SuperColor and InnColor are the custom techniques where they reproduce the artwork from one edge to the other.  Either disc would raise about the same amount of money. 

Zeb says they are mainly doing SuperColor on just those two Innova discs until they solve some technical problems they are having with domed discs.

The only thing surprising about the voting so far is that 1/3rd of you did not vote twice!  I'll see if i can get the artwork done tonight.  Maybe I could bring pre-orders to the Club Team thing?  We'll see who can move that fast.  With Discraft it will depend on the production schedule. 

Update: Discraft's production schedule will make it impossible for me to do Buzzzes before early April.  San Marinos will come out first then.  But feel free to keep voting. 

This is the deal on San Marinos:  Zeb will only sell me 40 unless I have pre-orders that satisfy him that he ought to sell me more than 40.  So, after I post the artwork, if you really want one or two or three, pre-order.  Buzzzes I can get as many as I want, and have to buy 50.

If you can get some disc golf baskets in the picture then it would be okay.

As long as you are going that direction how about Slim Pickins sitting on top of the bomb and riding it like a bronco.  Yeee Haa!

The artist's thought process went something like this, "Bevier Blast.  The 2009 Bevier Blast really should be the biggest Blast ever.  Biggest blast ever.  Hmmm..." 

I'm going to start a new thread in the yard sale area for Star San Marino Rocs and ESP Buzzz pre-orders.  If pre-orders come in fast and furious, maybe I can talk Zeb into giving up more than 40 Star San Marinos.  We'll do this just like last year's Champ Destroyers:  give me a name and I'll set one aside for you.

I think knowing what the design will be first would probably help with the orders

Or, help me know not to go ahead with it.

I'd consider purchasing one if it wasn't an INNColor disc. Just not a fan of the INNColor (or SuperColor discs). Most look really sweet but they just don't work well for me if I wanted to throw it. I like to think that I support events as best as I can and within my financial means so I would consider something if it were disc with a "regular" hotstamp.

Just out of curiosity: do the INNColor and SuperColor discs sell better than other styles?

I've never done InnColor or SuperColor for the same reasons.  I don't like the way they feel in the hand.  And, I''ve never thought I could sell them for those jacked up prices, but both manufacturers insist on that pricing.  I think I'll just stick with those conclusions. 

I've always take my good SuperColor concepts and shrink them down to ColorMax proportions.  I may do the same with this one.
