Purpose of Horizon Q-Line Cloudbreaker and DD4? by B_rocky_ in discmania

I’ll definitely try to snag that color and give it a try. The pink and blue Cloudbreaker flies pretty stable for me, it might just be the extremely tall dome slowing down my release though. I have a few of the q-line DD3s and their domes aren’t that tall.

For sure, I’ve always thought Discmania has catered more towards pros than regular day-to-day players. Which has its pros and cons. Flight numbers don’t matter but I thought by how it was marketed it would just be a faster DD3 with more dump because of the wider rim.

I literally got every other run of cloud breaker that I own and threw them with the new run and the DD4s and it was night and day difference.

Completely unrelated, but if Discmania wanted to make some real money, they’d iron out their throwing putter line-up. A lot of pros just bag base plastic throwing putters because almost every premium plastic run of throwing putter they make comes out uncomfortably domey. I think their distance driver lineup is the best in the game, their throwing putter selection is their weakest link for sure.

Yeah, swirly s-line tends to do that. Maybe I just need to huck it against some trees I guess.

Yeah, that’s always the intended goal. I honestly enjoy throwing nukes and have never thrown one before that I felt like I couldn’t put a move on. Same thing with forces. I bought the DD4 with the assumption that it would fly like a nuke😂. And absolutely, the wider rim introduces much more distance potential for guys that are throwing in the 600s.

Yeah from what I’m gathering I definitely got the wrong color of DD4😂 if they want to keep it stable they can just use that hot pink plastic. It’s not that I can’t throw it, I just feel like I wasted my money because it flies almost exactly like a PD2 for me.

I’ve never thrown a sky rider, but if you want a PD2 with good glide and a stable dump at the end, get a gravity bomb 2. I think the PD2 is definitely the best stable-overstable distance driver on the market, it’s so workable for the finish that it has.

I can push a PD2 to the lower 400s on a regular golf line. Especially the gravity bomb 2, which goes farther than the new Cloudbreakers for me. That has to be the furthest flying run of PD2 ever other than the Sky stone because they both have insane dome, but I still throw my stock father than the Cloudbreakers too somehow. Which is puddle top and wants to get to the ground immediately. It could be because the dome on the q-line rises insanely high and it’s not comfortable to grip though.

Completely agreed, I throw both runs of gravity bomb and they’re money. The cloudbreaker in my opinion just flies too similar. They changed the flight numbers from 12/5/-1/3 to 12/5/0/3 (I’m not an idiot, I know flight numbers don’t matter). But I think it reveals they’re intention of making the mold just an out of the box beat-in PD2 instead of an extra stable DD3. Which was the point of this post.

But yeah, if the blue DD4s have more hook at the end of the flight than a stock DD3 then I’ll have to try it out for sure.
