New releases from Discmania

We are proud to introduce our two latest disc models: The P3 and the MD3. The P3 is somewhat of a hybrid between a putter and a midrange, a stable and dependable flyer that cuts through the wind and fades reliably to the basket. The P3′s best weapon is it’s versatility – it’s an awesome flyer off the tee and a great disc for putting too. For the fans of fade-in putters out there this disc is a must try.

Reinventing the stamp design

For this release we also really wanted to hear out what our fans had to say about the stamp design. Many of you guys have been requesting us to run the minimal and simplistic type of stamp we used to do back when we got started. For P3 we re-designed the D-line stamp and skipped the extra name we’ve used in most of our latest models. The disc itself is currently available with two stamps: The regular production stamp is available throughout Europe and the Discmania First Run stamp is the one currently available in the US.

Retooling for premium plastics

This first release of the D-P3 comes with sort of a prototype configuration. We were very happy with mold as it is, but as we wanted to be able to mold the P3 in C-line material in the future a minor tweak to the mold had be made for the future runs of the P3. The retooling will result in a touch more beefy flight pattern.

Introducing: the Glow C-line MD3

The MD3 is disc we here at Discmania are extremely exited about. It’s a fast and stable midrange disc that performs very well in all wind conditions. Designed with the power players in mind, the MD3 can handle a lot of power without flexing and always comes back down with a dependable fade. Compared to the Discmania hit midrange MD2, the MD3 is more stable both in high and in low speed.

First release benefits the European Open

This initial release of the MD3 comes in the form of a fundraiser for the European Open, a tournament in which we here at Discmania are deeply involved in. The Glow C-line material is extremely durable and feels great in your hand. As you probably already guessed, it also glows in the dark. Like all European Open fundraisers, this one also features a stamp design made by Disc Golf Artist Skeet Scienski and showcasing one of the great carnivores of the Finnish Wilderness – The Wolverine. Regular production C-line MD3 will be available later this summer.

A Wolf on the loose

With the main event of the European Disc Golf year, the European Open getting closer, we have released a new highly collectible fundraiser disc for the event – C-line TD2 “The Wolf”. The nickname and the graphic of this disc come from the series of carnivores that inhabit the Finnish wilderness. Previously in the series we’ve released the Glow C-line PD “The Bear”. The stamp of both these discs were designed by Disc Golf artist Skeet Scienski.

The previously unreleased C-line TD2 was the perfect match for the Wolf in this release, since the TD2 is also known for it’s sneaky and quick moves on the fairway. The TD2 is best suited for anyone seeking to get more distance with less effort. It is a substantially understable driver with great glide. The TD2 is an optimal choice for a distance driver for players who throw less than 90 meters.

A pack of Wolves in their natural habitat.

The TD2 is by far the most understable disc in the our line-up with it’s high speed turn rating of -4. Packed with a great glide, this disc is easy to throw far with a little effort. Awesome for rollers and long turning shots for intermediate to pro player. This fundraiser release is the very first time the TD2 is available in C-line material, and will likely only increase its value in the future.

Introducing the Glow C-line PD

Out of the countless different mold and plastic variations we get requests for, the Glow C-line PD has been on top of the list for quite a while now. Finally we have good news for all you PD freaks:) out there. The Glow PD C-PD rolls out on Monday the February 18th in the US, as a limited fundraiser release for the European Open 2013. We are very happy to be able to release such a special disc, benefitting such a special event. By purchasing the Glow C-line PD, you directly benefit the most notable Disc Golf tournament in the European Disc Golf scene.

Being our most popular mold, the PD is familiar to many of our readers. One of the best features of the PD is it’s versatility. We know a whole bunch of people who cover all of their driver needs with a selection of PD’s in different plastics and stages of wear. What the Glow C-line PD will bring to the table is extreme durability accompanied with very dependable flight path in just about all conditions. This disc features great torque resistance and extremely reliable fade at the end of its flight. Unlike any of our previous releases, the Glow C-line PD glows in the dark.

The King of the Forest

The European Open fundraisers will be a collectable set of 5 different Discmania / Innova models, the rest of which will be published later on. Each fundraiser model will highlight one of the great predators of Finnish wilderness. For a creature this majestic, the Glow C-line PD was an obvious choice to be paired up with the Bear stamp, designed by Disc Golf artist Skeet Scienski. This is the first run made of the PD mold in Glow C-line material and it will be highly collectable.

The bear is the greatest and most powerful animal in Finnish nature. Thus it is entitled to its status as the dreaded and respected ruler of the Finnish wilderness. To ancient Finns the bear was a holy creature and a subject of worship. They dared not to speak its name out of fear of summoning it, which is why there are over 200 names for a bear in the Finnish language. Now we don’t think choosing the PD to reflect a creature this magnificent was not a bad choice at all, how about you?
UPDATE:
Glow C-PD will also be available in Europe in the beginning of March.
