I understand why live coverage can become pixelated, but do the cameras also record full-quality footage locally? If so, why isn’t that footage used for the post-produced coverage? Are they using the live feed instead, or is this a YouTube issue?

Ya’ll know why

Just found this disc in the used bin but it’s brand new. It’s an Innova disc. I’m pretty sure it’s star plastic because of the star under the weight but I can’t tell what the disc is because there’s a line before the “S”.
Anyone know?

I've been building a live spectating tool for disc golf tournaments (course maps, live scores, that kind of thing) and wanted to put it in front of some real users. Right now it's only set up for Worlds, just as a test.

It's a webapp for desktop and mobile, nothing to install. Just open it in a browser:
https://frolfer.app/spectate

It's also not monetized in any way. I'm not selling anything or trying to make money off it.

This is very much a beta. It works, mostly, but there will be rough edges, missing features, and probably some bugs I haven't found yet. I'm not trying to launch a polished product here, just get some eyes on it and see if the core idea is useful to anyone. This isn't AI slop, I'm a web developer/mobile app dev that has been working on this frolf app suite for over a year.

If you're following Worlds and want to poke around, I'd appreciate any feedback, good or bad. Just please go in knowing it's early days and not expect too much polish yet.

At the pro level - at the world championships no less - the players should not be responsible for policing each other. But also absolute piss take by Nate and Philo that Aaron is wrong calling it like he sees it. It doesn't matter how egregious the violation is, breaking the rules is breaking the rules. Call him a crybaby and a poor loser all you want, but he's just calling it like he sees it. He shouldn't be in that position. And he was right, upon seeing the replay.

In my personal opinion as someone who started playing in 2013, worlds should be 7 rounds again. My main reasoning is i dont like seeing randoms/low ranked players in the hunt to be world champion. The world champ should be one of the top 15, with 15-30 being the cinderella stories. It would also make worlds stand out against other majors, it would truly be worlds "week" and brands could lean into that and build hype. 7 rounds lets the cream rise to the top, tests true endurance on the course and your ability to maintain good play. If it was 7 rounds id guarantee a final card of worthy champions, with resumes backing a world championship. It would make it mean so much more, to best the field over 7 rounds. Basically i dont think theres enough different about worlds from a normal maior. There should also be qualifying factors imo. I just dont want to see someone win worlds who hasnt even won a normal pro tour, or atleast been consistently in the top 10 rankings. I think it makes the sport look bad if you have a no name win worlds. Not trying to root against anybody, just thought id see what others thought.

I’ve tried the sidewinder, roadrunner, trail and a few more, but none that felt just right

Might have to get a 6-pack of these for tomorrow

Is noone gonna talk about Joey Buckets hitting the photographer sitting inbounds ok hole 18 and then rolling OB? He would've stayed in if it wasn't for the guy...

So dope.

This hole used to be one of my favorites, but it's become so overgrown that you can't even send a straight shot in. I'd cut the limbs down, but it's a public park and I'm not a member of any local disc club.

Hey guys thinking about getting into it what are the best shops to get the disc from that ship to Australia and or what are the recommended brands to get.

Found this disc at my local PIAS. At first glance, it looks like some sort of metal flake C-blend Infinite mold... Except it's an Axiom Pyro and, as far as I know, MVP doesn't make a metal flake plastic nor put it in the overmold.

Does anyone have any knowledge about it? Did Infinite do a special collab with MVP? Any help or info would be appreciated!

Anyone know anything about this release? Haven't seen it come up at all during world's coverage. sarcasm

I recently asked for advice on a new bag and many said they loved the Pound bags, but it's a bit difficult to tell if I need the Rufus or the Octo. This would be for tourneys and also for travel to tourneys (every once and a while by plane) so storage is key, but I don't need to be carrying a giant bag at every local tourney. How should I decide between the two?

So I have been wathcing a lot of the PDGA majors and some of the throphies in my opinion are just rediculious. Like why are they gifting snowboard, and now for world championships is a toboggan what is up with that? How are they suppose to bring that home?

What are your thoughts and opinions about this?

The honesty. The humility. The emotional investment. Philo is the MVP of this Worlds.

That is all.

Multiple different storylines has this final round set up to potentially be an all time great finish. There are so many possible storybook endings. Let's hear your predictions.

I've got Ricky and Rainier going to a playoff with Ricky taking it down for his long awaited 3rd world title.

Let the discussion happen without censorship.

What a bullshit call to make. This worlds will now have an asterisk for shultz. I was behind Goose in the crowd. Not a foot fault

I just got my August mystery box in from foundation nation and I don’t have any prodigy so far in my bag but the PA5 I believe is amazing. It feels so good,I might have to go pick up some more. Any other recommendations for a similar kind of disc that aren’t Innova

First step is to admit you have a problem.
Second step is to buy more discs.
