I don’t think the dimples make it fly further but it gives you a good consistent grip on it. So you never have to worry about your grip slipping or gripping it wrong. This could also make your throws more consistent

A favorable summary 😎 ..I'd note that Juju, Precision, and Velocity were created to market as a 3-pack when I split from Innova production. I may have missed calling Velocity a 'Fairway Driver' at the time. But (correct me if I'm wrong).. I think I was the first to market and standardize the four categories of { Putt & Approach | Midrange | Fairway Driver | Distance Driver } in DGWN with Tank, Stinger, Sniper, and Bomb respectively.

I have all of these discs and they are some of my favorites. The one thing I never see anyone talk about is the diagram on the JuJu that is the +3 to -3, I always thought that if the line your thumb makes matches with any of the lines in that diagram that is going to affect the fade of the disc, like going from stable (+3) to under stable (-3). If the JuJu was still in production, I would own too many. By far my favorite upshot and putter disc ever.

I think more ppl have heard of these than you thought. I used to bag a driver way back when. It got to be kind of a utility disc and then eventually got pushed out of the bag.

I found one at my local course about 10 years ago and it was the driver. Idk if it was because it was beat in or super soft but it was under stable but I kept it in my bag for a water disc. I think that this was a great idea for beginners to learn how to grip and where to grip the disc. Overall it was a gimmick but i'm sure that they sold at the beginning and did okay. I have never seen another one or heard anything since I lost it in a creek so it was cool seeing this video reminding me of some good times in my past.

I might mention that your success with these discs might also be due to the fact that since you're using discs you're not used to the mental opportunity to say "well, they didn't fly well and I didn't do well, but these are weird discs nobody uses so no pressure", that lack of pressure maybe can lead to a more casually and fundamentally solid game that you wouldn't usually play simply because of that phenomenon of having the pressure off of performing with discs that you SHOULD know how to throw. I know you said that the test wasn't very scientific. I do like the finger placement holes as a concept. The berg has something similar with its dome ridge for thumb placement and that is also nice.

@davidlegoff1913 10 ай бұрын

Great job throwing those discs. The mid was like a Roc, the first Driver was like a Teebird, and the last driver was like a Thunderbird. Very cool. You probably made everyone want these discs now. They seem to give great grip for consistency.

@FYUZNStudio 9 ай бұрын

Been so long.. I thought I modeled Velocity off the Beast; McCormack called me out on that. I prolly studied his line for the Genesis nose/rim. Legal/moral rumors aside, IMO he was aggressive pushing PDGA approved rim width to the max, compared to Innova plodding along with strategic incremental increases to squeeze monetization through development. The Roc is 22cm ish.. I made all mine at 21.1 ish for consistency.

Ching was the Innova made company and only the molds that were made by Ching with top and bottom a Ching innovation were totally Ching molds. My Dad used a Juju in the Supreme plastic (e-bay 2004--2005 for $35 USA) , a forerunner to the Champion only this Supreme floppy plastic. The discs for the company Innova and Chinese at the same time the first company were made from late 1990's not sure until 2002 right before we started. He has several other putters, driver a Medium Firm Wizard for driving only, a Rubber Puter too heavy a weight to float, another. The company in 2014 did a few runs of the distance drivers planning to get back into production but stopped, as between 2003 and 2014 the company did not make discs. Some older discs like this one was a Roc with the technology they used on the two later distance drivers.

Tank was 'licensed' Innova mold. Juju was an Aero shaved down flat to reduce width to 21.1 and make it as slow as possible with flat side. Stan McDaniel test threw the first hand made prototype for me, and Dunipace confirmed the concept with production mini prototypes at USDGC longgg ago.

@caseysmith544 10 ай бұрын

The Supreme plastic was like Champion, Innova basically got the info of what plastic company that Ching was getting its plastic from then got it and used a blend to have a stiffer plastic. The one other plastic at the time that was like this was Discraft Elite-Z the early version had a different feel and was more like how modern Latitude 64/other molds feel in the fully clear plastic. Ching also had the Disc Basket they got swiped from the company when they folded in 2002 or 2003 right before I started playing. This is not unlike when Millenium made some of the early Disc Golf Backpacks in 2007--2008 the older models they had one they shipped to China to make a clone of them, at the time the Millenium ones were made in Mexico or in Vietnam. The discs from Ching used to be worth more and only the Innova made discs from the company are worth anything especially the Roc like disc that had the same top the distance drivers Ching made later in a few runs in 2014 planning to get back into the company. At the time the molds made by Innova were made back when Innova East still based out of same city they Do USDGC since 1999/ since 2007 Throw Pink, those two events actually made discs. This was also the same town Ching was from even when the Chinese discs were made at the same time.
