The freak and craze stamps just never really did it for me.

Thank you for your input! We appreciate the connection we have with our fans!

I'm with you on these, minus the Chaos. Give us some more crazy animal stamps! ;)

Also, I am reading between the lines that the P-FD is closer to reality than fantasy. In which case

They’re here!

The PD freak stamp is very popular. You must be a true Discmaniac if you’re thinking of getting one of our stamps on your permanently!

I got 6 of the production ran big stamped P-md3's, and they are overstable. Amazing feel in the hand. Favorite mid, I haven't played much since I got them but the newest run is 10x better than the proto's and I'm glad I bought 6 haha, It's like a KC pro Roc. Full power rips and it was still hyzering for me honestly. They are going to season in to such amazing discs.

Thanks for the input! We love it!

If you guys are feeling up to it, mold up some FDs in the stiff MD3 pline while your at it. I guarantee they will sell!

We’re working on the D-FDs. There’s a possibility of the stiff FD in the future but for now we chose the softer more durable plastic for P-LINE because it’s winter and you need more grip out there.

Feels like it is that initial breaking in period and then your good to go on straight shots/small hyzerflips with zero fade. Flies like a putter but longer and lower lines. What more could you want on tight wooded fairways?

That’s a very good spot to use the MD3s for sure!

I've seen people beg for (stiff chalky roc plastic) KCpro teebirds for years now and I think innova has made a misstep not making them. I think discmania could easily capitalize on this and at least experiment with a KCpro FD. A slightly more durable DFD/Base line that seasons a little slower would be AWESOME !!

We have heard this too. Thank you for the clarification.

The plastic is grippy but firm. It shouldn’t be considered “floppy”. What are thoughts of you that have tried them?

Actually all of the K-P2 and P-LINE P2s are made of the same plastic. Sometimes it comes out a little softer or more firm. The current run is firm like the original KP2 run. The only actual difference of these discs should be the writing on the bottom.

We have run a P-LINE P1x in the same firm P-LINE material. We are currently out of them.

This is what I was talking about above.

That’s because it’s the same material.

We will be looking to have more later. We’ll do our best to let you guys know when they’re ready!

Thanks for the kind words. We hoped you all would like them!

Are they more stable than the D Line's by much? I didn't care much for the D's I have.

They are more stable than D-LINE for sure. We haven’t really had a run of the FD be as understable as the current run of D-LINE FD.

Quote:

Been a bit since I've thrown a fresh D-Line, but my gut is telling me yes. Still holds a nice hyzer line, and into a wind it flipped to flat, turned a bit, then still faded back a little. It's like a worn in S-Line, which is exactly what I was hoping for. Not flippy, but will get there faster than S and slower than D.

That’s a fair statement about the P-LINE FD.

I really like what I'm seeing out of the P-Line's so far. The plastic fits right in between S-Line and G-Line in terms of grip and flex. The overall shape of them is similar to the run of C-Lines that were flatter(3rd run if I remember correctly). In terms of flight, they are definitely on the understable side for an FD right out of the box. I threw them along side a new S-Line, new Hybrid S-Line and a new Glow. The stability was similar to the Hybrid S-Line, with maybe a touch more turn to it(The Hybrids also have a bit of turn to them when new). Even though the P-Line's are a little flatter, they still have an amazing amount of glide...guessing that can be attributed to the plastic mix. For people that don't have an arm like Eagle or Simon, I can see these becoming a fantastic roller after a bit of wear. One other thing that I noticed when comparing the nose of these against the S or C line version, is that it seems to be just a tiny bit smaller. Guessing that is do to the cooling process of pro plastic, so maybe these might have just a smidge more speed to them as well. Anyway...really looking forward to throwing these some more.

Thanks for the input, we really appreciate players following up with us!

I also agree that the dome matches my 3rd runs, but my 5ths are not far off either. I was surprised by the plastic. Nothing like my P-PD at all. Feels more durable (but that makes sense for the molds: you'd want an over stable pro driver to season faster than a stable/under stable pro fairway.

Thank you for the feedback on the plastic feel!

Love the plastic on the P-FD's, feels just like my favorite millennium baselines. I compared mine to my other FD's and they look to have the same PLH as my S Lines. Dome is pretty even to my 2nd runs. Biggest difference is the nose seems a little less blunt than even my S Lines.

Work is too busy for me to get a chance to throw them yet but from what everyone else is saying I am sure I will love them.

How about some P and S FD2's now?

Did you try them yet? We’ll think about the FD2.

Please let us know what you think of them too!

if it’s max weight I think I saw someone buy one for $50+

Quote:

Which is strange because most of the lighter ones are more overstable.

First run C-PDs have been seen over $100 but that seems to change based on the stamp.

40 may even be on the low end. A lot of 4 recently sold on facebook for over 140, I never saw the final price.

Yeah, they have been going up in price.

Quote:

Originally Posted by SpikeHyzer (Post 2897968)

Pat# S-PD's seem to have come down a little in my opinion, but still bring decent money. Pricing has been all over the radar though. I've seen them go for as little as $18 on ebay recently, but have also seen some in the $35-$40 range.

New First Run C-PD's, especially if max weight, can bring a fair chunk of change. Probably in the $50-$75 range, depending on color.

And stamp. The ones with our First Run stamp have seemed to be the holy grail so far from what I’ve been personally asked for.

i think a lot of folks are too concerned about everything having to be max wt. if you give them a 169g disc with no markings will they know the difference? hardly. and peeps concerned about anything under 175g being flippy, its more about individual PLH than anything else. 167 disc can be a pig, whereas same mold/ plastic 175 one can have turn if low PLH.

Especially for the 2nd run FDs.

Sorry about that. We had it posted for like 2 minuntes and working out the kinks and people still found it!

That’s interesting. There’s always a possibility. Thank you for your input.

Another interesting proposal.

Simon has that flat first run that is stiff and seems to be one of a kind, I feel something like that would sell well!

Eric has the PD2 that produces great turn and doesn't seem to fly like a PD2.

Then on a slightly related note, Eagle throwing a max for stupid OS needs. What about a metal flake PD2 or maybe if you got a run flat and pearly (like Simons or 2nd run FDs) that could be a new option! (shout out for MF FD's and MD3's as well lol)

While those runs would benefit the team, it would also give us DM fans something fun to play around with!

We did recently recreate as close to the First Run PD2 as we can so far. Simon, Eagle and Eric are all using the newest run. (it was hard to convince Eric that the new discs were as good ☺ )

There’s always a chance. A D-LINE MD3 might fill the gap that the MD2 fills though between the MD3 and MD. What are you guys thoughts on the MD2?

We’re gunna have to work on getting more D-LINE P2s because of you guys!

You’re close there. We are just more specific on how and when we introduce discs, that’s the main difference.

The newest run is actually quite overstable. Even if you consider them “just as stable as a pd”… they’re much faster and fly further if you can get a 12 speed disc up to speed. We only wish they were available for the last Japan Open, Simon told us he wished he had this disc because it’s more overstable than almost all other lightweight discs he’s thrown.

also – there aren’t many lightweight discs that can be used in the wind… the PD2 is one of them if not the only one?

I just unpacked my small mystery box. Here's what it had in it:

G star vroc3 180g with president's cup stamp
S-line FD 175g w/flying circus stamp
C-line DD2 166g w/flying circus stamp
1st run D-line P3 175g

The FD will absolutely get thrown, and I'll give the vroc3 a shot at making the bag. The other two will probably be given to friends or traded for something else.

What did you think of the contents? Was it worth your money?

We have a few were working on getting released. Keep your eyes on the Discmania Store!

just an FYI the sixth run CPDs (flat JL) has straight up TURN...the max weight xouts I had stashed away fly like valk/CD/beat PPD (fast turn at high speed with minimal fade. On shots that I would normal throw flat and just to the right of the target, needed extreme hyzer to the left of my lines to play the turn (shots would end right). I could not get it to fly a golf hyzer line to save my life, pretty much had to use silly/creative lines.

I'm not necessarily disappointed (DM is just too good with transparency etc. etc.) but I will say that I'm going try and liquidate these out of my collection. My absolute favorite thing about PDs is the HSS :P This is the first time I've actually seen a PD fly like this out of the box let alone seasoned. I have a red workhorse SPD that's been in the bag several seasons that still has yet to EVER turn.

so for the sake of minimalism I can see this being nice. these could definitely fit the premium "PPD" flight slot.

first run CPD / SPD / 6th run CPD could probably hit every line on the course.

if anyone is interested in Gline PDs/6th run CPDs hit me up.

that’s very interesting. We haven’t had this happen yet. Did the disc happen to have a warp in it?

Thanks for the feedback!

You might want to try the new G-LINE… it’s very versatile for a throwing putter to say the least.

Is this the Discmania Tern like disc? Faster, glidier PR that has some turn? #wildspeculationoutofmy***

I’ll let you guys speculate more.

We have glow or clear discs that appear to be white?
