    Skyiron Discs leaving the game

    Hi community! I'll make this short, most players don't know of my company. I've been manufacturing discs for 2 years, I only had one on the market 'Flagship' and was about to come out with a second this coming season. My work in manufacturing discs eventually led into a full-time gig inside...

    Skyiron Flagship - Run2, Art

    A few notes from the OP. I appreciate the constructive responses. The gears idea came from my engineering background + Skyiron name. The wings seem very popular but I'm hesitant to use them as a logo because a few other DG companies use that idea. Answers to other questions, I probably won't...

    Skyiron Flagship - Run2, Art

    The gears were my idea, Les was kind enough to put them together for me. This is Les' original logo/disc redesign which was posted in another thread. I should have posted this one up top as well. I apologize I don't have this art in the same format so try not to let the disc and color throw you...

    Skyiron Flagship - Run2, Art

    Hello DGCR Community! For those that don't know me (I'm still new) I own/operate 'Skyiron Discs' and we currently manufacture one distance driver called Flagship. Just search Skyiron or Flagship on this forum and you will see plenty of positive reviews about the plastic and flight of the disc...

    Skyiron Disc Golf

    Just a small update, I've sent out information to about 200 disc shops around the US and Canada and some orders are coming in from small shops and online retailers. I appreciate all the support, comments, ideas, and constructive criticism. A lot of members have contacted me personally and...

    I have some plans but for now I'm just trying to get my brand and Flagship out the door.

    Thanks for all the feedback. I have a stack of address I'll be sending discs out tomorrow to a range of different players and play styles. Hopefully those reviews will start to pop in early next week. I'm going to close the door on any more reviewers for now.

    I'll hit each of your points, I'll try not to get defensive. 1. You are right, and I have sent the discs out to more amateurs than people in the pro league because I agree with you 100%. I made a disc that is accessible to the majority of players and I want reviews from them. 2. I like my logo...

    Awesome Cheifstang. I'm not looking to get my discs to only professionals, I was just looking to find some active players that knew what they were talking about so the community would get accurate reviews.

    The plastic is clear + the coloring. The red is slightly see-through, the blue and orange are pretty opaque. I've never tried to chemically remove the print. One player I've sent a disc to is involved in stamping and he will add that kind of information in his review.

    Sure shoot me an e-mail, a review from you can't hurt. A couple reviews on DGCR would do wonders for me.

    El-Kabong that looks really awesome. I personally like the simplicity of my print but I've quickly learned that it is unpopular! My second run I come gere to get some feedback before I slap it on my disc! Print aside, I love how Flagship flies and I'm very proud of it. Hopefully a few upcoming...

    I appreciate all the feedback (even the negative stuff). I'm starting to work with local retailers and build the brand. I seem to have underestimated the importance of the stamp! I think I'll make a change when I do another run. :doh: I'm interested in sending a few discs out to prominent...

    The tooling is mostly an aesthetic choice. It slightly improves grip because it is an "imperfection" at the disc surface. The disc doesn't feel rough, if you closed your eyes and held the disc you would not be able to tell which direction the tooling runs, or even notice it is there. It's not...

    Hello DG Course Review, I'm Ashton VanDemark owner of Skyiron Discs. Let me address a few of the concerns mentioned on this thread from my point of view. Hype/Advertising - I've been keeping the company and website from getting out there and catching a lot of buzz until now. This is a new...
