[Discraft] Paul's New Fairway (Anax)

[Streets]

Or the Rat, more the logo of a clearly rabies infected large city rat on a disc.

I actually think the Rat's pretty cool. Reminds me of Splinter.

My Rat is an FR Proto-star, so no rabies or Splinter issues with it...

Not me, if I designed the disc it would have a Rat Rod on the disc and call it a Rat for short. or a less messed up angry looking Rat.

I believe it's the Onyx.

Looked like a tracker to me. Which was a great disc that Discraft should have kept in production and Paul was throwing a lot earlier in the year.

It probably is.. Tweak the mold (or just the stamp) a touch call it a new disc and cash in on marketing clout! Ka-ching$$$

Paul

I feel like he has a big gap in speeds between his buzz and 9 speeds..

Pretty normal for Paul. He hasn't thrown a 6-7 speed disc in many years. 8-9 speed discs have always been pretty fuzzy as well.

I'm sure he'll put out some kind of teebird clone and claim it's what he was always looking for and the sales will be crazy.

Paul´s instagram says

"Today the Anax (pronounced Onyx) officially becomes PDGA Approved!"

I dont really get the thougth behind the names of Pauls discs

 

[brutalbrutus]

He likes 4-letter words...

 

[Jkosk]

But what's the theme? I really thought he would have a more well-thought out theme for his disc names.

Luna, Kong, Anax?

Luna was the godess of the moon...

Anax can be a warlord / chief OR a dragonfly but lets assume he's going for the former.

Kong is a big ****ing gorilla?

Luna was about something to do with hood family. He did a short video explaining the background of the development of the Luna

 

[broomerang]

Why not just Onyx? Whatever man. You do you.

Vibram had a disc called the Onyx, perhaps they have the rights to the name...Not sure how it works.

I feel like a 6 glide rating is a bit of a marketing gimmick. But maybe not?

Glide numbers we not standardized, are not consistent from company to company, and are relative, especially with regard to the speed number. So marketing gimmick, or glide relative to other Discraft discs... who knows?
