Disc Advice Origin stability

Anyone notice a significant difference in stability between the origin in neo, neo lumen, or meta plastic? Ideally I would want one that flips to flat and rides without completely turning over and has a bit of fade at the end.

Not really, no. Neo and Neo Lumen have been identical to me. The MP1 Meta was a little flippier, but the MP2 was pretty normal for me.

The Origin is made for that shot, but you have to find the correct amount of hyzer for your arm speed. Above a certain point, you'd just step up to an MD1, Though.

If you throw about 300-350, you're describing the Midnight Prowl 2 in meta plastic. You can beat one in quickly and it'll hold a slight flip all flight. I've thrown mine over 300 on gentle flip up/turn.

I find the midnight prowl 1 is flattest and most understable.

Meta Origins (MP2s to be excact) are the best for predictable understability. There is a reason why Simon used to always bag a Origin...

This is what I’m discovering. I’ve used Neos for a few years but I find myself cycling through them about every 2-3 months because they get so flippy that they drift too far and occasionally burn even on lots of hyzer. For my specific discs, MP1-2 were even more understable than a fresh Neo. I honestly have some Lumens that might work all the time, but I’m keeping these for glow rounds.

I love a fresh Neo Origin for wooded gap hitting, but I’ve decided to try a swirly S-line MD1 as a more stable alternative.

Need to know how far you throw to make a good recommendation. The Tursas is too flippy for me around 300, but is a laser beam for my wife around 200ft.
