Looking for max weight, or as close to it as possible. Not trying to pay $25-$30 like I'm seeing on the FB auctions right now when they'll be in regular production soon enough.

I doubt they will be in any retail store anytime soon, they will be back in the factory store though. They are just a kc roc with a mcpro stamp
How can they call it a roc3 if its a kc pro roc they are completely different disc?
You're spot on here.
The Roc3 IS a different mold than the Rancho.
So no, it's not the same.
I've been unable to find any difference between the Roc3 and a Flat-Top Rancho Roc.
it's still a rancho roc top and all of the new 3 discs have the rancho roc top.
imo the roc3 is not a new mold just a new variation of the roc while the mako3 and shark3 are different from their non 3 counterparts.
Yeah I agree. If the Roc3 is a different mold, then Flat-Top Rocs are a different mold too.
From Dave Dunipace on the "Ask Dave D" thread on PDGA.com:
The new Champion Roc is a Roc. It just has a lower dome than any other Roc. I suppose it is somewhat like the Ching Rocs that the East Coast office does. Same size and weight, same rim, just lower profile flight plate. As far as flight, it is the same high speed, just not as overstable low speed, and it is a little faster as it is lower profile.
It's not by design. Molding and materials affects the ultimate rim and flight plate shape. I think the regular run of Roc3 actually feels a little concave when we are getting them just right.
opcorn:opcorn:Same here. The Roc3 was just a nice addition to my in the bag Rocs. I now carry a 175 Roc3, a 180 star/special blend (very over stable for a Roc) and a 175 flat top dx. Plus an original small diameter dx Roc from the late 1980s.
Dave can't say it's a new mold. If he did, he'd had to have had it approved. This way, it's a variation on a current mold and is allowed without a new approval process.
I have a hard time taking information as truth from the same person who said they did not put a Vulcan top on a Destroyer , and then several months later came out with a newly approved mold called the Teedevil.

Take a Kc pro Roc and a Pro / Mcpro Roc3 and put them side by side, there is a slight difference in the nose / shoulder and the Roc3 is slightly lower profile. Plus most of the Roc3's produced are flat
