Ask Dave Dunipace About Innova Discs - Page 73

gokayaksteven · Aug 16 2004, 10:53 AM

yes--kc rocs w/o 11x stamp are newest.. hey dave--do you remember how light the pro orcs were molded in? any 150?

rob · Aug 16 2004, 11:04 AM

Dave, it was great finally getting to meet you. Thanks for signing my 20th aniversary Aviar. And thanks for answering all our questions and making the greatest discs!

davei · Aug 16 2004, 11:44 AM

chase, yes.

topdog · Aug 16 2004, 02:05 PM

Dave I have two Champion Orcs both the same weight. One is blue and the other is white. My blue one is more overstable than my white one. Is there a reason for this.

Aug 16 2004, 02:27 PM

hope the dx plastic turns out ok. I would hate for it to become to slick or turn out different discs. Is now a good time to ask for you guys to look for more kc plastic. If you guys could find enough it could actually become a whole line including drivers, which i believe would be quite the day.

davei · Aug 16 2004, 02:32 PM

topdog, there is a reason, but I don't know it. The most stable of the Champion Orcs were opaque blue. It seems as if different colors produce different results at different times. The more exotic the design (flatter and sharper), the more this happens.

davei · Aug 16 2004, 02:35 PM

intensa, the new dx mix is grippy and a little stiffer. The new stuff seems to take more abuse than the old.

mf100forever · Aug 16 2004, 02:50 PM

Topdog,
I´ve a red and a white both 173grams, the white is much more stable, I wouldn´t call the overstable though especially compared to the Champion Orcs, (oops wrong thread... maybe)!

williethekid · Aug 16 2004, 07:42 PM

Dave, I know the run of Pro TL's was postponed awhile back but I saw a couple on ebay just recently, are they out? If so where can I get some.

robj, the JK Aviars won't have an edition for the next run. They will just say JK Aviar. The same goes for the KC Rocs and KC Aviars.

Interesting. How soon do you think we'll see this next run of JK Aviar-x's?

davei · Aug 17 2004, 07:34 AM

willie, no they are not out yet. Don't know about the ones on EBay.

davei · Aug 17 2004, 07:35 AM

robj, not for a couple of months.

This thread is being started to answer the questions asked at the Innova Champion's Night held during the World Championships in Des Moines.

Due to the high demand for all the champion's signatures, plus the World's Bag Tag Drawing, there was not enough time to have the question and answer session with Dave, Harold, Sam, Tim and Jonathan.

The questions will be asked and answered here.

Thanks again to all those who attended, and especially to all the past and present champions who participated. All the champions played two rounds that day and most did not have a chance to get dinner before showing up.

From Pete "The Racquetman" May:

For Dave,

In order of importance for distance? Strength, technique, practice. Please expand.

From Gary C:

For Harold,

How are you able to be so creative after all the holes you have designed?

discette · Aug 17 2004, 02:33 PM

From Cory Hill, Advance Women:

When will you bring the SE Valkyries back in production?
Please, please, please!

discette · Aug 17 2004, 02:33 PM

From Dan Howard:

When will we see a candy Ram?

discette · Aug 17 2004, 02:34 PM

From Dan Mueller #14270:

Why no more "gummy" Beasts?

davei · Aug 17 2004, 05:50 PM

Pete, technique, practice, then strength are the order I would put them in. Technique is most important because therein lies efficiency for both imparting energy to the disc, and using the energy most efficiently in the proper flight pattern for the particular disc and wind conditions. Practice can help to hone technique, but practicing the wrong technique will make you better at throwing wrong. Strength can help, but flexibility and quickness are more important and again go back to technique.

davei · Aug 17 2004, 05:53 PM

Cory, I don't know exactly when, but we will definitely bring SE type Valkyries back. Probably by November. They will go into the Pro catagory as the Pro Valkyrie. Expect them to be a little less stable at high speeds and to have more carry.

davei · Aug 17 2004, 05:54 PM

Dan, sorry, no candy Ram is planned at this time.

davei · Aug 17 2004, 05:55 PM

Dan, we still make gummy Beasts in lighter weight Champions.

I'll say it again: get a candy CFR Viper if you want a Candy RAM.

atreau3 · Aug 17 2004, 09:03 PM

Dan,

Next time i see you i'll give you my CFR Viper to use for a while.. i never use it anymore anyway.

From Mike Robbins:

Are Champion Gremlins comming out?

discette · Aug 18 2004, 07:52 AM

From Matt Thomas:

Why are some Eagles not marked as Eagle Leopard?

discette · Aug 18 2004, 07:54 AM

From Justin Ashton:

How do you have time to answer questions via email?

discette · Aug 18 2004, 07:54 AM

From Frank:

How long have you been playing?

discette · Aug 18 2004, 07:56 AM

From Andrew Chisholm:

Why are 150 class Champion discs so hard to come by?

discette · Aug 18 2004, 08:00 AM

From Brooke Plantz:

Will you ever run hard plastic Rocs again?

discette · Aug 18 2004, 08:12 AM

This anonymous question is for Dave, Harold, Tim, Johathan & Sam:

What do you think about the headquarters moving to Augusta, GA?
