The man, the myth, the legend: Ken Climo. 12x world champion. And this is the type of Aviar he uses? No way!

Phoenix Line Wei
Straight and slightly understable.
Wei
GStar Tern
Get easy distance. I’m curious if these will be as understable as their Star counterparts in comparison to the Champion Terns…but they are a variation of Star….so I’m guessing that yes, they will be.

GStar Beast
What is the difference? I’ll let Innova handle that one…

Will Beasts only be produced with the new “old mold”? The answer is yes.
Here is the whole story which should answer all of your other concerns.
The
Beast was created in late 2002. After Barry Schultz won his second
world championship in 2004, Dave Dunipace made a slight change to the
Beast mold to make it a little less high speed stable than the original.
He felt the original Beast was too similar to the Orc. Since the
original mold was retooled, we have only able to produce the new
retooled Beast.
In 2014, problems arose with the Beast. Malfunctioning mold parts could
no longer be used and were retired. We ordered new Beast parts from our
mold making company. They mistakenly produced the Beast from the
original disc specifications and not from the updated 2004
specifications. So now we have a new “old mold” Beast. Barry Schultz was
very happy about it as he got his beloved original Beast back.
Since
we can no longer make the Beast with the faulty retooled parts, every
Beast going forward will be made with the new “old mold”. It is possible
some retailers will continue to have older Beasts in stock until they
sell out.
The flight numbers on the Beast will remain unchanged as they accurately
reflect the flight of the current version of the Beast. Collectors will
be able tell an original old mold from the new old mold as the new mold
does not have patent numbers. The only way to tell the difference
between the retooled mold and the new “old mold” Beasts is by the shape
of the rim. Most Beast throwers and savvy collectors are already aware
of these facts. Again, all Beasts going forward will be made in the new
“old mold”.
Beast
GStar Boss
One of the 1st discs with the maximum wing width of 2.5 cm wing width, blazing the trail — and clearing airspace — for many many more. GStar is slightly more understable than the champion or star counterparts.
Boss
Dragon Line Yao
A stable mid range that will have some fade at the end of its flight. The Dragon Line is a durable and translucent blend of plastic that I would equate to that of Discarft’s Z and Innova’s Champion. As it was stated earlier..YAOWZA!
Yao
DX Teebird
When the Teebird appeared in 2001, as an Eagle with more glide, it was one of the farthest flying discs. Like all best-selling models, it’s now made in a number of plastic mixutres — DX, Champion, Star & Echo Star — and enjoys a wide following.
Now relegated to control driver status by all the faster discs that have since appeared, the Teebird remains one of the most frequently recommended discs in our pro shop. Also available in 150 Class.

DX Beast
This is the less high speed stable version. For the full story, read on!

Discraft Ultrastar
Stop playing ultimate with those free prize frisbees and empty pie tins. The Ultrastar is a high quality disc for ultimate players everywhere, whether it be professionals on a championship or friends in a backyard.
Fun fact: this disc was inducted into the Ultimate Hall of Fame along with its creator, Jim Kenner, in 2011.
Blizzard Wraith
This might not actually be a new stamp. Maybe they just put a blizzard stamp over a new stamp Champion Wraith? Only time will tell.
