yeah they have my name and number on them, what is this ribbon you speak of?
I tried tis for the first time at our Ice Bowl and it worked great. I woulda lost more then 10 discs had I not ribboned them. We were playing in 3+ ft of snow and the only person to lose a disc in the snow was the one person without ribbons. This does not affect the flight of the disc and more then trying to throw in the deep snow already does
These "Ribboning Instructions" were handed down to me from our ol' friend Dusan, who, while watching my feeble attempt to ribbon my disc, showed me the correct way that will allow for the "best-flight-pattern-considering-there's-a-ribbon-on-your-disc". So, if you're a true Winter DGer :
Items Needed
-Ribbon. (Yes, the kind you use to wrap gifts, but the thin variety)
-Duct Tape
-Scissors or cutting knife
-Disc
1) Cut a three foot-long length of ribbon.
2) Bite off a 2 inch piece of duct tape.
3) Cut a small slice in the middle of duct tape.
4) From the non-sticky side, pierce the slice in the duct tape with one end of the ribbon, and pull 1 inch of it through.
5) Carefully cut the exposed ribbon down the middle to the duct tape, so that you can now have 2 pieces of ribbon sticking through the tape, like a snake's forked tongue. Pull one ribbon down to attach to the left side of duct tape, and the other to the right side.
6) Now attach the aerodynamically-correct duct tape and ribbon assembly to the underbelly of your disc, trying to place the slice in the center of your disc.
