info on the sweden page is incorrect- they are made of se plastic and did come out prior to the kc whippets. they are massively overstable. i have 2-3 of them somewhere but will have to dig to find them and may not get that done this week as i have an event to run this weekend.

I think I have one of those as well. Its going into the next wave of discs online.

Its either that or a CE Whippet-X. It feels like CE or a KC/CE blend moreso than a KC Whippet-X. Lots of flashing.

Im not sure, it has a custom stamp on it of some cat that looks like Garfield and the name of a certain course. I think Oak Park or something.

johnbiscoe · Oct 20 2009, 10:42 AM

i'm pretty sure there were no custom stamps done on those discs- also, they are the old whippet mold, not the new one or the whippet x.

I know, Ive asked alot of questions about it and get no answers...ever. I cant explain it, I just have it. Ill try to get a picture posted or get it into the inventory. It has:

A cat or something running away from a basket that is getting hit in the back by a drive thrown by a cartoony player. It says Curley Discs on it and the basket is an Innova basket that has Innova #1 on the band. Its terrible artwork.

There were a few custom stamps made on the KC 7 and 8 time discs. The Pittsburgh FLying Disc Open was lucky enough to have a few custom stamped KC Gazelles back in the late 90's. I believe we may have had some whippets also? But I know they are very rare and hard to find these days.

I haven't seen any other KC Gazelles pop up over the years with a custom stamp other than ours, but I am sure there are a few more out there.

johnbiscoe · Oct 20 2009, 11:40 AM

there were some of the kc gazelles with bayville/ace run stamps too. i've got one in a box somewhere.

20460chase · Oct 20 2009, 12:48 PM

OAK GROVE is the name of the course on the disc. Im sending a photo to MDR so he can post it. If anyone can tell me about it, please do so.

Sorry about that didn't even know these where out there thats pretty sick.

On a side note any one throw the new glows? How do they compare to the 1st run Champs. The KCs weren't as stable as I wanted so I dug and found a Champ 1st run as it's a pig the way I wanted. Just wanna know if the glow is nearly as overstable or more like the KCs

veganray · Oct 21 2009, 09:53 AM

VERY domey & not as overstable as circle-stamped Champion WXs. More like KCs.

two5twosix9 · Oct 21 2009, 05:44 PM

Yeah, I didn't like the glows at all for what I expected them to be.
