How light do discs need to be to float?

Despite reservations, I caved and got a 136g blizzard Destroyer. Bubbles in the rim only. It scales at 140g and floats very nicely...pops up quickly from full submersion.

Plastic type/density matters so much more than weight. I know that a 160g and 154g star will sink quickly, and a 158g dx will sink a bit slower. Compare that with the 169g Wahoo (mine weighs 171g) that floats perfectly...r-pro is definitely less dense. With most discs your only hope is to trap an air bubble.
