Thanks, Glong! That's the number I wanted to hear.

Aviar is 170g.

I have 7/10 or better 1991 DX Chains Aviar, blue with rainbow stamp. What's it worth?

I've got a lightweight, 165g-ish Champion XG Aviar and I'm not a big fan of it for anything. My 168g Champion XG Aviar, a little more stiff, is way better as a utility disc I find. However, my 176g R-Pro Aviar is my baby when it comes to putting and short drives. I learned a lot about throwing...

Any recommendations for a noodle arm looking for a true overstable driver? All I have for overstable drivers are a 167g CFR Teebird+ and a 171g Pro Destruclcan-anomaly super dome thing that flies pretty understable for a Destroyer, but I don't have the arm for it right now.

I'm considering buying some Izod sun protection polo-styled golf shirts from Herberger's for disc golf... You may want to check your local BonTon Corporation store for the golf clothes!

I liked the DX Viking that I had, I totally forgot about how much I liked that disc until now. I have a Champion Valkyrie now so I can't see myself running out to get a Viking for awhile. I gave the Viking to my nephew, who's pretty young. He's a baseball player, though. They always seem to do...

I doubt too many people will say it, but an Archangel is incredibly understable, good for turnover drivers and rollers. I have only thrown a DX one, and it's beat to all hell so I've retired it for awhile, until I can find a solid use for it. I've heard Champion ones are better, but I would...

Has anyone seen pearly ones? I would be curious to see how that looks, or if it's even really possible.

You should test out a higher speed disc (XS, Valkyrie, XL, Eagle, etc.) and make your decision from there. Technically you should be able to throw any disc any amount of distance, it's just some discs it's significantly easier to throw further distances. At some point, it should be possible to...

I didn't understand it, either, until I realized that the thumb molds were different distances away from the rim. I thought it was to find a better grip, honestly.

I love my Elite X XS, it's a pretty HSS disc but it breaks in nicely and becomes a pretty good slight turnover driver.

Change your pants and relax, please. You've already proven that you don't know nearly as much as you think. :thmbup: Please don't get mad at me because I looked at the potential flight numbers (which, are potential, so you can't say you know everything and that it will be just like a dd2), and...

I know the numbers don't match up, but they're still similar.

The dimple stuff from Quest, I believe is one of the few innovations that can actually be proven to be true. Obviously, it's the same idea as a golf ball, so there's more surface area, meaning more glide because there's more contact with air.
