Ask Dave Dunipace About Innova Discs - Page 48

Mar 31 2004, 02:47 PM

I myeslf like as little as possible on my discs! I love the designs on Discraft Z and on the older Gateway Evo plastic. Its not like we don't know what disc we are throwing lol. Just a small stamp that says innova and a small stamp that says TeeBird or something would be great. If it was on the rim of the disc it would be even better.

jaymo · Mar 31 2004, 02:56 PM

Yeah I too like the minimalist approach to stamping discs, I like the Z-line discraft stamps.... But really all that matters to me is the disc, the plastic and the weight, I couldn't really care less about the stamp. just my 2 cents.

dannyreeves · Mar 31 2004, 02:57 PM

If you dont like the stamp, then spend $5 and get a big bottle of Acetone from Walmart and you are good to go.

davei · Mar 31 2004, 02:59 PM

jaymo, we are running a short trial run now. Should be available within a week or so in limited amounts. No time for a full run right now.

davei · Mar 31 2004, 03:01 PM

TBender that was not supposed to happen but chit does.

davei · Mar 31 2004, 03:04 PM

we are working on a different way to put art on the discs. Until we nail that down. The discs will remain the same. When we get the new technology working, we will do completely different art.

jaymo · Mar 31 2004, 03:05 PM

thanks dave.
my point about the stamp is that I really dont care. If people want big birds on their discs I'll still buy them, and Walmart sells straight acetone (what %age)?? or is it nail-polish remover?

I dont know the %age but it isn't nail polish remover. Go to the paint section. It does the trick easy.

dave have you got your haircut yet?

primetime · Mar 31 2004, 03:36 PM

Some artwork would be great. It would give the disc more character. I personally love the old Viper stampings which covered most of the disc. It still ranks as one of my favorite stamps.

Dave,
LET IT GROW

davei · Mar 31 2004, 05:15 PM

yes, it is getting hot.

Karma Police · Mar 31 2004, 07:30 PM

Dave,
I've asked you about this before. At the Innova site it lists that Glow Beasts and now Glow Monsters are 'available.' Any idea when these might be out for resale? Still haven't seen any on the web or elsewhere. Thanks!

sandalbagger · Mar 31 2004, 09:37 PM

the old viper stamp is a great one. I sure do miss the large Innova stamps. I'm not a big fan of how they changed the innova logo and shrunk the old stamps. Though...I remember back in 97 thinking that the old stamps were kind of ugly. Maybe that's why all I have left from the early days seem to be custom stamps?? But I would love to see some of the champion plastic stamped with the old large logos. Just 1 run....please. maybe for 2005 CE Rocs you could have the old large bird....and have it say USDGC inside the ring like Jaybird did way back when....lets see it

Mar 31 2004, 11:46 PM

yeah! i would much rather have something that makes each disc look different from the other. i think the new stamps are awfull and i remove them as soon as the disc goes in the bag. the old stamps without any logo just the picture and writing are my favorites and i would love to see them brought back out of retirement.

Dave et al:
Again, this is the wrong thread, but I have to tell everybody.
Got my first ace yesterday at Oak Grove #12 on my birthday!
I'm 59 (as of yesterday) and have been playing for 6 months, though I first played in 1976 but then had a 28 year layoff (long story).
I owe a lot to you, Dave, for your generous guidance in these forums.
Just to get vaguely back on the thread topic, I did it with a JK (red jelly plastic) Valkyrie, 150g. Dead straight with the ubiquitous short left fade at the end (RHBH), 280 feet to the pin.

P.S.
Are the SE Valkyries out there yet?

davei · Apr 01 2004, 06:38 AM

candyredplastic, sorry, I don't know about the glow. I don't even remember making any Beasts or Monsters in glow.

primetime · Apr 01 2004, 06:39 AM

Congratulations on the Ace Blarg!!

davei · Apr 01 2004, 06:44 AM

Thanks Blarg, congrats on your first ace. Always special. We have only done a test run of Pro (SE)Valks so far. They ran and flew well. We will produce them soon i hope.

Karma Police · Apr 01 2004, 08:21 AM

that's kind of what I figured. I'm sure they will show up eventually. Thanks again Dave!

What is the mistake: the TL on the back or the hotstamp on the front?

Thanks!

davei · Apr 01 2004, 02:07 PM

Cdale. Sorry, I don't know.

DiscGolfTool · Apr 01 2004, 04:24 PM

Are the 5x JK Aviars in stores yet?
Thanks,
Matt

jaymo · Apr 01 2004, 10:35 PM

Hey Dave, I read in the "innova Orc" post, that Innova is "out of Orcs" is this true? and is there another run in the works... Thats gotta be pretty awesome news eh? I dont know any numbers but is the Orc the hottest disc that Innova has right now, or what?

thanks again!

dannyreeves · Apr 01 2004, 10:36 PM

I smell an April fools joke.

Apr 02 2004, 12:26 AM

yep

jaymo · Apr 02 2004, 01:05 AM

**** April Fools, MAN am I gulable

ohhh well......

Apr 02 2004, 10:21 AM

I don't know Jaymo -- those Orcs have to be selling like hotcakes even if Innova's production is keeping up with demand. Dave, how well are Orcs selling compared to other hot discs?

Apr 02 2004, 05:15 PM

Dave-
I have a new CFR teebird TL with a stamp that says "Super Dave" and underneath, "Zonedriven". What is this in reference to, you? thanks
