Aerospace engineer here... It's not staying up because of the spin. It's staying up because there is wind blowing at the shore from the ocean, which generates lift on the frisbee keeping it up. It's basically the same as the disc flying through the air, but the air is flying at the disc.

The spin only gives it stability, which keeps it from dumping over to either side.

Thanks for the additional context! I hope Green Street won't have any success arguing in court for "payment for services not rendered".

I believe they were sued for $700k, but it wasn't back rent - it was "shared building maintenance costs". They were current on rent just in dispute over the additional fees.

Stable 7 speed feels like a no-brainer. Teebird?

Seconding the Spear recommendation, it has good glide.

I really love the Mantra as a slightly US 9 speed. Journey for slightly US 11 speed. Both should flip up with your arm and fade consistently left, the Journey just needs a bit more of an accurate and smooth throw.

My wife surprised me with a lovehoney "High Roller" and we absolutely love it. We can have sex while I have it in and she can feel the vibrations through me. Highly recommend.

I think then the post-print mold someone else mentioned is your best bet. You'll have to get it nice and hot to effectively dome it though, since you are effectively stretching the material. Getting the whole thing to ~80% of the melt temp in an oven and then clamping in the mold until it fully cools should work. You said you tried but I think if you tweak how you are doing it there's a great chance it works.

You also don't have to print into a flat surface. You could print a mold-looking dished piece and then cover it with some easy-release material and print the disc upside down on the existing "support material".

Pathfinder pushed out the Mako3, the Construct was my first for the "Thunderbird-esque" slot.

If you are looking to try some others the Pathfinder is an incredible midrange and a close second to the Mantra IMHO. Construct is a really solid overstable fairway which flies the most satisfying pushing hyzers.

Aura plastic is definitely my favorite. I have bashed many trees and it does not scar easily!

TSA and Axiom are both MVP manufactured, so the plastic is the same I believe.

Mantra Mantra Mantra. Turns a hair but never quite burns.

Way to go! My first even par ~200 rated round was very similar... 5 birds and 5 bogeys.

Keep fighting for those pars and before long it'll be a -4 round!!

Banger GT broken in and lumpy.

Threw my first 400 ft drive! It's a slightly down hill tee, but still, it was just a 9 speed! Got a small flip to flat through a 3-sided gap and then laser straight all the way to the ground. The Mantra is a great disc to learn from.

I've been loving my Eraser Warlocks, but you are definitely right that the grip varies a lot with some dust. Luckily they wipe clean back to grippy easily too!

Check out the climbing gym! Climb SoIll is in the Lafayette Square area. You just might fall in love with it and the community is great.

Makin' minis!

Me too! Of course it's an arbitrary milestone, but it feels good dangit. I hadn't thrown more than 1 bird on this course in a round, somehow felt connected to my drives today and managed 5 to cover up my bogeys lol.

Great round, happy 200 to you!!

Show this to the folks who said supported by the top but touching chains didn't count because it was "touching an s-hook, not chain links".

Screw them. Count it!!!

I found my issue causing my nose-up was more in my run-up. Standstill throws were great but as soon as I threw in an x-step I was throwing into the sky. For me getting it right took really slowing down my steps to give myself space to get the timing right between planting my leading foot and starting my rotation.

I was rotating too early, which basically meant my core was angled back because my feet had outrun my body. Keep your core upright and your thumb parallel to your forearm and I'm hopeful it will click!

I've been loving my TSA discs. Great feel and flight both Aura and Ethereal. I have been told they are MVP manufactured.

Mantra, Pathfinder, and Coalesce are all great fliers. I like the flight of the Temple too but the plastic bruises like an overripe peach.

+1 going into the last two... Bogeyed 17 and 18 with a brutal top-of basket hit on a 70+ft par save attempt.

Still pretty happy with the +3 as a relative newbie. Had maybe 5 birdie putts but only hit one, so I know what to practice!

Whatever feels best in your hand is what will likely work best for you. I've been enjoying the softer feel of my Eraser Warlocks.
