I don't think anyone really wants to knock DC here but just wants them to take a step that truly is further/better/revolutionary (???)

as the world leader in disc sports surely they have the ability

now I'd be pretty interested to see a Ti lid of some kind

The manager of the shop that sponsors our Am League said the Ti discs are being premium priced equivalent to CFRs. He'll sticker them at $19.99 but some shops may go as high as $25.

This really doesn't hold any excitement for me, because I don't throw any Discraft. My kid will love it though and probably pick up a Buzzz at least... has there been any confirmation of molds going into Ti production?

My Buzzz SS (purchased in December from discgolfcenter.com) is pearly gold, opaque Z plastic. There are some radiating streaks running out from the center of the disc. The Stalker in this post looks similar, except of course for the ghost stamp.

It is kinda odd that they are making a huge deal of ripping off two year old technology from another company...

Maybe Disc Golf has simply reached a technological plateau though?

So far this year, Blizzard is the more exciting new plastic on the market. More potential for better disc performance instead of just looking pretty.
