Since we began our initial plans, we've expanded our "Disc Lines" from two to four. That's because 4 different manufacturers are now sending their larger prototype runs and we have more discs on the verge of final production than we thought we'd have at this point. A lot of the production setbacks that made things move slowly during the pandemic seem to have been alleviated, for now. Suddenly machines are running again and plastic is becoming available.
Here is a quick look at recent developments...
PREPPER LINE
This was the line that we thought would be finished first. But it has hit some slowdowns. We still hope that the original 5 molds in this line have first runs by the summer of 2022. The Apocalypse required a redesign since a misunderstanding in the initial 3D modelling created a disc that would not pass PDGA approval. But we like the incorrect disc as a novelty, so we moved the "oops" model to the "Flightless Discs" line and we had to rework the Apocalypse. Still, things are moving forward.FLIGHTLESS DISCS LINE
These are the strange, experimental discs made for our brand. When we want to test the boundaries of design and make something odd, we'll do it here. They may or may not pass with the PDGA, but that shouldn't stop experimentation. After all, you never know what you'll have to use in your bag after the doomsday.CONSPIRACY LINE
The name of this line was chosen by some members of Team Doomsday. We loved it. This is another line from a completely new disc source overseas as we work with multiple factories in multiple countries to diversify our lineup. So far, there is only one mid-range disc in this line, but we hope to build a full arsenal of discs in the Conspiracy Line.ANOTHER LINE...YET TO BE NAMED
We also have a couple of new distance drivers to be released in a line that is yet to be named. These are made in the USA and we will have prototypes available to both our team and the interested public, as soon as possible. We are scrambling to get these speed-12 discs tested, named, and in the hands of people who want to prepper early for the coming doomsday.We've got some other ideas cooking as well. We'll try to keep everybody posted here on the Doomsday Blog. This is a place to embrace both disc golf and the coming apocalypse. Enjoy!
