The first is the hyzer flip, which if done correctly will give an S curve flight. The other is the flex shot, which is an anhyzer release that also makes the disc fly with an S curve flight."

Playing disc golf in the winter - Minneapolis Disc Golf | Examiner.com

For many of you, winter is the nice time to play, when the nasty heat and humidity does not make it hard to just breathe. If you were going to pick the optimum conditions to play disc golf, it would likely be around 65 degrees and calm, low humidity and no bugs. Those conditions don’t exist for very long in most places, so we must adapt."
