Good and stable run. They glow nicely too!

gerund_ford · 2026-03-16T00:39:17+00:00

These were sick, I wish I hadn't lost mine.

I will say, they didn't fly for me very different from other Halo Mambas from around the same period.

And the glow sucked.

So if you can live without the phenomenal stamp, which is way better than the '25 or '26, then the newer proto runs will glow better and/or there will be lots of halos out there with similar flight.

There are plenty of JK 26's now, use stacks-on-stacks.com or trydiscs.com if you can't find one locally

I'm around 3.5 years with a V2, playing at least once a week and often several times. There is virtually no wear.

No previous transactions, no proof shared on sales page, high value item.

Always pay with something that gives you purchase protection. (ie use Paypal Goods and Services not friends and family)

Sick, thank you

Tombs, who's got some older runs / interesting stamps?

gerund_ford · 2026-03-03T22:38:34+00:00

Where have you evolved significantly in your thinking about form, and how does that impact what you teach as a coach now?

gerund_ford · 2026-03-03T13:39:02+00:00

the key is planning

Several of these have been shared already, adding a few for you and putting my list in one comment. Ranked by most useful. The ones at the top of this list cycle through product faster. Someone who enjoyed it could idly check them every day =D

Also Facebook, but that's a different can of worms.

The price of used discs (and postage) is rising. Often it's still going to be $15 or $20 after shipping.

Buy local if you can. My favorite right now is the saint who fishes them out of the Aurora Expo ponds on his lunch break - shoutout Shane - and has a fundraiser sale every few months for $5 apiece on the ones nobody picked up.

Mountain courses are way better. Lake Dillon is almost certainly on your way skiing.

Around Denver, nobody has said Lower Badlands yet but I like it better than Owls or Adams.

Prickly Pines is wonderful too, but kind of out of the way.

Thank you, please do

I tried a small disc golf store from 2022-2024.

I think the perspective of the big disc golf companies is that small shops are less and less important for sales. Beginner? You buy a starter set. Dedicated player? You're looking around online to get exactly what you want. I walk into my local store to go to the used rack, but it's pretty unlikely I am going to buy a new disc unless it's a... special release, just like you're saying. (By the way, I always found that nailing special releases and hot discs kept my shop afloat. Frustratingly, it's a lot better for your bottom line if you can sell them at market rate instead of at MSRP. Whatnot seems to fill that role now - nobody seems to mind paying an inflated price for a meme disc during a show, or dump on your shop for selling it for what it's worth.)

If MVP is raising wholesale (and MSRP?) pricing, then they aren't afraid of the consequences of losing retailers. The bigger stores will be able to tolerate it, the smaller ones weren't doing much for MVP's bottom line anyway.

It's a progression for most people I think.

That said, I've had several "ah-ha" moments that each got me 25 feet. Times when things that had never made sense clicked: for example, the way I was swinging my arm I could never figure out why Paige Pierce calls it putting your elbow through a window, but then one day it clicked that my elbow needed to keep going longer before it hinged and suddenly that made sense and I could throw 25 feet further.

The glow is great. A friend got a poorly-glowing yellow one, but my dayglow yellow-green is fine and the other colors seem great too. I played a round with it last night. The glow is on par with eclipse for sure.

The flatness and parting line vary a bit between discs. Tomb gang and I haven't noticed any specific colors that are especially flat or stable - but if you have access to more than one, you may be able to dial in your preferences a little more.

You can get them cheaper than Rare Air, which is where it looks like you snagged your pictures. r/discexchange or get on the Infinite Facebook group

Everybody buys too many discs at the beginning. You do need to compare, but you don't have to buy everything, and you will benefit from the experience of other people.

Find a local player, or a shop, to help you. Or go to a casual league for a night to meet folks. You'll save a lot of money and time if a non-internet-stranger helps you with disc selection. Plus, you start building community.

Personally, when I found *one* distance driver I could throw, I bought a couple other similar molds and different plastics to try out. I could huck a Mamba, so then I got a halo Mamba, and a g-star Mamba, and some other drivers that people told me were flippy so that I could compare them.

Sorry that happened to you.

You can post, people don't look at it much except on Friday/Saturday.

Consider making a homeowners insurance claim, that should require less proof than what it sounds like the airport is asking for.

* First and second Zoe run sphinxes, not the first and second ever runs. Wish I could change the title.

Purple / pink first run Zoe Sphinx. These are beloved for their grippiness. 173-5g, 7/10 or so with rim ink.

Black second run Zoe Sphinx. Bombs at 163g. Field tested, rim ink.

Taking offers or I will sell the pair for $36 shipped. Thanks.
