What does it mean that the image is labeled "Actual Disc"?
The "Actual Disc" mark indicates that it is our own image of the exact disc you will receive. There will therefore be NO variation in color shades or stamp.
All discs marked "Actual Disc" are also weighed by us with precision scales. Since manufacturers often have a larger margin of error on the scale, you may experience receiving a product that is marked with a different weight.
We group discs that have identical colour, stamp and weight together, so you may find that there is more than 1 in stock of a disc marked "Actual Disc".
What weight should I choose?
What weight should I choose?
Short answer: Is there a difference of a couple of grams between the different variants? Then it doesn't matter much.
Long answer: In general, a lighter disc is often easier to throw for beginners, but is more affected by wind and can be perceived as less reliable. Furthermore, a lighter disc will "skip" forward less when it hits the ground. Experiment with different weights to discover the differences.
If you buy a disc under 170g, it is considered a "lightweight disc". It can be beneficial to experiment with lighter weights, especially for beginners and players who struggle to get up to speed on the disc.
Genius is a very versatile fairway driver. The primary area of use is backhand throws for beginners, who will find that the disc flies far relatively easily. Due to the disc's flying properties, this disc can be used for countless throws.

This review is for the active premium plastic. (Nivå på anmelder: Middels)
I'm a huge fan of this disc. Throwing a long backhand turnover shot is made easy with this disc. I bag an archangel by Innova for long turnover... works well with my arm speed, the problem is archangel only comes in DX plastic so it beats in very quick. With the Genius, you get the premium plastic option so consistency of flight never changes. (Nivå på anmelder: Middels)
The Premium Plastic is not nearly as flippy as baseline. At a lower power - it's an easy straight with a right finish disc. Good for touch shots where you want to finish a little to the right without having to throw very hard (Nivå på anmelder: Middels)
As a RHBH player with no forehand, I find the Baseline Genius to be a disc that offers a lot of utility. It is excellent for uphill shots, especially those which turn to the right. It is also great for turnover shots, and hyzerflips for distance and snaking through gaps. When thrown with power, it is one of the best-feeling discs on-release that I own, seeming to zoom out of the hand faster than other "Speed 7" discs. (Nivå på anmelder: Middels)
This is a fantastic understable fairway driver. It has tons of glide, but a little bit of stability to not flip over and roll too easily. The plastic is also nice and durable. I am a fan of the discmania essence, but the plastic on that is a bit too gummy, so the Genius is perfect if you prefer something more like the C line plastic. The genius reminds me of the Innova tee bird as far as the mold and the feel in the hand, but a version that is much easier to turn over and shape lines through the woods. This is currently my go to understable fairway. Highly recommend (Nivå på anmelder: Viderekommen)
