| 08-03-19 - More Ching !!!! |
Ching have released a retooled version of their midrange Oracle, Oracle R2, Mike Holgate has added some stability to its flight. The discs are available in the basic plastic Powerline so far.
Prodigy is a new 21,2cm control-driver based on the Velocity, but has three contours (DRAFT) on the top like the Oracle. It is a pretty slow and a bit under-stable driver. Powerline and Supreme Prodigy are planned to be released during summer.
Holgate is also working on Celerity, a driver based on the Velocity/ Prodigy but with a traditional top, no contours, 21,2cm in diameter with a rim width of 1,9 cm. The disc flies more stable, but with less glide compared with its siblings. If everything runs as planned you will find the Power and Supreme Celerity in the shops during summer.

Release date is not set, probably later this spring.

| 08-03-06 - San Marino Roc |
The San Marino Roc is back!! The San Marino is less over stable than the Rancho mold with less low speed fade, making it a straighter flier, but more over stable than the Ontario mold. For those collectors out there, don't worry, this new mold is clearly distinguishable from the original. The mold has the original top and side on a new retooled bottom. It looks different from the original mold as it does not have the concentric rings at the bottom center and the engraving is different, it says “San Marino”. DX San Marinos will be available through regular shops at regular prices very soon. The Champion and Star will be reserved for USDGC/EDGE fundraising.
