Apparent glide is also affected by how fast a disc wants to fade from its cruise speed. This disc would want to fade a little faster than a Valk, but not as fast as a FireB.
I am not Dave, but I have been comparing the side by side recently, the Viking and Valk looks pretty similar, the underside of the wing is both concave. The Valk X underside looks less concave, almost straight. So Valk top with a FB bottom?
