RESULTS - 🏆CALVIN HEIMBURG & MISSY GANNON

After the unforgiving Northwood course, the 1st leg of the season ends with a classic stop in Emporia. In no particular order, here are the storylines you should remember or may have missed:

HIGHLIGHT

Going back and forth between FH or BH, Chris Clemons flicked his ESP Force straight into hole 16’s basket. He said, “I didn’t wanna lose my Throw Joe’s Cap Rap, so I figured I throw a soft force in the headwind.”

Clemonade made the hardest 320’ you’ll ever play look easy on Friday.

♾️ Infinite’s Highlight: OTB Open Phase I
We’re just one off-week away from the start of the West Coast Swing.

To kick it off, MVP released OTB Open’s first phase of fundraiser discs. These limited-edition runs typically pair their hottest molds with unique plastics, and this year is no different.

Here are the six releases that have GYROnauts foaming at the mouth:

• Prism Proton Hex (5|5|-1|1) - This run is the most true to the flight numbers of any Hex.

• Eclipse Servo (6.5|5|-1|2) - Considered a Crave OS with its flat profile and more stability.

• Proton Soft Tempo (11|5|-0.5|2) - The “Zone SS” lives up to the hype.

• Proton Soft Glitch (1|7|0|0) - Less turn and burn than other runs.

• Proton Soft Paradox (5|4|-4|0) - A torque-resistant Rollo.

• Color Eclipse Drift (7|5|-2|1) - Flat and more controllable run of Drift.

After pouring one out for wallets everywhere, shop Infinite Discs for any of these limited editions.

QUICK HITS
Random Dubs

1️⃣ Besides Clemons, one other person aced hole 16 over the weekend. It was virtual but impressive nonetheless.

For weeks now, Tech Disc has introduced iconic holes into its web app. Lucky owners could throw DDO’s infamous island from the comfort of their homes.

We could be approaching the day when a proper disc golf simulator actually exists.

2️⃣ DGPT Silver events are back from the dead, but only in Europe. This past weekend, the Belgian Open went off in wet, windy, and muddy conditions.

It was the first of six European Silvers this year. Finland’s Teemu Lampainen took down MPO, while Estonia’s Anneli Tõugjas-Männiste dominated FPO.

The event’s post-produced coverage has been streaming out of MDG Media’s channel. Tune in for a fresh change cause there’s always something special about European disc golf.
