    But how does it stack up against their regular ESP?
    We were wondering the same thing... 😉

Great review and excited to see what other manufacturers jump on board with making sustainable products for us all to enjoy throwing around the world!!! Congrats Jesse and Team Trash Panda!!!! ❤

  • @curtisridenour
    @curtisridenour 2 місяці тому +5

    The Discraft 100% is not as bright/visible. Most seem to be gray or less saturated than the normal ESP. This makes it harder to find. This leads to more lost discs. This leads to more disc being purchased. This leads to more plastic being used. The DUNE comes in very bright Orange. We need more discs in plastic like this. Brighter colors lead to less plastic being used.

    • @Skamanda
      @Skamanda 2 місяці тому +2

      Discraft's regular production has a big problem with that, as well. Can't tell you the number of discs I've seen at the local shop that were "grass green", "forest floor grey", or "autumn leaf brown" from Discraft. I can't imagine why they'd even use those colors, other than in hopes people would lose them...

      I agree. It sounds like it is not post consumer plastic, so although better than throwing out, 100% recycled is misleading I think.

    Even in Swirly ESP, Plastic in some runs has textures like recycled ESP.
    Used to be able to get some Echo Star for a short 6 year run where plastic was 100% recycled before Innova was using in some players tour discs for a recycled mix of virgin and regular plastic becuse Star is so expensive as a tour series disc for some molds. In how you showed drying, I now think Innova had an issue of going at a slightly higher temp then Star so plastic would mix the same as only using same drying time to Star so plastic was somewhere between Star and more durable runs of Pro and had a sort of pastel and lighter tone for most of the plastic.

    Just had to drop by and say that finnish company called Prodiscus has reused all the plastic from the beginning (2009) like discraft is now doing, they just havent made basicly no voice about regrinding all the bad ones in to a new discs.
    For example shadow white plastic is regrinded premium and ultrium plastic :)

    So no idea if anyone at Trash Panda will see this, but my community is switching trash cans to ones that an automatic collection truck can use. Can we turn our old cans into discs? Which type of plastic can you use? Just hate seeing my small town create a mountain of old plastic trash cans in the landfill….

So they make a completely eco-friendly version, and the same people piss and moan that they are trying to capitalize off someone else who did it earlier. Make up your mind what you want.
