[Question] Most iconic disc from each brand

[GregC]

Its funny, everyone has the wizard for gateway! They are awesome.

I think it is a good sign when most of the answers are mids or putters. Brands should be built around their mids and putters because that's where you can pick up the most strokes. Drive for show, putt for dough.

On the flip side, what else does Gateway have?

 

[Moose33]

^Spirit! They are awesome. Their goofy OS discs are pretty decent in general.

I always liked both the Element and the Element-X. I bagged them in Evo plastic, they were in my bag that got stolen :thmbdown:

Not exactly iconic molds, underrated might be more accurate.

I hear ya. My point was that Gateway has other discs, but we don't hear much of them at all.

Sorry to hear your bag was stolen. . May karma catch up to the filthy perp.

That transpired back in '06, almost a decade ago. The guy probably sold all of my Elite Z and 11x Champ stuff for a tidy profit too. The jerk.

I wish gateway still made the old elementx. Some of the blends were awesome and they paired better with an element than a truth does a verdict.

 

[pjhayes7]

Innova: Aviar, Roc, and Firebird (nearly every Innova player carries some form of these discs where the teebird/eagle kind of compete for the same spot in the bag and same for the destroyer/boss
Lat: River and Pure
DD: Judge and Truth
Discraft: Buzzz and Zone (until the Suspect and Harp, the Zone was maybe the most unique and useful disc from any manufacturer)
Axiom: Envy
MVP: Volt
Prodigy: ?
Gateway: Is any company more associated with one disc than Gateway and the Wizard? Only companies that just make one disc.

 

[teemkey]

Prodigy: ?

Probably something with a letter followed by a number. Just sayin'

Yeah, I just don't know what would be iconic from them. I am sure that they make good discs and love the feel of 400 plastic, but just nothing comes to mind immediately when I think of their discs like with some other companies.

They will be releasing a similar mid at some point in the future. The Karma currently features the Element X top but has the newer rounded inner rim.

Gateway will be releasing all of their mids with a conventional style inner rim next year.

I will also be tooling a new, more concave bottom to make each of them more overstable and feature a more prominent bead. This should make them more HSS and LSS :thmbup:
