I was wondering if anyone could give me any insight on this disc. I am wondering if the Pinnacle or Icon plastics have different flight characteristics or if the different colors of the discs effect the flight?

It is a good disc, I would say it is a beat in Nuke in terms of flight patterns. It has a deeper rim then most speed 13's which is what I love.

I've thrown 3+ pink ones and they are by far more overstable than the green, white and black I have tried. I've found you can fairly easily "tune" it like an Epic by bending it up to make it more overstable after it beats in. Hit pole on a flat 430' hole with a Pinnacle Cannon this week..definitely go get one.

They have an unusual 'turn' in that when flipped they kind of just float off to the right (rhbh) without being at a sharp angle or ever rolling, even into a wind.

Permalink Reply by Ben Calhoun on August 7, 2012 at 1:43pm Much flippier- possibly can roll into a wind, but no wind, they'll hold a long fade turnover whereas the pink ones (of mine) won't hold the turn but pan out- still finishing right of center usually. It reminds me of my cyclone in that even when flipped they don't seem to want to land on a roller edge.
