I'm going to try to remember to post here when we hear from Jeff Homburg about new discs passing the specification testing. Here's the latest:

Can you confirm or deny rumors of an Innova T-Rex that is sort of what would happen if a Wraith and a Monster had offspring? :D

It is called a Flick and has been out for awhile now. :D

I saw the Surge this weekend, felt like a Wraith but in their x plastic
It looks like Discraft now has a solid distance disc

It is called a Flick and has been out for awhile now. :D



perhaps you misheard me. i said a Wraith and a Monster. A Flick falls about 200 feet short of this disc :D

Hi Terry, any data on the new Innova Goblin and T-Rex?

This putter has spikes that grab the chains like no other approved putter. Also be on the look out for the Brachiosaurus, which will be another disc for long arms.

that seems like a pretty thick rim for a putter, must either be a hoax or made by some other manufacturer ... ;)

Just another Innova Hater. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Probably trying to get picked up by discraft or something.

Can't go on hating. Disc golf will have no place for you then.

Can you confirm or deny rumors of an Innova T-Rex that is sort of what would happen if a Wraith and a Monster had offspring? :D



I would say more like a T-Bird/Wraith........ :D

I have 1 in Star Plastic :eek:
:D

I want LOTS MORE............

SWEET...Now I can put mine in the bag.. :D

I was recently given the oppurtunity to throw both the T-Rex and the Goblin. The T-Rex flew very similar to how a monster felt when I first tried to throw it; very overstable and long. Just like other high speed drivers, I would not recomend it if you don't have the arm to throw it as hard as it needs to be thrown to ensure its entended flight. I was told by the person who let me throw it that it was a mix beetween a T-Bird and a Wraith. The Goblin was an interesting multipupose disc that had great floating potential and I don't mean in the water. I stood about 25 yds apart from another guy and with a strong cross wind tossed it back and forth like it was nothing. Predictable straight up and straight down floating flight paths made this disc look very desirable. If any of you can remember there used to be a disc called a "Hammer/Hammerhead" the Goblin seems to be a mix of that and a Panther, maybe a Bulldog. Just my opinion. I will be purchasing one as soon as they come out.

I remember the Hammerhead, and have been looking for a disc like that for quite some time.

I was wondering why the buzz GT is not on the approved list. On that same subject the thumbtrac birde is not on the approved list as well as the Teebird-L, Firebird-L, Starefire-L, Eagle-L, Beast-L. All of these discs have a mold change which to me implies new approval???

How can it be massively overstable and a cross between a Wraith and T-Bird? That makes as much sense as saying a Monster crossed with a Firebird give you a slightly stable disc.

On top of that, while I know the T-Rex was related to the T-bird, I just don't see anything that massive flying at all. I'd think this disc would be a roller, hard to get going but once started able to bring down shrubs, bushes and small trees.

I remember the Hammerhead, and have been looking for a disc like that for quite some time.



Picked up a mint one last year. It's a Cobra-ish mold, right? I am now starting a "floating" Innova collection as they seem to get discontinued almost immeadeately. Hammerhead, Hydra, Bulldog and Dragon. What else?

dolphin?

Correct

Glow Dragon

My Glow Dolphin is 176grams, it don�t think it will float,.... in water anyway ;)

Bulldogs don't float, do they?
i took the earlier comment to mean that Goblins float through the air; they won't float in water -- will they?

How can you say that a cross between the teebird and wraith would not be stable. Have you picked up a new star teebird and thrown it? Even when you break it in it's still stable, even for big arms. The star plastic also takes a while to break in. Unless you have been throwing the hell out of a star teebird, not TL, it will still be pretty stable.

It's not about the discs, it's about the name... Besides, how do you know I wasn't talking about a forehand roller. :D

Well I have to admit I'm not to keen on the name myself, but distance wise if it chews up the other discs and spits them out then its going in my bag. So far with all the new plastics and discs that innova has been putting out I still can't find anything I like better than the Orc.

I didn't see this get answered. Does anyone know?

Terry, must be an error in the approved list? :confused:
The DGA Softtouch; it says that 21cm in diameter, I have two generations of the Softtouch and both are 23,55 in diameter?
The other values could be alright though.
