To be completely honest I own NO DD discs, but absolutely love your youtube content. It is so thorough and makes me appreciate your company so much... in my near 20 years of disc golf I've invested heavily into innova products and really love my discs, but if I have the chance to come across any DD. I will more than likely pick some up. Keep up the great content!!!

Lucid Chameleon ON EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING. if you can't throw it well, at least you can love looking at it!

Good stuff, Danny and DD!! Thanks for the educating content!

Gotta say most underrated hyzer flip forehand disc is the prime EMac Truth. It’s pretty awesome.

This is exactly what I didn't know I needed to know. Seriously.. Thanks. I'm really glad I saw this before buying more. 👍

Thanks for a clear and easy comparison👌

Favorite plastic/mold. CLASSIC HYBRID CROWN. Hope y'all make this plastic a full release because I love this plastic for my putting and approach shots.

Im slightly buying more and more dynamic discs because they make the best discs and bags and i just bought the paratrooprr bag and my go-to discs is lucid truth ( absolutely favorite discs) and im going to sell all discmania and those and buy more dynamic discs. Great contens guys!

Thank you, newb starting out and asked in the Dynamic Discs Squad group and someone pointed me to here. Thank you, I was wondering why my starter disks were so beat up after one use (besides me hitting trees and every rock on the course) and why my Opto's and other seemed to fair much better. In short, I bought a lot of "trial disks" when I should have just used that money to buy better ones :) haha Thanks for this, easy to understand.

Fuzion plastic for the grip and durability. I 2nd the vote for the VIP-X Maiden

I throw a ton of Lucid plastic and I love it. Trying to get a driver in some Fuzion plastic soon though.

Biofuzion is also one of my favorite plastics also. I LOVE the Sheriff and Defender in Biofuzion plastic! Such an underrated plastic and underproduced. For putting I am 100% in the Classic/BT Hard camp. I do like the options of Lucid-X lately but I feel like this has taken away from base premium plastic production time and has lead to a lot of these sitting around while people are waiting for restocks on the same mold in Lucid or Biofuzion. One thing I appreciated about Paige Pierce when she was with DD is she would frequently recommend discs in Biofuzion or base premium plastics over the Lucid-X counterparts. Her name was on quite a few of these and it spoke to the sound advice she would give for recommending discs.

I like my slower speed drivers in the Lucid-X Plastic as it helps me control them a bit more with that added stability. I also like the Lucid-X for my understable drivers. Gets me a more controlled turn but still has some decent fade due to the extra stability.

Ended up with a glimmer Truth from a mystery box, and I couldn't even bring myself to throw it, it looks so cool! From what I understand it's kinda rare too

took my emac lucid/glow/and classic out today to see which if any i should bag. Was going to ask danny this question though i know he's answered it before. DGAM faq page? lol but thanks danny and quit reading my mind lol

More Hybrid Wardens!! Greatest grip for putting

hey i was just wondering if you guys are making a video of the usampc finals?

My fav driver is the Escape in Lucid plastic. It's hit many trees and still flys great

My bag is about 90% Discmania... but the Bio Fuzion Criminal (I bag 2 of them) is easily the most thrown disc in my bag. It is my ultimate utility/get out of jail free disc. Ive thrown a couple moonshine, lucid, and putted with a classic soft warden for a long time. Still, Bio Fuzion is my favorite DD plastic by far. Highly suggest the bio fuzion criminal to all

I recently started throwing your brand. I absolutely love the Judge. I use it for putting ang throwing. I want to try a fairway and distance driver but I'm not sure which plastic. My favorite is the GStar from Innova. Unless I'm throwing mids. I like champion and dx for those. I saw 5 years back you offered a "fluid plastic". Is that no longer available?

My favorite disc is the Lucid X Chameleon Verdict. A disc I would love seeing released is the Lucid X for the Marshal

Lucid Convict for forehand and Lucid Getaway for backhand. Both beatup and able to hyzerflip nicely

I love classic soft wardens for winter putting

Thank you for this. I just went out and bought a dx destroyer 153g. Gonna go throw it today

I just got my hands on a old slammer in fluid plastic. This thing is incredible. When is the fluid plastic going to make a comeback

I bet this was the hardest video he has made so far, how many times did he say plastic?

This was just what I needed. The Lucid Escape is one of my go to drivers. And I have been wondering how it would fly in fusion or Lucid Air plastic. Thanks Dan!

I wish that all discs came in Lucid-X and Bio Fuzion! It's great to gain familiarity with a mold and have a stable version, straight version, and understable version of the same mold! For example, my Lucid-X Trespass is a great wind fighting driver, my Lucid and Fuzion is great for dead-wind/cross-wind distance shots, and my Bio Fuzion is great for tailwind and hyzer flip drives.

I think every manufacture needs to do this. Or better yet, all manufactures do this together, and explain the similarities of their plastics, and differences in their plastics over the other companies.

Any plan up make classic hybrid a regular plastic? By far my favorite.

I would like a nice and domey lucid-x/chameleon Escape. That would be amazing!

Another great video subject! Seeing as I'm not pro level, I tend not to get the performance or rated flight characteristics out of my discs. Understanding the intended characteristics of the various plastics will help me when choosing a disc. Honestly, my most important factor when buying a disc is color. If it isn't a bright orange or neon yellow, I am literally just throwing my money away. Whenever I see a transparent or translucent disc, I laugh. Who would buy that! Beyond actually losing a disc, is all the time spent looking for a disc. We call it "that other game." As in, "We would have finished sooner, but we spent too much time playing that other game!" I suspect a lot of people are like me.

Fluid plastic is best plastic. All the durability and stability of LucidX, but with the feel of classic blend.

Aside from Stableness, do the different plastics affect Glide? I could swear my discs in Opto has just slightly more glide than my Zero ones.

Where would you put the moonshine classic blend wardens on the stability scale?

OK Danny I copied the transcript and you said "plastic" 102 times, this has got to be some sort of record.

Hybrid-X Warships would be so sweet.

Love classic soft wardens

great insight, especially since i can compare with some of the latitude plastics i have. However first you say that one plastic tends to come out a little bit more domey and overstable, then at the end you say another platic comes out flat topped and overstable? Does the stability not relate to the dominess? In any case I have a stupidly overstable doombird that i use as a utility disc and it’s very flat.

Biofusion and Lucid X. Oooh yeah baby.

I need some new Wardens!!! Did you guys quit making them?

Putters need a lot more grip, at least the option. With my awesome grippy Penrose base plastic, not only do they rarely see the 3rd row of chains or blast all the way through, but the grip will stop the putter on top of the basket and side bucket or band misses are considerably closer, and a lot of the time, it will never even fall from chains to settle in bucket. Penrose grip is also grippy in the cold weather, which is very rare. I hope DD considers extreme insane awesome grip in their putters one day. I am dumping my innova bag to support DD, everything but the putter for now.

Can't wait for some Lucid-X moonshine chameleon!

I have a question for DD, i have thrown innova for a long time but got tired of the inconsistency on runs of discs i like so i figured id try DD instead, but i have noticed that my fuzion defender beat in way way faster than my star destroyer did despite starting out about the same stability wise my defender is now flippy (6 months old) and my destroyer is about 2 years old and still has stability, is this normal or did i end up with a ”bad run”?

I would like to see a swan reborn in VIP or in something more stable. That way my putting putter can be the same as my throwing putter

Is Fuzion-X even a real thing? Never come across that in Europe, are they available from Latitude 64?

I was really hoping to see a grip rating and an answer to "Why?" these plastics change the stability. For example with Lucid-X, is that plastic more stable because it pulls on the inside of the rim and causes a change in the shape of the mold after it has been removed from the press? I was also hoping to see you talk about what effect the nicks on discs really have on the way they fly. This feels like a summary video, and was surely helpful in getting rid of the confusion for newer players, but as a more intermediate player I'm left wanting a deeper dissection of each of the plastics to know why they have the effects that you explained.

Hey Danny, is there a chart showing which plastic blend names go together between the trilogy disc brands? That might be helpful for people to realize their Opto Air plastic is just Lucid Air plastic, under a different name(if that’s the case).

Super Soft Judge ✊🏼

What is classic Hybrid? Is that the same as Classic Blend?

I'm happy to know I'm not the only one who putts on one leg.

Do you know why my lucid and fuzion brand new judges are less stable then a beat in classic hard judge???

Lucid Deputy please

I realise it is not a DD disc, but.... can we PLEASE, for the love of god, get a VIP-X Maiden!!!

Personally I love the Moonshine plastic

Take a drink every time he says plastic

Restock the website. None of this matters if I cant actually buy my favorite discs. Great content though.

Please, please, PLEASE bring back Fluid plastic!!!

Where does the lucid ice fall in terms of stability

Wow I did not realize how much of a difference plastic makes in the same disc

I miss fluid 😭😭😭😭

Slammers in lucid x glimmer

I am old fellow so anything that is easy to find... Is my prime choise. ”It landed somewhere in here, but where on earth it is...”

PoF 5.02. Eric was not throwing the Air discs significantly faster (3%?). It's not the additional velocity. Assume an Air driver and a Lucid driver come out of the mold with the identical shape even though they don't. When they fly with the same velocity they will generate the identical aerodynamic LIFT. What changes is how the disc reacts to that generally "upward" force. Greatly simplified, a lighter disc experiences more time where the Lift - Weight = greater than zero. (Glide?) But, since discs spin, any of that lift that isn't pushing near the center of the flight plate results in the disc tilting. And, with less mass, the Air disc is more influenced by any force it sees. Hence more "squirrelly" in calm and wind. (Oh, and why a Blizzard Boss thrown 60ft in the air with a 50mph tailwind goes really far. 🤦🏻‍♂️) BTW, Air discs are also easier on your arm when throwing forehands and when, like me, you are getting older.

Too confusing lol The video helped tho thank you

super soft judge baby

We need a chameleon Justice.

More fugitives in any plastic.

goodbyes

You forgot Drift.

All I heard was "we have plastics called berry, shimmer, shine, flim-flam, zebra, corn, kooky, zany, and sounds of a slide whistle". Who the heck comes up with the dumbass names of the plastics? Could make it easier to understand, just saying.
