Innova players do get kickbacks from sig discs. I heard it was a quarter per disc

I heard that as well, but that was some time ago.

Climo may be the only one who ever got that. Sounds like their policy may have changed once others were getting sig discs.

What I heard is 3rd person but the original person is a very high level pro so TIFWIW. I heard Climo was bought out for a large sum & now this is a yearly payment for sig discs & not a kickback anymore

After 12 (Open) World Championships, I'd bet Climo is the only full-time pro who has made a comfortable living playing DG. What comfortable is is highly subjective and personal, but I doubt he's scraping by, driving to tourney's couped up in a car with three other pros.

There was a video out not too long ago where Climo was doing a disc & bag give away. Billy Crump (I think) was at his house going through his stockpile & he definitely wasn't living in the bad part of town!!

^Haha nice pull Zam.

I want to know what kind of jobs pros have? Obviously most pros don't make their living on DG. So what kind of ion do they have that lets them take vacation time to do tourneys and stuff like that? Just wondering...

I've heard that before Legacy, Steve Rico poured concrete.

Well I heard very recently that Schultz got .25 per disc and that he still does.

Now Lavone has been dropped off the hall of fame team, the rumors are starting to add up.

Yep Wolfe and Schusterick are gone now from the list
No changes on Discraft's site yet, maybe they're still on holiday.

such a slow burn going over the discal cliff...

What puzzles me about that giveaway video is, you're supposedly getting climos bag, except its all brand new discs. So 5 indentical rocs. They turned it into winning a bunch of discs.

i think the person got what Climo carries in his bag, not his actual discs.

I read all of the pages in this thread. What do I win?

Dynamic discs teampage is blank..right now.

Dynamic Discs isn't even big news anymore. Now that I know everything, I'm excited. Before I didn't give a ****, but it's worth it. Once again, not really from the pro perspective(for me) but from the common dg'er perspective, this **** is awesome!

I get that, but the beauty of 5 rocs should be that it covers all mid range shots. Not 5 max weight kc pros. those all do the same thing.
