I know right....

I constantly noticed an increase of distance over the past several months...technique gets better and better understanding of disc flight helps tons. Accuracy is king tho.

Again check this link out man, if you are throwing 523 consistently then go to worlds and do it! Easy to say you throw five hundred, hard to prove it that is why she has a hard time believing people

800 centimeters? lol
Finally hit 550' last week (wraith). 450' is fairly east and consistent to hit.
Valks to about 420, Groove to about 450. Crush and Boss to about 400. I'm still learning though, so experiences may vary.
I have recently been able to run my Pulse around 350 finally, but at the Max D I start to lose accuacy, 300 is more consitantly accurate for me right now. I would love to be hitting the 400 mark by years end.
Practice makes Perfect.
I witnessed the 550', sick
im lucky to hit 275' with any disc
not far enough!!
Champ and Star Valk's at 171 get me 350' to 400' consistently without a power grip.
420ish, see what you can do with a Valk, just see...
Heh...throwing FAR is good...but throwing ACCURATE is even better! ;-)

But as far as "throwing far" (or trying to) is concerned, I've recently seen about a 30-50 foot jump in distance. Still only at around 330-340 feet, but I'll gladly take it. Throwing in the 270s-280s off the tee was getting me worked over in a lot of the bigger tournaments.

Star Wraith, Star Destroyer and Avenger SS for me. All 172-174g. Backhand with power grip. The Wraith is the most precise (know where it's going to land off the tee most of the time), while the Destroyer and Avenger SS are a little more fussy for me but can get me an extra 10-25 feet of distance. A slight anhyzer line off the tee with my Avenger SS generates my longest throws when I can properly hit my release point. However, I generally stick to the Wraith in leagues and tourneys since I know what I'll get pretty much every time.
