Felt each color at a local store, same profile for all 4 colors - pretty flat on top, some height/slope in the shoulder. I'd say flat compared to any Champ Banshees I've seen and similar to my flat Q EXP-X.
I think there is a newly made one without patent numbers but it's just a direct replacement. I've got a few new Rhyno and Pigs in different plastics without that thumb track patent on the top.

stock ones come out end of the June I think.
Yeah, I'm sure measuring a DX version of each would put the widths closer to the speed number they are given. The Wraith in premium blends might be an 11.5 and all...
Wysocki/Buhr on MPO
Gannon/Handley for FPO
Don't know if rain is in the forecast but probably 1 or more rounds affected by it over the weekend like past years.
Course is very picturesque and holes make pretty good use of the elevation and trees/rough that line the golf fairways. Some...
Same approved rim width as Wraith, Mamba, & Mystere which are marketed as 11 speeds? The Gorgon gets 10 speed alongside the Beast. Maybe some rounding by the PDGA approved spec for all these discs plus a slightly more blunt edge for the Gorgon (higher Rim Configuration spec)...

Wonder if this is a sign of more Banshee/EXP-X runs in the near future? Pricey but this new Proto Glow is much improved over the older 'Classic' glow + Star Glow is pretty ideal grip & flexibility.
Looking out for a restock this week in...
Hope we see some Proto Glow Star or Champ Roc3s & Jays in the same or similar blend as the Salonen AviarX3.
I'm curious the durability of the Proto Glow Star (non-Halo) for faster speed driver molds. The softer champion/star glow has always seemed to come out in putter & mid ranges.
Still throwing the somewhat recent run Champ Leopards I described below. Picked up 6 blue ones and 1 pink double stamp one from that luster-y type run (171-175g). The pink one showed turn new but the blues so far have been more straight to fade (FD/TL like) taking more power without rolling...
Feel like G* might be only useful in cold/icy conditions throwing standstills. DX/Champ/Star blends are stiffer and will roll a bit more consistently. My DX IT is a lot of fun to try unique roller lines with. Champ/Star are better flying but need some height on them to utilize the turn that...
This takes the place of the OTB Open for 2025 from what I read. Bit earlier to make it out to West coast as well so maybe dates will shift for some of the earlier Midwest tournaments to facilitate. Jonesboro then head out west? DDO later in the year around DMC/Ledgestone or maybe some shuffling...
As I said in the Sockibomb General thread, I assume they decided to come up with a new mold compatible with the Lat64 Royal/DD Supreme process & quality instead of remaking an existing named mold. War Horse & Adder might only get LE releases from now on and Giant/Sorcerer are pretty old (release...
No longer on the stamp. Debossed with the mold name on the bottom for the last few years.
Some differentiation of runs can be determined by the colors/shades, plastic appearance, and stamp foils if you are shopping online w/ only top pictures.
Quite the accomplishment to sustain that level of play for a full year with 69 rounds counting towards this May update.
Sounds like she'll be missing out on some more of the European DGPT events for wedding planning/family time back home in June & getting married (maybe in July-Aug end of...
The mold is marketed/approved as Orion LF, just search Orion and you will get results for LF/LS. 😆
I see a lot of these shops/brands having sales/deep discounts of the prior year LE runs as a kind of closeout pricing when the next season's version gets released. Always see bundle/mystery...
Light sanding to remove flashing on rim edge/bottom of rim
Make the top of the flight plate less smooth - clean with a scrubbing pad & soap + hot water
Its hard to have success & confidence if you don't know the ins and outs of how a disc behaves in various conditions, especially when dealing...
I'm guessing instead of remaking the Enforcer in a new 'Supreme' version they went with this signature line disc for Wysocki. I felt one at the DD KC shop last week and the profile seemed like it'd be a good OS distance driver. Wysocki will fill out his cart with these as they cycle in to take...
Seems like the common holes between FPO & MPO layouts are challenging for FPO and scorable for MPO (even with the par adjustment on a few for '24). Euro FPO certainly have excelled at fairway hits & tee->green play (Salonen) but Allsalu, Saarinen, and Steen all seem like solid putters and decent...
looks like not for FPO, they did have a live YT stream setup for it though (Redditor linked the now unlisted stream here )
Maybe some technical difficulty?

Large diameter (180g max weight) mid range though which is kind of unique for what the 5/3/0/4 numbers the Swarm has been given. Usually the bigger the diameter the harder to get FH spin cleanly when releasing the disc compared to smaller diameter molds which is why we usually see Justice/Gator...
