Choosing the Right Disc for Your Disc Dog

We gathered all the disc types we had on hand and reviewed them - their size, plastic type, durability, flight characteristics and suggested uses. Hero Disc USA comes out on top for me... watch til the end to see my top 3 disc choices in my bag!

hi, very nice video, I have a question though: are hyperflite competition standard good for freestyle other than distance? thank you in advance! Francesco

[@DragonDogs]

Yes I use them for freestyle at Skyhoundz events when it's not windy.

@@DragonDogs Thanks a lot!!

[@addestramentopositivofrancesco]

may I ask one more thing? in terms of durability would you compare a "comp standard" to a "Hero air" or an "extra" or neither of those? I'm sorry to bother you but here in Italy there are not so many discs to choose from therefore I'm gathering infos cause I'm about to place an order from the US. Thank you again

@@addestramentopositivofrancesco I would say the CS comparable to the Xtra in durability.

Hello (thanks for this video) 😊 what you think about fastback wham-o?

[@DragonDogs]

Fastbacks are the original disc for dogs! They fly and handle freestyle tricks well with their deep rim but they are not durable enough for my dogs strong bite. So for our dogs, we prefer more durable, Hero discs.

@@DragonDogs sorry another question.. in the hero or hyperflite line what is the more similar to fastback in your opinion? Because I love the fastback, I love the way they fly, I love to throw this disc they makes me confident 😎🤣 but like you said they are not so much durable so I have to change

[@DragonDogs]

@@zenzapunk Hyperflite and CS have a different disc mold called K10. It is a different size and shape. Hero uses a similar mold to fastback so they will be most similar to Hero discs. The main difference, aside from better durability and grip, is the rim on the hero is not as deep as the rim on the fastback for trick throws. It's more flat where the fastback has a bit of a curve to hold your finger. CS has more of a curve inside on rim but the rest of the disc is totally different.
