2020 01:55 PM

So I guess my new question is: will there be a stock release of Lux Links, and if so, when?

I saw one big online retailer hinting that a stock run is coming soon :D

The Discmania Story video was cool. Of course the tease of a Fanatic 2 and and an Active line basket has me very interested.

i heard from a little bird we get a discmania xxx next month

you think a PD3 in Originals line or something Evolution Line


at least they left themselves room with the Tactic being not super OS to do the P4 even more OS in Originals in like 2 years

My guess is evolution line. I doubt we see much added to the "originals" over time.

mrcheviot 01-30-2020 08:45 AM

Much like the Royal Rage, this run of FD2 is quite flat. Additionally, these came out a little stiffer than the Royal Rage which was in the Color Glow C-Line plastic.
Really was hoping this would be in the softer C-line which (IMO) is better suited for woods play. Curious if there are any plans for a (swirly) S-line run of these in 2020?

ArtemisClydFr0g 01-30-2020 12:19 PM

Just ordered a couple FD2s. I would've grabbed a first run stamp if they weren't so boring. It'd be cool if Discmania came up with the protostar equivalent stamp for first runs.

assuming itll be lat produced

joegraham 01-30-2020 10:35 PM

Just saw that the P2 is now made in soft P line. Is it flexy and actually soft? Very interested in trying this for putting.

ray1970 01-30-2020 11:47 PM

I’ve been putting with the soft P-line for a little while now. Grip wise it feels similar to the X-line. It’s a little more flexible than the D-line or normal P-line but it isn’t overly soft or flexy if that makes sense.

I’m sure it’s comparable to some sort of Innova plastic but I don’t know which one. Yeti Pro maybe?

Seconded. Can we have a vote? All in favor of an S-Line TB replacement say "Aye"

AYE

I would compair the plastic to the one in JK Aviar-X. I always liked the JK Aviar-X for putting and always have felt like the regular D-P2 are ... not as nice but with the soft-P2 they more or less feel as the same disc for me and my putting game :)
