IS THAT GOOD?! Jeremy Koling Boss

We had Big Jerm on for the Thunderbird, but what if you want something a little faster, and more stable BUT understable at the same time? WHAT?!
Guess you'll have to watch and find out!

Would love a late year in the bag so we can see how things changed from the start of the year to now. And what's good enough to make the bag...

Definitely down to do that! I’ll do a seasons end ITB for sure.

And I love your run up😂😂☠️ it's like you do a lil cha cha on the way to throw the disc😂😂🤌

[@MaxLBogue]

The unique thing about the Innova design for distance drivers is that instead of following an even dome or smoothing out at the edge like most brands, discs like the Boss, Destroyer and Wraith have a downward curve towards the edge of the rim that I believe changes the properties of the lifting surface. Given that the rear airflow brings a lot of lift to the disc, having a more downward curve at the edge is going to let the disc generate more lift while displacing the same amount of air. For pros who can push through the extra drag this effect creates, the distance gains can be quite evident. I do think that the effect of DDs dropping on big flex lines has more to do with discs stalling out or being too new to have enough glide to push through that flight, because all my super-beat rippers across multiple brands have the same lifting effect when they flatten out of a flex.

[@kelo8685]

Every person 13 speed lmao

[@justwondering1926]

And if you look at the rim width, it should really be a 15 speed

[@lovemesomegstar9682]

I found a beat-up Boss last year and it's STILL a meathook for me. Then again, I haven't ever found a Destroyer that I like, either.

To them, all this “versatility” means over stable to us. Lol. But play with it long enough it’ll be usable hopefully.

[@darkfafnir4389]

I started playing again, always had a few discs but my back had stopped me from playing before... probably stopped a little after the destroyer first came out. But feel things have changed a lot but def need a wraith Boss and a destroyer in my bag again

just wondering how long has a Big Jerm also had a boss as well with his name on it?

if i am not mistaken I have a boss but it is a 12 speed. But it is an older disc

it almost inspires a new disc rating for ground energy, boss is amazing but you do need to play for the livelier action on the ground

[@darkfafnir4389]

Your arm speed and step up approach really matters when trying to get to your max distance. Has a lot to do with the transfer of energy from your back foot to the hips and up

[@Chriscarpenter2]

Love wide rim discs. Not a fan of the dome but the dome on this disc looks like a chopped off pyramid. Be cool to see how it flys compared to the discmaina Majesty.

[@ssicari]

Welp I’ll be buying one… or 5 Halo Bosses. Not sure if you take requests, but I’d love to see Drew Gibson sell you on the Finish Line Era. My personal favorite disc this year that’s flown under the radar for a lot of players.

[@ronjones-6977]

I got 3 of the original run. My fave ended up being the 163 gm Era. I can mash that thing on a hyzer-flip and it just goes straight forever.

I mean I get it, your out here trying to hustle your discs so you can get paid, and I'm not mad because that's how your puting food on the tagble and gas in the tank. However.... I can easily see that no one should bother with this one unless you can throw 450ft.

[@TheGuccibane]

I like the champion boss (the one with 0 turn) a lot. Almost mandatory to throw it in an annie. Thing will turn over even in the highest of winds. First time I got the Champ boss I couldn't throw it for crap (I'm only a year into the sport). But learning to throw it annie bh and hyzer sidearm has really helped me get the intended shot with this disc almost every time.

[@jasonegger3550]

That thing you do

[@meister-t]

with the kind of gail-force tailwinds you guys are throwing with for these bogus distance records, you can probably get those distances with a hankerchief, or a paper-plate. it's not something that would make me want to spend $20 on a plastic plate.

[@JTygerAU]

[@dalereinhold640]

It’s a great forehand disc for me. Handles the torque nicely with a consistent,dependable finish. Backhand, not so great for me. I don’t have the arm speed needed on my BH to keep it from dumping after about 300’

[@aklevin]

I really enjoyed the Fierce and Captain's Raptor episodes, but this one wasn't convincing at all, even though I like Jerm. Felt too obviously like a commercial. The camera didn't quite catch the disc enough, either.

[@eastbaysteez21]

I got mine. It replaced my rive. Way easier to put anny on it and when you turn it to much it corrects and skips forever if you put a good throw on it. I threw it 100 feet shanked it got flat before it hit the ground and skipped 200 ft no joke. People afraid of it will be surprised. Can’t wait to dial it in.

[@brian6speed]

I put a Halo Boss in the bag to try FH and parked a 388 ft hole by basing the pole 1st round with it. These aren't as stable as the champion Feldberg boss's I use to bag. For most ppl it will be similar to destroyer distance wise, but gets more left to right movement and more ground play. The Boss is just better than the Nuke.

[@deepsender]

Jeremy, if it's an every person disc, then it must surely come in some lighter weights, such as 150 class.
