> Hi everyone! New member here. Just created an account after lurking for a while, learned a lot so far. Fun hobby that I’m just getting into again after a long break. Is it often difficult to find good throws? I’d LOVE to find a Deep State! Or something similar that’s responsive. Any suggestions? I have the money, just can’t find anything. How do you guys search?

I’m getting the best of both worlds… A fixie’d Deep State (with my obligatory spikes) for February, digging this simple conversion!

Might be a pinch heavier but doesn’t phase me, willing to accept it if it means I can do pull starts 🙂

Not sure which thread we are posting in now🤣. I’ll just do both.  
I had a blue one that I gifted to a friend who loves it. I have a red one currently being shared in a Pay it Forward. I have my other red and my only Saturday Market and I love them all. I think if I could have 100…I would.

I remember buying my Saturday market deep state when I visited Oregon! I made mines for unresponsive play because despite its high walls, lightness, and not as much power, **I take it as a challenge**

I added two more Deep States and one more Deeper before I stopped collecting them. Most of them I bought new but many of my favorites I got in trade. I threw most of them every day. I had them set up with different bearings, side effects and strings to try to make them throw differently. I’m down to two now. A Saturday Market and green Cerakote.

Thats a good question Charlie. I didn’t change the gap or the response on any of them making my delusion of them throwing differently even more delusional. That said I always loved how they threw with Zipline Slushie on them.

I’m also wondering about this I know I have messed around with the bearing was just the silicone grease but I haven’t tried putting thicker pads or pouring my own.  
Was going to be my next step.

Also I saw your post yesterday yeah I’ve only played it with the ultralights

On one of my Deep State’s I removed the bearing shield and packed it completely full of silicon grease, and then replaced the shield. It was definitely not easy to get that C-clip back on again, but now I find the grease basically stays in there indefinitely and it’s mega responsive. That being said, it does not sleep that long anymore.
