Also the plastic is shockingly nice - have you been helping Gateway pick premium blends?I agree with Enforcer comp.
Not the longest flyer but very comfy and reliable.
Very firmly in the 12, 3, 0, 3 slot which is capable of FH lines as well as powerful BH shots.
Actually no. DaveMac purchased a new molding machine last year I believe that really improved their ability to run premium plastics.Also the plastic is shockingly nice - have you been helping Gateway pick premium blends?

They have been making some incredible discs the last year.
I think the premium blends that Gateway is cranking out is superior to anything Innova/Discraft have ever done. Very much on par with Trilogy and Prodigy in terms of feel and performance.
It's amazing having Gateway being our local manufacturer AND creating discs for RDG. Their consistency has become increasingly impressive, their molds are SO STEADY and I am playing some fantastic DG using just St. Louis made discs.

The Spell is money, and 2 new 12 speeds (Realm and Ether) are just as perfect with more glide and distance potential!got me of these guys and it's a bomber my first three throws were 420, 435, 460 forehands. It can take some pop and only turned over when I was being stupid.

They are both very torque resistant. I throw 550+ backhand and a standard Realm on a full power throw will hold a small turn for a bit but then reliably come back. Ether is less stable but still handles power very well. Tends to turn a bit more and fade less. Also, the Reptilian Carnivore is the same mold as the Ether just branded differently. The Carnivore might have an NXT blend of plastic that is specific to it which explains the difference in flight numbers.Are they as stable under speed as the Spell?
It is really nice to have.550'+ is awesome.
I like watching guys with real power throw flex bombs with disc that are straight to early fade for me.
The Blade was never supposed to be as stable as FAF Firebirds or anything of the sort. It was made to rival the Sexton Firebird which is the optimal stability for 95% of players looking for that 9 speed overstable flex disc. Some versions of HD are more overstable, and the Spirit will fill that slot for anyone with 450-550 feet of flex power.It is really nice to have.
It definitely makes discs perform differently. For example, the Gateway Blade was retooled earlier this year and was supposed to be beefy like a Firebird. I had a 1000+ rated player hand me one to throw on a 350 dogleg left hole. I proceed to throw it dead straight 70 feet long over the road OB. I'm like, I thought it was supposed to be stable and he's like it is for me lol.
Spirit is a great disc but the ones I have go too far for this slot. The superglow and HD ones I have can go pretty darn far and when I'm wanting a FAF Firebird type disc I want one I can't throw 400+The Blade was never supposed to be as stable as FAF Firebirds or anything of the sort.

Cory told me originally they wanted to retool it again because it didn't come out stable enough but maybe they were trying to make one mold work across various stabilities. You work there so you know better than I do LOL. I agree with Moose, Spirit is the right stability but is just too fast and goes to far for that slot. They just don't have enough control at shorter range.The Blade was never supposed to be as stable as FAF Firebirds or anything of the sort.

We have been working on some more stable runs, but it would almost take us making illegal discs (which the FAF Firebirds technically are) that are super stiff. If you need a really stable one, I believe we have a couple old HD left in the pro shop. Shoot me or Cory a message, and we will hook it up!Cory told me originally they wanted to retool it again because it didn't come out stable enough but maybe they were trying to make one mold work across various stabilities.
