    [Question] Potential tech standards changes?

    Chuck was there he watched the presentation. It was really bizarre. Nobody asked any questions other than myself. Harold didn't give any reasons or explain anything other than saying heavy, sharp, wide wing discs are ruining the sport and this model is not sustainable. That's it! Motion made...

    I wanted to wait until the minutes from the spring summit were posted before bring up this subject. It was only given a couple of lines in the minutes but I would like to explain what happened.

    The problem with the PDGA surveys is that they are done online. So kind of silly to ask who has Internet access?

    Board Candidate Announcement

    Very good questions, which is why I started my reply with we have tech standards that can't be enforced. It would be easy to spot check most of the manufacturers at NT's and majors but more difficult to include all. I think just the notion that the pdga would be doing random spot checks would go...
