I still don't get how you guy's call the Flash flippy, I have lots of them, it's my primary and none have been flippy, I can put it on any line. Maybe it's how you release it, the Flash has a flat top, so just like the Buzzz, it will stay on the line that you put it on, as compared to a domed overstable disc, which because of the dome, it will flip, but will come back more at the end compared to a flat top, which will stay flipped as long as it has decent velocity.

Not if you throw it right, I've had a 171 flash for 7 - 8 months now and it is still stable - When I throw it stable. Flash's are not flippy, they are just touchy.

I finally gave up on the flash, the first runs were great in orange, long and straight, then I got a run of green ones not first runs that were beef, almost like a tee-bird or eagle, then I got the Glass blown open stamped ones the first year, they were flip machines, then the last years GBO and they were pigs again, so I had to quit the flash, I think there is something about the mold that lends itself to being a little unpredictable based on the mix of plastic from time to time.

I have about 12 of them, a variety of colors and from different times through out the last year, and all fly the same, but I can bomb the shite out of the Spectra too though, :twisted:

By the way, thanx for that orange Flash 8)

Almost any disc is up to a point, but no, I don't, Q has told me he can't throw them/doesn't like them, and I was commenting on that.

Now that it's calm and cool in the mornings, the (Z)Tracker is back in the bag. This disc is smooth.

Put two of these in the bag after KC. I can honestly say they aren't going anywhere. What a reliable disc with a very slight but predictable hyzer-fade at the end.
I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.

I have been throwing rollers with the 2 Z trackers I have in the bag. They seem to be working as good, if not better then the Crush. I have to put a little turn on them, and they are hauling butt when they hit the ground.

I also have been messing with the X Tracker this week. I want to get a disc that will fly straight for 200-250 feet, then take off right, and not try to come back left at all. I can do this shot with the Buzzz, but I am throwing it very hard. I want a disc that I can throw smooth and under control and get this shot to work.

Try an X XS. Can't beat it for distance turnovers.

Might be to flippy for what I want. I want the disc to go straight, then turn over and glide. I think the XS would flip, dig into the ground, and roll.
