Check out my painted Roc :D

[zealot]

i bought a new dx roc today but i didnt like the blue foil stamp... i own paintmarkers so you know what happened ... tell me what you think, im gonna spray it with a matte finish spray before i play it (yes, im playing it!)

[zealot]

edit: i scratched off the 'dx' part, didnt care for it too much...

looks cool and all but its against PDGA rules to put any thing on your disc that can change the weight. i.e. paint, stickers, etc.

Sweet job, lock-off...looks badass!!

This is true, but is the paint marker on that disc much different than a multi-color dye job? I mean, how much weight can it (or dye, for that matter...) really add?

I believe this only accounts for things of "measurable thickness" like stickers and such.

yeah i hope this doesnt make my disc illegal anyone for sure about paint? if i cant use it then id have to go buy another roc... darn

[disc_golfing_fool]

If you can feel the paint when you run your finger over the disc, then it is of detectable thickness.

In reality, don't sweat it. You're new to DG right, so they'll be easy on you for stuff like that in AM2.


peace

Yes this is true like marker and die don't add a thickness so its fine. Paint however changes the way the air moves over a disc changing its flight charecteristics.

Lock-off...I'm just curious,

What did you use to remove the stamp...acetone?

It looks like there was a little bit left over to be used as a stencil.

my finger nail. it helped al ittle to get it wet with water for 30 seconds

im kinda bummed out b/c i odnt want to get used to an illegal disc

[jgarcia9102]

they dont care about sharpie, so i dont think anyone would make a big deal about paint markers. it looks sweet, throw it untill someone argues with you about it. even then, im not sure paint markers are illegal. i know actual paint is, but paint markers are more markers than paint in my book...

[zealot]

you can feel it ever so slightly.... i dont know i dont care for the 'old' dx plastic that this disc is.. i nipped a tree and it knicked pretty badly (for what the shot was)

i might just sell this and get another kc pro roc

but meh, i may play it.

anyone want it for cheap?

[sleepy]

anyone want it for cheap?

YES!!

It's mine...everyone else back off!!

Lock-off, check your PM's...

That went quick......I was about to reply, but someone beat me to it. I thought it wasn't possible to spend any more time on this message board, but I've been proven wrong!!

Hello, my name is Sleepy, and I have a problem...

Actually, I spoke too soon about the Roc pictured above. I should have asked lock-off about the details before I declared myself it's new owner. It's a bit too light for my tastes, (168g), so it's still up for grabs.
