Echostar

[agent_peebody]

I didn't say anything about the E* Boss. Screw that, I want an E* Teebird.

i love the E* TBs. the shop at my local course had like 25 this summer

I don't know about the 'normal' stamp Echo plastic, the Echo Bosses I have are from the USDGC if that makes any difference on stability. Stashed away I've got some first run Echo Xcalibers, but haven't checked the stability of those verses other Xcalibers. Guess I will if and when I start throwing them. Got another Echo Xcaliber I traded for that I may go do comparisons with today just to see if there's any noticeable difference. For Echo Teebirds, I don't have any so I can't weigh in but one local pro is convinced the green ones are waaay more stable than any other Teebirds short of the 11x KC's.

I have two bosses, both of which are pretty overstable, also have a xcal, and it too is way overstable.

why are all the echo star discs heavy?

and if I am wrong on that can some one point me to a less than 170 echo star destroyer?

I wish Innova would have a more complete explanation of what discs are offered in Echo Star and how this plastic tends to fly based on other platiscs.

 

[agent_peebody]

they do. it's called www.innovadiscs.com

 

[matrix2113]

I think the echo discs offered are: Kite, Mako, Teebird, Destroyer, XCal, Boss, Katana, Dart, and Wraith

 

[agent_peebody]

valks too

 

[steve a]

also Stingrays

 

[Kent18]

Yeah i am on that innova site like every other day other than 2 sentences about what echostar is made out of recyled discs i don't see where they share every model they make and how they fly?

 

[agent_peebody]

when you're looking at, say, the Teebird on innova's site, it shows you all plastic it's available in.

they fly very similar to star, if different at all

What I'm looking for is a Star TB that beats into a straight to turnover disc faster, but will hold that sweet spot for a long time... maybe such a thing doesn't exist, but I want it anyway.

 

[agent_peebody]

try a sirius JLS. it's got the TB top, whippet bottom, and it's made from innova's star plastic

wouldn't that make it slower and more overstable?

 

[agent_peebody]

it's rated speed 9 for some reason. :\

but for me, they fly like a seasoned champ TeeBird. i carry 4 in my bag (new, used, seasoned, and BEAT) and they replaced my TBs, TLs, and Leopards all in one disc.

 

[Kent18]

ok I think i am getting it. I just now realized that if they offer it in Star plastic then they also offer it in EchoStar? Because if not, I still can't figure it out, but I know mostly what models are in echostar already from other disc golf online stores, I just wish it was more clear on innova's site. I would love an echostar viking or orc too bad they don't make those.

 

[agent_peebody]

no echo valks or orcs to my knowledge.

they just released Pro Orcs D) and i squealed like a girl when i heard that

i don't think that's true. i've never seen an echo star:

eagle
coyote
TL
leopard
rhyno
aviar (this seems feasible though)

but they make all those in star

 

[Kent18]

haha cool.

 

[Kent18]

Pro Orcs. I would be interested. My best disc is a 167 like super clear like champion Orc. Most controllable 350. The pro would have more glide?
