    "Let's go spin some discs" . . . "That's not a tagline" hahaha, Dude, I literally laughed out loud, rewound it, and laughed again. I"ll buy it if you put in on a shirt, but it has to be the entire quote.
    I bagged a Harp for about 3 years and then recently went to a Zone. I love that it's still stable, but has some decent glide too. It feels great in the hand as well.

    Really enjoyed watching this video. I like how you went through one specific characteristic (ie grip, stability, etc.) for every disc before moving on to the next characteristic. I’ve been flicking a Discmania P3X and have been considering trying a couple of the discs that you tested. Great timing.

    It's so hard to do disc comparison videos like this, because feel is such a big part of it, and it's so subjective. I like that you threw them all back to back to compare the flights, that was helpful. I like the videos, hope to see you on lead card coverage!

    I personally really love the AviarX3. Most that do get it in star or champion plastic. Unfortunately that is super hard to find these days, though it might be easier with the help of Big Jerm getting his signature X3. The DX plastic makes the mold horrendous.

    The A2 is like the firebird of approach discs. Super great feel, super overstable. Really consistent. Great speed control. It’s not as fast as a mid and not as slow as a putter even like a harp. Digs well. And then you can get it in 300 (base) plastic and it is similar but not as beefy and sticks better. And then they have the pa1 in 400 which is great for the slower overstable putter upshots (I use the pa3 in 400 and it flies the same but feels better to me because I putt with it.) Also, between the zone, harp, and tactic, they are similar but their wing shape is all pretty different. It’s interesting and i’m glad there is variety

  • @caseysmith544
    @caseysmith544 3 роки тому +3

    I use a Star or Pro Shark both ~175 grams for my main approach disc as well as for driving putter and windy day putter, a #2 Upshot in Prostyle from Lighting for the slightly US approach shot, currently from 2005 a 166 gram one only but have a fairly new from 2020 175 gram for the neutral shot slot the Pro Shark currently has. When the Pro Shark ends up US, I will get the max weight #2 Upshot in prostyle a go for my neutral slot, the disc is due to weight and use that next tick more neutral then the older disc due to both weight and use.

    Great vid. Personally I use A2, Justice and Jokeri and on my seriously handicapped forehand Justice has best flutter resistance where even though A2 is more over stable when release and spin are good it may be disappointing at times when throwing headwind with less that premium forehand.
    I would appreciate video with tips on how to throw different angles with forehand and preserve spin on the disc and good release. For me hyzer release is mostly good but flat or anhyzer flutters like crazy which makes discs fall out of the sky and even more so when trying to get some torque to get distance.

    Fantastic video, especially for someone like me when pondering which disc to purchase. I've been thinking about getting a zone and this confirmed that it is the right disc to get. Any opinion on what the best plastic is? I was thinking of getting an esp, beats in grippy and is somewhat middle of the way in terms of stability from what I've seen.

      @EzraAderholdDG  3 роки тому +1

      Thanks, I'm glad it's useful! Zone is great, I have two, both in Z plastic. I haven't really tried esp but I know people like it. Probably can't go wrong with any plastic

    • @lorenbarnhurst
      @lorenbarnhurst 3 роки тому

      For drives, I agree ESP feel best. For upshots, I’d strongly recommend Jawbreaker plastic: grippier and it has less skip around the basket.

    Would love to see a similar video for Overstable drivers! Theyre all so similar (like these slower approach discs) but the feel, torque resistance, and overstability would be great to have reviewed all together like this.

    As someone who throws the same zone you should try a Dynamic Disc Justice if you’re looking for an overstable mid. I have a 750 A2 as well and the Justice is the most fun disc I’ve thrown in a while. The flex lines you can throw with that thing are obscene. I like it too because I can throw it in a lighter weight and still get the overstable finish I want without putting as much strain on my arm (I throw it in 167 and it’s still straight beef).

  • @A.J.K87

    I bag both an aviarx3 and a razor caw tactic. I love the aviarx3 more for backhand. It's too deep for me for forehands, that's why I have the tactic. But for backhand approaches I actually really like the deeper rim. I seem to get a bit cleaner release with the x3 than the tactic when throwing backhand.

    • @EzraAderholdDG
      @EzraAderholdDG  3 роки тому

      Maybe at some point, although there are other pros to look at that I would recommend for a good forehand over myself. Jeremy Koling and Eagle McMahon come to mind. Eagle has a really good video about forehand

  • @fr.andygutierrez5356
    @fr.andygutierrez5356 3 роки тому +1

    Great video, but I’ve noticed that glide is also different between dinner of these discs. Maybe consider comparing that, as well as how they come out of a flex line for upshots. I cycle between a Zone and a Pig now, and I used to throw a Harp, and they do have subtle differences. The Pig also seems to sit better for me on the ground, whereas the Zone gives more skip, but that’s probably due to the plastic

      I bag his zone for straight to fade forehand shots and an A2 for flex shots. There is no better flex forehand disc than a 750 A2 imo. Release it on Anny and it will come back every time. Such a pretty flight from an extremely unique disc.

  • @colemartin7320
    @colemartin7320 3 роки тому +1

    I use the star plastic for the aviar x3. It’s not really something I use for my forehand basically because of the feel of the disc in the hand. However, in my opinion the disc is great for accurate backhands, and it will hold the line and angle you release on with a late overstable finish.
