Topic.

Do they ask the team what they would like to see in a new disc? Or do they just send prototypes to test?

Just curious.:arrow:






Also, and to a more general audience, What would you like to see added to the line up?


I would like to see-

Super fast, domed, insanely overstable driver. (i.e. a better Spirit)

Small diameter, fast, overstable mid. (Torque revisited?)

Very overstable putt/approach. (i.e. Sinus)


Not having these types are in no way detrimental to the bag, and can be taken care of with other discs(Flick/Pred, Xtreme, Wasp/Drone, Banger/Challenger.)but putting out new discs is inevitable, and something like these would be nice to see in the future.:wink:



Btw, the examples I gave are just that, examples. 8)

Image Did I detect some annoyance in your post there?

So they don't ask for the team members input frequently?

I'm thinking the Spectra top on the Flick would be sweet. And would also give the Drone in ESP a try too, I just don't like the feel of it in D, feels overweight.

Like fat, obese, overweight. :P

Yes ,some annoyance.In the past we have recieved testers in a generic plastic.After review,THE MOLDS WERE TWEAKED!And then the new discs were sent out!A good example of this was the Venom!The original disc was sweet!Faster than a Flash ,while being as predictable as a new Crush!Too bad I can`t say that about the retooled model :shock: The generic plastic is a red(clay colored)"d"-type plastic that actually seemed better than the standard "d"!
As far as Drones go, think "thick"as in durable ,dependable,lo-glide accuracy/overstability.It`s not meant to be sleek!ESP or Z would be even better!(More stability /durability)FLX would be even better at enhancing the accuracy/stopping power of this disc!
