    I totally agree, but surprisingly Innova has been pretty consistent with Halo Destroyers. Color defines the mould they have used. That white/pink is very close to 2021 series. I wish they would have thrown black/pink in this video. Those have a massive dome. The domiest of 2022 Heimburg Destroyers. Discs that I have seen were consistent within the same color. It is easy to buy different color to find different flight. It is another question that should discs with different moulds be all called Destroyers since those are different discs.

    @@user-rn8sy7kj1h It is known that Innova has used different moulds in discs and e.g. in Destroyers. Vulcan tops, Wraith tops etc. Bottom parts from different discs as well. That is how they get different parting lines and flights. A bit unfair for consumers to call them all Destroyers. A bit like calling all berries strawberries and you never know if you get a blackberry, blueberry or strawberry. Nightmare to order those from online shops, because you never know what mould you get. At least they all are overstable.

    Its never covered enough that if the average rec player (rt hand backhand) threw these, they'd dump left and hyzer to vertical within 150 ft, haha. I know these guys need to sell discs, but there needs to be some acknowledgement that if you don't throw 550+ ft , these discs will not flip up, turn over and glide.

    Oakley, maybe I'm wrong, I've been wrong a million times. But if I put your footwork, overlaying other long flyers footwork. I feel your losing 40ft, your start down the runway, is at a way faster pace, than your liftoff footwork. Looks like you slow down to much, you can't really change that, unless you rotate different, and that would force you to make to many changes. I'd like to see you just, slow down your opening steps, gradually speeding up to point of release. Tell lurch, put a 8ft board, longways, leaning against basket, right at top of catcher, his putts hit low instead of high way over ratio, means your a tad gun-shy, work on it, keep hitting that board, you'll get them up, tell uli, get his putters nose up, hes got nose down, and stands to stiff, no legs, Putting is all legs, Tell Calvin, putt over a car allday one day, allday, from 40 and 50. And he will win 3 in a row. Big ones.
