I just got 2 Orange ones 172's they are sweet, can't wait to go out and throw them, too bad I can't play till the end of MARCH!!! I'm going nuts!!

Hey all you ION lovers out there just got one from the Maple Valley Plastics. Its really cold in Michigan right now but we are hoping to get out soon to test this baby out. Love the different plastics, really like the softer plastic on the edge, could be a knew thing for disc golf, we shall see. We will be testing this one out in a ton of different ways. So check the review out in the next week.

so what I'd like t know is when we'll see a driver overmold with a "base" plastic core for better glide/flight and a "premium" over mold for the wing for durability

assuming this would be possible

I went with "base" and "premium" cause I can't remember which was Proton plastic and which was Electron

I have been putting with the 166 First Run Ion and it is a very nice putter...easy to throw, smooth flight, doesn't drop too fast
would be a great disc for me in the 172 range

Hmmm, I'd be interested to see that as well...

Sweet! I am glad you like it so far, we are most definitely looking forward to more reviews. Keep up the good work!

That does sound like an interesting idea. New ideas are always into consideration especially down the road. Hard to say anything yet, but if things go the right way who knows!

Glad to hear you like it Our second runs were all mostly in the 170-175g range so you can contact BCR or start to look at our retailers for some of your preferred weights coming soon to their inventory!

Partner and I played catch with it flew like a charm, dead straight. Next few days are supposed to be nice deff. be out playing for a few hours.

Do you guys have an idea when your stiffer runs will be in regular production?

[BCR-9er]

Do you guys have an idea when your stiffer runs will be in regular production?

We do not know for sure how soon our next run will be. The next run we do will be a firmer run. It will probably be a few weeks before we do so. We will be sure to keep you updated when we start to run them.

not a problem, I can wait

The new run of Ions weigh 170-175g and come in five colors: blue, green, red, yellow, and peach. They may be purchased from a number of places including Marshall Street, Sun King, Gotta Go Gotta Throw, Disc Golf World, and more.

For those of you who have an ION, how do you like it so far?

[Frank Delicious]

I'm loving my heavier orange and black Ion. It is less touchy than my 166 1st runs which I still use and holds pretty much any line to the ground. It compliments the VP very well to me.

How do the heavies compare to a Summit?

[Frank Delicious]

I haven't thrown a summit in a while but the ion preforms more consistently at a wider range of speeds. The heavy one I have still requires good form to get it out past 240'.
