How to clean, repair and store your discs (the CORRECT way!) | Disc Golf Basics

  • In this video we go through how you take care of your discs so they will fly as good as possible. This happens in 3 steps in this case. Cleaning, repairing and most importantly (?) how you store your discs. Without proper care they can get warped (we show how you can fix that) or the dome can get sad (We show you how to fix that as well) 😀.
    The steps:
    Clean
    1. Wipe of excess mud
    2. Put the discs in warm water with some dish soap
    3. Scrub with a sponge or cloth (be a little bit careful of the stamp if you scrub furiously)
    4. Dry the discs
    Repair
    1. Fix the rim and small imperfections with sandpaper
    2. Fix bigger chips either by clipping them with a nail clipper or
    3. Melt the plastic with a lighter (be careful and ask your parents first!)
    4. Fix the dome by putting the disc in warm water then put the disc upside down on a flat surface and let it cool down
    5. Fix a warped disc by putting the disc in warm water and then put the disc on a flat surface with some weight on top (that pushes on the rim and not the dome). A stack of disc as weights is a good idea.
    Store
    1. In the bag (or a shelf etc.). Don´t have too many discs at once stored in the bag. That can lead to the disc being deformed.
    2. Stacked on a surface. Keep the stack straight without any disc sticking out on the side. That might lead to the disc being warped.
    Do let us and everyone else know if you have any tips how you take care of your discs that we might have missed.
    (Note that the bag is all right. Shaken. But all right 😂👍)
    We hope you´ll enjoy the video!

      My discs decide for themselves when it is time to fly away forever. Some believe it is to the great blackberry patch, whereas other creeds espouse the partly-complete crossing of the River Styx. And then there are the Frisbeeterians who, when they leave us, achieve a higher level of being, such as a rooftop or very high tree branch.

    You should remove the barcode label from underneath the grey disc. That's 1g at the perimeter causing imbalance, wobble.

  • @mojavegreen2923
    @mojavegreen2923 ปีที่แล้ว

    Being new to the disc dying process, I learned that some turn out great, some turn out really cool by accident, and a few dyes go horribly wrong with the light colors being completely overpowered from the darker dyes. Most of the time I am able to lighten it back up with a cloth, but sometimes it calls for drastic measures and that involves hot dipping in the lightest and brightest color dye I have, which is usually a bright yellow.
    In one particularly stubborn case I put the disc in at 130 degrees farenheight, 5 degrees less than the 135 degree reommended threshhold, and left it in the dye overnight. It wasn't a complete success, but my chances of being able to find it have dramatically improved.
    Here's the thing... the disc is now noticeably more stable and absolutely perfect for slight to moderate headwinds (Woohoo!), so does that mean it is no longer a legal disc? All I did was hot dip the disc like countless others, including some manufacturers have done, all the time? If using hot water the alter the shape of a warped disc is ok, then unknowingly returning a disc to a previously more stable state should be well within the spirit of the rules, as well... right?

    Keep a spray bottle with soapy water by the sink. Cheap spray bottle works, but for just a few dollars more a "pro" spray bottle is a pleasure to use and stays primed, so you get spray on the first pump even after it has not been used for a while. Spritz the dirty discs, clean up with dish sponge, rinse with warm water. Very fast once set up. Soap spray works on glasses, lots of other things too.

    How many discs can you stack before you would think the bottom ones would be damaged? I was always unsure about keeping them stored like that.

      Johannes helped me our here:
      "20-30 discs a pile is a good max reference point in our experience. The bigger the pile the more important it is to separate them based on size. An easy way to separate them on disc diameter is to think that distance drivers, fairway drivers, midranges and putters gets their own pile."

    Simple green and a magic eraser. If you find one in water or that's been outside for awhile, soak it in soapy water for a couple hours, then give it the magic eraser. It's worked well for me so far.

      Whenever my medium putters get too warped, i boil up some water and after a minute or two I put the disc on top upside down for like 15 seconds. I then let it sit on a flat surface until the disc is normal temp. Works really well for medium plastic atleast.

    This was great but I'm still slightly confused on how to store discs...you show that stacking like pancakes is the best, but then all of the fan pictures have them being stored like coins going into a coin slot. Will they warp with the latter method? That's how I store mine now (indoors).
    Thanks for the help!

    • @Latitude64
      @Latitude64  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I think that´s mostly due to there being a lot of discs and maybe then it´s easier to store them like that. But storing them in a stack also works fine (just not a neatly maybe). Have a great day! /Jonathan

      I had Johannes help me with this:
      "Depends. Can you spot an apparent molding imperfection? If not, then the safe answer is no. You could send the question straight to PDGA and hear what they have to say about it.
      Overweight discs should never leave the disc golf factory though. We weight every single disc to make sure of that."

      Johannes helped me with this one:
      "Most probably. Leaving a disc outside and exposed to the elements of nature is never a good thing. A day or two outside shouldn't matter that much. Premium plastic (like Opto and Gold) is very durable. But a couple months will probably be noticeable."
