MATERIAL:
Westside Discs' VIP Air material is a variation of their VIP plastic designed to be lighter weight  while maintaining good durability.  

Here's a breakdown of its key features:

Reduced Weight: The core technology behind VIP Air is achieving a lighter disc overall. This is accomplished by thinning out the flight plate and rim, with more material concentrated in the center for better impact resistance.

Durability: While lighter, VIP Air discs inherit the long-lasting characteristics of VIP plastic, making them capable of handling punishment on the course.

Trade-off in Stability: The lighter weight of VIP Air discs comes with a slight decrease in stability compared to standard VIP plastic. This means they might be more likely to turn and fade less during flight.

VIP Air is a good option for disc golfers who want the durability of VIP plastic in a lighter weight disc. This can be beneficial for those with slower throwing arms or who prefer a lighter feel in their discs. However, keep in mind the slightly reduced stability when selecting a VIP Air disc.

DESCRIPTION:
Westside Sword is a popular distance driver disc known for its user-friendly straight flight with a reliable fade at the end. Here's a breakdown of its flight characteristics:

Speed: 12 (out of 14, a high speed disc)

Glide: 5 (out of 7, a moderate glide disc)

Turn: -0.5 (stable, with a slight tendency to turn minimally when thrown with power)

Fade: 2 (has a predictable fade at the end of the flight path)

This disc is a good option for a variety of players due to its stable flight path. Here's why:

For beginners and slower arms: The Sword offers more distance potential than slower speed discs while remaining controllable due to its minimal turn.

For experienced players with power: The Sword can be pushed for even more distance and will hold a straight line for a good portion of the flight before finishing with a reliable fade.
