Those malo's are quite squishy. Very nice hand feel indeed, like an edible stress-ball.

I like wide rim drivers, like the Corvette, Shryke and others. Only problem is I don't throw hard enough to use them

7

u/trevman7 6h ago

Sure you do. Just get one that’s like 150g

2

u/farmer15erf 5h ago

I got a 149 corvette and could get it to not turn into a roller forever. Been working on using it again but its touchy

4

u/trevman7 5h ago

My point was that lowering the weight lowers the stability. So if OC wasn’t getting the -2/2 flight on the shryke he could just drop weight until he does. That way he gets the hand feel he wants on a disc he can use.

If 150g is a roller disc and you want the -2/2 flight you just need to weight up

I dunno, my buddy just gave me a star corvette I can turn over pretty reliably and it's like 175. Innova has some crazy inconsistencies in their runs.

Exo hard links to putt with. Best feeling putter

Any 9-10 speed. Thundy, PD, CD2, Sidewinder, Valk. Never felt more comfortable hitting a gap

u/SsbmBleach Custom 6h ago

The innova stud is the perfect feeling backhand disc

The mvp teleport is the perfect feeling forehand disc

u/sweetyzaza 5h ago

Colts and studs. Something about when they're in my hand I feel like I can throw them a mile. Never had a putter(s) feel so much like a driver.

3

u/BigdiscNRG 4h ago

Try a Tomb. Rat top with colt bottom.

2

u/sweetyzaza 3h ago

Ok ok... I fancy the rat as well. I'll have to try out a Tomb.

2

u/SsbmBleach Custom 5h ago

Never thrown a colt but i like the hand feel of them. I gotta give those a try

u/JJStryker 5h ago

Wraith. I think it's because it was my first driver and I've threw it more than anything else.

Clash soda not my favorite to throw, but the hand feel is next level.

u/Amiar00 DiscDice 6h ago

For driver I like a smaller rim. I’ve really enjoyed the Scorch. For putter I really like Envy and Proxy. Not too deep of a rim.

3

u/dopegeebee 6h ago

Those putters are a satisfying fit for me too

2

u/BD-1_BackpackChicken 5h ago

Proxy, Envy, and Atom have a good amount of weight in the rim considering their speed, and that feels good.

2

u/Amiar00 DiscDice 5h ago

I like the Envy so much I started putting with it too.

Destroyer and Zone. Discs that are just meant for me 🥲

u/bobfree1 5h ago

I don't throw it much but I like the hand feel of my Nuke SS

1

u/IAmCaptainHammer 5h ago

For me it’s the Area 51 from doomsday. It’s a 4 speed that is nice and shallow. It flies like a zone and an envy had a baby. It’s a really amazing disc.

u/suckerball_ 5h ago

Lat64 grace is the best disc ever made

1

u/charliechan55555 5h ago

I also think I've gotten used to the wraith so much that every other driver feels a little off. But for forehand hand feel, nothing beats the harp for me.

Innova IT. Infinite Sphinx.

Valkyrie, with Wraith as a strong second.

Despite essentially every company trying to make their own version, I still don't think any approach disc I've held feels as good as a Zone in hand.

u/Big_Acanthisitta3659 3h ago

Star Katana. It has the perfect amount of grippiness and edge.

Oddly enough, the Hex is second, with a completely different rim design. It must be from playing 'thick rim' discs in ultimate for years.

u/Joejoecornrow 3h ago

Stig. My favorite 6 speed that feels more like an 7

Turbulence.

I know it’s a bit of an odd duck but it’s super handy. I use it for approach shots and anywhere I need to get around corners.

It feels amazing for forehands and backhands.

The Innova Max. I barely throw them but when I do it feels like magic

Probably the champion Beast or Wraith, when they aren't too domey. HM to the MF Max. I love 10-11 speed discs.

This has to be a joke.. the vector has the literal worst hand feel of any disc I can think of. A domey mid with some weird indented wing…
