retooled Backdraft on the Left -- Which I had a chance to throw today for a while(176g stiff cryo plastic) and like the improvement for the most part as the fatter wing nose/tip makes it a more predictable flying distance driver. Pretty much the same stability as the liquid run before but not as fast and a little less glide which was especially apparent in the fade. I threw it in some 20mph headwinds and tailwinds without issues where the first run hated a headwind. Reminds me of a slower seasoned OS pop-top destroyer.
This version of the backdraft fights the wind much better as well as being less impacted by it overall from crosswinds etc plus comes out of a anhyzer harder. The re-tooling appears to have been a good thing and can see this being a better driver in all conditions at the higher power level which it was designed for.
Been throwing a little more FH's again recently and was really impressed with the easy distance I was getting from a standstill out of this new run. The wide rim plus large dome with rounded high shoulder is not the most comfortable to me throwing BH but I tend to prefer flatter discs in general. Definitely check out one of these retooled backdrafts if you haven't thrown one yet-- not sure when they will be available for retail tho'
