Ultimate mixes the skills and strategies of soccer, basketball and football, but you don't need to play any of those to shred. Designed in conjunction with the Ultimate Pros. Includes a Free DVD so you can learn the rules of Ultimate and techniques.

Summary: lies lies lies
Comment: I'm just so offended that the "free DVD" does NOT come in the package AS HINTED in the description. You have to mail away for it. I have zero tolerance for this sort of dis-honesty from a manufacturer.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Wham-o's suck
Comment: As a college ultimate frisbee player, I can tell you right now that playing with a disc from Wham-o is a BIG no-no. If you bring one of these to practice, you will be ridiculed. If an ultimate player sees you with one of these, you will be ridiculed.
Save yourself the trouble and buy a disc from Discraft. They feel better in the hand, and their edges aren't as sharp. Throwing a forehand with a Wham-o disc hurts.

Summary: Go with the Discraft 175g Ultra Star
Comment: All organized ultimate played in the United States and most of the world uses the Discraft Ultra Star: Discraft Ultra Star - White.
This is not a bad product, but I rate this low since there is a better option out there for a lower price.
The differences are subtle, but certainly are noticable with a different feel on the grip and thickness of the disc.
With that being said, any 175g disc is going to be light years better to any freebie "frisbee" and cheap disc you buy. You'll throw farther, more accurate, and have much more control with a 175g disc especially if you're having trouble in windier conditions.

Summary: Good balance, good flight, great buy
Comment: It's been almost a year since I've owned this frisbee and while I haven't had the opportunity to throw it a lot, it's been a pleasure each time I get the chance. It certainly replaces the good quality 175 I had before my dog got to it. I like 175g discs because they aren't affected by normal breezes and have enough weight to carry momentum a long distance. But are not so heavy that they take a strong person to throw and/or catch. This is a great all-around frisbee.

Summary: A fine disc
Comment: I play with both discraft and whamo... No noticeable difference.. Maybe if your a pro or a faithful of discraft (or maybe work for them).. then you can tell the difference or at least will claim that discraft is the best... Apparently that must be the case in some of the other reviews... But for casual players and backyard frisbee enthusiasts (like me) this disc is a great flying disc and has a great feel to me...But hey, I am a regular guy... I like Discraft too... I like golf too... but I do not claim allegiance to Titlest either, or Nike Golf shirts. Its a brand for all sakes........ I just don't fall into that Taste Great - Less filling, Ford - chevy, Democrat - Republican camps like so many reviewers do... Its a frisbee... My only gripe with Whamo is, there ridiculous trademark claim on the word frisbee.... Good disc... You won't be disappointed...
