[Innova] closest to innova disc

[sm1991]

what innova disc is closest to a discraft xpress

 

[JTacoma03]

I've not extensively thrown an Xpress - only tossed it a couple times - but I'd say a Cheetah or heavier Leopard.

based on the numbers, (xpress is 8, 5, -3, 1) i'd say an Archangel which is 8, 6, -4, 1

ok thanks i like my xpress but its getting wrecked and turns over which is great but i want it to straight again

 

[JTacoma03]

It's not nearly as squirrely as an archangel. My gf has both of those discs in her bag.

cheetah might be a good bet. maybe a little more stable, should break in to a nice "xpress"-ish disc

I bought one that was so understable that I couldn't make it hyzer if I tried. I couldn't get rid of it fast enough... I quit rolling a long time ago...

Yeah, but if I personally had to choose I'd take a Champ or Star leopard over the DX-only Cheetah. That's just me though...

i just got a KC pro cheetah from Tim. hope i like it :|

What kind of plastic is your xpress?
A new Z plastic will hold it's stability for a long time.

Mine was X... no stability to begin with... could have been a bad one??? It was easily the most understable disc I've ever thrown.

when I was new to DG, I was looking for understable plastic. i asked at the local pro shop in AZ (spinners) for the most understable driver from discraft and the xpress was the recommended disc. i actually never got it since i bought something else from the used rack, but this was the info that was passed on to me.

 

[sm1991]

Mine is an old elite z. Bought it for three dollars off some guys swimming for discs and today during my round I hit a tree and took a marginable chunk out of the rim. Like a half inch right where your fingers wrap around it and I like innova better or I would just get another!

I just traded away my Z xpress (found) and have an elitex first run xpress that is relatively flippy. The Z was stable, kinda like a leopard, flipped but not super flippy. The X Xpress was was like a slower sidewinder.

Isn't the X rated at -1 for stability by Discraft? (the Z is rated at 0)

It's meant to be flippy .. it's a roller disc ...
