    I got a ledge stone cicada after I lost my Z one and it’s amazing! Great plastic and feel in the hand and it’s a dead straight bomber for me. So good for hitting gaps and won’t turn and burn Definitely A or S tier!

    That Captions Raptor B tier placement is 🧢🧢🧢 it deserves A tier if not S tier. It's reliable and consistently very overstable no matter what plastic you get it in here are the firebird depending on what type of plastic you get you get different overstability so I have to disagree with that Captions Raptor placement.

    I usually see the vision on these tier lists, but some serious shade is being thrown at like all of the staple new fairway molds. Athena in B, Passion in A, and cap rap in B should all move up one tier

    Innova IT was basically supposed to be a Leopard4.
    Rated 76-21 was originally designed as an 85-21 (re: 18mm rim) but turned out to be too flippy for 8s, and recategorizing it as 76-21 makes it look better on paper.

    You guys do no research before your videos? Missing many discsflight numbers.

    If the Feedback being made overseas bothers you, just know that Cale Leiviska stated the Falcor mold has made it's way stateside. So it wouldn't be outlandish to think the Feedback could follow.

    I think what might make these videos better is talking about each disc beforehand and placing them as an average of your three individual rankings. Just seems kind of randomly biased based on one person’s experience and not a fair tier list.

  • @ryansuter4424

    The Bear/Stag combo is so good! Once I was bagging a couple of Bears, it wasn't too long before Stags pushed the Craves out of my bag. The Ice Orbit Bears are great, but I love the Tournament Orbit ones; very pretty and beat in to money.

    @JaredTG. 3 місяці тому

    Maybe its just the courses in my area or maybe im just bad but ive never really felt a need for the super crazy overstable discs like the firebird or cap rap. To me those are for the people who throw hard enough to burn over thunderbirds and discs similar to that. Which definitely is not me. There could also be a difference since im left handed, there's not a whole ton of holes that go insanely to the right. Like they exist but arent common or standard.

    • @brandonstevens1832
      @brandonstevens1832 2 місяці тому

      Sometimes you have lines where you need to throw a flex FH or flex BH and need to have your disc fight out at a certain distance to proceed toward the pin. Sometimes you need a very overstable air or skip shot around a dogleg left/right.
      If you don't have a ton of wooded or diverse holes in your area, you probably don't need them.

    • @brandonstevens1832
      @brandonstevens1832 2 місяці тому

      Depends on your spin rate as well. A local guy throws it on flat at 57mph at 800 rpm and burns it over. I can throw it about 60-65 at 1300rpm and it's very stable and holds the line on hyzer release. Anymore speed and it starts to burn over. That being said, the guy throws it around 300ft of power and it burns. I throw it and it can reach about 400ft before it starts to require a higher launch angle or significantly more nose-up or else it burns.

    Lat64 Explorer is a 7 5 0 2 that has a true flight number....unless you throw forehand. It turns and fades more understable than the numbers. Maybe that's on me though. Lol!

    I got so scared right off the bat, but BIG HUNT nailed it. Everyone should try out a Jackalope in each plastic. It fills every slot from and Eagle to a Teebird. Grab a MINT on the way out.

    @DavidCornelius 4 місяці тому

    I've heard hand feel complaints for the Passion so many times in videos, but when I picked one up in my local store, it felt amazing! So far, it seems like a longer crave, a bit less stable than my Hokom Crave. My Star Valkyrie goes farther but has more low speed fade.

    Internet, help me out! I'm looking for a stable to ever so slight understabel fairway for me. For me Cicada, Passion, s-line fds, are all to understable. Best one I found so far is a lucid MF Escape and would want one more tic stabel. I throw escape to 380ish on open field. 360 on cobtrolled line. Thanks!

      Glo Passions (if you can get your hands on one of the blurple ones) are money for that slot. I love Passions just because of the huge amount of plastic options thru Ledgestone and Resistance. I also really like Votum in that slot, in Aura plastic beats into a hyzerflip machine or in Glow plastic stays pretty stable. For a classic option, colour glow Teebird3 is a great choice.
