- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 10 ก.พ. 2025
- You got to love the process. I feel like I'm slowly edging closer ad closer to a proper bag with discs I like and trust. I'm honestly discovering something new every single day. I have a few more weeks before the DGPT starts up again and I'll try to keep my head down a bit and focus and proper practice to be as prepared as possible for the big stage!

![10 Best NEW DISCS Released in 2024 [imho]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/VvMuN2O2p8I/mqdefault.jpg)
I love how excited Simon got when he realized he had a chance at a free Big Mac
Same - the look on his face 😂😂😂
Just about nailed it too ...
He's either very food-motivated or very American now.
Simon drinking behind camera: confirmed.
"Didn't want it enough" lol
We all love Simon, that's no doubt. But it's so fun to see Paul getting more comfortable with being in the vlog for every video he's in. Kid's got a bright future.
Talked with him a little before a tournament last year, super nice kid, definitely excited to see what he does this season!
Solid camera work and commentary
Right? He seems like a great kid.
I would love to see a practice round where you and James have a discussion regarding the discs you've tried and are bagging.
That would be an awesome video!
Great idea!
I think James is down in Texas this off season. Good weather to get practice in, most of the time.
Get Sarah Hokom involved as well so they can chat Streamline!
I didn’t know that that is exactly what I want to see until I read this comment.
Waiting for new Simon episode to drop like it was an HBO series
Seriously.
I thought earlier today about whether he was slinging panics yet and checked the channel....and here we are
Same.
Same
Simon needs his own series🤣
I hope we see more of Paul on the vlog. Kid's got a great attitude and a game to match. Plus him n Simon seem to mesh well. Really fun to watch
The sheer sound of the discs coming off simons hand is so cool
Why do I feel so invested in Simon’s bag build?
Same
Because we’re all mesmerized by the shiny new discs being made nowadays
I feel invested, but just pure interest, not to help me with my choices. What he is able to do with a disc is so far past what I can do.
I want him to find the discs that work for him. Remember that he’s been playing with Dave Dunnipace (Innova/Discmania) designed discs for every year but some of the last.
and imagine how expensive a full bag of mvp is
like $400 plus tax
and a $200 bag
plus simon is very handsome and he makes throwing look good! like a dancer
Absolutely love hearing the sound coming off the discs just after they leave your hand.
I had to back it up and turn the volume up to hear what you were talking about. Oh wow!
FFFFWWWWUUUUUUHHHHHHH
I think the sound is mostly coming from his 'shoes' here. If you want to hear a pure disc ripping sound go check Simon's video at Faylor Lake or the CrushBoy Chronicles Mic'd up practice at Jonesboro.
Sounded like a jet plane taking off! ✈
Simon generally being excited with the possiboility of winning a Big Mac on that putt. Love it.
The atom is a great overlooked throwing putter. Super straight and the pilots are awesome too. And I have been throwing the defy for years super cool disc
Watching Simon's videos is like therapy. So enjoyable! Thank you for the content!
Watching you throw the volt is amazing because I use mine for fairway stable-overstable disc but you turn it over so easy.
I feel this
I was thinking the same thing ... my volt never turned like that.
@@jaimeperry7326 Yeah I also can't barely get any snap out of my disc's, Simon has a lot of spin for the speed he releases the disc.
Paul is looking great from these videos! Excited to see him in the local tourneys!
Paul’s consistency to laser things dead straight is astonishing. He also has the power of the pros. Simon is showing us the Pro tour future.
Congrats you are awarded 🎁🤍lucky fan .,
Simon side arming the third putt and saying of course is so classic for disc golf
(5:40) "And then we have silver and colorful" trying everything he can to make MVP discs cool. I'm a fan!
I've seen all of your videos, since going MVP. Your learning these discs at a crazy rate. Sometimes it' s going to feel like a grind, but when you start winning. DAMN it's going to feel good.
I only saw you throw your Envy a couple of times and they both looked like pretty good shots. The last time you threw it, you parked it. I'm an Envy/Proxy guy. I throw a Prism Plasma Envy (Plasma flight plate with Prism rim) for a lot of upshots, and I putt with the Proxy for almost every unobstructed putt from C2 and in. Sometimes I use the Envy if there's a headwind. My biggest challenge with the Envy is getting it to land flat and stick, so I've gone to jump putting with the proxy for anything 100' and in, if I'm worried about a roll away.
I'd love to see you throw the Mayhem. It's my most trusted driver. I'm topping out around 350 and every now and then, touching 400', but I bet you'd crush one over 600'. Like so many other gyronauts, I can't really describe how ecstatic it feels to have your favorite player throw the same discs you throw, so I'll just say a very heartfelt and sincere THANK YOU!
It's so crazy how the discs sound when you guys throw them. It's really satisfying.
A well deserved break Simon! Can't wait to see what to see you shred this season!
The jerk in me wants him to keep throwing on camera. The Human in me completely understand. Good thing it isn't up to me to decide.
Glad to see the Tesla in the bag! The Tesla and the Insanity have been staples in my bag ever since I tried out some gyro discs.
Still crazy to me how much you can turn over your Volt.
Edit:The Proxy and Envy probably feel similar to you because it’s the same flight plate just a different over mold to change the stability.
Tesla was the first MVP disc I ever threw. And, I swear by it. It's by far my favorite disc!!
Im so hoping he finds the insanity…so we can get a simon custom one! First disc i ever threw and now have way too many in my collection
Proxy definitely feels a smidge deeper to me, just enough to notice.
Proxy>Envy. I've been trying to love a tesla for a long time. In the end, the volt and insanity(plasma or eclipse), took its spot. Thanks for the vid, its fun to see someone throw discs that I bag, only throw them properly. My options are typically limited by bag size and inventory... 20+yrs of 'playing' here. Maybe in another 60yrs, I'll be half decent. Tbf, my only disc for the first few yrs in the 90's, was a whippet. Nowadays, the choices are amazing and endless...
I love that Simon is just crushing 500 ft in his slippers. Life Goals!
Congrats you are awarded 🎁🤍lucky fan .
If you need a Tilt replacement then go with super overstable Energy. It's 13-speed. It's one of my go to utility discs.
Damn Paul Krans is so good, super fun to watch
It is fun watching someone of this caliber relearn a bag
I was always a 14/15 speed basher, but it’s pretty cool to see Simon enjoying one of them!
If anyone hasn’t watched the new Jomez series with Simon, I highly suggest you do so! ❤
Again thank you for showing me how my discs should be thrown. Never been so excited to throw my discs. Been waiting for MVP to get love for awhile. My son is like him. Kid has been playing since June and is an absolute monster.
Sitting here watching this video just waiting for my lizzote hex and now wanting the beyond envy. Those are some sweet looking discs
BTW, if you aren't clicking with the Envy but want an overstable putter, I highly recommend trying out the Streamline Stablilizer, it's my favourite overstable throwing putter both for BH and FH.
YESS YES YES! 14.5 Speed discs, Trace, Tesla are the discs I wanted him to try SO BAD.
I love the Trace. Their 14.5 speed discs are really interesting and huge bombers. He should try all of them to find some he likes and can rely on.
And the Tesla is a great stable/over stable fairway driver.
Keep trying them discs. Oh BTW Simon, the Trace is a great forehand disc to. Ask the queen forehander herself, Sarah Hokom.
The proton Tesla at 3:47 was one of my first Discs ever. I have a first machine mold collection that I may never throw again and a full new 17 variant collection of new gen Tesla's. I've been an MVP Fanatic since day 1 and seeing them grow has been amazing. Can't wait for this season.
Good video. Paul did an excellent job and was well spoken. I hope you team up with him for videos in the future.
Simon’s boyish enthusiasm from Paul’s offer of a Big Mac for sinking the putt at 19:29 is proof that Simon is still the same guy we know and love even after signing this huge deal. ✌️❤
Congrats you are awarded 🎁 Lucky fan ..
Keep Paul on your videos, dude is crazy fun to watch and listen to
Defy is one of the most underrated discs out there. Hope Simon can give it the good reputation it deserves.
I have that same exact tesla and I got my first skip ace with it. Absolutely love that disc.
Thanks for all the videos Simon. Totally understand you need a break and I think it's honestly the best decision. You need time off camera to get that practice and dial it in for the quickly approaching season. No doubt you'll be good to go when the time comes. Glad you're enjoying the Tesla and I think you're right by saying it's a faster Servo. Those 2 discs could do you wonders. Glad you're liking a lot of your other discs as well like the Defy and of course the Hex. Hopefully the Beam or some Simon custom distance driver comes out soon for you that you can love and rely on. Thanks for being you and looking forward to the next update in a week or two.
Simon I love watching your videos. Your so down to earth
I'm watching for my 2nd time because of how stoked I am seeing you bag a tesla and a trace. My first 2 aces ever were with those 2 discs, 4 days apart, on 12 29 22 and 1 1 2023. Cosmic neutron trace first off a big ice skip, and fission tesla se for the 2nd straight to chains. I have 2 teslas and 1 trace bagged, and both are absolute staples for me. Seeing you rip both is definitely a fulfilling thing to see, as I have watched you in self-improvement efforts. Thanks for your content, sir.
Congrats you are awarded 🎁🤍lucky fan
Simon, you make my day sooo much better every time you post.
Tesla is one of my favorite discs, was shocked that you didn’t like it at first
I like it when you have Paul on there. He’s pretty chill, and a good golfer.
Loved seeing you throw the same shot with all your discs on second hole!
Defy was the first real disc I used! It flies similar to my Star Wraiths. I had no business throwing an 11 speed as a newbie but it didn’t stop me from enjoying the 70’ spike hyzers I was throwing off the fairway. I recently retired it and brought it to DGLO for autographs.
I'll keep an eye out for Paul, very skilled and likable.
The Trace is a hyzer flip machine, glad to see him throwing it!
Love seeing the Trace get some love... It's such an underrated disc.
The sound his discs make when he throws them is awesome! I wish I had that arm speed!
I am so looking forward to watching you on tour this year! I really loved beyond disc golf episode one!!!
Enjoy the break! Dial em in! Us MVP gyro heads can patiently wait.
I enjoyed the Florida trip Iowa is really cold & lots of snow right now . Have a good time & relax while you learn your new bag . I think you're right about the pressure of content & editing ect. Got to take a bit& just let the flow happen. You got this .
The proton tesla is the only MVP disc I throw but I absolutely love it
The tesla was the disc that truly got me into disc golf in 2019. As someone who only threw forehand at the time, it was incredible the lines you could throw with it. Now as someone who has become mostly backhand dominant, the same few teslas I had back then still find their way back in my bag almost constantly.
Thanks for these first few videos post announcement. We'll be here when you're done with your short break. Get prepped. Take whatever time you need. Go, Simon!
I think Simon would love the streamline pilot. It flies a lot like a p2
Congrats you are awarded 🎁🤍lucky fan
it's just beginning, Simon. You are such an awesome ambassador for the sport. Stay humble.
I love these updates, and how many vlogs we have been getting these past several weeks! Love it and keep it up!
You are the reason I'm trying out lots of new mvp disc's in my bag
Hei Simon! If you don't like the Envy, you might love the Streamline Stabilizer. And when you do, please persuade MVP to release it in Proton plastic! Best wishes from Norway, Lutz
I had a CD2 that I liked, but then I lost it and picked up a Tesla to replace it. It was perfect for me. I'm glad you're on board too.
Love seeing the process of trying new discs and the progress you're making with them, but it's really good to hear you're taking more off-camera time to get into that more competitive mindset!
This last season i got a friend into disc golf and he wanted to do field work with me, even that put a little pressure on me and really made those session more fun than useful for me.
Very excited to see you play this tour, no matter how it turns out!
(I didn't know I needed a pink foil Lizottl so badly!)
Congrats you are awarded 🎁🤍lucky fan ....
reaction of the big mac vs the flight was hilarious! Cant wait for this 2023 season to start!!!!
As someone who is new to disc golf (within the last year)…don’t know much about many of the disc golf pros but Simon just seems like the most genuine and real dude. Never would guess my man got a life changing payday recently…
It's cool to see him realize he can afford to run away from the cold weather and just fly where ever he wants. F-you money is a thing.
Yeah, look how excited he was for a free Big Mac!
This is what you pay for. MVPs brand is going to be like Discrafts after Paul joined. Simon is bringing life, personality and credibility to the discs.
I too have forgotten shoes and played a round in my slippers. The torrential downpour for 10 minutes mid round ensured the mud will never come out of the slipper fabric. My biggest surprise was no one noticed I was playing in slippers.
Throws 80 discs and misses his putt. “Nice birdie”
I love this man.
Congrats you are awarded 🎁🤍lucky fan !!!.
😂😂😂
wishing you the best in 2023 Simon!
So excited to watch you next season Simon! You’re so genuine and talented, have a good break with the new bag and family! You got lots of golf left to play!
I love how simon made sure that p2 didnt go in after he caught it off the basket
Congrats you are awarded 🎁🤍lucky fan .,
Simon has slowly became my favorite MPO player. Love these videos.
I just added a soft neutron envy and a trace to my bag. Absolutely love the envy as my circle 2 and beyond putter. Gonna have to return my trace though. It might just be mine, but it doesn't flip up and fly 500ft 😂.
This is the most fun I’ve had on TH-cam in quite a while. Having said that, do what you gotta do, Si-Guy. We love you
simon you're the goat man wish you nothing but the best buddy
Wow, the sound that is made when Simon was throwing those drives on #2. If only I could get that much power!
Congrats you are awarded 🎁 Lucky fan
Simon thanks for taking the time on us… we are hyped for you. Good to see you communicating and managing our expectations of content.
Wait on that 500 ft downhill hole at 15:02, I remember Simon throwing a mindbender and a sky god at it, almost acing that in his vlogs from this summer, in this one he throws the Tesla which looks like a stable fairway to me but idk about mvp disc flight numbers. It's just interesting to see him park it with discmania mids(and a putter)
and now outside circle 2 with the Tesla.
I was impressed hearing the distance stated of this hole and I had to comment about this.
Love watching all your content Simon. You are a true inspiration and I hope to meet you someday! I’m building a course on my home property in Maine and of course you are always welcome
It's my opinion the Envy is a great overstable throwing putter, much more torque resistant and overstable in the eclipse plastic than I think what Simon is expecting. The throw early in the video fought out quickly. An electron Envy or beat in Eclipse/Neutron Envy is what I think he is expecting in flight. All new discs creates a slightly skewed outlook on how things are flying, especially when pros are used to carrying the same discs for months to years. It'll settle in once he gets more experience and more beat in discs.
Also, The ion and spin are great putting putters
Loved the sound of the disc when Simon throws. Sounds like a tiny fighter jet taking off from a carrier.
Your putting is ALMOST there! You've improved so much since the first video. Great to see you getting the hang of the new discs. Can't wait for the new season. Can't wait for that Lizotte Glitch. Also shout out to Paul, that kid is a beast. Excited for what his future holds in the sport.
Appreciate you sharing your life with the DG community. It's awesome seeing you working your way through all the MVP disc options to build your bag. I understand your getting sick of having a camera in your face but we would still love to see all your growth with this new adventure atleast while you build your bag and continue finding better options for your shots. Maybe dont worry about making awesome content and just ignore the camera and throw discs (someone can edit what disc was thrown and screen shot it in later). "pretend its not there." We just love watching you buddy. Also I strongly recommend switching to a proton pyro and a cosmic neutron crave. Inertia is way better than tesla. Also would love to see you throw a wave, catalyst and relativity. You need to get your hands on some old fission photons and domey proton relativities. They BOMB!!! Finally, it is awesome seeing someone else forehand a putt!!!
Putting looks really smooth! Can’t wait to see how good it looks after the next few weeks of training. Enjoy the break from the craziness of content creation! Hope you continue to enjoy the process!!
Did the elevated basket make you throw nose up? lol
You are the Man Simon, your videos are the best, don't stop.
Paul looks like he's been throwing for a lot more than three years. That hard work is paying off already.
Very down to earth kid. I like his commentary too
Great job! Will love to see what you do. Hire out the things that burn you out and that you don't enjoy. Take time for yourself. You have everything to do that now.
Good camera work by both of you. I agree with the good decision to ‘regular practice’ for a bit. Getting there but still lots to learn. Appreciate the look ins you give us.
Coming on well. Going to be an interesting time. Photon and Volt are my goto MVP drivers. I can't imagine my bag without-- they're my only purple and magenta discs.
But bag is those two, a Discraft XL in FLX (discontinued, so last one), and mess of Buzzes (in FLX and Z) and Challengers (only in Z).
It's awesome seeing the Proxy get some love on your channel. It's my favorite putter in the MVP lineup. I putt with it in Medium Electron and bag a Neutron one as a thrower/approach disc.
Great video. Good luck with the "serious practice".
Pulling for you Paul to get that tour card! Bright future ahead of you young man!
Try to get your hands on a proton Defy! Hard to find but fly amazing.
Listening to Paul do commentary on your throws is just about the coolest thing ever. The kid needs to be commentating some pro rounds this season!
Paul's commentary is a nice addition
Simon do yourself a favor with the envys. Go into a field and throw them full power with each plastic. I mean rip on them. That’s where they shine. Until you beat in a neutron soft/hard one you really don’t throw them with touch too often. Now once they beat in they are amazing touch shot and turnover discs.
Remember to try out the pilot from streamline. I love that disc, perfect throwing putter!!
Love the trace!!
Hey Simon! It's so fun watching you go through this transition. Thanks for sharing it with us all. As a beginner, it helps to know even the pros are out there grinding and learning every day. It helps keep me motivated! Cheers :)
