2015 Pros and Their Manufacturers

Speaking of which, Ian you want your tester back? I finally was able to snag one of my own.

Ian is a devout Legacy follower. Just pass it along to some sorry sap that is still throwing DX Rhynos

I know the MVP train is beaten to death but I am curious what Nikko thinks of the Atom with the similar plastic feel to Gateway.

 

[New013]

you can send that scale to me, i'd love to chuck thing hella far

Who wins the prize for switching sponsors the most?

Contenders I'm aware of...

Nikko Locastro
Devan Owens
Paul Ulibarri

anyone else?

Ricky is close to his third switch so he is getting close to consideration.

 

[DGHippie]

I'd say Barsby is close too. I've seen videos of him throwing Discraft, Westside, Legacy, and Diety Discs.

GG has done 3. Will be #4 if he jumps in 2015.

 

[Mixed Bag Madness]

All I know is that everyone on tour better watch out if Nikko stays with Wizards again full-time. He was absolutely deadly with those things when he was dialed in.

I will unless you know have someone locally in mind that would like to test.. if not i will bring it with me out to doubles and let people continue to test it and get the word out

I really really really liked it bro no doubt im just so stuck on my zone its hard for me to work it in the rotation .. but i do really like the mold .. i may try to work it in again but im using the GRIP mini now which makes it even tighter but the Scale is a stellar, stellar mold!! its so predictable for upshots

I kind of wonder if Prodigy chose not to renew his contract. And along the same lines, is he throwing a mixed bag because he wasn't offered an outright sponsorship by anyone else?

With his legal troubles and in-tournament blow-ups, I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case. I don't think it's necessarily a bad situation for him to be in though... I hope a mixed bag triggers a turn around in his game. He is fun to watch when things are going well.

Could be Prodigy didn't renew, although given the other talent they have leaving, you would think they would want to retain the ones willing to stay. We will probably never know. I do agree that a mixed bag sponsorship would probably help Nikko. He's fun to watch when he's on form and not berating himself for missing every other shot. Hopefully he will turn his game around when he starts putting with a [insert your choice of Wizard, Scale, Atom, etc. here].

 

[Streets]

An Atom, that's cute. More than likely Wizards or Magics.

Of course he'll be throwing Wizards. I'm just curious what his thoughts would be.

 

[Streets]

I wonder how it's setup? Like he's sponsored by Gateway putters, MVP (maybe) mids, Legacy drivers or he just throws in a bunch of stuff from all 3

 

[blackcatsmith]

Yeah, somehow I don't see a switch in brands, regardless of the company or the player, improving said players' chances of winning more rounds much less more tournaments, but on the flip side, I don't see it hurting them either. A player is gonna play.

 

[Halcón]

Hard to tell with the hearsay and sarcasm...

Is Nikko confirmed to be on Team MVP?

 

[tbird888]

No chatter on Facebook about it.

I think people believe he is based on him throwing some overmolds in that latest tourney vid he was in.

 

[Halcón]

Cool. Thanks, T, Streets.

Wasn't that a bag swap tourney?

Nope. Named for the disc swap at the party afterwards.
