I've had five and they were all extremely slick compared to my mcpro aviars. Maybe I just bought the wrong ones? Are there certain ones with more grip?

What colors did you have??

 

[Jozzz]

The "proto" D-line stamped Ps feel great. I also have some older regular stamped ones that feel chalky. But if you give the slick ones a little use, wear and dirt should solve that problem.

Just wanted to say that the P3 is one of the most under rated disc's in the game right now. Overstable to fight the wind and ranges quite well for a "putter" mold. The glow version is fantastic.

Also, for those that don't like the dome on the P3, I highly recommend some hot water. I flattened a C-Line just to see how it would fly and it's a thing of beauty.

What can we expect from DM in 2015?

That's interesting, as for 2015 you will have to wait and see!

Yeah theres that, however you can then forget about throwing it in sanctioned events...

I think there is room in distance drivers. 11, 5, -1, 3 or something like that would be nice for some added distance. PD1,5?

Have you tried the DD if you're looking for a longer PD?

G line gremlin and p3 would be glorious if they molded up flat.

We will keep that in mind for future productions

Flat enough for ya? I did the hot water trick (actually the top became a little puddled because I think there was some low pressure between the rim and the weight I had on top) and also took it to sauna with me. Just for laughs. Will not be using this in regulation play obviously. For fooling around glow rounds mebbe.

Interestingly enough, it became less stable, well not flippy but the fade was eliminated almost completely. It is more like a touchey & glidey midrange now.

Interesting how it changed the flight

Can we please have McPro P2?

I believe the P-LINE P2 is the same plastic

p-line p2?

Correct

It's a slightly different pro blend.

There are older runs that are hard and slick. they are usually marked KP2 on the bottom

What colors did you have??

Most of the old white ones marked KP2 are slicker and harder feeling.

The "proto" D-line stamped Ps feel great. I also have some older regular stamped ones that feel chalky. But if you give the slick ones a little use, wear and dirt should solve that problem.

It's true they do get a lot softer after some good use.

I've had yellow, black and white. All were slicker than my McPros (pink) or my KC Aviars for that matter (yellow). I guess I am just crazy. Of course you probably have to be a little crazy to play this game as much as we all do, or would like to haha.

 

[Flick Maniac]

Yeah I do bag various DDs too, but they need to be well beaten in to achieve more distance vs PD. Something with just a little turn out of the box and speed 11-12 would be the perfect.

 

[DinosaurThunder]

Any plans for black friday or holiday promotions? Could we possibly get a teaser

The older P-LINE P2s were much slicker than the new ones. The ones feel a bit softer but still retain it's durability.

We might have a few things up our sleeves but we don't want to ruin the surprise.

 

[gerth_vader]

I would love to see an overstable disc that fits between my md3 and pd. basically replace my whippet. I'm surprised there are no real whippet competitors out there. 1.6 rim thickness, 1.2 rim depth. like a mini pd

 

[Snaques]

Isn't FD2 just that?

I picked up a C-P3 from our local PIAS on Sunday and it was almost as flat as the one that you flattened. It's flight is really close to that of a Classic Roc. It really does pair well with my Glow C-P3. It's flight numbers are more like 3|2|0|0. It is super straight.

Now, to my question. Does Discmania have any plans to produce a mold or two in the "3" fashion (i.e. Roc->Roc3, Shark->Shark3)?

Like the MD3 you mean?

 

[fasteddie]

DM already had the md1 and md2 before the "3" molds were released if I'm not mistaken. I though it just fit their established system.

I would love to see discmania produce:

Slim/shallow, FLAT, overstable, firm/tacky putter. (Rhyno/Zone/Piggy)

Slim/shallow, lots of HSS/with little LSS midrange (worn rocs, onterio cobras, R3)

Flat, pure beef, overtly overstable utility disc (Gator,Whippet,Drone)

granted I absolutely love my stash of firm pro rhynos, flat top gators, and onterio cobras, these are the slots yet to be contested by DM.

ps. I think that flat md2s may be comparable to KCobras but I've never had luck finding one in person, anybody find them similar?

 

[DinosaurThunder]

How can we make G-line DD's a thing or move up the release list? The glide on that disc would be unreal!

 

[Jozzz]

Disagree. G-line PD2s, dammit.

 

[OB Four]

did they ever announce who the new sponsored team member was?

I've thought the same thing, but those Innova discs are pretty secure in my bag. Discmania has absolutely taken over my driver selection on the course. FD, FD2 and 4 PDs. The only Innova drivers I have now are Roadrunner, Firebird and Pro Leopard (which may eventually be replaced with S-FD if it wears in right).

True.

Ryan knows better than me, but the flat MD2's I have are like drifty Roc3's. The King Cobras I've thrown had much more fade to them.

I'm by no means an expert on the midranges though, I'm just learning them myself.

 

[elmexdela]

ever going to make the shipping prices cheaper out of the store? thats the only thing holding me back from ordering a handful of discs from the discmania store.

 

[DinosaurThunder]

Flat, pure beef, overtly overstable utility disc (Gator,Whippet,Drone)

potential for an MD4 perhaps? The one slot IMO missing in the mid lineup :thmbup:
