This is my only concern with the Axis. According to the technical standards, the Axis is 2mm taller than the Buzzz (2.1cm vs 1.9cm). Did you get some forehand throws in? Would you say it's comfortable?
Taller? It seems a bit shorter, to me. I compared them side by side visually and actually used calipers to check the rim thicknesses. See post #103: Mike C did some profile pics of the Axis vs. the Vector, Roc, Comet, Buzzz, etc.
I don't FH much at all, so I wouldn't be a good judge of that. Only to get out of trouble or to reach around trees, etc.
Comfort really becomes a perception thing...too personal to really say...I'm 6-3 so my hands are bigger than average. So the extra .5mm of thickness in the Buzzz really helped me with comfort and release consistency. Some here have said it felt like a Buzzz in their hands, I think it felt more like a Roc, but I was keying in on the rim...without the round bead, it is "more comfortable"
Of course, other tall players do rather well with the Roc (some guy named Climo, I think) And Mike C looks fairly tall and is cranking the heck out of them and his putters, so maybe I just stink...
So it's a beadless Roc or a thinner rimmed Buzzz...it's a good disc and I will most likely invest some time into figuring it out. I spend a year on Rocs only and then a year on Buzzzs only...may do the same with the Vector/Axis.
