I say who cares if they approved it or grandfathered in, the person who throws it well could probably do better with an overstable Innova, Discraft, or other well known brand anyway. I would consider that disc a detriment to their game, over an edge. But I'm sure someone has a cousin, who's brother in law's mother threw it 400' once. :-) Can someone name a local, well known player, who swears by this disc? I would love to hear what they have to say, and see them throw this disc 400-450'.
Try Lane Mason PDGA# 11935, maybe you have heard of him. He is a local pro and a 400-450 foot throw by him would be a let down! Sure he can throw a lot of other cool discs and he putts really well, but he likes to dabble in the epic. If you don't know him ask around and you might find a youtube video or two.

Just because this disc is not the disc of choice by most people does not mean we should pass judgment on its use.
