New Latitude 64!

Man, am I the only one out there that has tried there new discs ( Striker, Vision, Riot, and Core) or the new Opto plastic ( Can you say old Innova gummy, well close). Come on Ladies and Gents. You have to give this stuff a try. I know it's a scarry thought that you might have to throw out your Roc ( well multiple Roc's) or Wasp after you try the Core, but it's OK. Change is good. Soooo try it you might, like it ;o)

I have these discs sitting at the Port.
My customs broker is grabbing them soon.
I will list them on the website as soon as they hit the showroom!
Maybe sooner (without pics) since they are here in the US.
Stay tuned or Call Ms. Wendy to secure yours before they even arrive....

Got them suckers today finally. blitz...freakin crazy fast disc, drops like a rock at the end of flight....like a destroyer but less fade i'd say. Striker....freakin fast as hell teebird..and i mean spot on accurate...you can smoke a dragonfly from 300 feet with this thing. Vision....a way sweeter looking beast to me...plastic way better, it drops like a rock as well after spinning, no middle ground with these two discs, (blitz, vision)fly and die. I read where hey were supposed to be very "glidey"...not for me at least. I was field practicing so i didn't test the core and spike but i will during rounds tomorrow. I was practicing in about a 5-15 variable speed 45 degree angle crosswind back and forth so it was tough to see really good flight characteristics. The opto line plastic is Amazing. I usually have a problem with left to right aim, holding too long or slipping out early but not even once with these discs. I'm extremely impressed. I max out at 350 i generally throw a beast about 300-340. I normally throw a beast for annies and hyzer flip it for straight and distance shots. just to give you an idea of my not so great arm. oh yeah, i got all opto line except for spike which is zero line. I got the vision in sparkle plastic and the core in chameleon. These discs look so awesome!! Don’t take my word yet on the glidey thing, just tested a while and I can’t throw a 175 teebird more than 310 feet anyways.

Sweeet, I'm glad you dig them. Now that you mentioned it. I noticed they don't have much glide, but it didn't really matter much to me. I just love the plastic and how "forgiving" the disc is. They seem to handle technique errors well. I can't wait to try the Blitz and Trident. Has anyone tried the Trident yet?

[Tha Big Hamm]

if you are even considering the trident you will be able to make the blitz scream. i wish i could throw those stable discs better. The plastic seems indestructable, i nailed a power line pole with one today and couldn't even see a mark. I can tell we will get along!

[Rescue]

I don't know dude. You should be able too. Heck you throw a good 20 to 30 feet further. I know my max "speed" for Innova discs is 10 or 11, but I know what you mean. Even though the Max and Monster are below that speed. I couldn't throw them to save my life. However, I've bought a couple 150 class discs to work on my technique, but what I've found out. Is that I can throw the snot out of the overstable discs I have. Man, I have a 150 Flick. I throw it flat and that sucker screams. The cool part is that it will fly straight fore the majority of it's flight and then hyzer wicked hard at the end. Before I switched, I could only use it for short spike hyzers. Same thing for my 150 Destroyer, especially with a tailwind. If I throw it right I get about an extra 50 feet out of it

I have tried the trident and it is awesome. I have had a problem with fairway drivers because I turn them over too easily if I forehand or backhand them. To turn the trident over, I really have to mess up my throw. It is a great disc and I would recommend getting it if you like good discs.

[Tha Big Hamm]

Alright. First game with them today, i was late so i didn't get even one warmup shot. I scored very high. 73 and it is my highest on that course. I took everything else out of my bag. The blitz is tough. Throw it too high, you pay, throw it with any hyzer, you pay. It has to be thrown flat and straight. It's so dang fast though, the flight time is about 2/3 that of normal discs so it seems like it didn't go far but when I get there it's just as far as any others. The Stryker...throw it flat and straight and it's spot on, but anything else and you'll pay. It's more stable than a teebird, but again, helllllla fast. the vision is exactly liek a Beast to me, Just a touch faster and less glidey. Can flip it every single time though and it seems to be less affected by wind DURING EARLY FLIGHT, after that if a cross wind catches it it will annie very smoothly for days. I think it's still flying right now i will go get it tomorrow. The Core, this is close to a buzzz but a hair more understable. I didn't have to throw it fay today but when i put a annie on it it held it and i find that a buzz thrown at that same speed will turn out before this one. Zero Line Spike putter....I ain't gonna lie Rescue, that thing whipped my arse. I have been using a super soft magnet since I started this game. I was not ready for this thing. I literally missed puts today from 9 feet on out. Quite a few too, quite a few. I stuck to my promise though, even as competitive as I am, I only used these discs. My Outcome feeling as of today is,...I will keep using the spike as a putter, I will have to throw it harder, I was getting soft with my putting (i only spin putt). I will carry the blitz with me because when I hammer chopped it, it stayed vertical the entire time, great for comming out of harsh tree's and vines. I also thru it backhand once for the heck of it and it just screamed out there, very far very fast. I will keep and use the stryker but i will also keep the teebird next to it when i need it to be realllly strait tunnel. I think I will buy another vision or 2 lighter if I can get any and will replace my beasts with these. I will keep the Core but keep my Kite right next to it because I don't full trust it for high annie midrange shots.
Sorry this was so long, this is my review of these discs after one day of practice for an hour and a half in a baseball field windy and one round with treese without any warmups. As a note, It usually taked me about 20 practice drives before i start throwing the discs flat and low like i need them and by hole 3 i predicted it would get better by hole 16 and that's when i got 2 birds and started playing well.
The plastics do not have a nick or gouge at ALL. got some scuffs on the top from that billions of trees i hit but it's cosmetic. Again the grip is flawless, none held too long, none slipped out. all opto line. The light blue colors are easy to see in sun and during beginning of evening surprisingly. The Chameleon is impossible to find in the trees so keep that color for midrange. Sparkle ones are hard to get used to, with the flakes were smaller and had more of them, they are big and spaced out. The fly Fast, they fall hard, the're indestructable, they look awesome, the grip is unbeleivable. Give me another driver from them less stable than bliutz but more stable then vision but just as mean as both and I will buy that thing today!!!!!

[Rescue]

Cool, I'm glad you dig them. I also took them out today. Didn' throw the Striker much, but I threw the heck out of the Vision. All I can say is WOW. The thing is so controlable. I threw it at all three angles and was very impressed. When I put it on an anny line. It just kept flying with a nice turn and only faded slightly at the end, but it worked the best with a little hyzer angle. It had a slight turn after it came up flat and a mild fade at the end. So far I think this disc had the best glide out of drivers. Also, this plastic is sick! I had a couple tree stikes with no signs of damage and the grip is awesome. I like the Core, but I don't no if I have a place for it? Seems like a tweener right in the middle of my Buzzz and Roc. I like the rim of the Riot. Since it's rounded. I seem to get a nice clean release. I've thrown it with my Teerex just to compare the two and it seems like there neck and neck. Can't wait to try the Blitz!
What really suprised me was how easy they are to spot. I was worried a bit. Since they almost appear clear, But the guy at Marshal Street mentioned that they reflect the light well since they are so shiney. Sure enough, you can see them a mile away, but I haven't tried the Chameleon. I don't think I will either after what you said.
Man, I haven't been this jazzed about a disc before. I need to get a life lol!!!

[GAZY]

I would guess your throwing Champ Beasts (way understable) maybe I'm wrong but I have mostly thrown STAR BEASTS which are not that unsimilar to a STAR SL (slightly less stable in my opinion). Anyway if you want a true stable disk try a new red or black star beast (I am currently throwing a black one and can bomb it about 350 - 375 on nearly a frozen rope).

[Tha Big Hamm]

yes they are champs. Never tossed a star one. So the star beast is more stable than a champ?

[Henrik Westerlund]

I've had two Core's and I think they tend to be a little overs table at first, going on to being under stable after a few tree hits and now my Cores are totally unpredictable. I some times get good shots out of them but I can' rely on them any more... They get flippy after only a couple of weeks (playing them at least a few times a week). The Riot is one of my favorite discs, never tried the Striker but my brother throws it frequently and he loves it. I have an XXX but it really needs heavy winds to operate correctly. I want to try the Blitz but I have spent too much money on discs these past months so I can't bring myself to buy anymore...

[Tha Big Hamm]

Did you get any of the Vision?
