I think these all would have a similar turn initially. Both the DX discs might be a tad more high speed stable brand new, but would catch the Ch Roadrunner after a bit of use. Of course, with more use the DX discs would continue to turn more and more.

On Chase's topic, I would like to see more Champ and Star plastic stamped with the respective DX stamp. Especially the the old Teebird stamp that looks like Sam the Eagle?

Yeah I am also all about DX stamps on Clear champion or any Star Plastic..
The Dyed Rhynos that I saw at worlds last year were amazing and I would love a DX Gremlin Stamped STar Gremlin

I am not sure where these came from. Sometimes they are X outs, but otherwise, I don't know.

I've seen lots of Champ Rhynos with the DX stamp around Michigan that are not X-outs. Most are dyed.

I've seen a good number of these Rhynos -- both people using them and for sale. At the 2005 Worlds, we had at least a dozen when we were selling at Little Lehigh during the finals. The ones I've seen haven't been X-outs, and they've all been dyed.

They are dyed but the Champ Rhynos with a solid swirl color are stiff and more stable the others that are clear are not as stiff and as stable, at least I think so.

on the subject of stamps, i think the mini-star stamps rule. i'd like to see all candy discs made with them with the addition of the name of the disc above and/or below the ministar (or incorporated into the ministar, or repeated and encircling the mini-star).

my half cent ...

Dave,

Have you any information on the JK PRO Aviar-X (three time)?

Such as how many were made, if this was a special plastic, anything?

Yes, we occasionally run Jaguars up to 200 gms.

So Dave, regarding those mini-teebird mini's... Can I order some (50? 100?) printed with a design for my bachelor party/mini tournament in July? Should I get on the phone with someone? I've never ordered custom anything from Innova before, so what's the first step?

You can call the East or West Coast depending on where you live. The link below gives info and phone numbers. There is a few weeks lead time, especially this time of year.

I am not sure how big the runs were, but I would guess a minimum of 5000. The plastic has always been a special tough/soft/grippy plastic, but if you mean different from now, I am not sure. It could have had constituent ingredients from a different manufacturer than we use now, but it is basically the same stuff. We now use one extra ingredient to mitigate against the flight plate sink that sometimes happens with putters.

3x: soft with a certain rigidity in the softness
4x (1st run) too stiff not really a JK Aviar
4x (2nd run) very soft and floppy (more so than 3x's)
5x not quite so floppy as above but a little more so than 3x's

ymmv

My experience is a bit different. My 3x's are hyper-soft & floppy with a little bit of texture, while 4x's & 5x's are smoother & stiffer. Except, of course, for my 150g 4x, which is melt-in-your-mouth rubber.

Does anyone have a phone number for Innova East (that is NOT a 1-800 number)?

A friend of mine needs to place an order, but is out of the country right now. As such, the 1-800 exchange will not work for the international call. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Sorry, I don't remember anything paticularly domey or flat. The Marshall Street guys can probably give you more information.
