Two Hot New Releases–Prodigy A2 and Kastaplast Grym X

Leave a comment

Today we feature two different new release discs from two different manufacturers. The Prodigy A2 and the Kastaplast Grym X are now available for your enjoyment!

Prodigy A2

Prodigy A2

The Prodigy A2 is the third disc to be released in the new “Approach” Series in the Prodigy lineup. Its flight seems to be true to its name when compared with the A1 and A3. The simplest way I can think to describe it is it releases straight like an A3, but it dumps near the end like an A1. Like the other “A” series discs, the A2 has a nice rim that is comfortable in the hand and releases well. Prodigy throwers should be happy with this new disc.

Kastaplast Grym X

Kastaplast Grym X

The Grym X release has had a lot of hype for the Kastaplast fans, and from what we can tell it should live up to it. I found the Grym X to be pretty overstable right out of the box, but what I couldn’t believe is how well it seemed to glide. It felt like distance came very easy with this disc. I can see this becoming the new go to distance driver for Kastaplast throwers, and it may convert some others too!

Ricky Wysocki Driving Tips

Leave a comment

The mechanics for driving, putting, and approach shots are really pretty similar, just on a different scale. Professional disc golfer Ricky Wysocki gives a few tips to improve mechanics and disc golf driving distance for backhand throws, forehand throws, and rollers.

A few general driving tips:

  •  Use a straight forward run up. Line your shoulders up and run up in the direction you want to throw.
  • Don’t throw across your body. It’s bad for your back and bad for consistency.
  • Get your timing right. Driving distance and power is all about getting the mechanics right.


Backhand Drives:

  • Driving is all about timing and weight shift using both lower and upper body to maximize potential.
  • Straight back, and straight forward.
  • Don’t curl your wrist.
  • Throw essentially the same shot for a hyzer or anhyzer, just place your body in a different position.
  • Get a full reach back. You will get more power when you’re fully extended and reaching all the way back. Fully extend on the reach back and on the follow through.
  • Timing issues are best fixed with time, and practicing in the field.

Sidearm Drives:

  • The form between sidearm and backhand is actually pretty similar.
  • Reach all the way back and forward with your follow through in the direction you want to throw.
  • Keep your elbow tucked in close to your body right before you throw.
  • Lock your wrist to control the angle.

Plastic Addicts–Brand New Brand with Brand New Discs!

Leave a comment

Plastic Addicts Logo

There is a new name in the disc golf manufacturing world! Plastic Addicts is here with two hot new discs, the Intervention and the Habit. Plastic Addicts has been one of the top disc golf retailers in the Midwest for several years, and now they are looking to become even more of a household name with their new line of discs.

Top Line Intervention

The Intervention is a nice overstable distance driver that flies fast out of the hand. It glides well, and has a very dependable fade. Bigger arms should have no problem finding a slot for this disc in their bag.

Top Line Habit

The Habit is a stable to understable putt and approach disc, and it is money. This super wide rimmed disc is possibly the most glidey approach disc I have ever had the pleasure of throwing–and it really is a pleasure. The Habit is smooth out of the hand and goes for days. Already it has been a hot seller, and I think when the word gets out about this disc, we are going to have a hard time keeping it stocked!

One great thing about these Plastic Addicts discs that stood out to me the first time I held one is their plastic. Both the Top Line and the Main Line plastics feel great in the hand. For a company that is just getting started in the manufacturing business, I am very impressed by this first release. We are super excited to see what comes next from the guys at Plastic Addicts!

State of Disc Golf Survey – Personal Disc Inventory

Leave a comment

In the State of Disc Golf Survey 2016 results, we caught an interesting glimpse of how many discs players own vs. how many lost, and how many found. For those who attach themselves to their favorite discs, and for those who collect special edition discs, the loss factor can be an irritating one– especially when the discs are clearly marked with a name and phone number. According to the survey, most players are courteous enough to give the original owner a call when the information is marked on the disc.  67.7% replied that they, “Try to return them to the owner, but keep them if I can’t make contact.” 34.8% said that they return the disc to a lost and found.

When it comes to how many discs lost, and how many discs are found, here are the statistics gathered in the survey:

Most of those who replied claimed to have lost somewhere between 1-6 discs in the year 2015. Quite a number claimed to have lost none. From these results, we can see that most of us lose discs, but not in extreme quantities. The question then becomes this: Are those discs found and added to another bag?

 

Most of the players who responded claimed to have found and kept either zero discs, or only 1-3 discs.  Given the chart comparisons, it would appear that not quite as many discs are found as are lost, meaning that most of us come out on the losing end of the lost-and-found equation.

By a large margin, we add many more discs to our bags through retail purchases, both in brick-and-mortar stores and online. These are the numbers provided by players in regards to the number of discs purchased in the year 2015:

0 discs 3.9%
1-3 discs 7.8%
4-6 discs 11.6%
6-9 discs 13.1%
10-14 discs 18.7%
15-19 discs 11.7%
20-29 discs 13.4%
30-39 discs 7.2%
40-59 discs 6.9%
60-79 discs 1.6%
80-99 discs 1.2%
100-149 discs 1.8%
150-199 discs .4%
200+ discs .6%

There appears to be a very equal spread through the quantities, with a few people buying more than 100 discs in a year. So, with those purchases, how many total discs do most of us own?

0 discs .2%
1-3 discs .5%
4-6 discs 1.1%
6-10 discs 4.1%
11-15 discs 6%
16-20 discs 7.4%
21-30 discs 16%
31-40 discs 12.8%
41-60 discs 15.7%
61-80 discs 8.1%
81-100 discs 7.6%
101-149 discs 7%
150-199 discs 3.5%
200+ discs 10%

Again, there is a pretty equal spread, with most of us owning between 20 and 60 discs. There is a solid 10% who own more than 200 discs. Those are undoubtedly the players who cross over into the realm of disc aficionado and enthusiast. Some of us simply can’t resist new plastic!

New Innova Releases Today! ProtoStar Mirage and Pro Thunderbird

Leave a comment

Star Mirage

Star Mirage

The Innova Mirage is here! The Mirage is the newest member of the Innova “VTech” family. The Mirage is described as being a low profile putter that can be used for a variety of shots. New players will find the minimal fade and straight to turning flight makes this a great putter for beginner disc golfers, while more experienced throwers can use the disc as a roller or for turnover shots. Our current inventory of the Innova Proto Star Mirage is available now.

Pro Thunderbird

Pro_Thunderbird

The highly popular Innova Thunderbird is now available in Innova’s Pro plastic blend. These first ones we got in at the shop feel very good, and they look and feel almost like Star Plastic. They have a nice soft feel that is very comfortable in the hand. You can check out our current inventory of the Pro Thunderbird at https://infinitediscs.com/Innova-Thunderbird/Pro

New MVP/Axiom Releases! 23mm Drivers!

One comment

Big news from the MVP/Axiom world today! They announced three brand new driver molds, including two new MVP molds that will be the first MVP discs with 23mm rim drivers! Here is what MVP had to say about these three new drivers:

MVP Nitro

Neutron Nitro

“The MVP Nitro is a stable-overstable distance driver from the new high speed 23mm class.  Nitro falls in the general stability lineage of Servo, Volt, Tesla, and Photon, with a turn-resistant profile that covers ground and guarantees a fade finish.  Average throwers may need lighter weights or headwinds to achieve what little turn is offered by Nitro, while power throwers will find a workable and responsive shallow turn.”

MVP Octane

Neutron Octane

“The MVP Octane is a stable-understable distance driver from the new high speed 23mm class.  Octane falls in the general stability lineage of Switch, Amp, Inertia, and Wave, with a slight-turn profile that holds long and straight until its fade finish.  The 23mm Octane is designed to be relatively less understable than its 21.5mm counterpart Wave. Average throwers should see straight flights with fade, while power throwers will be able to hyzerflip for max distance and tailwind lines.”

Axiom Defy

Neutron Defy

“The Defy is a straight-stable 21.5mm distance driver from Axiom Discs.  The Defy is straight with a nice bite of overstability at the end, and is best described as a heavily seasoned MVP Photon or a longer Axiom Crave.  Like the Crave the Defy exhibits remarkable resistance to turnover even at high power.

As a 21.5mm class GYRO™ driver, the Defy is designed to hit a midpoint of stability between two MVP Disc Sports models, the Photon and Wave.  The Defy will debut in grippy opaque dual-color Neutron plastic.”

23mm Drivers

“The 23mm class cores are deeper than typical MVP drivers to afford more glide for distance, and feature a nice dome not typically seen in MVPdrivers.  From its shape to its weight distribution, the 23mm class is built for distance.
The 23mm class features four models — Energy, Nitro, Octane, and Catalyst, with their stability spectrum more evenly spaced than the 21.5mm class.  In other words, Nitro and Octane will not have as great of a divide in stability as is seen between the Photon and Wave.”
