Vibram has recently started making discs, right now they have 2 putters out-VP and Summit. They are testing a 3rd, the Ridge which will be out sometime late spring.

VP- Over stable
Ridge- Stable
Summit- Under stable

I'll have a handful of these in the different plastics that anyone can toss or putt around with. I will also soon have their newest plastic, X-Link Soft Eco.

Dear Disc,
Please go where I want you to go, Not where I threw you.
Sincerely,

Next time I'm up that way, you can test em out.

I can't wait to get some softer versions of these discs.

Very cool man. I hope one day I will be able to say something similar about myself. Gotta get into pro div first I suppose and there is still my disc company too. I really need to come up with some ideas. Workin the cube life really kills my creativity......

Wow they are compression molded. Could be because that is a process they are not only familiar with but they have been using to make soles for shoes for years....I am positive most discs are injection molded. But I could be wrong. Now I will have to do some research.

I thought discs came from a disc mine in the ground.

Dan, I have got a deal for you. A prime piece of property with a mine on it. The vein is so rich there are all kinds of prime discs just waiting for you to dig them up! CE Leopards, first run Rock's, you name it, it is there. Make me an offer.
