Wes,
I threw two at the NAAC I believe. It flew similar to a more stable Vulcan in my opinion, very nice feeling plastic like a worn in Star. I would have bought one if I had cash on me that day. But I don't have one in my bag, and I can only give you a 1st impression.

I got one at NAAC. The plastic is almost indestructible! I musta hit a thousand trees...no Taco.

Kinda neat...If you run your finger lightly across the plate, it sounds like "scratchin' "an old LP record, only not as loud.

Anyone know if they are made in Oregon?
(What's a Vulcan throw like SS? I only know the Wraith, Boss, TBird and Dart... this decade.)
And still looking to find where I could hold, throw and buy a Skyquest disc... if made in Oregon.
If not, someone tell me and I'll stop asking about their discs.
And now that posts have mentioned NAAC a couple times, I remember briefly looking at their table and disliking the stamp, so I didn't look closer.

The Vulcan is a very understable high-speed driver.

I do have a sidewinder- is the Vulcan that, or more, understable? (Thanks AS)
Anyone have an opinion on the speed of the SQ Medusa or L13.....
and I don't really know which of those other posts have been referring to....???
Oneshotleft- which do you have?
NO ONE else, local, has one?

The Vulcan is pretty Sidewinder-like... but theoretically with more distance potential (wider wing).

I have a Medusa. Like a slightly more stable (lightweight) Sidewinder. So far i like it, and it takes punishment really well.
