- Our featured disc is the Westside Discs Warship in the Tournament Burst Plastic. The Warship is a stable mid-range that has a lot of glide and is great long tunnel shots.
Flight Numbers:
Speed: 5 Glide: 6 Turn: 0 Fade: 1
Andrew Greenslade (Big Arm) and Brian Keegan (Average Arm) are our hosts for a look into how this disc flies.
Special thanks to Westside Discs for sending us the Warship disc that we used for this review!

Nice review! The best midrange there is in my opinion! I have ten in different plastics. I have bought a few of them new and the rest used but in very good condition.
I'd say the hybrid plastic is the most overstable, then the vip-x chameleon. Vip, vip moonshine, tournament and tournament R in my experience are pretty much the same stability when not beat in. There might be difference in how fast they beat in though. Then there is the bt origio plastic I used in winter time for better grip. Stability wise starts pretty much the same or maybe a little less stable but beats in very fast. The profile in origio plastic is a lot flatter as usual and maybe because of that it is not as glidey as the premium ones.
I usually bag the hybrid and my most beat in vip and sometimes the vip-x in the midle. The rest are for field work for which this disc is also awesome! I can easily buy the distances in this video because I myself have thrown Warship a little over 100 meters in tailwind and I have a novice old man armspeed. Two years in the game at 44 years of age.
Keep up the good work! I have enjoyed a lot of your videos! Greetings from Finland!
Thanks for the detailed comment Mark! This may be the most helpful comment we've ever had on a video! We need to do a plastic review of it for sure! Have a good one!
Possibly the most underrated disc in the sport.
After throwing it, I have to agree. I know it has a cult following and it's easy to see why.
Just started getting in to westside discs lately and this is a really fun disc. I don't have a beast arm out here but I was ripping it in to a headwind about 325 feet this morning. Great freaking glider.
I'd love to see a comparison between the Warship and TSA's Pathfinder. Comparative drone footage of which has a more gradual vs more last minute fade, which one has more glide, on a calm day, and how they react to moderate wind on a different day. That would be an awesome comparison.
I bag two of them. One in regular VIP and another in Chameleon VIP-X for those windy touch upshots. I haven't run into anyone else that bags them but once I let people throw mine they end up buying one themselves.
Great disc, I have one in VIP I used to bag. It just goes, probably further than most mids I've seen. Fun fact it used to be numbered 6/5/0/1 so almost a leopard. I haven't tried it in tournament, I would probably enjoy that as that is my favorite trilogy plastic.
I've got an old 6/5/0/1 in tournament plastic and it's the most reliable disc I've got. It just glides forever and straight aswell. It's getting beaten in though and it holds those small anhyzer shots aswell.
This guy could probably throw a 14 speed 10,000 feet
Throw it over those mountains for sure
Can you throw on a football field so we can see distances? Not buying that those were close to 400.
Yeah, I have to agree those look like internet numbers and not real distances in the video
I walked these off because my measuring wheel was broken. But i double checked them on run mapping websites. The cones aren’t exact. Just meant to provide a general idea of distance. The deep cones are roughly 380-400ft. Maybe 375ft at worst. We also had a solid 25ish mph tailwind with a very glidey mid. Considering I can throw my Rocs about 330 in calm conditions, and was throwing drivers into the same spot in other reviews... I don’t think we’re way off here.
I have bagged the Warship since day 1. No issues at all getting 350-400 FT.
Why are some warships a 6 speed and 5 glide and some 5 speed and 6 glide
6 5 is the first numbers they chose, 5 6 is the updated "flight numbers"
@@andreasstam7411 But it's the same disc?
@Vatsuggggg yes identical. After years of throwing, they realised that those numbers suited the disc better. But flight numbers are just made up, so throw one and find out😂
I love my warship, This was the first mid range I really threw. So once I tried other mid ranges they felt like putters with how far they went compared haha
had the same problem so i just keept the warship and now a made 2 aces whit it
Great video. I'm developing a newfound respect for midrange drivers because of discs like this. On the aside, what microphone and noise-cancelling wind screen are you using? I need something better than my camcorder built in shotgun mic.
Glad you noticed! I use the Zoom H4n for audio recording with a Hairy Windscreen like this one: www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1061957-REG/zoom_zwsu1_wsu_1_universal_hairy.html/?ap=y&ap=y&smp=y&smp=y&lsft=BI%3A514&gclid=Cj0KCQjwtLT1BRD9ARIsAMH3BtU69h12DKMuG7eTzNZq8dyRL00jzJe5PtEA5dYy24ScM2nlaIwcoHoaAvmVEALw_wcB
The longer the hair, the more wind it absorbs!
@@Discgolfexaminer hmm I wonder if I could install that somehow on my camcorder. Maybe a side project with glue or something. :p
hmmmm...numbers are like the new MVP Reactor, which I also thought was like a truth...
Who throws mids for distance? I thought the idea behind mids was to be able to hit shorter lines but still be able to put a full rip on it.
There may be a time where you want the distance without putting a ton of power on the throw.
@@Discgolfexaminer I thought backing off power can affect consistency of your throw though. Then why do people disc down instead of power-down?
You'll have to ask an expert (Which I am not). I personally have found that putting less power on a disc increases my accuracy.
Nice Videos Guys. One thing I would like to see is reverse throw going into the wind O.O
Tournament plastic Warship is the easiest throwing, most controllable midrange in the entire universe. Now, if they made it in Chameleon plastic, dannnnnnng.
They do.
Ohh buddy do I have something for you then😍 the chameleon one is amazing
@@andreasstam7411 i just bought 2 of them. Beautiful! Except the dont fly the same as each other, nor do they fly like my other Warships. But i still throw it haha
@@dickiebrewer1232 it almost becomes another type of disc but with the same feel.
indeed
Warship does fly a little farther and has less stability than a Truth when I throw it.
400 ft? Get outa here
The cone you see it land in front of is the 400ft cone. Absolutely unbelievable, I know!
"I mostly throw the Innova ROC in DX plastic"........... wait. WTF
