Fair enough.

If there was a chance at getting cool stuff in the mystery boxes I’d be game. No way I want a box filled with Yikun or Trilogy stuff.

My last mystery box from a year or two ago had a P-line P2, an MD5, a Royal Rage FD2 misprint, a P3X, a PD2, and other cool stuff.

My favorite DM stuff has always had Innova tooling.

Am I the only one who thinks it was a wise move for them to include two different flexes of the putter?

People will more than likely prefer one over the other and want backups/practice putters.

Funny how you don’t want one until they’re sold out…

Took a long time compared to the red box.

The difference was crazy. I’m super curious how they stack up. It’ll be funny if the black is epic compared to the red, but my prediction is that next year will be a gem field. Can’t wait to see DM go full send in 2022!!

Not only does Lat design their discs, they also make them using Lat plastic.

Evolution line perhaps but certainly not the Originals plastic.

And looking at that video it did not really feel like Eagle did that much "Designing his own disc" more told Tomas to make one.

Some of this is partially true. Companies occasionally use outside marketing help, design work, I.T., etc. It's not all that uncommon. However, that does not mean we say "Hey Thomas, make us some discs" and he says, "Okay!". All things are created to our specifications and intentions. He is an expert designer and when it comes to especially unique things like the Mutant, naturally he was a big help with something so creative. Our resources are best spent instead in the areas of our business that we are very good at.

Rainmaker topic, Eagle ran through his design wishes and several prototypes over the course of some months. His dream is able to come to life through his knowledge as a skilled player and presenting that idea to the design team to make it a reality. Allen Iverson certainly didn't make his own shoes by hand.

In a world dominated by social media, where are the quick videos of discmania “manufacturing” their own discs? Not a single tour, or clip of discs actually being made. Weird that they are so proud of making their own molds now but all of us are relying on a single guy just saying that it’s happening. I don’t believe it for a second. “In house” is inside the latitude factory, until Jussi proves otherwise.

Same type of machine for sure, but your thinking is incorrect. These are made in our factory to our specifications. Machines that mold Evolution line as well are currently in transition over to this factory as well. Most of which has already been accomplished.

Very conclusive video clip, I mean commercial. I still don’t believe any of it. You guys are expert marketers, that’s for sure.
