What about having some notes on the discs before you make the video? That way you know the numbers and have some more info on each disc.

[@atpete07]

It’s genuinely comical at this point to watch how much Luke actively avoids saying nice things about Innova🤣

[@luchaunderground6830]

I didn't see the Strive or the Brave from Latitude or others from Dynamics. I clicked off the vid immediately after the comment.

[@paulking0512]

Agreed

[@paulking0512]

Agreed

[@JaredTG.]

Congratulations, you are a superior human. Everyone should bend to your will.

[@itsThan_]

There’s like 8 more molds that deserve to be on the list that aren’t even here…

[@JacobWarwick]

Sounds like you could be more specific :-) - and I bet they’ll make another list for us

[@itsThan_]

@@JacobWarwick Sure; here’s some very notable ones that didn’t appear: Innova Racer, Innova Gorgon, Discraft Drive, Gateway Ether, Gateway Realm, Westside Prince, Axiom Timelapse, MVP Trail, L64 Strive, Lone Star Growler, Finish Line Daytona, Finish Line Interval, Sacred Discs Starship, Innova Juggernaut Best part? None of these go before 2023

[@McSlobo]

Many of what you listed are so new they're not yet readily available in most stores and some are in prototype phase. Reviewing such product is waste of time for viewers, they can't buy it, and how could one review something that has not been tested properly? So, while it's cool there's more new discs coming I would limit my ranking to only those which are now commonly available in most shops.

[@curtisridenour]

I have seen many or bagged of the discs on his list. I have been really loving the PP Drive. It has a very tight straight flight with little left to right. Still traveling over 400.

[@jasonedens3778]

Jet is 11,5,-3,2 and that baby gets some super easy distance.

[@cosmolean]

Try a 148g Innova Charger. I've got a 'throw a Wraith 300ft' arm but my local Innova pro talked me into trying a light Charger. It is super fun to throw and I can get a S turn out of it. It goes in my bag if playing wide open courses. Another enjoyable disc ranking video.

[@JaredTG.]

I've got that same arm. Maybe 325-330 if I'm giving myself credit. I'll keep that in mind. Distance drivers are crowded in my bag right now, just bought 3 Gorgons. I'll add it to the never ending list of discs to try though.

[@cosmolean]

@JaredTG. It's a serious illness, my three new Gorgons just arrived from the Innova factory store today. One in each plastic.

[@HonduDan]

​@@cosmoleanGuys, lightweight Champ Tern will add distance, I promise. I'm talking, 164ish. Once you develop your arm, lightweight Shryke. Two amazing discs not talked about too often. The Gorgon is exceptional, by the by.

[@JoeBrookhouse]

Lone Star doesn't make Hooligan discs anymore. Gateway manufactures them now. Also, the Hooligan Thread was the same mold as the Lone Star Lariat.

[@paulhill4232]

Venom #1 Time-Lapse #2

[@Monoker.]

I love the Jet. I bag 2! A proton one which is way more stable (it's like an entirely different disc) and the neutron one for tailwind bombs. The neutron one with a hair of hyzer is my distance record holder. Bang for the buck, an incredible disc.

[@jasonedens3778]

They are so good!

[@brandonstevens1832]

Can you rank drivers that you're able to hyzer flip, please? This list is hilarious.

[@marceltress1911]

I agree that some of Yikun's old stuff is hit or miss but they have been coming out with some great stuff. Check out The She Gong and Fu Xi. Great straight to under stable Distance Drivers that were approved 2023.

[@JaredTG.]

All of the active line discs ive felt have felt like really good plastic. Not what id call top of the line but for cheap discs its better than any other baseline plastic ive had. The molds themselves are whatever. The mentor i got was way more stable than it said and the astronaut was as flippy as an old beat up DX sidewinder.

[@peanutbutterjelly.7]

I have a first run rask and I love it

[@kevinlegg2556]

Scorch First Run was super money. Also the TS 2022 was awesome but the stock Z sucked.

[@AprilJeremyF]

For Lone Star/Hooligan - The yeet is the warbird, the vibe is the curl, and the thread is the lariat.

[@Iliyena87]

And none of them are done by LS for Hooligan anymore right? Don't remember whom they started to work with after they split, they have reapproved something as well... Didn't Hooligan also do the Flip? Would love to try that midrange!

[@AprilJeremyF]

@@Iliyena87 correct they no longer have an affiliation with lone star, the new vibe has been reworked and the plastics are gateway. The flip was a hooligan original through lone star, so it could come back without re-approval I believe, as well as the cash (which might already be back, I didn't remember in know they have the dime now).

[@JaredTG.]

Where are you finding understable Destroyers? Not saying you're lying i just want to know so i can buy it in the future. Unless you're talking about a lightweight beat up DX Destroyer, of course those can flip.

[@eoghana315]

IME a really domey Curl is a bomber, like a good Star Wraith. The flatter ones are flippy like pro Wraiths.

[@HonduDan]

Shhhhhhhh don't mention anything Innova to these two.

[@Babl069]

Most likely you had a Core Honey. They are not even the same disc anymore. Most of the Honeys before rebranding to wild honey were more stable then what Hades usually is. The blue proto Honeys go for a lot right now because they were the most stable versions of the Honey. Easy distance but definitely not unreliable. I had about 400 feet back then but that thing would not hyzerflip. Thrown flat they had a little drift for me to the right but always came back. Been too scared to try a wild honey cause from what I've heard they are more Hades like and that's not what I'm looking for.

[@buckgillispie605]

Quick question: what mold was in the weird flex 2023 player pack?

[@rainmakes]

My Yeet has the same "wb" stamp as my warbirds. I'm not a fan of alpha and definitely prefer Bravo or glow plastic. Also like the DD for sure. It's got some understability but for me the one I have does have some fairly reliable fade at the end.

[@Munchylego]

You should try out the new CNC driver. I got the CNC-, and it is nice!

[@Allanfan20]

I heard the newer Fission Time Lapse is pretty fabulous.

[@kristopherhoce1067]

Any reason the newer distance drivers were omitted? Discraft Drive? Innova Gorgon? Also agree with the Time Lapse being included.

[@anderschristianhaldpederse8472]

How'bout the Time Lapse (Neutron and Fission are 2 different molds :-P )

[@kylmisxkylmis]

I love scorch lol 😅

[@akkadian1995]

PD2 > Venum

[@RyJitsoup]

Find a Z Lite Venom & try to throw it. Thank me later.

[@jaredselby9952]

The discmania TD and the Innova made TD are nothing alike. Flights are different (discmania made is more like a 0,2 turn and fade). The wings are also completely different. The innova made TD is convex while the discmania made is concave. The new innova Gorgon is the exact same mold as the innova made TD. Compare them and see for yourselves.

[@teranhutchens8672]

Founders curl is what you need....

[@justinsimpson9892]

I bought 3 scorches. Terrible. Definitely not understable as Reid says. They fly like 11 4 0 2. Gave them all away for better stuff.

[@Iliyena87]

Thats how mine fly thrown less than 250', but my Z Scorch flip up and glide a long way thrown farther... not stable enough for headwinds imo. What plastics/weights? =)

[@justinsimpson9892]

@Iliyena87 all 3 esp max weight. I throw about 350 max. Not even a slight flip if thrown flat. Just way better discs out there.

[@Iliyena87]

@@justinsimpson9892 Expected ESP to be flippy! Wowsa, might have to get some, loving the feel of a microbeaded convex rim! =)

[@eoghana315]

Got an ESP at a tourney, flies like a beefy Wraith. Glad I'm not the only one lol.

[@tonystreehouse7269]

Where's the grace?

[@wacky295]

gorgon ?

[@spencerglinski4061]

Gateway has some good distance drivers that came out recently. Anti Gateway channel?

[@CarlosMartinez-vk9su]

I got a glow astronaut 🤌🏼🤌🏼

[@hkopli]

So Trilogy has not produced any distance drivers since 2021? 🫣
