New Disc Golf Disc: DGA Tempest

DGA has announced a brand new disc, the Tempest!

The Tempest is a new understable distance driver, with the flight numbers of 13, 5, -3, 2. This is DGA’s third new mold of 2018, and we’re super excited for it’s release. This disc looks like it should achieve maximum distance for slower arms and huge turnover shots for big arms. While we haven’t thrown this disc yet, its numbers suggest big glide, lots of turn, but still a decent amount of fade.

The First Flight edition will feature artwork by John Dorn with only 750 available. There will be regular First Flight stamps in the mix as well, before they switch to the regular stock stamp.

 

The Tempest is set to be released on Friday, September 14th.

If you are waiting for these discs to be in stock, be sure to set up an inventory alert here on the Tempest page. You can also see some finer details, such as the dimensions of the disc.

Top Selling Discs in 2018 (So Far)

Since we missed the Quarter 2 post, we decided to dig a little deeper and give you an update on the best selling discs of the year… so far. (Aug 27, 2018)

Without further ado, here’s the chart. Some comments will be below!

Here are some notable mentions:

  • The Destroyer is still killing it, by a lot. It trumps the overall category and dominates the Top 10 Distance Drivers by almost triple the #2 spot.
  • 63.6% of Destroyers sold are regular Star plastic. The next best selling Destroyer plastic is Star X-Outs. So Star obviously dominates the destroyer market.
  • D-Line and P-Line P2s are pretty close in popularity. It just depends on what your preference is.
  • 61.9% of Firebirds are Nate Sexton Champion Color Glow Firebirds. That does say a lot for how the Pros and their Tour Series discs can influence the market and the discs people use. A recent example is…
  • The Sonic comes in at #11 on the Putt & Approach Category, just missing the charts. This is entirely due to massive amounts of Pre-Orders for the Garrett Gurthie Signature Sonic that will be shipped early Sept.
  • 62.8% of Aviars sold are of the McPro variety, reiterating the fact that Professionals have a big influence. This stat on our chart reflects only the regular Aviar mold. KC Aviars, for example, are their own mold and rank by themselves (#18 best selling putt & approach).
  • The P2 holds strong as top selling putter this year.
  • The Buzzz holds its regular spot at the top of the mids, with the Comet coming in at the #10 spot.
  • The Lace made the top 10 Distance Drivers. Why? Because Vibram stopped producing Disc Golf Discs and the Laces are being gobbled up. At this point in time we only have 2 Laces left in stock. R.I.P.
  • The Pharaoh and the Exodus both made top 10 sellers in their categories… but they are only sold by us at this time. Regardless, they are awesome discs and sold very well. Hopefully a deserved spot on the lists, as people have seemed to like them!

That’s all until the Q3 results in October!

Best-Selling Disc Golf Shoes at Infinite Discs

Infinite Discs is still new to the shoe market, seeking out high quality shoes that disc golfers can count on to last through the rigors of the game in all conditions and on all fairways. Though we have not had much in the way of shoes to offer so far, we thought it would be worth sharing the ranking so far on the sale of those shoes we’ve had.

First of all, the Latitude 64 T-Link shoes still hold the top spot as best-selling shoes all-time through our website, but those shoes are no long available and customers have not been able to order them from us during most of the 2018 season. So, excluding the T-Link shoes, here is the current top 5 best-sellers, calculated from shoes currently available on the Infinite Discs website:

#1 – Adidas Terrex Swift R2 GTX

#2 – Adidas Terrex AX2R

#3 – Adidas Terrex Swift R2

#4 – Adidas Terrex Agravic Speed

#5 – Discmania Lunatic Disc Golf Shoe

By way of disclaimer, the sales figures for shoes are highly influenced by the sizes and colors available, and we have a limited quantity on hand. We will strive to increase the selection so that our customers have more shoe options, with multiple models, colors, and sizes available to fit everybody’s needs. But we will take a little time to grow the shoe selection, as a small, disc-golf-centric business. If you wear a certain size and desire a certain model in that size, just let us know.

Infinite Discs Introduces Charity Fundraiser Disc Stamp

Infinite Discs has released a special stamp that will be used across several different brands and disc models in order to raise money for specific charities. The idea came up when Will, the mailman who has been picking up packages from Infinite Discs for several years, mentioned that he wanted to put together a disc golf event to raise money for his niece with Leukemia. Of course, many disc golfers have put together similar fundraisers for specific as well as for general causes which are wonderful and that do a lot of good to help those in need. So, while Will wasn’t the first to use disc golf as a fundraiser, we wanted to do a little something extra to contribute.

Emma is Treated for Leukemia

Infinite Discs worked together with a top-notch artist to get a beautiful stamp design featuring a hummingbird hoovering by a flower. Not only will the discs with the stamp be used at the event itself, but they are being offered online to anybody who likes the stamp. That way, Infinite Discs can pitch in an extra $1 per disc sold to the fundraiser, paying directly to the family of the Leukemia patient.

BROWSE THE CHARITY DISCS IN STOCK HERE

The intention is to continue using the stamp from time to time, but with different worthy causes that can directly benefit individuals in need. While sales will directly contribute to the treatment of Will’s niece for a few months, it is planned to bring back the stamp for future charity fundraisers as well. Every little contribution helps when it comes to alleviating the emotional and financial stress that hits families in crisis.

Infinite Discs Partners with Thought Space Athletics

Infinite Discs is happy to announce that we have recently partnered with Thought Space Athletics, a disc golf design and special products company from Maine that has been adding some top-notch visual flare to disc golf products for a few years. They have a wonderful knack for putting together fun and eye-catching stamp designs and have also unleashed some great apparel and other accessories in the disc golf market.

Infinite Discs is kicking off the relationship by featuring a couple of their recent stamp designs in our online store. First of all, you can find the Elevation Ambassador mandala style stamp on a run of discs from Trilogy (Dynamic Discs, Latitude 64, and Westside).

We’ve also featured their fun Birdie Brigade stamp on a run of popular Innova disc models.

BROWSE THE SELECTION OF DISCS WITH THOUGHT SPACE ATHLETICS STAMPS HERE

Infinite Discs will be running these stamps on other brands, with these two introductory designs switching from Trilogy to Innova, plus hitting other popular brands. We’ll also be sure to introduce other Thought Space Athletics stamp designs as they are created.

Also watch for some great stamps that Thought Space Athletics designed for Infinite Discs, including the Infinite Discs Scarab Mandala and the upcoming signature edition Garrett Gurthie SLAB.

Our goal at Infinite Discs has always been to provide our customers with the largest selection of disc choices, from different brands, to different models, to different plastics, to different stamp designs. We’re happy to work with Thought Space Athletics in that effort.

New SLAB and ANUBIS Add to the Infinite Discs Lineup

Two new discs in the Infinite Discs brand lineup were released on August 3rd, 2018. Here is a quick look at the SLAB Utility Driver and the ANUBIS mid-range.

Metal Flake C-Blend SLAB

While the SLAB boast a “speed 12” rim for higher speed release and would regularly fall into the “distance driver” category, we felt like the massive overstability of the SLAB merited a categorization of Utility Driver. Such an overstable driver also deserves a notoriously overstable plastic blend, so we launched the disc in Metal Flake C-Blend.

This is a driver that you’ll love whenever you want a hard, dramatic end fade. It will work wonders when thrown into headwinds and is a must-have for high, spike-hyzer throws.

We tried to make sure that this first run of Slab discs would come out with a very flat top so that it would feel comfortable when used to slice through the air either with a powerful backhand or forehand release.

I-Blend ANUBIS

On the opposite side of the spectrum from the Slab, the ANUBIS was designed to be a user-friendly mid-range disc that is flexible and easy to control for players at any level. You can direct the Anubis with the angle of release and throwing speed to follow about any path you put it on. We felt that the perfect introduction to this great disc would be in affordable yet long-lasting I-Blend plastic.

Try out the Anubis in lighter weights for beginners or for young players, or in the heavier, max weight for experience players who want an obedient mid-range for precision approaches.

Infinite Discs Signature Disc Models

Earlier this year, Infinite Discs released only 100 Garrett Gurthie signature edition Pharaoh distance drivers as part of the first run, and they sold out almost immediately. We’re happy to announce that the 2nd run of Swirly S-Blend Pharaoh drivers are coming soon, and Garrett will once again have a signature edition with a completely new stamp design. Watch for the Garrett Gurthie signature Pharaoh, coming soon!

Garrett also loved testing the new Infinite Discs Slab and will have his own signature edition of the Metal Flake C-Blend Slab with his own, special stamp design. Watch for those signature Slab overstable utility drivers, coming soon!

Here is a sneak peak at the design for the upcoming Garrett Gurthie Slab:

Stylistic Disc Title Stamps on Trilogy

We’re always striving at Infinite Discs to carry a huge variety of disc makes and molds, but also a huge variety in terms of visual appeal. We feel like everybody has their own taste when it comes to the artwork that they prefer on their discs. Some people prefer stock stamps, while others prefer custom stamps with detailed images. Some people prefer simplistic, while others prefer intense. Some people even prefer blanks.

One of the new campaigns that we’ve started in 2018 is to include some simply, retro-style stamps on discs from Dynamic Discs, Westside, and Latitude 64 that feature the name of the disc. Here are the first ones, which have been received with positive feedback so far.

Dynamic Discs MAVERICK

Westside HARP

Dynamic Discs (Prime plastic) JUDGE

 

We have also run some basic, bar-logo stamped discs for both Westside Discs and for Dynamic Discs on their most popular disc models. So, if you love the simple elegance of the brand name stamped on your discs, you have that option as well.

As we add these new stamps, we’re trying to make them easier to search on the Infinite Discs website. Here are two handy links that will take you to the Dynamic Discs Bar Logo stamp and the Prime Judge stamp and Huk Lab stamped discs. For the other three mentioned, you’ll have to search within those disc models to find the special stamps.

Let us know in the comments which discs you’d like to see with a simple, appealing title stamp. We’ll do our best to keep the options coming!
