If you decide not to use your disc I’ll be at wisconsin to take it off your hands.

I used my disc last year. Will use my disc again this year.

I used a disk in '02. Faster than a 404.

I’ll be using my disc there this september. But I’m curious, what makes the course so suited to a disc in your mind? It seems to me that the up and down is not as good for a disc as a flat course such as Florida.

I take my answer back. If you’re in the M30-34 AG, you should definitely run your 404. Otherwise, feel free to run your disc.

Always use the disc.

Up is not so good for a disc.
Down is very good for a disc.

I’m sure you’ll beat any weight penatly on the way up, with the better aerodynamics at a higher speed coming down the hill.

Hills also help block the wind.
