    This disc a wild one for sure. Given the high speed and the turn I would say this wouldn't be a great disc for beginners. It hasn't really found a place in my bag yet due to the uniqueness. The biggest standout is the Groove-like rim that may turn some people off. The underside of the rim itself, as opposed to being straight, is super concave. 

    The best part of this disc for me is the plastic. Considering this is the only Daredevil disc I own, I'm love the Flex Performance plastic. Kind of like Champion plastic with Gstar flexibility, and super grippy. 

    I may check out more Daredevil discs for this reason but otherwise the Yeti itself is so so.

    174g Flex Performance.  Cool looking disc.  Great plastic.  Great quality.  This disc has a funny feeling in my hand (the underside of the rim is a little concave and the edge feels sharper than other discs), but it's hard to argue with anything else.  I don't get as much high speed turn as it advertises, but I still get good distance out of this disc.  I don't get the same consistency as I do with my Gateway Apex, but that might simply be a matter of familiarity and confidence.  If you haven't tried a Daredevil disc, I really like all the ones that I own (Yeti, Swift Fox, and Timberwolf).  They seem to take abuse well and perform well.

    Starting to flirt with some 13 speed discs, and was looking for something that would keep going right (RHBH) longer than my Shryke, and this definitely fits the bill.  Shryke was my previous farthest thrown disc, second shot with the Yeti and I outdrove it by about 20'.  Threw it even farther on the next hole, though I didn't compare it with anything.  Didn't need to, it was parked.  Needless to say it was an instant addition to the bag.  It is definitely pretty flippy, so it either needs enough room to work, or the perfect route through the trees, but it's a delight to watch fly.  One of those discs that feels like it just wants to keep pushing forward. 

    Numbers are pretty right on.  Thrown flat it will smoothly turn to the right and then flex back to end up right on to just a bit to the right of the target.  Put it on a hyzer and it will flip up to flat and just glide straight for a long time before fading gently off to the left.  Force it over, it will just keep sailing right, and eventually forward if given enough air.  Admittedly I don't have the most amazing arm, so if you're throwing over 400' this may be too touchy for you.  Also I threw on a cold, perfectly calm day, so I don't know how this handles in the wind (my instinct tells me it would be unreliable), and warm weather would likely exaggerate its characteristics a bit more.  

    Also really love the feel of the Flex plastic, feels pretty similar to Discraft's flex line, maybe even bendier.  Bottom line, if you're an intermediate player looking to get some more distance, and you're looking for an introductory high speed disc that will still give you some options in shaping shots, check out a Yeti.

    Edit:  Had to take this down a couple of stars after taking it and two of its sister discs, the Sasquatch and the Bigfoot, out for a spin on a windy day, and sorry to report, suspicions confirmed, all three are completely unreliable in wind.  Okay, not completely, all did fine with a tailwind, but anything else turned these into paper plates.  The Yeti suddenly became an unintentional roller, and that was just luck.  The Bigfoot... I've never even seen this before, but it actually managed to completely turn over upside down, landing on its top from a flat, low throw.  I'm guessing the unique rim on these discs is largely to blame for this.  I know the differences between discs can be tiny, but I put all three of these discs next to each other on a table, got eye-level, and I honestly think these three discs are the same mold, just with different plastics.  I don't want to knock it too much, it's a really great disc in the right conditions, it's just that those conditions seem to be nothing more than a light breeze.

    One of my absolute favorite drivers! I'm able to rip it through long tunnels on a bee line very well. I also love the flex and the durability of the plastic. I do think it is a little less understable than its numbers suggest, though. This is my first disc from Daredevil, but I would love to try their other products!

    This disc has a unique rim. I got it to replace my vulcan and I couldn't be happier with my decision. The rim is concave underneath and is pretty big. When I grip my drivers I only used my index and middle fingers so I can get more speed and it works well for me. I mention this because of this rim a beginner might have a problem with it. The disc does exactly what it's numbers say. Additionally, the first time I used this disc I missed two hole in ones by 4 to 6 feet. This disc has alot of glide must be from that rim.
