I believe they may be comparable to the firmer Champion, but are definitely more stable than the softer Champion. If you are looking for more stable, you should probably stay with firmer and heavier Champion and Star.

I have never seen 150 class I Dyed discs. Do you ever make them? And I ask sometime last winter about glow or UV mini's for custom stamping, have not seen them yet. Did you produce any?
Thanks

We rarely make 150 I Dyed. Very little demand. We do have both UV and glow minis for custom stamping.

There are many people that do custom dyes if you have the want. There is some amazing work being done up in the northwest, check it out.

Dave,

Any idea when the Champion Katanas will be put into normal production? I really like the ones I have and I'm not as interested in pro or star. Thanks.

I don't know the year precisely, but it was about 1990.

Yeah, Prado is great news and hopefully will lead to more courses going into San Bernardino County parks. The course was already delivered, but I am not sure when it will be set up. Probably after it rains all next week.

Hey whats the difference in the plastic of the Pro Pig and The Pro Aviar because I love the feel of the Pro pig because of the grip. And if there is a difference what chance is there that you are going to make a grippier Pro aviar thats not R pro.

The chances are good. We just got done testing a very firm but grippy material in the Dart. We will test the same stuff soon in an Aviar. The newest runs of Star Aviars are grippier, and a little softer than the older Star.

Dave- Whats the raw materials in the making of disc's? Can old discs be recyled or plastic bottles? I met you at the past Worlds I was the spotter at #4 in Blue Valley all week you had the closest shot at a deuce when hit the chains and it spit it out to the right but it was the best shot of the week there.

ChrisEads · Dec 06 2009, 01:41 PM

why were pro xcals never made

The raw materials are varied, but come from two basic plastic types. The original plastic was polyethylene. This has branched out to include several other types of olefinic plastic which includes, and is miscible with polyethylene.

The other main basic type is urethane.

Yes, plastic can be recycled, and we do it with bad parts all the time. The problem with recycling is that it has to be transported and separated by plastic type and color. After this, it has to be blended and repelletized to make new parts. All of this takes money and time, but it can be done.

Don't know right now. It would either be that we didn't think it would make a good product, or we just didn't think of doing it.

I went to my local pro shop today looking for eco teebirds and realized I was mistaken on the release date. I settled for a star katana. Having spent the weekend in 30 degree weather and 20 mph winds I didn't have it in me to go throw it. The plastic feels good, decent dome and pretty firm. Looking forward to some test drives. Anyone else throw them yet?

discette · Dec 08 2009, 10:21 AM

Echo Star Teebirds are not yet available to retailers. At this point in time, they are only available for custom stamping.

Where? I asked about them late last week at East and they said no.

Furthur · Dec 08 2009, 01:02 PM

Dave, are Discmania discs available for custom stamping?

flynvegas · Dec 08 2009, 01:06 PM

I've had MD1's and P2's made with custom stamps. I worked with Mark at DGV.

R-Pro Rhynos are scheduled to run on a regular basis. I believe the next run is coming up in the next month.

Keep 'em stiff!

What's the deal with the clear glow destroyers for japan? What is different about them? They look pretty sweet.
