MF MD3 for EO is a kickass idea for sure. fix that very OS DM midrange slot "problem" in the process. I bag a glow MD3 from the last time EO was around, not only for collectors!

desertstormvet 02-12-2015 02:52 AM

I had a Black JLS that I loved, it was lost. I have been trying to replace it but cannot find any in black. Are black ones ever going to be made again?

desertstormvet 02-12-2015 03:01 AM

:clap: Sorry, i was thinking all wrong, took me a second to realize that JLS is Millennium. Sorry. Still would like to try a FD someday if I could find one in my weight

fasteddie 02-12-2015 08:01 AM

metal flake MD3, FD, PD, PD2. I could see all of those molds selling fast.

booter 02-12-2015 09:59 AM

There are mf cpd's

Yeah! And they bring the BEEF!!! Believe that!

fasteddie 02-12-2015 11:24 AM

I want some of the MF but my PD collection is reaching a pretty stupid number.

Other than one PD that was ganked out of the fairway by some jerk, I haven't had to put in a new disc out of my back ups in over two seasons.

(not including the ones in my bag)

5x first run c

4x 6th run JL c

10x Freak Stamp s

and a handful of g line and p line.....


But think that the molds that I suggested being run in MF as the euro open discs would be hot sellers.

gerth_vader 02-13-2015 12:53 AM

I would love to see glow p-line p2, fd in another plastic (x-line or p-line), p1x in p-line, p2x in x-line, stiff flat glow c-line pd, color glow c-line fd pd and p3!

Flick Maniac 02-13-2015 03:47 AM

oh yes, forgot. golor glow everything, including the kitchen sink!

Rol6566 02-13-2015 08:45 AM

D-MD3, KC-MD3, G-PD2, G-DD....

You guys would make a killing with some of those discs

Flat MF C-P2 :D

And some special Metal Flake discs too :D

DinosaurThunder 02-17-2015 08:44 AM

Any chance we will see more black p-line P2's produced? I am having some serious sellers remorse from letting mine fly the coup. Would love to pick some up for spring!

SpikeHyzer 02-17-2015 08:54 AM

Will we see a truly understable midrange in the Discmania line up? The MD2 and MD3 seems to have the slightly to moderately overstable slot covered, it would be great to have something in the straight to slightly understable slot in a premium plastic.

fasteddie 02-17-2015 01:59 PM

retool the MD1 already!

clard 02-17-2015 10:10 PM

I want to start by saying I love the discs you guys are putting out, and the amount of info you give us about them. Super cool. Thanks for listening to the people.

Your shipping is really pricey. Even the Innova Factory store (which is very expensive too) gives you the over $80 free shipping which is a nice incentive to grab a stack of discs rather than 1 or 2. It's just harsh to pay MSRP for your discs (when I can get some of them for less at other online stores and get free shipping) and then pay through the nose for shipping too.

I'm not going to stop buying from you because of it, but I personally always buy at least $80 worth of discs from Innova for the free shipping and I would do the same at your store. Think about it!

OB Four 02-17-2015 11:05 PM

Not sure if it's been asked or not. Just a question for fun.. is there going to be a Simon Lizotte signature blizzard boss?

booter 02-19-2015 10:15 AM

Colored glow cmd3's and cpd's ,please? :)

booter 02-19-2015 10:16 AM

Or any flat glow cmd'2s in the near future?

Columbia gorge 02-19-2015 03:12 PM

^^^^ What he said!!! On another note, I received my box of first run xp1x today. Each disc was bagged separately and I just wanted to point out what awesome customer service Discmania has. I can spent my hard earned money anywhere I like and I keep coming back to the same place. I would however like to see a shipping break if you spend over $80 in one shot as would others. Keep up the great work down there and I will keep sending you the cash I earn up here!

Try to find the run of jolly launcher flat MD3's - ignore the # after the MD that run is really straight.

New013 02-19-2015 07:02 PM

apparently the new run of JL MD2's are really straight. i really wish they would make the MD1 something comet/fuse like with a similar rim kind of rim shape as the MD2/MD3. i love the fuse but ive never really liked that really concave rim shape.

Other than once in a while happy accidents (2nd run FD) a wide variation of flights from the same mold between runs is for the birds.

I'm a fellow discmaniac and these are some suggestions/observations/stream of consciousness thought barf

ALL THINGS CONSIDERED! (including that there will always be a *slight* variation between runs, there are already variations of runs/plastics to cover *most slots*)

Compared to the distance and fairway line ups, the mids are a mess.

the name of the game is consistency..

all MD3s should be overstable.

all MD2s should be stable.

all MD1s(after the possible retool) should fly understable.

these three flight paths plus the GM as a tweener/utility beefcake MD4** would be a complete midrange line up that rivals the competitors.

there is barely any distinction between the MD1/MD2/MD3 at least not enough to cover all bag slots (truly overstable/truly understable). They are all stable/straight to fade flyers

Please don't just start shoehorning mold after mold into the line up.

If discmania could offer a complete range of mid flight paths from understable to overstable (md1/md2/md3/md4**) keeping simplicity (number of molds) and consistency paramount (they fly like they should), they would be ahead of the game.

I love how discmania has kept a close eye on variations and made it a point to know the subtleties of flight paths. Being proactive and vocal as to which ones you're buying has seriously separated them from the competition (for the better) in my eyes..

BUT!

wouldn't it be easier if all MD3s flew like MD3s?

DinosaurThunder 02-20-2015 09:18 AM

I must commend you for the stock stamp x-line P2 with a mini store stamp! I would love to see this done on other molds :) reminds me of when innova puts mini wings on stock stamps. Just a nice touch and nice look! Keep up the good work!

This would be awesome. If I recall, Discmania's glow plastic is softer than Jolly Launcher which would be great. Flat/gummier would be a dream. It's basically impossible to find the old opaque CMD2s anywhere.

Flick Maniac 02-21-2015 02:38 AM

get a glow MD3, in my experience they are 99,9% the same disc as good 'ol flat opaque cmd2s

gerth_vader 02-22-2015 03:38 AM

I think a flat topped glow c-line GM would also be a great fundraiser disc

i thought the glow MD3's were actually beefy? the opaque cmd2's started out with solid fade but i wouldn't call them beefy. i guess i need to buy one to see for myself.

i also would be ecstatic if they brought back the gummier plastic for CMD2's, if that means glow plastic whatever. im just overall not a huge fan of the hard slick plastic for my mids; that's why i'm hoarding the opaque gummies.

Flick Maniac 02-22-2015 08:16 AM

thats what people keep saying but the two glow md3s i have are indentical, slightly power hungry maybe but straight with moderate fade. forehand given a good snap they are surprisingly long and super straight.

maybe my md2 was a freak? dunno, anyways IMO these were the perfect replacement to when I lost it

I love that idea.

fasteddie 02-23-2015 09:34 PM

I feel like a flat topped GM would fly like a badass slim profile gator.. or an MD4* :thmbup:

that pretty much describes the opaques i have; then after you beat them in a bit the fade kinda dies off but the high speed stability stays. to me the first JL run were more power hungry and the flats really lacked glide and the domier ones faded to early. even the ones i beat in still didn't fly as well as the opaques, they just wouldn't get up and go the same way.

they're saying the new run of JL's are more like the originals so I'll have to check those out but I still would rather have a softer plastic for my mids.

mrDROCK 02-24-2015 02:29 AM

G-Line FDs and FD2s in the future?

Columbia gorge 02-24-2015 03:06 AM

G- line FDs exist.

they actually have Factory Seconds G-FDs and D-FD (yup DX FDs for $6.00) at the Innova Factory Store. There is also first run X-out G-FDs (only in max weight though) at the Discmania online store.

rallyguy 02-25-2015 12:26 AM

Do you guys not produce a lot of lighter weight C line plastic? It seems like 170-171 is the lightest I usually find online, even at the Discmania store. Do the lighter weights not mold up how you want them? Just curious as to how that decision gets made.

Cliff notes: I'd love to find a 167g 3rd run or later C FD and C CD2 :D

fasteddie 02-25-2015 07:38 AM

I have lots of 167 (as well as 168 and 175) 2nd run FDs and PDs.

rallyguy 02-25-2015 12:22 PM

Those were the two exceptions, I forgot to mention those. Those light FD's are my favorites, 166-169 are right in my wheelhouse.

I'd love a non blizzard DD2 or even a PD2 that light

dehaas 02-26-2015 11:26 PM

The low 160s s line dd2s from hero flat out bombed. Think that's the longest forehand disc I've thrown.

Yes, agreed. Since it's not my place to speak on that part of the operation, I'll just say it's something they're aware of. :)

I've had some of the same issues in switching over from the Roc/Roc3/Shark3 combo I was using, but thanks to the tireless efforts of the legendary Ryan Rintala I've got a good set together now.

Glow C-MD3's are overstable
new run C-MD3's (more dome) are stable
flat C-MD2's are drifty with some fade
flat gummy JL MD3's are point-and-shoot line holders

Hope this helps for now.

fasteddie 02-27-2015 04:45 PM

yarp


Ryan is the man.

New013 02-28-2015 06:42 AM

are the glow MD3's on the site domey or flat?
