2011 Custom Hero discs

by TurboToller on Mon Mar 21, 2011 12:39 pm

I'm getting ready to place my order with Hero for the season.I'll be placing an order for regular discs in a few days,but I'm planning on getting some custom logo Hero Xtras in a couple more weeks.
I've been mulling over a few designs which will include a picture of a dog flying over a pool with a disc in it's mouth and mosty likely one of the following slogans
I've got STDs---Shelby Township Dogs
Amphimbious Air Assault Disc Dogs---everyone loves a set of triple A double Ds
MUDDDD---Michigan's Ultimate dock diving disc dogs
I've got ADD----Amphibious disc dogs
If you interested or have suggestions shoot me a PM

I like MUDDDD!!! Are you going to be selling some of these, and if so, for how much?

by Rajah on Wed Mar 23, 2011 11:42 am

My vote is for MUDDDD as well. I like that. We may be interested in getting a couple.

I would be interested in 4. Are these the 235's, I need some durable ones.

We just got some new discs from Pawsitive Vybe. We could use a few Hero Discs.
How much and how do we pick them up?

Hey Chip,

Just how durable are the Hero discs you are ordering? In other words, how long do you think they will last with my hard-mouthed GSDs?

If they will last through at least a day's worth of catches, we might be interested in a few.

Kel-

I think they are similar to the fastbacks? They are not as tough as a jaws, although I think Hero makes a model similar to jaws....They're better than the Hyperflite competition standard. In my opinion, they throw a LOT better than the Hyperflite comp standard. Heroes and fastbacks are my personal preference for throwing. My dogs are pretty hard mouth catching-wise (Ozzy being the worst chomper, which is odd considering he's got a soft mouth with birds!) and they last for a good while with them. I'm ok with punctures on the disc, but once the edge starts getting ragged that's when they go into the trash.

I'd definitely recommend them!

Chip,

When where and how can we take delivery. How much will they be apiece?

Kel,
The Extras are the most durable standard weight discs available. Hard biters can still destroy them but the bite damage dosent leave the huge ,sharp points that it would on a Hero air,fastback or K-10.They typically warp from overuse before they become dangerous.
Roger,
Probably about 4.00 for the xtras after shipping maybee slightly more on the first run due to set up.
It will probably be at least a month until they are done.Anyone who wants to order something please PM me.

Thanks, Sara and Chip, for the info.

All I use for disc competition are the Hyperflite Jawz. I refuse to use anything else for disc since my guys are so rough on their discs. I probably lose a little control/distance at times by using them, but I'm willing to sacrifice that for durability.

HOWEVER, I would be interested in something else for dock jumping (even if it isn't as durable), since the Jawz definitely do not float. You make me laugh ti

So, again, Chip, send me a message when you make your order as I would like some floatable, fairly durable discs to use. Sweet!

Chip,

How are the discs coming, do you have them yet? I would like 4 as mentioned above.

I know this is sort of an old thread, but since we're talking about discs, I thought it would be a good place to ask ...

Do the Hero Xtras float?

I'm looking for a disc that floats and is highly visible (for dogs) in the water.

I bought a yellow SofFlite for Indy, we lost it the first time at the lake. It does float, but when it flipped upside down and took on water, Indy couldn't see the disc even when it was inches from his nose, even when he bumped into it and knew it was there.

Someone needs to make a floating disc that is black and white striped Ultimate Air Elation

Sorry for the slow response on this everyone,Extras do float,but just barely.Anyone who has watched Wyatt sink them while trying to grab them with his pawes then wait 10 seconds for them to resurface knows what I mean.I will be ordering in the next few days--the order was delayed because I blew all of my money Financing the Incredible Crash Experience.
