I was able to pickup a 1991 Innova Aviar disc with the famous chains stamp in Raleigh this weekend. I can't believe it was in the used bin there and was in terrific condition.

my favorite molds are always changing it seems like. However, I have always had a strong affection for a whippet. I love to overhand them and its a great medium to long range option in my bag. I carry 2 star and occasionally carry my old 150 class DX.

What discraft disc would be comparable to a Star Wraith?

Jon , KP would be the one to best answer this but I will take a stab and say the Surge,,,

Thats what I heard, but I think the Surge is a bit flippier. I tried one once but I'm not sure the weight of it. I want something that wont flip but will hold a line nicely like the wraith does. Little fade. Maybe I should just stick with the wraith.

have you tried a star teerex? it is a little more stable than a wraith.

Bosses are nice but I like them to hold a line a little longer than they do. They seem to fade pretty fast. I think I want something that I can't flip over but has very little fade. Never threw a Teerex.

Maybe you should try a Katana. It should flip with slight fade at the end.

Thanks. I think I'm just gonna have to talk to people that own these different discs so I can give them a test throw without having to buy each one. I have an eagle and a teebird that I don't like. I'll have to try some others. I'll let you know which I end up with. I might have to get a katana for my wide open distance shots. I liked the way it flip and did a nice S curve for extra distance.

Jon, I've got a couple starfires you can throw and check out. I also have teebirds and agree with Dan on their flight, one of the best discs in the game.

I'll third Dan's comments on the Teebird/Eagle...

The question is, what about their flight don't you like about them, and what platic do you have them in? I carry between 3 and 5 Teebirds that cover everything in the fairway driver range except the few shots covered by my firebird...

As for faster than the Teebird/Eagle, more stable than the Surge... Orc or Crush are slower, but more reliable than a Wraith... Also, I believe Z Surges are more stable than the ESP... (They definitely are with Avengers... which are really the discraft starfire...)

Surges are fine discs, and I throw the heck out of them. I like them in ESP. They are less stable than a Wraith when new. Some of the Z Surges that I have thrown are very close in stability to a Wraith. Also, as a note, Avengers fill an interesting gap for me as a utility driver. They seem to be more stable than a Star Starfire, but maybe a little less LSS than a Champion Starfire. Very nice discs in ESP and Z. I haven't thrown one, but I seem to see people use Eagle Xs and Starfires for a lot of shots that I throw with an Avenger.
