(Firebird is too OS, Eagle too much turn, Teebird too straight for flex shots).
Not to derail the thread, but I'd love to know where Tridents are available at the moment!
Tridents were my original love, and once they went OOP, Banshees took their place for awhile. The Banshee rim bothered me more and more though, so I've now switched to the Resistor, and it's 100% perfect for me. The Spark I tried (post-Feldberg I assume) wasn't OS enough.
Why does Discraft not produce the Reaper again? :\
Paul should bring it back.
The closest "non" Innova disc I've found was beefy Discraft Ti Stalkers or a Discraft Reaper.
So I also was on the Speed 7(ish) OS slot. After some research and recommendations I picked up a Spark and a XXX. I tried both. I liked both. Here's my take .
SPARK:
I grabbed a goldline. immediately it felt like a sexton FB or a Teebird3...infact that's how I'll describe it, a mix between those 2. But the glide was fairly low. I rate it 7/3.5/-0.5/3 - which I think is about right...it barely had ANY turn but not a meathook at all. Like a Teebird3 that has even lower glide and a dumpier fade. It was decent and feels great in the hand. Like a Sexton FB with less harsh fade. 8/3/0/3 --- 7/4/0/2.5 - also reasonable flight #'s I would consider calling it.
XXX
Felt great, actually is a wider disc and thicker rim even though it doesn't feel OR fly like it. I would give it 8/3/04 or 7/3/0/3.5 - it is pretty OS and more than I thought it would be, but in goldline plastic it will work in eventually. A really beat XXX would be sweet - which is what a Spark kinda is. So they are both good discs for that OS fairway (that's not a Firebird) slot
Spark feels more like a speed 7 sexton FB and the xxx is like a fat eagle X feel and flies more OS than a Spark
also semi related the new star teebirds have had so much beef if i didnt see the stamp i woulda thought it was a banshee
So I wasnt crazy on Friday when my Teebird was fading harder than my damn Eagle. I thought my arm was just broken...
