All the Pinnacle Patriots I've felt still have a gummy feel to them. They're firm(er) though. I bag one of them and an Icon, too.

Couldn't agree more on the Legend Patriot. Anything straight between 330-380 and it's getting thrown. Laser beam straight with hardly any fade on the end. I pair mine with a well worn icon patriot that only goes right. The Legend Rival that I have is really flat and not beefy at all. It has just a touch more stability than my Legend Patriot. And then there's the minty blue pinnacle rival that flies like an 11x Teebird. I've got all stabilities covered between those four disc's for any fairway situation that arises.

What colors are everybody's Legend Patriots?
The pinks I posted are definitely gummy. I thought the only gummy run was the white 160's but these feel exactly the same. I asked Wade at DGC if he had any gummy pinnacles and sure enough he said he had gummy pinks. I was sceptical at first but these are the real deal! My favorite patriots by far!

im throwing slimes .. more flat then domey.. prob mild dome .. mine are old too .. or about as old as a legend pat could be anyway lol .. dunno if that matters though

Two legends, a silver surfer and a dark purple/blue both max weight. The purple is still pretty new but already has some nice turn to it and settles gently back for a nice s curve. I have a broken in icon that took half the summer to develop any turn.

Just throwing a hat in the ring. Most rivals and patriots I've seen sub 169 are more likely to be gummy/grippy/flat.. Way more likely. All the fr rivals I had were stiff unless 169 or under. Same with patriots, even with stock runs now. Lighter seems to produce way more gummy discs.
I bought a bunch of super stiff first run patriots and rivals both. Fr has nothing to do with plastic feel IMO for these two. I could be wrong but this is after sifting through a ton of stock at gggt and other places.

the light blue legend and the aqua/blue pinnacle. Then some Hot pink icon stuff.. Pretty much either blue or hot pink.
My Aqua blue Pinnacle Rival is one of the beefiest ones i own (other than a fr yellow i have), i pair that with 2 light blue legends which are straight with less fade at the end and my main workhorses (which is why i keep two identical in the bag) Then i have 2 light blue legend patriots, one thats more beat and will turn over real slow with a predictable light fade at the end to prevent any bad rolls. and a fresh one that i can crush pretty hard without it turning over too much. The hot pink icon patriot will turn over more easily for me and i use it for shorter 300ish drives where i dont feel comfortable with a gauge if its a little windy or something.
I max out with the Rival at about 400', the legend light blues will hold a pretty dead straight line, with a slight drift at that distance and soft fade, the aqua blue pinnacle holds a rope and fades a little earlier and harder than the legends.
I only throw max weights.
I like how the different plastics fly slightly different though, even color can change the flight, but at least when i buy the same plastic/color/weight i know how its going to fly and that's what i like best.
Rico is making some special discs here.. too bad it took me this long to figure it out

Can't speak to the Rivals, but this is 100% true with Patriots. My gummies are as flat as FAFbirds.

just got some of the new run of blue (not the light blue or gunmetal) Legend patriots, and they are a bit more stable than the rest, im really liking how hard i can rip on them and get a straight rope with gentle late fade.
Just a heads up the new blues are nice.. i bought 4 of them right away

Those blues are my favorite blend of Legend. Slime is too firm, Purple is too soft, but Blue...Blue is just right!
