I haven't thrown any Ti plastic yet but I'd expect the Ti Wasp to be just like....a Wasp.

Aaaa!! The beauty of Discraft.

The Wasp is Eric McCabes Disc to come out in Ti plastic. I just got a buzz in yesterday and it seems real nice. Havnt thrown it much but from what discraft says they are susposed to have more glide. The plastic looks cool as hell though!

The only Ti disc that is supposed to be VERY different is the Stalker. Much more overstable than the z or proto esp. Sharp tooling as well. Still a great disc though I am told.

PURCHASED A STACK OF TI BUZZZES IN DIFFERENT COLORS AND TOOK A GOLD ONE OUT FOR A RIDE AND IT FLIES PRETTY MUCH THE SAME. THEY DO HOWEVER FEEL STIFF AND YOU CAN SEE WHAT SEEMS TO LOOK LIKE METAL SAND SWIRLED IN (SORT OF LIKE THOSE OLD ETCH BOARDS THAT YOU COULD DRAW BLACK LINES USING THOSE TWO WHITE KNOBS.....CANT THINK OF THE ACTUAL NAME).....

ANYWAY, I KINDA IN A WAY LIKE THE EMBOSSED NAME..........IT ACTS AS A THUMB GRIP. CANT WAIT TO GET THE WASP AND MY HANDS ON A BUZZZ SS AND HORNETT AND DRONE AND STRATUS AND........

Etch-A-Sketch...and from my experience it feels like ESP but with more grip, and a wee-bit more stiffness.

Dan, I believe the Ti Wasp is now replacing the buzzz ss since emac hardly threw them. He really didn't want THAT as his signature disc considering he mainly threw the buzzz and wasp. FWIW. Looks like for now it is going to just be the buzzz, stalker, wasp, nuke, and force. Doss gets the Nuke, Buzzz, and Force, Paige Pierce gets the stalker and Emac gets the wasp. Who knows what else they will come out with. Heard the predator might be a possibility. They are not going to have signature discs however on the esp or z plastic anymore. Just their Ti signature series.

One thing is for sure..........the ti buzzz that i am throwing now is a little bit less stable than the other z buzzzes i have thrown.

I hope the ti wasp are flat and fly pretty much the same as the z line.

Hey Dan,

What colors have you been throwing with? I am curious before buying some as they tend to be kind of dark or tend to blend in to the NW environment.

Can't wait to buy the wasp/buzzz Ti combo!
