In the future, that is a possibility. For right now, we want to focus on getting our discs out in the market. We are very happy with our SRP plastic, so for now, that will be the plastic we use. And of course NIKE plastic for our Ultra-Lights.

why don't you use the nike in heavier weights? Would the weighting agent ruin the integrity of the plastic?

questtech2002

The Nike plastic is run straight of the material that we got from Nike. Adding anything to it would change the material, and it's possible that it wouldn't have the same characteristics

Have you ever considered a flatt-top Wildfire? I love the grip of the rim, but don't like the float that is created by the dome. If I could get a flat version at about 160 grm. I think my eternal search for the perfect midrange might finally come to an end.

We might make a flat-top Wildfire, we also might make a flatter top Lazer. For the time being, I don't know if you've tried it, but the Backbone has the same rim as the Wildfire, but with a flatter top

Picked up the Backbone. Still too domey.

I do need to say that I am a big fan of Quest AT. The innovations you are bringing to D-Golf, while somewhat unorthodox, are always intriguing.

Keep up the interesting worrk.

P.S. - I look foreward to the flat top.

P.P.S. - Have you ever considered opening up your graphics options to the participants of this forum, alla Gateway. They seem to be quite talented, and if you offered product in exchange for the work you would be getting your stuff out to the people who buy discs most. Just an idea.

Actually, the Inferno art was created that way. We may do that again in the future, but for the time being, we were getting stamps done in a quick time frame, so we didn't go that route. It's possible that we would make a 2nd stamp, or a new stamp for some of our existing discs, but that isn't on the horizon right now.

I just want to say that you guys at Quest are doing great things. The throws I get with your dimpled discs are awesome! They really have elevated my game. The T-Bone feels so comfortable in my hand, and flies amazingly straight. I dont have a Rock-It yet, but I plan on gettin one soon, and I'll get back to ya!

About the 100 M Lazer, with the dimples on both sides of the wing, and the dome, is it less stable than the Scream DT or about equal? Also, is it height sensitive like the Scream DT or will it have more natural lift? While I love the Scream DT's for anhyzers, I find it frustrating that in order to achieve good anny distance I have to throw it at a certain height or the disc will crash and roll or fade out if its too high.

readysetstab
Jul 09 2007, 06:26 AM
it's probably a little less stable. not because of the demples but because of the design. it's really hard to control.

yokevin1
Jul 09 2007, 03:24 PM
Actually with the Lazer I've found its very spin control oriented. I mainly use it for hyzer shots with a longer turn at the end. Thrown harder it goes straighter for me. Put lost of spin on it and it gets a nice S turn to it, so I think control is there provided you aren' t trying to over throw it. Good disc but I mainly use the Inferno and Tbird (need to try the Tbone more of my sons) for most my game.

readysetstab
Jul 09 2007, 07:30 PM
maybe you've thrown a newer one? i don't know. i threw a proto a while ago and hated it. flipped on every throw. and no, it wasn't me. it was understable enough that i tried to do the barrel roll thumber and it worked pretty well. not quite like a beat epic, but i got it to roll. you can't do that with a stable disc.

or maybe it's just because i have so much arm speed :p

questtech2002
Jul 09 2007, 08:37 PM
a lot of our discs are made to throw with finesse, not power. If you are trying to put a lot of power on almost any of our discs, they will flip on you. But if you tone it down to 60-80% power, they will be relatively easy to throw, and go straight. And in the terms of some of our discs, go a long way.

All of those discs have previously been released with the only ones with a shot to make a comeback are the Scream and Scream 2.

As for the non-dimpled versions of t-bone and rock-it, I think it is more likely that we will make another dimpled version of each, but make them more overstable.

As of right now, we have been mainly focusing on discs that beginners could also use. We do have a couple of semi-overstable discs, the Raging Inferno and the Scorcher. We might come out with a disc that you can put "mustard" on but that's not in our view as one of the next couple discs.

Steve if you are going to mess with the T-bone mold I need to get a box of Max weight ones before you do. That disc just won me a B-tier this weekend because I could throw it 350ft dead straight with no runup because the bozex were so bad.

Why are the Inferno's so inconsistent when it comes to color? My first was a black one, and for a lil bit it was stable, but beat quick and became realy understable. My 2nd was a white one, and with the most extreme spike hyzer it flipped like crazy and flew like a 90 degree angle. The one I have now is red, and its real stable with a slight turn but comes back.

Plastics with different densities have different rates that they can pour into the mold. Some plastics pour into the mold very quickly, allowing more material to collect in particular areas of the disc (normally the rim instead of the flight plate). This creates a disc that's more gyroscopic, and therefore faster (and possibly more stable, but I'm not sure of that).
I'm not really a plastic expert though. I was hoping the Quest guy would chime in.

the turbo putt is on the list, and is approved for play at all tournaments, including both Worlds. yes, the approval has been discussed, but be assured the Turbo Putt has had PDGA approval without interruption since 6-5-07.

i found the rockit a bit understable but controllable at slower speeds. i wouldnt mind getting it dialed in better - it has a nice feel to it.

man, those infernos are long. i swapped out my driver lineup with inferno, ri, ri-DT and a tbone. all the i and the ri need is to be thrown. very nice drivers - i'd like to play TX states with them i think.

i gave a turbo putt to a friend who is known to use such techniques. he called me today to tell me he was goofing with some drivers on a course we're building. he pushed a couple out to about 320 and then on a whim he tried the TP. he said he released it at maybe 45 degrees hyzer. he said it went to 350. has anyone else tried busting the TP out there and gotten that result?

I haven't tried to do anything but putt with it, but the RI DT and the Odyssey LRD have both been added to my bag after throwing them this weekend. Both flew 20 - 40 feet past my wraith everytime. Both felt very good in the hand. The TBone and Rock it had some good results too. Both very controllable.

the TBone seems like it is slower and softer than some of the crazy fast ones out there. but its very controllable. i had to take a bit off, cuz the plastic is great feeling, and the disc has some serious D to it. a couple times i got it out too far before i figured it out. very nice controllable driver!

That's why I'm always looking for the E Inferno's, but this new plastic is supposed to be like Z plastic or CryZtal Z, and that stuff is some of the best plastic ever. Might make the disc a little more stable, but at least it'll hold up more than a round.

its not at all like Z or crystal Z... I know because I have a T-Bone made of the new Quest plastic. I'd say it's Starrish or ESPish in composition. It is far more sturdy than the SRP and you are correct, it is more stable.

Anybody thrown the inferno in "Premier" plastic yet? I got 2 in but haven't thrown them yet. It doesn't look as domey as the SRP Inferno, so I'm guessing it may be like the Tee Bone and be more overstable in Premier than in the other plastics.

the inferno in premium is more stable...

I actually dont like the way it flies compared to my SRP's. Its too finicky for me when trying to get it to do that LONG slight "S" flight. I either flip it too much or dont turn it enough and it fades out. unreliable.

If only the SRP wasnt such JUNK plastic.

I looked around on here for quite a while, even looking at the list of approved discs, and did not find a definitive answer so:

Are the ultralight discs that are manufactured by Quest (and other companies) legal to use in tournament play? Or are they strictly recreational?

I could see where an extremely light driver would greatly benefit my wife and kids in their play of the game as there would not have to be as much manipulation of the disc to get a turnover. And then there would be less room for error on the angle of release.

There are no minimum weight restrictions on discs, so if the mold is approved you're good to go.
