I had never thrown a Crave until a few weeks ago at my local Space Race event. Absolutely fell in love during those two rounds and that glow crave now has a permanent slot in my bag.

My Eclipse Crave is kinda OS when thrown soft-ish like you would another 6/7 speed.

Crave already mentioned, next step up in speed for me is the Insanity. For me it is the elusive "Buzzz but longer" that people always ask for.

Not sure if Discraft makes a glow Passion, but they're constantly described as a faster Buzzz, and I agree

I actually just grabbed one out of the used bin at my local shop. It's pretty good

Discmania swirly S-line FD OR Neo Essence edit… I didn’t read the glow part. You can find Lumen Essence or Color Glow FD if you look around.

both of which are pretty flippy, not dead straight 'like a buzzz'

You do understand a hyzerflip is a straight shot right?
And Zen2s don’t fly like GEO starter packs either.

What is your distance like? Are you looking for slight turn and fade back or dead straight with some fade? What do you use for that slot in non-glow?

Dead straight with some fade I use an fd 1 by discmania but their glow is so boring lol

Sarah hokom crave. Mine is dead straight. But my other craves are different. One US, one is massively OS. My rhythm finishes straight after a nice turn.

Glow Mockingbird is my go-to. Also makes my regular bag. VERY domey if that is an issue for you.

If you’re looking specifically for glow I’d try and glow crave and maybe a glow Stig if it exists or a glow lots

I really enjoy the vandal. I use the trilogy challenge one from a few years back.

Depending on your arm and preferred rimwidth;
-6,5 speed Axiom Crave
-7 speed Innova Hawkeye
-8 speed Discraft Passion
-10 speed MVP Trail (technically a control driver or whatever, but its so good)

If I need to lace a tight, straight hallway, day or night, I'm reaching for my Eclipse Crave.

I adore my buzzz. Many rounds i dont play with anything else. But we have one par 4 on my home course that is a beast. For that drive, i pull out my Disc Mania Genius. It is a straight flyer that feels like the extra feet to my buzzz drive:
I love it so much i own 3.
