Skyiron Discs leaving the game

[Skyiron Discs]

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 the plastic consumer products industry. Unfortunately, this has led to conflict of interest concerns and I'm going to bow out of the disc manufacturing game.

I won't be returning to this post to answer questions, just wanted something in the dg archives. Keep being awesome dg community, I'll see you on the course.

no stamp art?

There's an old thread somewhere in here where he was tossing around some stamp ideas. Looks like they never materialized.

Didn't DGCR members help with the art on the disc? I remember a thread about it. Sucks their gone. Disc was ok. Good plastic but a very shallow rim and SUPER understable.

I just got a flagship for Christmas, have not thrown it yet.

It's a second run, which did have a new stamp based on feedback from this forum (I think).

It was cool seeing "Columbus, OH" stamped on the back of the disc.

I'm going to speculate that this "conflict of interest" has to do with him molding discs for Prodigy now. opcorn:

Prodigy is a myth! A myth, I tell you! It's the boogeyman parents tell to their kids who work at Innova and Discraft.

Flagship came out much more understable than intended. That being said, the Flagship I have is a phenomenal roller. So much so that now I need to pick up a little stack of them for my future rolling needs.

I'm anxious to try one out, if it's that understable.

Because there were limited runs it is possible mine is slightly flukey. It went quickly from understable to easy roller in the stability spectrum. I do want to get a hold of some more so I have several back-ups.

what is this prodigy u speak of?

I was working with Ashton to make stickers for SkyIron so it's sad to see them go.
