Oh please blue. I love all blues but less the darker ones. Truly a color for all seasons, as is pink.

Interesting. I always had a hard time with Blue in winter and fall!

I'd definitely be interested in a D-PD.

Thanks for the CD2. I have had some time to test them. Intersting disc as I had no idea what to expect.
Here is my thoughts-same top as a PD. Bottom is a faster shaped fd. Amazing how similiar these two discs look. Think fd bottom with a slightly bigger wing and a PD nose.
The flight is like a broken in PD.. Actually very similiar to my Gstar PDs. As you know gplastic almost always adds some turn and decreases stability.
These are similiar to Saints. But a little less squirelly a touch more stable but with a touch less glide.
As for now, I have no idea where to put them in my bag. But the star swirl looks great and I keep taking them along to throw even though they have not found an offical slot yet.

most of our guys pair it with a PD and they can handle most distance shots until of course they're beefing up to the DDx or PD2.

Oh yeah colors. And my philosophy on discs/colors. Blank tops with a small side logo. Thank god you guys do this I can just never find the right weights. Seems everything is max.
The best colors are (this is not up for debate)- White, Pink, Light Blue, Dark Blue
Orange and yellow disappear this time of the year if you live in areas where deciduous trees dominate.

Hmmm. We usually try to have a variation of weights. but we must be out of them!

I agree it's by far the easiest to find.

Therefore, alongside normal workable discs I will always carry a stupid stable mid and a driver. Currently a Justice and a 12x FAF FB.

Thanks for the feedback. We have found our Metal Flake FD3s to be pretty overstable and dependable!

What comes to colors; bright yellow! Not chartreuse please. Also light blue discs look sweet. Any possibilities we could see white x-line discs?
|
Thanks for the feedback. We have a problem making White X-LINE discs. the material always came out like light brown (from what I can remember), so since it's almost brown we avoid it.

We have been working on making some minor tweaks to the mold to make it more overstable and be closer to our favorite prototypes. Thanks for the feedback!

|
Yes, for sure. The current P-LINE FD is closer to the S-LINE plastic than any other. It takes a little more beating that allows players to use it longer. However since it has more grip we have found that many players can make it turn more right away compared to it's premium siblings.

I will always have an FD

If I had one (disc golf) wish - I would make everyone at least try the FD. I think that was the disc that really caught my attention first.

There are rumors. We can tell you they are coming soon. currently there are 5 molds we have produced. What do you guys think they are?

I was trying to compliment my saints when I bought the fd. The jury is still out. But they are both great molds. It would be foolish to eliminate either one. The saint is longer. The fd is a bit more controllable.
On the talk about making molds throw able:
things have changed over the years in terms of discs being massively overstable. The FD3 is in that category. It is super os. And I can only justify bringing this disc out when the winds are blowing hard. Certainly not a disc that is deserving to be carried all the time like the saints and fds. I have mine fd3's in sweet swirl star so l love them. But really their only purpose is to defeat nasty headwinds.

Is that a Lizotte Swirl S-FD3? Those came out crazy overstable!

I had the same intention with my FD's, but they were going further than I expected, to the point that it doesn't make sense to have both in the bag and have to pick which one to throw each time. Flight patterns are nearly identical despite 2 speed difference. http://www.inboundsdiscgolf.com/cont...45876O777921OO

We have found many people found the FD more reliable because you didn't have to "power it up" enough to create the same flight. The FD does wonders with a smooth throw with controlled motions. You don't need to have a crazy fast arm to make it go far. Especially if you're throwing a softer S-LINE or P-LINE one.

|
They're actually the 10th run. The 9th run was a super small batch we had made as a mid season supplement. The two runs look and fly identical FYI. We got them to come out nice and stable but still had some decent glide to them! I was going to bring some for Eagle at the USDGC but didn't want to mess with his bag ;)

Good question. Yeah that is why we pay the discmania premium to order directly from discmania so we can know which run.
Otherwise why wouldn't one save a lot of cash and go to other retailers.
|
We have been trying really hard to teach our retailers to know what we have. Or at least let you guys know what you're looking for so you can get the right disc for you!

Any guesses on the molds?
