i've been giving the latitude a trial run for the past few months and am loving it. i'm basically throwing all latitude or westside aside from my buzzzes and wizards. i'm throwing a gold line fuse instead of a meteor. i didn't care for the opto fuse i had first, but am digging the gold line. for me it's a unique disc in that i can throw it flat and it will ride straight for a long time and then turn over late. on a hyzerflip it will ride flat forever, and if you throw it on an anny it tends to stay turned over. i replaced my wasp with a gold line pain. it is a bit more overstable than the wasp, and i haven't beaten it up enough to say how it flies once broken in.
for drivers i've got a diamond that i'm using in place of a 150 class champ leopard. pretty similar discs flight wise but i think the diamond isn't quite as stable. i'm throwing a gold line river in place of my leopard, similar flight for me but i get better distance with the river. my gold line striker is teebirdish, i think the striker is a bit faster and has a touch more glide. i replaced with my sidewinder with a vision and that's worked out well so far. xxx is a firebird/monster replacement and i mainly use it for overhand shots and forehand flicks. i've been toying with the flow/bolt/havoc/king for max d shots, and haven't really decided on the go to driver yet. i'd maybe liken the flow to a bit longer wraith. when i get up on my gold line flow it flies a similar line to my river, just faster and longer. some people have mentioned that the flow is very nose angle sensitive, and i haven't thrown it enough to really notice. the westside sword is comparable to the flow, and supposedly not as nose angle sensitive. the bolt is long and understable, i can't say that i've thrown a vulcan to compare it to. my bolt will turn over a decent amount but has some stability to fade back late. it crushes in a tailwind. the havoc is similar to the bolt, but i think mine is a hair more hss and lss. i used to throw bosses for max d flex shots and have been throwing the westside king lately the most for max d. thrown flat it gets out there in a hurry, might track slightly and fade back pretty predictible. i can throw a king further than i could my boss. it's also a crazy long forehand disc.
in the past few months i've really been working on cleaning up my form, so about 80% of my throws have been with my wizards, fuses, and buzzzes. i haven't had a ton of practice with my drivers but those are some rough comparisons. i personally prefer gold line plastic over opto, although opto is nice plastic also. i think gold line is easier to spot, but it doesn't seem to be as stable as opto.
