just wanted to say that while the 1.32 Omegas were a let down the new runs of Q-Astra, QPLS, and SJLS are all amazing

Q-Astra domed up really well and they made it in bright colored plastics. The dome is nice and even, a bit poppy. Much better than the flat flat flat CFR run. Was putting these past 450ft on a straight hyzer flip. The fade as more forward and not dumpy like the flat ones. Definitely going to be ordering a couple more

QPLS - test a few that came into work. They have some solid colored QPLS that resemble the opaque plastic from the 1.8 QJLS mishap but the blend is better. Feels more durable. Not as stable as the CE-QPLS but really nothing ever will be. I still need to test the stardust QPLS we got because they PLH and dome was more significant

finally the SJLS - The plastic is a really nice Sirius blend. Grippy and most came out with a nice dome. Some are very champy-star. The dome and PLH/shoulder feel a lot like the domey CE-QJLS felt in my hand. I am going to see if I can break one in to eventually replace my CE stash.

Really happy with the new plastic blends coming out. The 1.32 omega actually does have some gritty to it like the 1.30-1.31 but it feels like the plastic almost didn't mix properly. The discs came out slick so they might just need some heavy use. They aren't as stiff either. Hopefully they can find the right blend again and it wasn't a "lucky" couple runs for us. Got me some Texas stamped omega 1.30s that are about to find the rotation.

I just found this CE blend Polaris LS (1.12) in great condition at my local PIAS for $5. It was literally the cheapest disc they had in their rack... there were several beat to crap late run Innova DX discs that were marked at $6 or $7. It's weird how Millennium stuff gets no love...

I am really happy with the 150 QJ 1.8 mishaps and my 150 SJs. Any idea if these new runs come in 150 weights?

If my PIAS EVER had anything Millennium for $5....I buy it all sight unseen...then I go out and buy me a lottery ticket :D

It's 170g, and I think I'm going to do some field work with it for a couple of weeks to see if it works itself into my bag. I'm not a disc collector, so if I don't end up throwing it I would probably sell/trade it.

It's much more stable than I was expecting. I can really lay into it and it won't turn over. Are most CE discs similarly more stable than their non-CE counterparts?

Stopped by PIAS again and picked up this Aurora MS for $4. It's in practically new condition, still had the original price sticker on it. It has the Ontario tooling on the underside... can anyone tell me a little bit about this disc? Specifically what year it's from...

I just sold a 1.6 and I swear it felt like CE so I don't doubt it one bit. The part about the dimples and the big x seems just like the CE QJ X-outs that were floating around awhile back.

While I am here I might as well let you guys in on a huge sale of Millennium Goodies I have going on at dgcr.

I have felt that exact 1.7 "CE blend". It definitely has some CE to it. Not a pure CE. More like really good pro or kc mixed with CE. Its a nice disc for sure. The profile molded up to make it feel like the beefy CE.

I have two in mid-weight.
a Omega SS Green 175 Normal 6 Normal 1.22
a Omega SS Yellow 162 Normal 8 Normal 1.24
a Omega SS White 160 Blank 10 Normal 1.27
a Omega SS White 171 Blank 10 Normal 1.27
a Omega SS Pink 169 Blank 10 Normal 1.30
a Omega SS White 175 Blank 10 Bar ?
a Omega SS Orange 172 Blank 9 Worlds Biggest 2008

Have to go back and think this thru, but a pair of 22's 24's or 25's would make a good trade.

Anybody got more feedback on the Stardust QJ's? Thinking about replacing my 11x EL's with these as the 11x EL's are getting harder and more expensive to replace.
