I love p line md3's. Such great discs. Would love to see P line make a come back.
@Discmania_Support, are there any plans for P-Line style flippy plastic?
It's odd that they've consistently avoided the p-line question in this thread. I find the "pick and choose" method a bit odd. In addition to saying a production update was coming when it wasn't, only a shipping update. If you can't predict, that's totally fine. No fault in that. You can't write a check you can't cash.
Been rippin it up on my new Enduro MTB
For sure the new MD3s are a bit on the overstable side. Good spin and arm speed may alleviate for some of that. I have red C-MD3s and a pink IS3. The latter is even more overstable. My old go-tos are pink CE MD3 and a FR Glow MD4, and I dont feel like these MD3s add any value to my shots necessarily. Might also be from just knowing the old guns better, I dunno. Also still trying out the MD1 but even that is more stable than I would like, so I think I'm just gonna stick to the oldies goldies.
ps.
Good on you! I also just upgraded to a Devinci Kobain and have been hitting drops and jumps harder than ever before. :hfive: Easily my #1 pastime nowadays. DG 4ever, though.
Hmm, so all the new MD3's are more O/S than the old ones? That sucks, haha. I guess I'll have to try and find an MD1 or maybe go with a Lat64 Trust or Compass? I've read and seen some videos of the Trust and it looks/seems more like what I'm looking for. Stable in all throws, but mostly dead straight with a baby fade at the very end. And good glide and distance.
Gotta find something that is long, straight, but always has a baby fade at the end and is what you'd call stable. My Glimmer Lucid X Emac Truth has way too much fade at the end (although it does go dead straight most of the flight, just has a fairly big fade at the end), and my Star Mako3 is too unpredictable. It's great when thrown at about 50-75% power, but it's SO easy to throw it a little bit too hard and have it turn over. So I want to replace the Mako3, and just carry 2 mids. And was hoping the new MD3's were actual 5/5/0/1's. I'm getting really close to having the perfect bag and that's one of the last discs I want.
From what I have thrown, the new MD3's are more HSS, but less LSS. All the old md3's I threw had a bit of turn after a little seasoning, and a teensy drift to the right when fresh, then a predictable and moderate fade. These new MD3'S are very true to the 0,1 turn,fade numbers imo. I use them in the 275'-350' range, and they will hold the release angle for 80% of the flight and then fade gently. The IS3 seems to have a little more fade, maybe even 0,2. But I find the new MD3'S to be much more of a laser straight disc than a baby s-curve or flip to flat disc like the old md3's. If you don't generate a lot of spin or have a bit less arm speed, I could see them acting more overstable than Innova produced runs
And when you say less LSS, you mean LESS fade at slow speed? Correct? Which would mean, these new MD3's would be more straight to small fade? Compared to the old ones that are a straight to moderate fade.
