I'm looking for a Piranha!!!

My boyfriend lost my 1993 Innova DX Piranha yesterday ... it was my favorite disc!!! I'm not sure what weight it was because the number was worn off but I would have to guess it was anywhere between a 170 to 175. I don't have any other really rare discs or all that many discs for that matter, but I'm willing to buy one if you have it, I don't care what color, as long as it's not a 150 class and not too beat up. Well used is fine. Please let me know if you have one you're willing to part with! Got one hanging on the wall? Stuffed in a box in the garage? Please, I'll buy it off you for however much you want, I really want this disc back! I suck without it and I don't like the Birdie, it's too unstable, Piranha is overstable. Please contact me!

Thanks guys!

Here are a couple of links for you, Discnation and Disc Golf Store still have a few of the Piranha's left in DX but they are all 150 class. The next closest thing to a piranha is the Birdie, it just has a larger thumb track around the outside, the Pro Birdie would in my opinion would be the better choice since you can only get the piranha in 150 class and they are so hard to replace.

I think I'm gonna try either the Rhyno or give the Birdie another try, if I can find a heavy one. That or buy a Pirahna from Final9 for $60.00! I did beat his booty, he's buying me a new disc this Sunday, I should make him buy me the $60.00 one! Lol ...

i too, have been looking for a pir. i have one that is well used and probably not overstable. I don't know the differance between well used and a beat up disc, this orange pir. has nicks and a gouge but is 173 weight that i can tell on the back of the disc. i would part with it though.

Well it's around like the weight I'm looking for ... I'll never know if I'll like it unless I try it, how much do you want for it? Do you have a picture of it?
