      My impression of Casey is that is the ombodyment of a good heart. He and Simon deserve each other. I hope Casey knows the support he gets for his insanely lovely character. The same for Simon, but his vlog is so big that I think he knows from the comments, and hopefully they both take it in.
      Also some realyl solid putting in this vid, Casey.

    I don't even know how to express what I about to try to say.. Watching this video and having been following Simon for 2+ years now, you can't help but see some of his pian for leaving this company. Like when he threw his p1x on the frozen lake. You can tell he definitely wanted to at least keep that disc and add it to his memory collection (I kind of cracked a tear or two for him). Discmania was a huge part of his life. And then, just the way he carries himself, his character, his humility, his kindness, his approach to the game, his approach to life. Simon, I have never had the pleasure to meet you but, I love you man. I know you bring joy to many, you have been very professional and honest with everyone. I thank you for bringing disc golf content to the world, and I feel like you do it with the best intentions and the biggest heart. Just know that I'm sending you BIG HUGS and BEST OF WISHES on your new journey ahead. Also, I hope you crush it this year!!!

    Such sentimental music. Although you didn’t get an ace, you parked darn near everything. And Casey was on fire! Excellent ace by him. He was happy to be at Maple Hill for your final round. Of course, your thoughts were confused. You lived a breathed Discmania for 10 years. And you didn’t leave because of resentment or pain. You left on good terms and there is still part of you that’s going, “And why am I leaving again?” But then you remind yourself that’s okay to evolve and change. Excellent things are in front of you. I wish you all the best.

    Goose bumps. I’ve only been playing a mear 2 1/2 years but it feels like a lifetime of watching Simon vlogs. This is an exciting new season but with a lot of emotion.
    One thing I know in life is that we are never the same people year after year. You have to learn who you are constantly and you’ll be surprised by your life. Change is good. Painful at times. But it’s good.

    Assuming your new sponsor is okay with it, a video or series of your methodology in building your new bag or how you find the disc that replaces your old go to discs would be some great content to see. A lot of smaller channels have done that, but you've been locked in to Discmania for awhile and I think it'd be a pretty unique perspective to see.

    Simon Lizotte seems like he is the most humble, honest, caring, nicest dude walking. Dunno if it’s cause he’s on camera or if he is really just being himself!!!? But either way from the hundreds of videos I’ve watched of his this guy is great. Much respect Simon on your journey and new sponsorship!!

    can't wait for the announcement and see what new molds you throw. Transition is never easy especially when you leave something you love. Change is always inevitable and if taken as a journey you come out stronger in the end!!! Simon you are a great story teller. looking forward to your next chapter!!!

    Nothing makes me happier than seeing a new video uploaded by Simon... There is so much that I want to say, but I can't find the right words to express myself. You have brilliantly captured and shared with the world your growth as a disc golfer and your growth as a person. Your story is incredible and you are amazing! I'd be willing to bet that there will be documentaries, books, and maybe even movies made about you and your journey through life. Thank you for all that you do!

    You're Simon Lizotte, we will follow you anywhere. It isn't the discs you throw, the hat you wear, it's you man. You're a class act, exciting to watch and funny as hell. It's sad to see this partnership end but it looks like Discmania cherishes the time they had with you, and you with them and they'll still be your family. I'm excited brother, can't wait to see what you do!
