The time has COME… Manufacturers of all varieties have brought an assortment of molds with spooky, mysterious, Halloween-themed stamps for you to get your hands on. From pumpkins to mummies, and everywhere in between, you are bound to find a stamp that suits your fancy!
Browse the following post to find the disc for you, and from all of us at Infinite Discs, we with you a very Happy Halloween.
This year Innova has released two different Halloween discs, the flaming pumpkin and the Werewolf on the IT. It’s probably just me, but I think they may have missed out on an opportunity with what to do with a Halloween version of the IT.
Mad cat as a Halloween disc! Great Idea LSD. And yes, it does glow in the dark. If the Mad cat isn’t spooky enough for you then you’ll have to go with Halloween edition Penny putter. We’ll just say that honest Abe has seen better days.
For our Infinite Discs Halloween release we decided to provide an inexpensive way for you to get some Halloween Discs. We pulled out a number of our past edition Halloween stamp plates and stamped away on an assortment of popular molds we had extra X-outs of. If you’re not sure what X-Outs are, this article will explain. The Infinite X-Outs provide a great way for you to get a Halloween disc without spending a fortune.
MVP –
MVP KILLED it with their total Eclipse Simon Lizotte Hex. Not only is the Hex a popular mold, Simon Lizotte the most popular professional disc golfer, but MVP glow plastic is about the best glowing in the business. The “total” eclipse occurs because both the rim and flight path are in glow plastic. A fun fact is that this Saturday there will be a full Lunar Eclipse that crosses the Western US, including Utah. MVP also released a Recycled James Conrad Wolfman Nomad that is also pretty elite.
Discmania is not going to be left out of the Halloween fun. Their releases include these spider, gargoyle and batt stamps on some of their popular Discmania Molds. Unfortunately, we don’t have these discs yet, but they will be coming soon!
Welcome back to another Focus Friday, where we look at a certain mold or brand, and give you a discount so you can try it out for yourself. This weekend, we take a look at one of Infinite Discs most reliable and beginner-friendly discs… the Maya
Beginning as early as 1500 BCE, The Mayan culture began creating a glorious civilization that can still be admired in areas such as southern Mexico, Guatemala, and northern Belize. Anthropological studies and findings have found that these people were very agriculturally savvy, and had great architecture skills. They are also believed to have developed sophisticated writings, astronomical systems, and more which influenced many other cultures to seek more and more knowledge.
The Maya, in disc golf terms, is an understable distance bomber! Beginner to Intermediate players will find the Maya to be an awesome straight flying distance driver, while advanced to open players will utilize the Maya for massive understable distance shots.

Welcome back to another Focus Friday, where we look at a certain mold or brand, and give you a discount so you can try it out for yourself. Today, we are taking a closer look at the Estonian manufacturer… Disctroyer
Disctroyer was created by two disc golfers who were searching for a way to make quality discs that would be color-coded for easy selection and top performance on the course. They worked to perfect their desired plastic blends to feel exactly how they wanted, then worked on their color and design coding to become the first company with color-coded discs.
These are the colors for the different discs, as determined by the largest, outside color on the flight plate: WHITE = Distance Driver YELLOW = Fairway Driver RED = Mid-Range BLUE = Putt & Approach
The stability of the disc is indicated by the use of the following symbols on the center of the flight plate: CIRCLE = Straight Flight STAR = Overstable Flight PLUS SYMBOL = Understable Flight

Welcome back to another Focus Friday, where we look at a certain mold or brand, and give you a discount so you can try it out for yourself. This weekend we are focusing on a strange, less popular disc that may become something you come to love… The Cheengz I One
The I-One was the first disc golf entry for the Cheengz brand. It is an all-purpose mid-range disc. It has a straight, predictable flight, great for narrow fairways, and is easy to handle for players at all levels. With a slightly larger diameter, it feels natural to players transitioning from Ultimate and other disc sports to disc golf.
The I-One also has a subtle ripple texture on the top and bottom of the flight plate for enhanced grip. It is also a great disc to throw for touch shorts or put through tiny gaps in a straight line to finish next to the pin on any obstructed approaches.

Infinite Discs currently has 20 different plastic variations! Choosing a certain plastic is an important decision when purchasing a new disc. This post is to help you navigate which plastic will be the right choice for you when purchasing from our lineup.
Innova Champion Discs is our mold manufacturer, therefore our plastic types are based on their plastic types. We will indicate the similarities below, but you can read about their plastic types HERE
PREMIUM PLASTICS
S-Blend: A somewhat firm, opaque plastic that flies true to the flight numbers. Compare to Innova’s ‘Star’ plastic.
Swirly S-Blend (various swirls within the plastic)
Splatter S-Blend (bits of recycled plastic added to the plastic)
Halo S-Blend (two-toned flight plate)
C-Blend: A firm, transparent plastic that has increased durability and tends to make molds more overstable. Compare to Innova’s ‘Champion’ plastic.
Metal Flake C-Blend (added metal flakes within the plastic)
Metal Flake Glow C-Blend (added metal flakes & glows in the dark)
Glow C-Blend (glows in the dark)
Gummy C-Blend (less-stiff than regular C-Blend)
Luster C-Blend (has an added shimmer)
Concrete (Luster and Metal Flake plastic combined)
G-Blend: A gummier feeling plastic that has added glimmer and grip. Compare to Innova’s ‘GStar’ plastic.
I-Blend: A softer plastic that is made from the recycled parts of S-Blend plastic. The ‘I’ stands for ‘Infinite Blend’ since this plastic is unique to our brand.
BASE PLASTICS
D-Blend: A base plastic that is firm and grippy, yet lacks durability. Compare to Innova’s ‘DX’ plastic.
Glow D-Blend (glows in the dark)
P-Blend: A durable and stiff base plastic. Compare to Innova’s ‘KC Pro’ plastic,
Glow P-Blend (glows in the dark)
X-Blend: A midgrade plastic that has a great balance of durability with a tacky, grippy feel. Compare Innova’s ‘XT’ plastic.
N-Blend: A stiff and grippy plastic, with an emphasized stiffness in the flight plate. Compare to Innova’s ‘Nexus’ plastic.
R-Blend: A soft plastic with good grip and some flexibility. Compare to Innova’s ‘R-Pro’ plastic.
*Signature Plastics: When you see plastics on our site labeled as ‘Signature _-Blend’ this means that the plastic price has been slightly increased to support the professional disc golfer who’s stamp is on that specific run of discs. There is nothing different about the plastic, only the price.
What plastic type should you choose?
Here is a breakdown of what each plastic is best suited for:
S-Blend: Any of the S-Blend plastics are versitile and best used for throwing. Ripping an S-Blend plastic off the tee or on an approach will result in an excellent flight.
C-Blend: Most* all of the C-Blend plastics are more durable yet less grippy than the other premium plastics. You will find that C-blend tends to be more overstable than all the other premium plastics., but is also a great choice for throwing.
*Gummy and MF Glow tend to be softer and grippier than the other C-Blend plastics
G-Blend: This plastic is the opposite of C-Blend. It is less durable, has increased grip, and tends to fly straighter. However, this plastic is just as good for throwing as all the other premium plastics.
I-Blend: This is the most basic of the premium plastics, but is still a good plastic for throwing. A fresh I-Blend mold will typically have the same stability as an S, G, or C-Blend mold, but it will be the first of the three to ‘beat in’ and become understable overtime.
D-Blend: This plastic is best suited for putters and approach discs. It is firm and gives you good grip, meaning it will have a better chance of hitting the chains and staying in the basket. This is generally the same for the P, X, N, & R Blends we have available, but with assorted types of grippiness and durability as explained above.
* Note that each run of a certain mold in a certain plastic will fly slightly differently than that same mold in that same plastic type from another run. This is due to the slight inconsistency of manufacturing for each run month to month; Innova can’t make all discs the same every single time. All of our stock stamps have run numbers on them to help indicate the differences.
Misprint/X-out
These terms are used interchangibly, but typically indicate the following:
X-out: Discs that are marked with an x-out indicator on our website mean they are ‘factory seconds.’ These molds did not get formed perfectly in the molding process and have some fundemental flaw in their design/plastic. However, most x-outs tend to fly much like their perfect counterparts. You may also see a small penned ‘X’ on the disc’s front flight plate.
Misprint: This indicates that the artwork on the disc was not stamped perfectly, and is therefore a flawed product. Most misprinted discs come with multiple stamps on them as an attempt to fix the stamping error before finishing the remaining run of discs.
We hope this post has been informative, and that you are able to more accurately choose the discs and plastics that are best suited for your disc golf needs. And as always…
