I Threw the Weirdest Disc Ever | Aerobie Epic

- čas přidán 31. 05. 2024
- In this video, I find a way to obtain one of the weirdest discs ever created - the Aerobie Epic. Once obtained, I put it to the test with a thorough gameplan - birdie it, tune it, and tomahawk it. The Epic was a wild disc to try and I had a TON of fun using it.
Send me any discs that can rival its' oddness please!
This is my very first youtube video so I hope you guys enjoyed it. Please leave critiques and fun comments down below!

I've been playing recreationally for about 10 years now, and I only have gotten 1 ace thus far. My 1 ace came from this disc lmao. A group of 4 let me pass them since I was playing solo, and they could not believe what they saw from the beginning of me bending the disc, watching it tumble then glide in the air, and watching it crash in the chains. I absolutely love this disc!
dude that is actually nuts - the disc is so cool!!!
You forgot to disappear into a cornfield…
It was your day brother 🎉
THIS is how you push disc golf content forward! Cant wait to watch the next one. Storytelling 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
dude THANKS!!! 🫡🫡
@@jmillydg it’s a tomahawk or thumber disc works very well with them
I have never been into disc golf, but I can get into this style of content for sure! I would love to see the scientific explanation behind why the shapes makes it so different also! Let's get smarter every day 🔥
@@reedtrullz every disc has a different shape to turn left to right or right to left and even the different plastic each disc is made out of can affect flight patterns kind of interesting
I threw an Epic every day for 4 years from 2016-2020. I was also a baseball pitcher. Let me tell you something. A tuned epic on a 90mph tomahawk throw will barrell roll directly into chain from 200ft away. You can also throw it straight at the sky and it will glide down at target if you have to go up over trees and can't Heiser.
You don't throw this disc like a disc. It's the weird side chick that gets the job done in weird ways.
EXACTLY! I played tennis in high school, and was 1st singles all years while maintaining the faster serve on the team. I never “officially” played baseball, but with improper form, out of conditioning, not in shape, and 2 years after I stopped playing sports, I was finally able to have a chance to have a pitch clocked and I was throwing over 80. I always figured I could throw it quick, but with training I could have been pretty good. But throwing a tomahawk with this disc feels exactly like a baseball pitch or a tennis serve. I’ve tried it with a boss, and a destroyer, and it’s just not the same! It’s so hard to find discs that work like this disc the fact that you can tune it, and that you can force a full turn over in the air, and have it just glide to the finish line on open holes, OR you can throw a thumber just to swap the direction of the fade AND that you can just chuck it straight through a gap leaves this disc with SO many options.
One thing we learned back in the day when these were still in production, was that you can tune most high speed drivers. The Epic was one of the only ones that would let you re-tune it successfully. Something in the plastic allowed you to do it over and over. I've still got a 150 Flick that I tuned back to full stability, after it got beat too flippy to depend on - and it's an absolute meat hook, but it won't tune back flippy... Also, not sure if it matters (I don't throw overhand), but all the guys I saw getting sick distance with those were throwing thumbers, not tomahawks.
hm, maybe in my next video with the epic i’ll take a look at tuning other discs and also try it on the thumber line! thanks for the tips!
Thumber is the only way I throw that disc. I still can't throw with two fingers in the rim for forehands. I started with just my index finger, like skipping a rock on water, and now can't change it. Lol
Killed it man 🔥 Can’t wait to see what you make next!
THANKS!!!! I really appreciate it, aspiring to get to your level 🫡
Yeah Trash Panda! Love that you're here!
Reserect that mold @trashpandadiscgolf
I had a buddy with that disc back in the day (20+ years ago) I used it and got my first ace😂
This is one of the most informative, well edited, well formatted video if not the best, keep up the good work man, love this content for dg!!
Here in Michigan, disc golf gets very very competitive, especially among the zoomers who aren't obsessed with technology, they destroy everyone in the woods. And it's fantastic.
This is the greatest disc golf disc review CZcams video out here!! Very well put together, amazing! Great editing with the music to match the suspense. Very entertaining, kept my attention.
ngl, this video was in my suggested, watched it all the way thru, and was sad that there are no other videos yet! would love more of these!
After watching this I had to check out your channel. Really enjoyed all your shorts. Coming from an avid (perhaps somewhat obsessive) consumer of dg content, I'm going to sub because this is a really great video and your edit is awesome! Keep it up and looking forward to more!
thank you so much!! that means a ton! more content coming soon!👀
Your one full length video. I am crushed! I need more of this.
I have never played discgolf and probably never will, but your content just catches me, subbed!
Woah I was actually bummed that you only had 1 video! I loved this! Keep it up man. I'll be turning on notifications waiting for your next video.
I didn't even know Disc Golf was a sport that existed prior to watching this video but that was a fun watch
Yep, one of my furthest throws was with an Aerobie Epic thumber. 500 ft is definitely feasible. I found that a slight headwind helped flip it faster to get it to plain out and soar.
i need to go back out when there is more wind
Awesome video, especially for your first. Can’t wait to see what’s next!
thank you! new vid coming soon 👀
this was a absolutely amazing video! Great work!
thanks!!!
I just recently took this disc out of my bag. I started playing in the Portland, OR area and this is the perfect disc to thumb through heavy brush if your stuck. Now living in Boise, the fairways are more open but accuracy counts for OB's. Still a fun disc to bring out and show people every now and then. They can't believe it's PDGA approved. 😂
Great content man! Keep it up, might see you on the dfw courses sometime.
Great content, good editing. Promising channel you got there my fellow shanker 😉
HA thank you - i will make sure to shank less moving forward
This gives off the same feel as wirtual, and I was very surprised to see it as your only full length video, keep it up my dude
What a crazy disc. Thanks for sharing this content!
it was a trippy disc for sure!!
Was at that park this past Sunday! Nice to see local disc golfers making content!
Turner is a beast!
I used to have one, it worked pretty good, that's insane how expensive they are now
I got one for $60US brand new in packaging last year. Still haven't thrown it because my local course has too many trees and I have heard it is very brittle.
Never watched disk golf before great video you made it really accessible to new ppl love the content
same, really interesting stuff
I threw one of those a while back & was taught to throw a Thumber with the Epic. Others should try throwing it too, that thing is fun and so are the other Aerobie toys.
It was so fun to try! I might need to make videos about the other aerobie toys tbh!
you need make more videos, this channel is so good
Love the videos man keep em coming.
will do 🫡
Awesome vid!! That’s my home course btw! Pretty underrated tbh.
turner is SO underrated !!!
Fantastic edit! Keep up the great work!
thanks so much!
@@jmillydg yeah, man! what do you use to edit? Davinci? Premier?
I use Davinci!
@@jmillydg yes!! It's the best!
Great editing and sound design, making for compelling video worth actually watching.
thanks so much! i really appreciate it!
this is like Ryan Trahan level editing/entertainment skills... idc much for disc golf but i subscribed cuz u deserve to be with the big names
W mr. miller‼️‼️‼️‼️ can’t wait to see the next one
It's best to throw it with a thumber! I have gotten it to 500+ that way! I also played baseball in college so that helps my cause.
barely got into disc golf shit is lit. luv the content, cheers from austin🗣️
lol that first one you missed out on buying was mine that I sold! to bad you didn't get it. I would have loved to see you throw it! keep up the good content!
that’s hilarious! so funny that this video found you!
I have an epic in the stash. Haven’t picked it up in 15 years. It is so extremely over stable, I could never imagine what to do with it. This video was more fun than I ever had with the epic.
If you are looking to sell it, it’s my favorite disc and I have thrown it so much so fast into so many things over my decade playing, I have been looking for a suitable replacement. If you would possibly consider selling it to someone who would absolutely love the opportunity to use it and would absolutely use it, please let me know!
I got a epic in my bag. Its flips over and glides best in a headwind for me. It also works better for me when i throw thumber. Great video though man.
I need to try it again with a better wind as well as on a thumber!
lol i have one of these in my bag. when I was in high school my dad found them and bought us each one to try out for fun. We never tried the overhand tomahawk throw!
Had to subscribe. Incredible video
THANK YOU!! let me know what you want to see next 😈
I know nothing about this sport/game.. But I enjoy it.. Thank You ❤️
If this wasn't OOP I would most definitely buy one. Keep on making videos man, I absolutely LOVE them
Awesome video bro!
now THIS is the disc golf content we need
Looks like good fun. I’ve heard of this sport but never seen it etc.. it must suck trying to find it again..
Dude is an absolute beast with the camera and the discs
😈😈😈
I love my epic, I found mine on a course one day a long time ago and it had no name. It’s one of the most fun discs in my bag for sure. I rarely ever use it but when I for my friend tells me I need to tee off with that and nothing else 😂
Awesome video! This guy kills it
Thanks T!!!
Agree. Funny as well!
I remember having one of these back in the day. I think I found it in the woods in 2005. Hated it lol
Please keep making videos this is so good
Subbed. Fellow MFFL/Cowboys fan/ disc golfer/ DFW native. Looking forward to more content
Let’s go!!! Best support I can have!
Cool video! Curious for what you come up with next
thanks!
Love your vids❤
Why does this content feel like disc golf version of Ryan Trahan!😂😂 5:07
that is the best compliment you could’ve ever given me
that is actually exactly on point
Dude your video quality? You deserve the 1 mil soon
This is awesome, long form content ftw
That was so exciting man damn lol
I'm going out to play with one of these today, my friend has one in her stash. I'm hoping this disc is a game-changer for me as a lefty.
love this idea man cool vid.
thank you sir
Dang... This is a really good video! Keep it up! The Epic is such an interesting and fun disc 😂
thanks man! it was a weird disc to use for sure lol
I’m new to this all still but I’m trying to get better with the tomahawk throw. I’m a lefty so do I still want an understable disc?
W vid! Keep it up!
I met a guy who bagged a bunch of them, and he mainly threw overhead shots. He swore the yellow ones went the farthest.
I still bag one for when I need to escape certain situations.
that’s awesome!!! i wish i had a yellow one
Never thought I'd get in disc golf CZcams but I'm very glad I did
Start of a legend
get in at the ground level 🫡
I have one. I think I just got it at some pro shop for cheap a long time ago and never really ended up throwing it. I still have it and now want to give it another shot.
Dude! Definitely try it out again, let me know how far you get it on an overhand!
Great video
Great vid
I watched the part 2 from a youtube short, welcome to my ted talk
I have had one in my closet for literally 20 years. Just found out it has this crazy mystique around it.
The dude who threw it 500 threw it off a mountain/hill …you got it 400 almost flat I’d say you got it
Just got into disc golf a couple weeks ago and I had found this disc in a bush pretty soon after, didn’t realize it was so expensive and interesting lol
It's not expensive. The reason the disc he was looking for was pricey is because it was rare. New Discs range from $7 to $25. You only need a 3 discs to start, a Putter, Mid-Range and Driver.
Hey random question - is that your microphone that you have pinned to your hat there? If so, can you tell me what kind of microphone that is? Great audio quality for the capture angle
It is! I use the DJI Mic!
I had 2 Epics, wish i still had them. Try throwing a thumber instead of a tomahawk, the angle is more natural for overhand throw and you can get more power. Ive thrown 450+ with a thumber. 500 is achievable for you
I remember when this came out!!! So wild!!!!
have you ever tried it?
@@jmillydg I threw it once. Someone at my local course was throwing one. It's pretty wild. I'd kinda forgotten until I saw your vid's thumbnail 🤣
Best disc golf creator on CZcams🔥
that’s the goal🫣
Great video especially for someone so young
I think the absolute legend threw that thing down a canyon = 500+ feet
That was epic
I didnt care about disc golf before i watched this video, now i im ready to sink my life into it. THROW THING FAR
Yo me and my buds thought 100 ft was far. Great stuff
Need more long video content this was very entertaining to watch
i was shocked just by the short how high the production quality was for your firs full video
Dude there are some many great things about this video and your channel in general
I hope you have many years on disc golf or just on youtube because your content is amazing
If you ever have some time I would love to talk for a while, i’m trying to start a good youtube channel but am struggling with some things, i would appreciate the help
Can’t wait to see more content
THANKS SO MUCH - THIS WAS SUCH A GREAT COMMENT!!!
dm me on insta your questions! @ohmygosh_itsjosh
@@jmillydg Will do!!
could take a couple days just so i can hit you with most of em at the same time
thank you!!!
I still have one. We sold them at sport chalet back in the day
This was great content
thank you !!!
This your first video?? You’re a natural 👏 Thoroughly entertaining!
Also, damn bro you’re handsome. Try out modeling yet? 😅😎
thanks for the hype!! not a model though lol
@@jmillydg lol well you’ve got yourself a new subscriber! I’m looking forward to many more sweet vids 🤙
Reminds me more of a boomerang than it does of a disc tbh
The shorts pulled me in but now you’re dropping the full length videos, you’re killing it 🔥 please do not stop!
DUDE thanks - don’t worry, i’ll keep putting out the heat 🔥🔥🔥
I actually have one of these in red. No idea it could do all that.
I don't even play this sport, BUT
Haha, round thing go vroom
Only disc golf creator on CZcams worth watching.
Really cool stuff! Could use some music in quieter sections.
You got me
Me over here be like
I like your funny words magic man
tuning works on my dad's old aerobie pro
Bro if you would have asked I would have given you mine for free 😂 great to see you do long form content🎉
👀👀👀 you still got it???
@@jmillydg lmfao 😂😂😂
@@jmillydg Nope gave it to a friend but i could probably get it back.
I saw one at a thrift for $1 and I was confused thought it was a defective disc.
MAN, i totally would have bought that one
your assistant is so pretty!
i agree!
I assume you're the assistant? 🤣😂🤣😂
