    Fourth Circle's Taipan is a fast, overstable driver similar to an Ape. Very fast and fairly overstable without being a completely glideless brick. This driver has a good dome and actually will hold a straight line for a good distance before fading out. I was able to rip on this thing into headwinds as hard as I could without fear of flipping it. The Taipan fights headwinds very well and seems to slice through them easily.

    Fourth Circle's Ultra plastic is good stuff. Very much like ESP or star, but smoother, shiny, and very slightly gummy. 

    The Taipan is not a driver for beginners or short throwers. Its a very fast, glidey, overstable bomber. It fights headwinds and is very power hungry. My top distance with this driver was about 400', but bigger arms would smash it.

    I've never heard of this company, but I recommend this driver. It flies true to the numbers and is made of very nice plastic. A great overstable speed 13 driver.

    I had fun giving the Taipan some test throws. Once I realized that this driver was going to be massively overstable, I had fun using it as a utility driver. Once the Taipan goes into its fade, it drops almost vertical to the ground and dives. I couple of times when I threw it in an open field, it faded so hard and steep that when it hit the ground it rolled for several more feet in the fade direction. This is perfect for big, steep hyzer throws and sharp fades around obstacles. It is nice and flat, so it would work great for side-arm throwers who want an overstable driver to cut back during flight. I didn't have windy conditions in which to test this disc, but I'm certain it would be a serious headwind fighter. 

    NOT recommended for beginners. They'd be pretty discouraged by the immediate fade if they can't throw with power. It is a wide rim (high speed) driver too, which again makes it less friendly to new players.
