Champion Ape Factory Second

I bought a max weight Champion Ape to try out, and it was not a disc for me. This disc is very overstable and if you can't get this up to speed it is going to be a useless disc for most. I am not much of a forehand player, but I could see where the Ape may be good for that purpose. Outside of utility/trick type shots, this was not a disc for me. (Posted on 12/31/2018)

This disc is my go-to for tomahawk. I feel like i'm throwing a baseball right where I want.

You can't beat the price of these misprints either! (Posted on 5/17/2017)

I love this disc! First time thrown 350 straight to a high skip chain out. Worth it, plan on buying a few more for my bag.I did have a good snap on it though,I later threw it out on a wide side arm amazing fade.with power it does what you tell it. (Posted on 7/31/2016)

It took me a long time to warm up to my Ape, but now that I have, it has a permanent place in my bag. I’ve got a 175g Champion Ape.

At first I used this disc primarily as a utility driver, meaning it only came out of my bag on very windy days or when I felt I needed a really aggressive fade, which it works beautifully for both. But after a while as I developed my power and form I started to work on “flex”ing this disc out. I would throw this disc on a slight anhyzer line (RHBH) and with enough power it would hold that anhyzer line for a bit then fade very predictably. I won an intermediate division distance contest flexing out my Ape like that, felt good. Also this disc is a great disc for forehand throws as well, as long as you can throw it a bit on an anhyzer line (otherwise it will dive hard) you can get great distance with it too.

Last thing I’ll say about the Ape is that it is a wide rim driver that needs a lot of power to get good results. I would not recommend this driver for beginners. However once you get the hang of it, you can get great skip shots, consistent flex shots or awesome spike hyzer lines.

My favorite long drive disc for the side arm, super fast with a predictable flight path. It also has a crazy skip in low grass or dirt, which is a fun trick to pull out on familiar courses. (Posted on 7/16/2013)

For those with big arms and lots of snap this is for you! You can throw these on huge turnover routes and it will come back every time. Also great for windy days. (Posted on 4/2/2013)

did and order and had one slot for one more disc so i decided to try out an ape, and its a very interesting disc. I have a lot of power on my arm, and i loved throwing this thing because it really is SUPER overstable. wether you forehand or backhand this disc is a really reliable for your overstable needs. I'm and avid firebird thrower, and this thing really reminds me of that, but with a lot more speed. Still experimenting, and ill update with anything else i find. As for the disc, there were 3-4 bubbles in the rim, but the disc was perfect! (Posted on 12/23/2011)
