Ascent a more stable Teebird?

[DiscNutt123]

I need a Teebird that won't turn in a headwind. Is an Ascent what I'm looking for? Or maybe a Banshee?

 

[Rol6566]

I was just about to say banshee or even firebird but that might be too much

 

[chickenonabun]

I like a pred for this, if you beat an ESP in it would be pretty much what you're looking for

 

[DiscNutt123]

I didn't think about a predator. I need more glide than a Firebird. I already throw Firebirds, just for big spikes and thumbers.

the Ascent is not the disc you are looking for.

banshee would fit this bill!! The ascent is close i would say it is in between the banshee and teebird. If there is a headwind the banshee flies exactly like a tee bird. the ascent is not as stable in the wind at all.

If you need more glide than the Firebird I'm guessing Banshee. I've never thrown one. I carry a Trident for that slot, but that thing has about as much glide as an apartment building.

 

[MrGlass01]

The banshee glides a little better then the firebird, but not much. I actually am using the trident now and it is very similar to the banshee. The banshee is easier to get farther the fade kicks in on the trident a lot sooner.

I love my Banshee for headwind drives. Depending on the angle you give it, it will either fly on an easy hyzer or go very straight.

The Champion Banshees seem to be more stable than the 11x Blended ones I like to throw.

The ascent flies like a Teebird covered in saran wrap.

For my arm the Ascent is right there with a new Teebird in turns of stability and loves a little headwind. It also stays right where it is because it won't wear and lose stability like the Teebird will.

Not quite sure what you're asking/telling us.

 

[austinpetz]

i have a lightweight teebird and a pretty heavy ascent.. my two weights are pretty good for fighting against whatever headwind there might be...

 

[Menacewarf]

DGA Tsunami is a good halfway between a teebird and firebird

I have a medium x-link Ascent that I've beaten to be much less stable. It takes a lot, but they'll eventually beat in.

The Ascent seems more like a star Eagle-X than a Teebird.

The Ascent seems more like a star Eagle-X than a Teebird.

over 75% of the people I know who throw the Ascent say this exact same thing.

 

[kutz167]

My Ascent is considerably less stable than my Trak is. Granted I have been using the Ascent for quite a while, but the Trak I have had for longer is more stable with less HST than my Ascent, so I would second the statement about the Ascent not being the disc you're looking for. I have heard a heavy Trak compared to a Teebird before, so maybe that will fit the bill for you.

 

[Dyoel182]

You must have worn that Ascent out. My Trak has almost no fade to it while my Ascents always fade out.

 

[Jkosk]

The Trak I have flies more or less like an Eagle X... If I got a little more specific I would say it was an Eagle X with even a touch MORE HSS but not quite as much LSS

I've never heard 2 people with the same opinion on how the Trak flies. Seems like a very inconsistent mold...

It's a little faster, but I'd try out a PD, a flatter one if you could find it.
It's what I use when there's too much wind for a teebird but a firebird will finish too far left.
