Well they need to make up for building the worst hyper ever.

You kidding? One of the better "mainstream" flats out there. Not counting the weird oddball ones in German fairs that are OMFG. I love Maxair at CP. Swinging @ 70mph you feel some serious G's at the bottom of the full swing.

I can't stand giant frisbees lol. Of course, I'm a pussy when it comes to spinning, so that might be the reason. Oddly enough, though, I'm perfectly fine on Windseeker [dunno]

Smaller frisbees and their KMG counterparts are better than the giants, but this definitely isn't bad.

Yeah, this is a pretty good addition. The one at CP disoriented me pretty good. Still prefer the smaller ones as well, but these are still awesome.

The really good ones seat you inwards and to my knowledge, because of the way the forces when spinning are applied, they spin much, much faster. The ones seating you outwards dont spin nearly as fast but the speed and g's make up for that.

Screamin Swings do the speed and Gs better IMO, these are all about the spinning.

The spinning adds another dimention to the how the forces are applied every swing. The Screamin Swings are more a 2 dimentional version and don't offer the same randomness.

Maxair was definetely one of the better flats I've ridden. That won't be a bad addition at all.
