Hey folks! Not trying to pick any fights, just wondered what everyone’s impression was? I figure enough times passed since the recent D bearing release to see what people think?
Original C bearing release on the left, newer D bearing release on the right.
I’ve not played both, but I’ve played the D bearing on and off, and just bought a NickleD. I wonder how the weight would feel compared with a C bearing. I really like the D bearing.
Haven’t played any Firecrackers, though I know it was based off of the Stainless Steel Quiz, which was a C Bearing. Once I got rid of the shield bearing and put in a Concave it’s been a great player.
Me? Well, I’m gonna have to go against the grain. I know everyone loves the D bearing release. I do as well! It’s a killer throw.
Maybe im just an old fart, but I prefer the og. Just an awful lot smoother. This could be just my particular throw and not the design, so it’s not definitive whatsoever.
I have both and prefer the snappiness of the new d bearing. That being said, I only ordered the new release because the original c bearing is such an awesome throw!
