The Westside Tursas is an understable midrange that excels at flying straight, hyzer flipping, or turning over... extremely easily. I was surprised at how smooth this disc flew and how simple it was to hit lines with it- I think you might be, too

Everyone needs a friend who tells them when they look like blippy. You should value that guy.
I didn't notice til you said it tho! 😂
Also, I have an uplink which is awesome when thrown just a little nose up to counter the turn. Maybe this disc would let me throw just a little flatter. Cool video. Not talked about enough!
My Tursas is the oldest disc in my bag! In my opinion, it's also the most underrated "get out of tree jail" roller disc. I've absolutely parked more than a few 150 foot scramble shots from out of the woods. I don't throw it in open air often, but it's "East Texas Scramble" potential makes it a staple in my bag!
I'll always carry a couple "side pocket" discs for things like forehand rollers out of the woods... doesn't happen often, but they're great to have when the time comes around 😅
I bag this and the Underworld for those understable shots. Westside has some solid discs and GREAT plastic feel. The rest of Trilogy too
Yeah, Westside does great with understable slots across the board, it seems
Great title! I love a disc that's just smooth and tough to throw a bad shot with.
Others ive tried that were like this were the River, Innova's Mirage, MVP uplink and my go to driver, the Sidewinder.
I've never heard anyone speak poorly of the River. And there have been so many Uplink comments that I'm going to have to try one...
@@ArmoryDiscGolf here I am. I cannot figure out the river. Least consistent disc I own. Throw nose up and it's super over stable. Nose down and it turns and burns. I just can't trust it for some reason.
Love the uplink. Get it up high and let it sail to the right.
I got one recently and thought I was crazy for having the same experience. I don't often have a nose up problem, but the River seems to get nose up a bunch and when I throw it well it turns too much. I love my Leopard3 so I'll probably just stick with that. It was refreshing to hear someone else with a sub par River experience haha@@joem8496
Discraft Archer is what I have in this slot. Such an underrated disc. But after watching this I’ll be picking up a tursas
The Discraft Archer is one that a lot of locals here love, which is really interesting to me bc I don't see too many people talk about it online. I need to try it
I throw an uplink in that slot. That plastic does look great.
another vote here for the Uplink!
Uplink gang coming out in force in the comments haha. I need to throw one
@@ArmoryDiscGolf hey now. Mint plastic feels great. I have never thrown the lobster but it sounds like a great disc too.
Tursas is my current favorite disc.
Nuanced is the right word; it's more gently predictable and less radical than the Paradox or Diamond I bag.
Yikun Discs Shu is what I use. Thing's unreal understable 😂 Super fun to throw, though.
I'm unfamiliar with their lineup, but I'm expecting to see more and more of them over the next few years, given how much they produce for other companies
Hyzerflip mids are some of my favorite discs. I currently bag a Doomsday Scavenger which seems like it might be slightly more understable than the Tursas, but I'm a hyzer player anyway so I like 'em flippy.
Doomsday is on the up! I've been hearing from a lot more people that are throwing their stuff recently
@@ArmoryDiscGolf my bag is like ~70% Doomsday and I always end up being that guy in a tournament where everyone wants to look at your whole bag because they've never seen any of the discs before.
Thanks for the shout out. 😆
As always, great content.
yessir, this was a great recommendation! If this was an orange orbit Tursas, I think it would be taking the Lobster's slot. I'll be on the lookout...
I have a VIP Tursas in my bag. It is great. I also have a Neutron Paradox for when I need even easier turn.
We have a video slated where the Paradox makes an appearance, I'm excited to try that one out too. Curious how well it rolls
Love my Tursas! It’s so controllable.
So good on so many different angles. What plastic do you prefer?
@@ArmoryDiscGolf I like the VIP plastic for my Westside drivers. It’s fairly firm, but still a bit flexible and grippy.
@@danno1982 VIP is great. I want to try some of the new Ice stuff from them, too
I just use a destroyer for everything from drive to putt
this is the way.
@@ArmoryDiscGolf this is the way.
Hi Ohn!
Great editing sir 🤙 been throwing a fission hex in this slot definitely need to revisit the tursas soon
Appreciate it. My Hex is actually much more stable than this, but I want to try a Fission to see if I can get a more understable flight from it
Origin is my understable mid at this moment. I had tursas when I was a beginner. Tournament plastic was very flippy
The Origin is a great step up in stability. That disc has been staring down my Lobster for months for that slot in my bag haha
Also, I've never thrown Tournament (just this Orbit Tournament)- curious if this looks more stable than what you experienced
Good put, Blippi.
🤓
If I wasn't in love with me Lobster, I might return back to my first sea love, the Tursas. That plastic makes it hard though.
Haha the understable sea critter gang. I'm on Sublime Lobster rn, but this orbit stuff they're putting out... 😯
@@ArmoryDiscGolf I throw sublime over Apex as well. It's just a little more controllable. Even the orbit can't hold a candle to the metallic blue and purple swirl I got going on.
@@axlespelledwrong haha I bet, I've seen some crazy ones. Big Mint fan.
I used to throw the Lobster. Great disc but more flippy than what I want. Then I got the Mana. Seems similar to your Tursas. Very reliable and it's a staple in my bag.
We're the Lobster and Mana in the same plastic? This Sublime Lobster I have is a bit more stable than my Apex, but I've wanted to try the glow Mana in that slot too
@@ArmoryDiscGolf my Mana is in Glow, the Lobster I had was Apex. The Glow is a touch more stable in general.
Meta Origin with a sublime lobster backup waiting it's turn.
I have a L64 Fuse and DM Origin for my understable shots. Fuse purely backhand hyzerflips, Origin for forehands and backhands that I want to fight out more than the Fuse will.
Ohhh I bet that Origin gives some smoooth forehand flights
U used to bag an uplink but I found it ila bit touchy. I currently have a Clash Discs Peach in that slot and love it.
Clash discs feel amazing too, so it's a win all around
Tursas is great for a gentle turnover; it's an uderstable that lacks the radical outcome of so many other's I've tried
I ordered one of the cotton candy ones. PATRON-ALITY!! FINISH HIM!!
You're the man. Couldn't do this without y'all 👊
Enjoy it!
I bag a Mint Lobster in that spot, but if y’all have any with the Gunslinger Frog stamp that would be sweet.
We've got Gunslinger Lobsters. All of the Tursas we have right now are in this cotton candy combo colorway
I have a vio tursas...got to use a lot of hyzer....maybe the ice orbit would be a little more stable
Westside warship!
My most used midrange
Straight as an arrow
What plastic do you like it in? Tournament feels great imo
Wombat3 is great too.
I've been intrigued by the Wombat3 for a while. Specifically because it's cool seeing GG lace with them
I like the Jester discs mana in that slot
I think the Jester Peace Train, TSA Mana, and Mint Lobster are the same mold (from what I've heard). Great discs
I throw a Lone Star Lone Wolf that’s a lot flippier. But my work horse is that range is a beat in MVP Relay, just one click faster
Been moving a lot of Relays lately. That disc is amazing in the woods
@@ArmoryDiscGolf I have 3… You should sell em in 3, 5, and 10pks lol
@@Superfly816 taking notes... lol
My tursas is pretty flippy, it almost always turns over, even on exteme hyzer. Its the tournament orbit plastic.maybe I should try it in their opto plastic.
Interesting, this one was understable but definitely still workable. I think the Tournament Orbit has been more stable than Opto in most people's experience but I've never thrown the Opto myself
I switched to the Origin for about 2 months and I found that the Tursus just comes out of my hand cleaner and is overall more predictable in its flight. I felt like I couldn't power up on the Origin without burning it over where the Tursus I can throw soft or if I need to I can juice it a little....and it glides for days! That was the original reason I switched it out of the bag, it goes too far.
Yeah, the Tursas has that "frisbee" status where you can just flick your wrist and it'll float straight through the air. Can be good or bad, but it's a lot of fun to throw
Right now I'm using a max weight M4 400 plastic. Butt its a bit more stable then I expected.
Yeah I feel like M4s are like Hexes in that they start out with some stability before really breaking into -1 turn
Vip ice Tursas is moneyyy😉
The Ice plastic looks and feels so nice. Sooo many new plastics coming out from Trilogy it's kinda hard to keep up haha
I throw a Tursas in VIP plastic. Might have to pick up one of these tournament orbit ones in a brighter color because mine is dark purple.
I think these are a touch more stable, as well. All the ones we got in the last shipment were this same cotton candy color combo
@@ArmoryDiscGolf I'm thinking I might go with one of the new moonshine ones. I heard the glow is bretty bright on those.
@@Samu-dx6eb I know a lot of companies have been trying to up their glow game, including trilogy. I haven't seen one personally yet but I'm sure it's great
It looks more like a Roc than the other understable mids out there, which feels better in my hand.
But this would be something to replace my old beat Roc so I won't have to beat something into a -2 just to have it.
I respect Roc throwers, but hate the way that disc feels in my hand for some reason 🤷♂️
I can definitely see the resemblance, though. If you're ok with a "beadless Roc", I'd give it my recommendation for sure
I think you just found out why there are relatively few understable midrange options.
Most of us prefer the same feel so we can trust the release, but with a beat up version, we know it’s going right on a backhand.
@@brandynbeyer5130 I guess they figured it out on this Tarsus. Looks like a domey Roc, I'm gonna try one.
I throw a midnight prowl which is a little less stable than an origin maybe- so similar to a Tursis? I do also have a Tursis though on my shelf and I may need to cycle it back in. I definitely like having a disc like this in the bag. Another place I use it is a throw where I'd using a more stable mid (Buzz, Hex etc.) but have to do a standstill. Get about the same distance with the extra turn.
The standstill tech is a good idea. One of the pros of the Tursas for me is that it feels better when you want to fan grip and just pop your wrist, but the Origin feels better to me with a full on power grip 🤷
@@ArmoryDiscGolf interesting. Ill have to put them both in the bag and play around with them.
I throw a V-Cobra in this slot & I also have a beat in MF Roc3 that has a similar flight in a slight headwind.
Cobra is such a slept on mold. V is more stable?
@@ArmoryDiscGolf Depends on the plastic, but the King cobra is supposed to be the more stable disc out of the Cobra, V-Cobra & King Cobra.
My son bags a Tursas but I'm using a little faster Innova IT for an understandable mid/fd.
The IT is a great disc, just kinda touchy for those shorter shots with that added speed
More stable than uplink?
I don't think I've ever thrown an Uplink so I can't give an informed opinion on that one, sorry
I throw a Discraft Archer in that slot, just a little more under stable than the Tursas.
It's funny, I feel like I never knew anyone who threw that disc until this year. But now I feel like I hear about it all the time
I throw the Bounty in that slot which is a tad slower have to try
Is the Bounty still in production or is that one that they recently retired?
@@ArmoryDiscGolf I have no idea i've had it for 2 years from Mystery box I have ace under its belt
@@chris4710-s5q big fan of continuing to throw ace discs. They work, keep 'em in the bag! haha
Mana baby. All the way!
We've got some glow Mana coming in, I'm really curious as to how they compare to my Lobster
It’s halo so it is likely, slightly more stable than the average no?
This was the first Tursas I've ever thrown, but based on comments (and typical halo experience) I think you're right
Is it similar to the fuse cuz that’s what I throw 😊
Yeah, the Fuse is a touch more stable. But it's probably very close to this Tournament Orbit plastic, which from what I gather is a bit more stable than other runs of Tursas
evidence, warrant
Bounty
man, two retired discs... they still make them as special runs from time to time though, yeah?
These are overstable times we are living in my friend. I think your right I got an evidence in the fusion orbit mystery box. the warrant comes in the starter pack
Is it any different than a buzzz ss?
Definitely has a different feel to it. But it's been a long time since I've thrown a Buzzz SS- from my recollection, a Z Line one is more stable than a Tursas
SS is super stable this Tursus is the other end of the stability spectrum. Tursas will keep an anhyzer line where a buzz will not
@chupacabra8821 no... the "ss" stands for super straight, and it is slightly less stable than the already fairly straight Buzzz. Holds anny all the way to the ground. I believe the flight #s for the 2 discs are identical.
@@ericjepson3765 what is a Disc says, and what it does or two different things. I’ve been begging you buzz ss for years and u asked for an opinion. They fly completely different of each other. That’s my two cents for what it’s worth.
Comet clone?
hand up, I've never thrown a Comet. I DO remember picking one up and thinking "this feels bad", and I don't feel that way about the Tursas, but that's all the insight I can give there
more like a meteor, but i prefer the tursas now
Paradox
That'll make an appearance here shortly, I'm curious to see just how flippy they are
i throw a buzz ss
From what I remember they're a tick more stable. Does that seem right to you based on looking at this, or would you say they're about the same?
Ur right, but when it beats a little in.. i think its perfect :)
LOBSTER
Lobster gang 🦞
Trash Panda Dune. Just a bit of flip, and won't do anything but go straight on the line you throw it. Glides forever, that disc just wants to fly.
Trash Panda has figured out how to make discs that go straight, the Inner Core and Dune are both like that. Excited for them to make a fairway driver, I bet it'll be the same
@@ArmoryDiscGolf Hoping they do as well, but right now the Crave is in that spot.
I just got one today I think my natural heavy Hyzer will like it 🥏👍
Oh yeah, if you're a hyzer thrower you're going to enjoy some laser straight lines 👌
