Well they have released pretty much all the anticipated/announced discs for this year, so they can maybe start working on plastics now.
Agreed.

How does the Relay compare to the Inspire and Theory? I don't really want a slightly shorter Inspire, I want a longer Theory.

You should try the Relay, for sure.
Wonder if we can make a Proton Motion/Fireball happen? I'd throw that.
I was going to post this in a new thread, but I figure this one is active enough so...
I have a 165g N Inspire that I use as my primary fairway driver. It does just about everything for me. I can put it on a hyzer and it will hold, I can throw it on a long anhyzer that it will hold to the ground, and I can throw it on a nice S curve when thrown flat to shape some lines on tight fairways. It's a bit too long for several of the tunnel shots on some of the courses around here, so I use an N Theory for those shots. The problem with the Theory is it needs some height for some of the holes and they have a low ceiling. So after playing in a Circuit event a few weeks ago, I found the Signal, when thrown on a pretty steep hyzer, worked pretty well as a straight hyzerflip disc on those holes. Problem is I let my wife try the Signal when she was having some problems with her 150 class Valk, and she likes it. So it's in her bag now.
Long set up for this question. How does the Relay compare to the Inspire and Theory? I don't really want a slightly shorter Inspire, I want a longer Theory. The Signal is a little more flippy and requires more touch, so I was thinking the Relay would probably work, but if it has the fade of the Inspire, I don't think it will work as well for the shots I want it for.
I know the Inspire doesn't get a lot of love on this board, but for those of you who have thrown all of the above discs, what are your thoughts?
They already have Proton Fireballs
So how does it compare to the Inspire. I use to bag three Inspires: a 154g, a 165g, and a 174g. While I loved the disc, I found that I could cover more shots with the Relay and then the Inertia. The Relay powers down beautifully and for me can act like a mid range disc. Given enough rotational power on the release, the Relay can go out as far as the Inspire for me. What I a wishing for now is an overstable disc in the same 16mm class. That would be just fine by me.
This is what I wanted to hear. I am mainly looking for more of a typical midrange type shot for the Relay. The Inertia is my max D driver and the Crave and Inspire cover all my fairway shots.
Now the question is, which weight should I get?. I like 160's usually. DGC has a white 159g in stock. Haven't seen anything else close to that weight at most places. Will the lighter weight make it too close to the Signal? I could pay a little more at Infinite and get a 166.
I have not thrown anything that is not max weight. I normally thrown lighter discs but I fear that lighter ones will really turn. I have thrown the Signal and it is really flippy -- a good roller disc though.
I finally started throwing rollers because of the Signal as well.People bash the Signal for being too understable...I love my Signal for rollers. Hit 500' with it the other day in an open field. I thought it got down with too much angle, but slowly flipped up and just didn't want to stop. Great release, imo.
