Since people are making requests, I think you guys should try to recreate the early (first?) run C-MD2s that were run in the grippy, opaque plastic blend. I don't know what it is about this plastic, but it just feels so good in the hand and flies great. It may not be the exact same stuff, but the recent special edition Brinster Millenium Sentinels looked pretty close. As did the pictures I saw of the Innova Store Champion Polecats. This blend, or something close, must still be possible. Make it happen!
Here's a picture of the run I am talking about. I got lucky finding these two at an out-of-town disc retailer last week :) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...psb74d788f.jpg |
Awesome! I'm glad they are available...will there be lighter 160ish weights in the near future?
|
And can you give us a heads up on future first run releases?
|
I think the opaque run are the best. They fly a tick less stable the new JLs, and feel oh so nice.
|
Any plans for a C-Line CD?

I love the PD2 for distance forehands. I'm always amazed to see the pros like David Wiggins, Simon Lizzotte, and AJ throw them so far backhand.
I'm wondering if the PD2 is an original mold or a combination of other molds? I always tell people it's like an XCal rim wit a PD top. Also, it seems like the current Destroyers have incorporated a PD/PD2 top instead of a more Wraith like top of early runs. Any insight on that? |
Thanks for all the Questions and Comments guys!

For rollers, I have seen several different discs used. For example; Simon Lizotte Uses the S-LINE DD2 for sky rollers, I have seen PD2's used as rollers that are kept a lot closer to the ground and for forehand rollers. And i have seen the FD and the TD thrown as rollers. I would recommend the S-LINE FD or The TD. The other two examples are much more difficult. We got the FD2's out before i could respond Quote:

I have thrown the newest Destroyers they are more overstable. But I don't have any insight on the shape of them. Sorry, it's not a Discmania product :) Thanks guys! I am sure you guys have some more questions! |
This forum was intended to inform everyone about Discmania Discs, but there's always a chance in the future!

Thanks again for taking the time to answer all these questions! I'm excited that there will be light P PD's, however my original question was regarding if the FD2 would be available in lighter weights.

Funny, I was just about to post what New said. The older opaque MD2s definitely have less LSS but show almost the same HSS as the newer JL runs. I have both, but ultimately prefer the opaque runs because of how amazing they feel. They also beat in really nice. Beat in they still fly stable unless thrown flat and hard. They also hold great anny lines.
|
I currently throw all Innova, but I will be seriously tempted to buy a G-LINE PD ;) When will these be available?

When are s-line fd2's looking to be out?
|
There is so much talk about the differenct runs of the PDs could you give me a brief run down of the different runs of the PD2 like which runs were most stable and which ones could actually be thrown for distance shots.

These and the P line were the OG for this mold. Dumb beefy until beat in and then they are just very overstable. These were discontinued when the S-PD2 released but they are back and still dumb beefy. S-PD2s - These were the last PD2 plastic to come out. They are even more overstable than the C-line but beat in a little faster. P-PD2 - These were out with the original C-line and they start out slightly less overstable than the C-line. They beat in pretty quick and achieve main distance driver status in a reasonable amount of time. In summary: stability S-line -> C-line -> P-line and most big arms I see bagging these are throwing multiples of the c-line. Usually a slightly beat one (just to get the edge off the HSS) and a very beat one that is a little bit workable |

It seems as though Discmania's flight rating numbers sometimes are slightly altered from actual flight characteristics because it would overlap an Innova product. Are there any regulations Innova puts on your flight ratings?
|
Thanks for the questions guys!

for the C-LINE: The super flat and hard plastic first runs are the most overstable. The current run Jolly Launcher's are the second most overstable. The second runs are the most workable for distance shots, they are more like a very overstable destroyer. The second runs look very close to the first run except it has a higher dome and is not flat, and the plastic feels much softer. For the S-LINE: They are all pretty close to the same stability which is less than or equal to the 2nd run C-LINES. for the S-LINES, they all for the most part appear to have the same shape, the biggest difference is that if you pick a softer feeling S-LINE PD2 it will be less overstable and firmer feeling S-LINE PD2 will be more overstable. For the P-LINE: This version of the PD2 has the most glide of all of the plastic types. If you are truly looking for distance shots this is the one you should be trying out. Listed from most overstable to Understable: 1st Run C-LINE > Jolly Launcher C-LINE > 2nd Run C-LINE > S-LINE > P-LINE Quote:
Innova does not put any regulations on our products. We do not overlap with them because our discs are unique discs and are not copies. Good question! What other questions do you guys have?? |
Do the D P2's all feel pretty similar, or are there differences between colors, runs, etc?
|
Do you have or know of anyone that has any proto star banshees?
|
^^ idk if this is the place you'll get an answer on that one, but who knows?
I've always found DM flight ratings to be on the mark (except for the 2nd run FD) |
Thanks for the answer. Sometimes I tend to consider the P2 to be slightly more overstable than the 2,3,0,1. Obviously, that would overlap with a BB Aviar. I think your products are unique and deserve their own flight ratings. I respect that you strive to be progressive and not just blatantly produce clones of discs that are popular for other companies.
|
when are the DM shirts/sweatshirts going live?
in the head wear pictures, you have models that aren't available on the site, are there plans to release more hats/styles? |
How does the new G-line P2 compare to the S-line P2 for a driving putter?
|
I would have to disagree with the C-PD2 stabilities a bit. I have a FR C-PD2 which is a monster, but a 2013 run C-PD2 with microbubbles in the rim and a pop top is a devourer of worlds. I am talking about FAF Firebird stable but with added speed stability. Nigh unthrowable, for any useful line. Cannot imagine a wind where the FR would not suffice.
This could if course be a matter of individual discs, but every tale I've heard of the new run pop tops is they're crazy overstable and fade hard right out of hand. Even for power throwers. |

Other than that, we haven't noted a difference in feel in plastics. The new plastic is soft and has a good amount of grip with a firm feel to it. Quote:

There will be more hat styles in the future. Good eye! Quote:

Either way, they are both seriously overstable just as the disc is supposed to be! :) |
What's in the official Discmania rep's bag? :popcorn:

Thanks for sharing what's in your bag.
Any chance there will be lighter first run G* FDs or lighter first run C-line FD2s added to the store inventory in the near future? I like fairways under 170g but I am so excited to try these new ones I will buy heavier if I have no other choice. |
And any chance at lighter Simon FD's or McBeth P2's?
|
What, you dont bag any PDs?? For shame! :D Thats a big jump from FD2 to PD2 and DD2... but I have seen weirder combos work. Its about how you use what you have.
|
Can you share the different flight characteristics of all three FD runs?

Is there a difference in flight characteristics, feel, or shape between the regular run C MD3s and the European Open glow C MD3s? Thanks for all the great info; it makes such a huge difference to have a place to ask these questions and get good info.
