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.

For intermediate players, the ESP Thrasher absolutely bombs. This is the first disc I ever got over 400 feet in a field and in a scoring round. The disc is pretty shallow and the rim isn't too wide which makes it comfortable in a lot of people's hands. The only problem that I have with the disc is that the angle control can be finicky and if you don't get enough hyzer, it can absolutely turn straight into the ground. While I wouldn't recommend the Thrasher for beginners, it is a great disc for the step up to true distance drivers. (Nivå på anmelder: Middels)
Great disc if you're new to the sport. This is one of the first discs that i bought and loved it. As my arm speed increased, i started having a hard time with turning over this disc...which makes sense. Now that I have more control i often find myself throwing this on long turnover shots where i don't want to see much fade or long uphill shots. Solid disc, although i don't think there's anything special about it to warrant 5 stars, nor does the disc/plastic feel particularly good in the head. (Nivå på anmelder: Nybegynner)
Solid disc. I'm primarily a flick player with a weaker backhand. I could get a huge turning s curve out of this thing. Ultimately replaced by the Maya as that has less turn but still weak arm friendly (Nivå på anmelder: Viderekommen)
Great max distance disc for me in perfect conditions. The amount of high-speed turn on this disc provides little to no forgiveness for bad releases. With that said I can get about 250' worth of distance out of this disc before it even flips to flat, another 100' while turning, and if I catch it just right another 50+ feet while it fades out. The only drawback to this disc for me is its lack of reliability. I am unable to trust it on a forehand because it's liable to keep turning and not come back, which is why some pros use this for rollers. I, however, haven't been able to get a repeatable roller on this disc, even when I throw a great roller with the thrasher it doesn't go as far as my turnover shot, and the roller is highly unpredictable, low percentage play for me. I could see this disc being great for someone who's currently maxing out at about 300' and looking to work on flexing the disc more for that extra 50' or so. (Nivå på anmelder: Viderekommen)
A good distance driver for those with smaller hands. The rim feels a bit too small to be comfortable for me but I know others who love it. (Nivå på anmelder: Middels)
