Guess its official, I wonder who bought it. It's about all I have in my bag since that's what I started with (gift starter bag) and simply upgraded to their prostyle plastics as I went. I wonder if the new owner will restart manufacturing them...
man, bumping this thread jinxed me. In the last 2 outings I lost my 2 primary drivers:lightning prostyle driver #1 and flyer #1 into the water. And I hadn't lost anything in a long time. I still see a few of these available online; but I figure now is the time to try something else. Anybody want to suggest something comparable to those 2 discs from other manufacturers?
I met a guy this week in Dallas that was running a charity tournament that had recently made Lightning discs in a "champion" like plastic. He said they are being made by the new owner.
I wouldn't give up on them yet. Their best days may be yet to come. The discs looked really nice. I still bought an older "prostyle" U-2 (176 gm!!!). Sweet find.
The event was called "DiscGames XII" run by Randy Mecca. It was an all day event held to help the physically challenged. He had a full lineup of Lightning discs. The new plastic was a big surprise.
Ohhhhhh maaaaaan, a Champion #1 Driver is something I have thought about numerous times, sign me up!
...I don't think the PC police would mind the different lines, I loved their airplane themes.....
Didn't the airplane stamps and names disappear so Lightning could sell in the Japanese market? That was the report circulating in the outlands when I could no longer find my favorite Lightning mold because I didn't know what it was renamed as.
