The avante garde 2, if that is what you are referring to, is a love hate throw. The crazy inside cut will make it a bit weird at first, but really grows on you When I first got it at the mystery box, after playing for 10 minutes I was ready to give up. After giving it another shot, it’s an amazing stable throw. It takes a while to throw it straight. I do not recommend it for a first metal, or even a comp throw. I do recommend if you want to try something different, and want some change and have some fun. You can get them so cheap since almost everyone hates it! Good luck! ---

Both are great throws it all just comes down to preference really. ---

Actually the avant garde has dropped incredibly because of the amount of them in the mystery box. So the range for about $50-75 now a days. But I love my avant garde very much and gives very nice sleep time and very stable ---

No answer to your question, sorry… just wanted to clear up some of the information about the Avant Garde as it appears in this thread: The original-- not the 2-- appeared in the mystery box. As xxjohnsonxx states, it’s fairly readily available for not much dough. The original is NOT widely debated as a love/hate throw the way the 2 is. Most people thought it was a great throw. I never tried a 2, but I think the original is absolutely phenomenal. But that doesn’t matter because I can’t compare it to the Super G, which is the kind of response you’re looking for. :wink: ---

The avant garde 2 is a weird throw , its good but weird. I threw joe wilson’s and it was smooth played nice and stable and had a better grind surface due to it having a more inner extending hub. I realy don’t know what all the negativity about it is. Its like the underdog twin of the cliff. ---

I’d say the Super G.
