So I'm looking for a nice speed 9-11ish hyzer-flippin' disc. I would like one that just flattens out on a clean hyzer release before it fades back. I don't really want it to drift to the right too much, but rather stands up and then fades forward.

Just FYI, I can push my Eagles out to about 400', but I can't get them to flip. Mainly on a big S. My 178g Comet will go about 325' before it gets squirrely.

I've been contempating a Tern, Sidewinder, or Crank. I've had success with the Escape and Saint, but would like something that would be a little farther with little better HSS. The Saint would get a little finicky.
 
Try a Prometheus... Seriously. I know you said speed 9-11. But if you can generate the spin, that is exactly what you are looking for
 
Go with a Innova Champion Tern if you want to try the higher speed.

I can get this thing to fly straight for a bit then slowly fade. I can push the Champion Tern to about 430ft.

The Innova Star Tern is a hyerflip machine for me though. I can push these out farther than my Champion. I can get my Star Tern out to 450ft on a good hyerflip.
 
Ran out of time to edit.

The Sidewinder is another good one. I just have a Star Sidewinder,but it has seen many many throws and this sucker still performs. It's real easy to control for those tight wooded shots. Hyzer-flip for days.
 
Star Orc will sit up and run straight with a decent fade.

I feel like I'm the only person that loves this disc....
 
400' with an eagle, dude, you throw far! ^ I think rivers are less than you're requested speed 9-11.

I like the Renegade's 2.1cm rim, speed 11 (same width as a wraith). Should be a hyzer flip to 450' with your power. Trespass has a similar width rim but is more stable and 10% longer than the renegade for me so I'm guess off the charts D for a 400' fairway driver thrower.
 
Hands down a star tern, With a hyzer release it will come out, flip flat, roll over maybe 3-4 feet then a smooth finish left
 
I've owned a Tern and bag a few Prodigy D# drivers, all have wider rims than the OP's speed 9-11 request.

Why not just suggest the Prometheus? I read its not overstable so a power thrower would probably need to hyzer flip it, except it has the widest possible PDGA approved rim width at 2.6cm so its prolly a midrange :rolleyes:
 
My suggestion is an Gold Line or Opto Fury.

Other acceptable suggestions are a star or champion sidewinder, or a roadrunner in whatever star or champion plastic Innova makes those in.

I have stack of Orcs, but they are all just a little too stable. They don't flatten out the way I want. Beautiful pure hyzer disc though.

No pro wraith? Ok. Change my suggestion to a Gold Line River or Volt. Both take ink like a champ, too.

I have a Opto River that I like for this shot, but looking for something a tad longer. It has a great dye. 3 oldest disc I have.

I bought into the disc down Kool-Aid and it paid off. It's fun to watch people throw a Nuke 350', and I can get there with a Wasp.;)

What is the Renegade similar too?

I tossed a Orc until I found the PD. To the OP, I'd say your best bet is to get a S PD & beat it in.

I've tried S-PD 3 different times, but they take so long to break in, that I just give up on them. Maybe I just need to be patient.

My biggest issue with faster than a speed 11, is my finger are just not as long. The rims always seem to sit funny in my hands. I threw a Nuke SS for the first time and could do $#!% with it because it was too hard to find a clean release because of the rim size.
