Dave,

Many thanks to you and your son for the Blizzard line! I have been throwing lighter plastic for several years (mostly Sidewinders, Valks, Beasts and Orcs in the 150's), and have always wished for 150g or less models of the wide-winged drivers. R-Pro helped a little, but these new Blizzard Champion discs bomb, and they're somewhat durable.

I've mostly been throwing Katanas. 150 Katanas hyper-flip up to flat for me and carry a mile. Once they're beat in, they become great turnover drivers. Right now I'm learning how to control a 130g Katana. A near-vertical hyzer release downwind and it carries a long way.

I've found most other models at 150g to be too over-stable for my arm speed. Bit by bit I'll try some lighter ones as budget allows.

These discs have leveled the playing field a bit for me (especially at Goat Hill). Great work!!!
