There's a brand out of New Zealand called "RPM" that is starting to make it's way into Canada, and I recently picked up an intriguing mid of theirs called the Piwakawaka from a local who visited NZ. A bit of digging and they come up as available at in the USA as well: http://www.gottagogottathrow.com/discs/rpm.html
As you can see from the picture, the Piwakawaka has "PDGA approved" right in the stamp. However, when I look up the disc on the PDGA approved disc list (http://www.pdga.com/documents/pdga-approved-discs), nothing from RPM is in the list. I wanted to see the approved max weight because the discs are very heavy, some get up to 185 though I opted for 180.
Are there circumstances under which the disc can be PDGA approved but not in the list?
