[Innova] Thunderbird

[thechamp]

I'll pick up a pumpkin and break it into a bomber.

 

[thechamp]

If this becomes the new blend of star innova could firm up gstar a little.

 

[ranger]

Who knows. The vcobras that just showed up are on the softer side.

 

[thechamp]

True.
Just wishful thinking on my part.

 

[ranger]

I'm not sure innova could ever have a consistent blend over the long term

 

[PMantle]

I just got a Star delivered. It feels like...Star.

 

[PWaggoner]

So my dx thunderbird is pretty awesome.

Its got some damage now and its still flying very stable. It does have a little bit of flip now from hyzer.

Only thing is that very stiff plastic kinda hurt my fingers and hand. Even in like 50 degree weather.

Its weird ive only had fresh echo star with sharp flashing ever hurt my fingers.

Im still tossing them. Itll just make more callouses.

Ill let yall know if i get a nice turnover one, anybody else beat one in already?

 

[Kodachrome]

Every time I see a new post on dx thunderbirds, my pd get nervous and slap the phone out of my hands.

@pw

That was my goal but it was killing my fingers in the cold.

Nah, mine seem immune to damage. One's got some nicks and dents on it, but still flying very stabley with a nice fade. It doesn't help that it rained in Portland every single day in December until yesterday (literally); I haven't been out playing a lot lately. :\

Yeah, I nailed a tree once and it didn't take a scratch like any other DX I know. Really love these DX ones.

Hey guys, I have a comparison question.
Boatman
Sampo
Thunderbird
Dominator

These all besides speed rate relatively the same. Anyone have some real experience with these?

I have experience with the Thunderbird and Dominator. They are nothing alike, nothing at all.

sorry, i accidently slipped that in there because im considering getting one and it was on my mind haha.

Haha, SD86 beat me to it. Dominator is way flippier than any of the Thunderbirds I've thrown (granted I've only thrown a FR Dominator). I have no experience with the Trilogy discs you mentioned though, sorry.

 

[7ontheline]

I throw Orcs further than the Boatman. Boatman just doesn't glide before fading out, similar to an Xcal, which seems like a waste of a wide rim if you ask me since it doesn't go super far.

 

[smarkquart]

The Thunderbird is essentially the most STABLE Sword you have ever thrown.

 

[andhjo0131]

The Elasto Sampo and the Thunderbird are quite similar but a fresh Elasto Sampo has a little more fade. The VIP Sampo is way more understable though. Really big difference between VIP and Elasto with the Sampo.

 

[JamesXC]

The Elasto Sampos from the Trilogy Challenge are a little more overstable than a fresh Thunderbird while the production VIPs are a little less stable. The Boatman is a very different disc. I like to think of the Thunderbird/Sampo as a Speed 10 Teebird, but the Boatman is more like an Eagle L. It comes out of the box with some definite turn right out of your hand, though the eventual fade is similar to the other two.

Dominator is a completely different disc.
