so which disc skips best on water ?

my friend peter parked a great shot across wailoa river , on the way his disc skiped twice on the water then parked about 2 feet from hole # 10 . are there any special disc molds for this kind of action ?

.....anything that skips great on land. DuH! j/k ; )

Not a shot I practice very often, for obvious reasons. If you know the answer to this question, you probably need to find a different place to play!

All that said, I bet the roadrunner does well because of the convex underside of the rim. This is the next innovation now that we've gotten to the max rim thickness allowable.

Anything but a Shark! SRLSY Wailoa is a Shark magnet. I must have 10 at the bottom.

Use a Phenix (they float) or R-pro under 150 (also floats).

that's because sharks like water, duh...

At first I thought you said "Peter Parker"


The best disc would be one thrown upside down on it's flight plate.

I read the same thing, "Peter Parker", damn super heroes using their webs to make discs skip... anyone know the PDGA rulling on this?

The hand full of discs I have skipped off the poopy lagoon waters of Riverside Park where all very fast over stable drivers (Boss, Destroyer, and the Wraith), but I think it has a lot more to do with the speed and angle of which these discs were thrown more than the choice of plastic.

[ROBEY the one.]

not the one i threw last night.

Unfortunately I have expirence with this subject.In sarasota at the temp.course I skipped up for the par with a star boss.My second shot looked 10-15 short of land,but skipped on the pond right up to the pin(30ft from the edge)

[Brandon Swanson]

So are you saying that you skipped on the water twice on that hole, or was it just the second shot.

[david k. reisner]

one throw it skiped in the middle and then again 6' from shore to onshore about 10' on land . it was a beautiful thing to watch .
