Thanks Dave. His came out of a Roc x-out box from the East Coast I think. It actually has the Pebble sticker on the bottom. It had a really high dome for a Classic, and was very light. I would like to get some, we got alot of people into overalls and that stuff here.

Our most often used MTA disc was a light Lynx or light domey Condor. Also regular light weight rocs are about 113gms. The Pebble was very good if you could throw a clean technique back door style. I did and set a Masters record with it (since broken by Jim Herrick)

Thanks Dave, I appreciate the insight and will pass the info on..

Dave,

how come you only post on this site? It seems like you are reaching a very limited number of people. DGCR and DGR are hugely more popular and have all the non-tourny forum hounds on them. i know that they would really appreciate it if they didnt have to be members to ask you questions on a forum board and kep your email a lil more empty.

I started on this forum when it was open and more popular. Just continued. I also answer questions through askdave@innovadiscs.com. I have tried to keep up with the other forums, but it is a little too much with my other duties.

AWSmith · Jul 23 2011, 12:27 AM

i can definitely see that. the other forums are super busy

are any of the current aviars (including the Omegas and Discmania lines) in the old san marino mold? if not, would the factory store be able to run them?

Both of the old San Marino molds are still being used but have had some work done on them to keep them running. I don't think the engraving is still the same.

AWSmith · Jul 23 2011, 01:53 PM

^^^which aviars would be in that mold then? arent the P&As in the classic mold now?

Yes, P&As are in the Classic mold, but it is not the original Classic. It has been remade. Some of the old parts wore out.

AWSmith · Jul 23 2011, 07:55 PM

cool thank you

Honor Guard · Jul 23 2011, 08:59 PM

dave, has there been any talk on valarie jenkins having a signature disc out? it would just seem natural with all her championships and victories i would think. no offense to jay reading but it seems like val would have been the next to have something with her name on it.

also, does will shusterick have a signature disc in the works?

thanks.

I would rather not discuss signature discs as there tends to be a lot of upset when one player gets one and others don't.

What about Jay Readings Wife? I basically begged ( along with others ) for Des to get her sig disc after 3 World Championships. Heres the truth nobody wants to talk about.....

.....discs with Womens names on them dont sell as well. This may be more my opinion than proven fact, and I mean no offense, but after close to 10 years selling plastic it may as well be fact. Most people buying discs are rec players, most are men, and they honestly think that its a girls disc. Ive been through it about 5k times. Also, to help my arguement, sales of Champion Valks have probably doubled for us since Julianas name isnt on there anymore, and Star Valks also have went up the last few years since Sandstroms name started showing up. Just saying.

Again, I mean no offense. I think they all deserve it and should have it.

warlocks00 · Jul 26 2011, 04:37 PM

You know, I have noticed some pickup in sells of Valks recently....never really thought about it being because of the name on it.

Just to play devils advocate....I do sell a lot of JK aviars.

JenniferB · Aug 06 2011, 12:55 AM

Dear Dave,

May we ask for yet another update on the Innova factory store?

Also, does Innova have any kind of written policy or standard practice regarding people custom stamping or dyeing and selling Innova discs?

Thank-you,
jenb

Mayumoogy · Aug 15 2011, 12:47 PM

Why is it that the Eagle L doesn't have its own spot on the Innova website. There are specs for the TL, SL, but no EL? They also aren't labeled as an EL on the actual disc. Whats up? Also has there ever been an attempt at other -L discs. Will we ever see a Leopard-L or something?

I was told that the Store was ready to open. Not sure why it isn't, if it isn't. We have a standard practice of reserving the right to refuse to stamp something we feel is inappropriate. We rarely sell unhotstamped discs for dying or hotstamping and when we do, we reserve the same rights. Controlling third parties from removing and restamping or dying discs, is much more difficult.

There wasn't enough demand for Eagle Ls, so they will be relegated to small quantities available in the Factory Store, when we can get to them. I doubt that we will make any more discs called L. A Leopard is an L type disc.

BillyAce · Aug 16 2011, 01:14 AM

When will the online store for the "factory store" be open? I am ready to purchase some great discs?

Dave,

Do you mean to say that the TL will be going out of production?

Thanks

We will continue with the TL and SL, and possibly the FL, but no new L
additions.

So what's the scoop on the TeeDevil? Did the DevilHawk escape from it's cage and copulate with a Teebird?? The name makes me think PD (longer with Teebird like characteristics.)

Can't wait to see one!... unless it's a Vulcan/Detroyer then I can wait

sprdgr · Aug 18 2011, 10:55 AM

What would the flight numbers be on the TeeDevil and possible release date?

Tbart33 · Aug 18 2011, 01:20 PM

I got a lucky pickup in a used bin at a local course. The disc is a white first run champion spider. Broken in but still in good shape. I'm just wondering if you have any idea what its worth. I've heard estimates from $40 to $80.

Still too early for a release date. We have preliminary numbers at `12,5,-2,2,
which makes it sound like a Wahoo, but it is much more high speed stable than that. It is not as high speed stable as a Destroyer, but it is closer to a Destroyer than a Wahoo.

Champion TeeDevils should be available for fundraisers soon, but the release will be Star probably late this year.

Sorry, no clue.

With mini Proto Star stamp I assume? Depending on the condition, eBay wise - probably $25-$30 tops.

Thanks for the info. So, a fast Archon maybe?
