Discraft 175 gram Ultra Star Sport Disc

This plate was a fill-in for an old and tired yellow frisbee that bit the dust one sorrowful afternoon. See, our frisbees dont play frisbee. Oh, no. Frisbee is for the weak. The unintiatied. Real frisbees play Frennis, the great and terrible sport of worth-provingness. If you are unfamiliar with Frennis, its probably because youve never met a frisbee thats lived to tell about it. Well, friends, let me introduce you to the Discraft 175 gram Ultra Star Sport Disc, Bright Orange. This wicked contender was first brought into the Frennis arena three months ago. Oh, you should have seen it. It was beautiful, sailing valiantly over the net, reflecting blinding sunlight back at the Frennis masters. It was so bright that sometimes it would not be caught, crashing violently onto the hard court. But it never faultered. It never wavered. It sailed sure and strong, every time. As time went on, it grew more daring, sometimes even hooking to a ninety degree angle and diving as fast as it could toward the clay. It landed with a crash, the sound of plastic striking stone, so many times. So many times. Its a wonder it lives to play on. And the accuracy! Never has there been a disc that flies so true! It should be noted here that it is usual for plates that choose to engage in Frennisly activities to last about a month. That this plate has lasted three months (and, by the look of it, should keep on much longer) is itself impressive. But to look at it! Sure, the plastic is nicked and worn. Sure, you can tell its been up to no good. But the wear does not betray the heights from which it has fallen, the landings, brutal and at uncomfortable angles. If this champion of sport can survive three months of Frennis, surely it can endure the simple pains of frisbee and Ultimate. But to commit it as such is criminal. Think first of the pride of your frisbee before purchasing. This plate is worthy only of Frennis. - - - - - - - - - Edit 6/3/2015: This frisbee (or, for our case, Frennis plate) has taken a great deal of abuse over the past year. Were talking falls from ~100ft onto asphalt and concrete. Its still in one piece and still flies true. Our last frisbee shattered to pieces after just a few such falls. It lasted about two months. This frisbee is a real winner.

Im chicken when it comes to sports with projectiles. The only thing Im okay with is golf because the balls never coming at me. I had never really thrown frisbees but my bf loves Ultimate, so we bought this ahead of our upcoming beach trip. We started throwing in the pool, and it was really fun! I hit my finger a few times on the edge but it didnt hurt much, so Im not as scared going after it. The only thing I would say though is that it still gets affected by the wind - even light wind. So if youre a bit gutsier than me, you might want to get a heavier disc. For beginners or children (or chicken adults), however, this is great.

I dont have the frisbee with me so I had to screenshot a video, but I have been using this frisbee in all my ultimate frisbee teams and it is one of the best ones out there. It has a perfect weight and weight distribution and the thickness of the grip is perfect for throwing backhand and forehand. As long as you know how to throw it will fly great. Frisbee will inevitably get scratches, a lot of them, but this frisbee has last for me personally more than a year. I have accidentally stepped on it and it had a dent but it still flew well. I played for a countrys national team and they used this disc too so this company is well known.

I usually don’t write reviews but just had to this time. My 14 year old son and I enjoy going to the front yard and throwing discs. Recently we went to Walmart and bought a cheapie. Well…! That disc went everywhere except where we wanted it too. My son found this one, so I ordered it. WOW WHAT A DIFFERENCE! We were able to throw and catch this one over 300 times without a miss. Thank you for helping me spend quality fun time with my son!!!!

Came little bit crooked but fly well

Perfect balance. What a good purchase!!!

Early on in my frisbee days, I was taught that Discraft was the ONLY frisbee to buy. This has stood true as I have yet to get my hands on an ultimate disc that is as good as a Discraft disc. I absolutely love my frisbee and the color is beautiful.
