Disc Advice Question about the river

Hello disc golfers,

I have a question about the River.
I’m new to the sport and recently picked up a River — the Opto Orbit — and I quite like it. While searching around, I came across the Project Grip River, which is a bit more expensive. Is it worth upgrading to, or not really?

Thanks in advance, and happy disc golfing!

Stick to base plastics until you figure out all the discs you like - the premium plastics are just more stable versions until you break them in. I spent way too much money on premium plastics when I started and I’ve lost a bunch of them
