I think at this point, we've all realized that the Guardian Lion/Tiger Warrior has become a diamond in the rough that everyone is loving. I have personally put one in my bag and it's currently on the brink of bumping out my P3X all together.

With that being said, when can we expect to get a Tiger Warrior in a premium plastic?

TKWolverine 07-01-2019 09:16 AM

Are there any more Active line discs in the works for 2019?

I used to looooooove those things. Had a pile of concave ones. Then I got a Wizard out of the blue and that snowballed... Probably lost a little glide in the exchange but gained stability for really ripping drives with a putter.

I don't think any of the active line will be coming out in premium plastics.

Not this year. But Yikun has other plastics so it's def a possibility

We've got some more online! The color combos aren't very wide at the moment but all discs listed online are part of the initial run and are fantastic.

We feel the same way too. All of us here have both in our bags for the same reason. In fact, the 2nd run FD hasn't graced our bag in a long time. Instinct for a little extra sauce on the throw, RR for smooth distance and laser straight shots.

That's an excellent choice. Although the X-Line is a bit more firm, the flights should definitely resemble that of the P-Line P1.

New bag will definitely be coming in the near future. Hopefully you'll get word about that fairly soon :)

A definite sleeper for sure. People really love them so far and we're pleased to get such a positive response. All molds for that matter are very useful. Premium Active line is in the discussion but will not become a thing, if so, until 2020

No new Active molds in the works for this year but 2020 is definitely an option!

Unfortunately P-Line drivers won’t return. Sorry about that. Hopefully we’ll have a good substitute for you in the near future that you like even more.

You mentioned P-Line drivers twice, but didn't mention mid's. Will we be getting more P-line MD3's (and 4's)?

Flick Maniac 07-13-2019 01:32 AM

Saw the bag few weeks ago and got a quick introduction. Superb design details. Would get one in an instant if the 7-year old Grip wasnt looking to last forever. I'll probably be buried with it.

King K 07-14-2019 12:59 PM

Will the three-tooled FD2 (royal rage mold) be released as a stock disc anytime soon? or will it be a recurring tour series disc?

Any ETA on when these will show up in retail shops? Hopefully a fair amount will be less than max weight.

I saw Nate Perkins in the bag european open video, saw new discmania bag, when will it be available?

It’s a Guru Yme and they must have an agreement with Discmania for production because Nate said its the new “Expedition” bag from Discmania. Swedish company - maybe connected through the Lat64 agreement? The non DM branded bag converted to $200 usd (I think.). After you import them from overseas and add a DM logo, I suspect it may be slightly higher in price. Could be wrong :)

Flick Maniac 07-31-2019 05:28 AM

^thats assuming a whole lot. From what I remember it was aimed at the Grip price range or lower but who knows. I could be making all this up too.

D-line drivers above PD/TD speed.... Yeah aint going to happen or I am going to eat one :D

So yeah, how about an update on the new PD run since it's the last day of July.

Hyzer Ale 08-01-2019 03:41 PM

Any new update on the FD2? Your website still shows an estimated release of July. Are these getting close?

broomerang 08-01-2019 03:43 PM

I think Discmania needs more employees.

krooster 08-03-2019 11:59 AM

Does anyone else think that soft P line is more durable than X line?

The soft P line that the P1 was originally run in was kind of floppy, but seemed indestructible. The special edition soft P line P2 is also basically indestructible, and less floppy (in my opinion, perfection). However I have X line P1x's and while I love the flight and grip, they get dinged up really fast.

I would LOVE to see the P1x run in soft P line.

Flick Maniac 08-04-2019 10:50 AM

They did have soft P-P1xs, but i never thought they were particularly resilient...

Jenga54 08-04-2019 10:09 PM

Could we get a down and dirty answer why we get mostly green and sandy yellow-brown Swirly discs instead of mostly pink, red, purple, blue, orange, dayglo or maybe even black/greys.
Yes we get some of those. But by-golly if you look at a lot of 25 of em, maybe half are desirable to someone.
Actually we just want blue ones. Instead of making all the colors mixed together, just make a whole batch of 2000 blue Swirly and 2000 pink swirly - just like there's only 4 colors of Evolution plastics.

ttstreamer 08-05-2019 09:44 AM

Are there any plans for releasing the Method in Exo plastics?

My theory is that it's Innova's way of using excess/leftover plastic. They mix the colors together and this is what we get. Then we pay $20+ for the special stamps.

Used to be echostar for a discount, now it's swirled star for a premium! Hope whoever came up with this one got a fat bonus.

fishballer06 08-07-2019 08:39 AM

When can we expect to see more black putters? I'd love a few D line P2's and P1X's, as well as some Tiger Warriors.

Hey Discmania, sounds like there are a number of people still very interested in the release date of full production Royal Rages! End of this month would be 2 months since the above post, got a date for us? <3

Maybe something went wrong. Idk. What I do know though, is I don’t envy Discmania Support.

I don't blame them for reaching out to other manufacturers. They have fans with money burning holes in their pockets and no discs to sell. Hundreds of posts a year on here with people begging for their favorite molds to be stocked in no-brainer plastics and configurations, and it's always "those are coming sometime soon."

At a certain point as a guy who throws a mixed bag, I'm ready to say forget it and decide to be content with a GStar teebird.

Weird how all their scrap is tan yellow and green, hardly any blue at all

Grey is sorta close to blue.

There will be a stock run of the FD2 this year but the slot hasn’t been made yet for a release date. Most likely in the next couple of months.

1) put a limit on how many discs one customer can buy on new/limited releases.
2) once you click "checkout" the items in your cart should not be able to be sniped as you are selecting shipping and filling out payment. I had to reselect discs 4 times after selecting shipping.

This is something we’ve been working on diligently to find a solution for. We’ve struck out a few times with web developers but are determined to get it taken care of as fast as possible.

The discmania boat has sailed, and I am indifferent about missing it.

A growing company unfortunately passes those same pains onto customers inevitably. Orders that are far too massive and in multiple products can sink a company very quickly so it’s risky business not being careful with purchases. Many factors come into play such as the main one which is purchasing products a minimum of 6+ months in advance that don’t meet the high demand when the product is ready to sell. Case: Cloud Breaker.

The production numbers we ordered late last year were based on current demand, following, and growth numbers but by the time they were ready to sell the demand was much higher. We’re always learning and growing while making sure each decision made is also to ensure the success of the company in the long run and not making risky choices that could be devastating. We’ll get there.

Any chance that there will be more P1's run in soft p-line? It's darn near indestructible but my greatest fear is losing one and not being able to get a replacement since I use them for most of my putter drives (and upshots and putts).[/QUOTE]

The P1 won’t be run in the soft plastic most likely but you can expect more Soft P2 to pop up as well as the P1x again most likely. Possibly another mold as well :)

Also, when is the next run of [stiff] P-line P2s? Stock seems to have dried up for the most part. I see the randoms left on a handful of websites, but not much of a selection.

Next batch of P-Line P2 is due in a couple weeks. D-Line too. As far as the swirly putters go we won’t do any this year but will take a look next year. More than likely the P1x won’t be made again in swirl plastic.

Not in 2019 for sure. I can’t disclose any info concerning plans for new plastics in Active line currently. Sorry about that!

No new Active molds planned for 2019 but you can expect us to look to expand a bit the following year.

Like stiff P-Line? I’m not sure we have ever run out of them online.

Cloud Breakers will return very shortly. Lower weights included.

I’d say it’s fairly certain you will see the P1x run again in soft plastic. P2 for sure will make another debut as well.

We haven’t noticed the Soft plastic being more durable than X-Line but would be interested to hear from others. I’d venture to say the opposite but maybe other folks feel the same as you do.

Swirls are tough. I think there are many factors to the equation but they are unpredictable at times. Production is always finding new ways to perfect the process. In a nutshell, although muddy discs are undesirable, the fact that these discs are all basically unicorns make the Originals swirl discs highly sought after. We’d love for every one to be mind blowing but it’s just not always in the cards. Based on that fact alone, that’s why people love them so much because they are all so unique.

RR should make a comeback in the next month or so. We’ll work hard to get these out as fast as we can.

I have no interest in these discs. My previous 2 inquiries were about a new run of PD, which you previously indicated would be out in July. So, when can we hope to see these in shops?

Great to know you are running the DD3 in lower weights, I'm confident that you can do the same with PDs.

We'll have a special version of the PD coming very soon with some portions of it in the 170 range but not many. Our next production batches of S and C-Line PD should arrive some time in September or October at the latest most likely.
