Today, I'm testing the Spin Pro, a next-generation flying disc touted for its unique design. It's said to be as throwable as a ball and facilitates easier trick performance. My son Brandon and I went to a nearby park to try it out.

In the 90's I got a similar "trick" Frisbee for participation in a school fundraising event. This frisbee had a cone in the center for doing finger tricks, but it was a solid piece of plastic. It was my favorite Frisbee ever. I think it was actually a rebranded "Spinjammer Pro."

Never bought a frisbee. In the 70’s as kids we used to get free promotional frisbees from our neighbor. His Australian Shepherd “Casey” was in a Kal Kan dog food commercial catching a frisbee and the company kept sending them free dog food and yellow frisbees with the Kal Kan logo on them. We used to play frisbee with the dog and he never missed. They were a bit chewed but still flew fine. Good, simpler times.

@justaguy6100 19 дней назад

You CAN throw a frisbee forehand as well, it's a slightly different grip but it works well. If you're doing delay tricks _maybe_ that centerpiece would help, but I think it adds too much weight to be worth it. From what I see, trying to get velocity and launch angle right throwing from that centerpiece is awkward at best. You can give it more spin, probably, but that's about it.

@falxonPSN 10 дней назад

There was a version of this back in the late '80s or early '90s that had basically all these features except it was molded into a single piece design so it was bulletproof. It almost seems like they have gone backwards on product design here. The center part had a cone that stuck up through the center of the disc so you could spin it on the palm of your hand in theory.
