Title: Allowing ribbons on your discs at J-Town Ice Bowl
Post by: bangham on February 01, 2011, 04:46:39 PM
I contacted the PDGA, and they are allowing the players to use ribbons on their discs to make it easier to find them in the snow.  This is just for the J-Town Ice Bowl.

Good, I was just going to ask if this would be allowed. With the way these drifts are looking already we are going to need them.

Colored string works best.
Title: Leo B. Old School, Secure Ribbons

 I was talking to Leo today, we were both stuck in traffic so there wasn't much to do except talk. I asked what would be the best way to secure ribbons for the Ice Bowl.
First your disc need to be room temperature. VERY IMPORTANT!
Cut Christmas ribbon about 1/4" 21/2 - 3' long.
Leo suggested cheap duct tape. He said it holds better.
Secure the duct tape to the ribbon & press to the disc as close to center as possible.
Help seal the adhesive to the disc with a hair dryer.
If there is adhesive left on the disc it can easily be remover with mineral spirits.
Thanks Leo, it's great to have friends
