Coolest Plastic Ever From a Small Disc Golf Company?!

[@ScottStokelyDG]

Meridian does a great job. Congrats!!!!!

[@luryas626]

Of course the great Scott Stokely watches the Great AB! Appreciate you a lott Scott, stopped using snus because of you!

[@MeridianJosh]

Thank you for the shoutout Scott!

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

Meridian is doing cool stuff, the Ravine is one of the best stable mids in the game

[@MeridianJosh]

We appreciate your support! 😘

[@TheTchieX]

Just won a beautiful swirly blue Current from a CTP at a club battle, the discs were donated by Armory, it flys amazing, it will probably replace my Frio.

I've meant to say that 3 videos ago: THANK YOU for the imperial / metric labels for the holes you are playing. That helps a lot "some of us" in the bright side understanding your disc selections 🥖🤠😁

[@debauchery715]

the way i read their message was that they compared the current to an fd, not the chasm. the chasm is compared to an overstable wraith (which seems about right by the looks of it, but different wraith runs differ a lot... i have a halo wraith that's more of a c line pd, so super beef).

[@DiscGolfDev]

The editing on the video was so good!! Love the content. Good work!

[@joshdeeken5805]

Peyton owes me some jerky for sending you that current lol

[@MeridianJosh]

You can have as much Jerky as you like. (I actually am not affiliated with BCBJ but I will put a word in with the big guy.) 😉

[@NoLifeLeft13]

If you revisit Wraith vs Grace, it's total worth putting the Drive in there again. Everyone's form is different but when I tried all 3 together the Drives absolutely dominated for me.

[@SethDStanley]

I used to bag Graces but they were just a tad too flippy and unreliable for me if they weren't new. I've been interested in the Drive. How did it perform for you?

[@leptix9283]

came here to say this and the longhorn from mint discs

[@NoLifeLeft13]

​@@SethDStanley My Grace was very close to a new Wraith. Drive was straighter for me. So unless I had a freak overstable Grace, Drive probably isn't what you are looking for.

[@chris-r417]

Wow, their plastics are so nice looking. Gonna have to pick up some to add flare to my bag

[@MeridianJosh]

We appreciate the love!

[@DGBoers]

Meridian will make their name known this year. Some of the best plastic in the game, all designed by their owners

[@isayahjacobs3748]

Absolutely love the look of the tundra! I had a chance to meet Josh last year at NADGT nationals, a super cool guy!

[@MeridianJosh]

Hey man, you're super cool too!

[@AbsoluteZero1313]

I immediately want to try a Strait. And probably a Ravine. And hey, shoutout, a Guava, too

[@MeridianJosh]

I want to try a Guava just for the name! GUAVA!

[@vangorder306]

I will give a like just for the hypnotic black and white disc spin in the intro!!!

[@TheDylanHoe]

Cool looking discs

[@e-belloutdoors5514]

That coyote being out in the daylight is not a good thing. They are nighttime predator. Definitely wouldn’t recommend getting close to it.

[@thefreeshit128]

+1 It looked like it was not healthy.

[@xcfjdyrkdtulkgfilhu]

Being out during the day doesn't necessarily mean it's rabid, but it does mean it has zero fear of humans. It's pretty common for them to be active during the day in areas that have given up on culling coyotes.

[@GPGMan703]

The new Grace runs they are coming out with are more OS. I have a buddy with an older Grand Orbit Grace and it is a bomber. I have a newer version and it is noticeably more OS. I understand that his is beat in, but it definitely feels like the newer Grace's have a bit more beef out the box. (Could also be a color difference like the Chasm shown in the video)

[@JustADuck.]

Thanks for the review I just found out about this company. Also the current appears to fly exactly like one of my favorite discs the innova hawkeye. I don't know if you have one to compare.

[@caseysmith544]

Hawkeye has been for a while hard to get in the limited runs side of the company.

[@MeridianJosh]

Great observation! Oddly enough, my oldest brother who got me into disc golf LOVES the Hawkeye AND the Current!

[@DiscMaimer]

Best looking plastic I've ever seen is their clear with the white specs (maybe fractal clarus?) that they use on their first runs. Armory had a video with it. I only wish I could get it in Canada.

[@andrewhall2270]

Ravine is my favorite too! Got my first ace with it. Great video and awesome channel brother!

[@MFTroop]

Pick up a DD Sergeant to try in the 11 slot. Super underrated. I like them in Lucid and Hybrid. The Paige Shue Pink Glimmer are crazy beefy, Paige Fuzion-X are board flat, stock Fuzion are the straightest otb, Lucid are the most consistent, Hybrid beats in the fastest, and First Run Lucid was the best.

[@austinadams92]

Wraith is the goat of drivers. So good!!

[@sizzledoofpogo5849]

The ravine gives me royal trust profile. I could be wrong

[@toxicfluxy5776]

You should try the company full turn discs

[@rayorth3921]

Czar is my favorite 11 speed. Probably comparable. I got it as a mystery disc and fell in love

[@pELLE-LEGENd]

When you started on the first hole, u had some numbers that described how far it was to the basket, both in feet and meters. So i wonder if u can revil each hole in both feet and meters for us in Europe that has meters as "standard measurements". Much love from sweden

[@nolanbrackin1260]

10:56 “Like scoob, this thing is nice man.”

[@Jtrain039]

Literally just googled to see if you’d reviewed any of their stuff yet.

[@jpmjr7]

With the stepper try to start with your left foot behind the disc and step through with the right that helped me with mine

[@blazorro2558]

i got the first run of all of their discs.

[@mr_nice_guy515]

Thanks for once again proving how damn good the Wraith is

[@natebell4764]

Im sold. can't wait to try these out when I get some money.

[@glane254]

Everybody needs to try some Meridian!

[@thepaiks5454]

Is hole #4 a par 4 in your video? I thought it was in the 440' range par 3.

[@prattacaster]

Ravine looks $$$$

[@MeridianJosh]

🤑🤑🤑

[@caseysmith544]

Some 11 speed that have that 8--9 speed glide some discs in the upper end of fairway/low end of control distance glide have can get out where a 12 speed can for some players. Take the Archon for example, the disc I have can get out to nearly where the Wahoo can because of the glide.

[@leylahb-w7z]

The ravine kinda reminds me of a Pathfinder. 👽

[@tatortot4380]

Good timing as Meridian just signed Mason Ford

[@TXchainHunter]

Good review, thanks

[@seymourglass26]

Finish Line. Show your teacher a little love.

[@shawnwhite1645]

Third. 😄 Those discs look great. I don't understand why you didn't putt with the Tundra though. Kinda' cheating if you ask me. Although, I know you didn't ask. And, the plastic and colors were sick! Great video.

[@davismorehead2494]

279 I’ll throw a putter. Meanwhile I’m throwing an eleven speed

IM SOOO SAD ABT OWLS THE BEST COURCE IN THE METRO AREA. Side note you can still play owls but its a decent bit softer bc they have removed a fair bit of threes but the 18 is playable.

The wraith is better than a grace? And grass is green?!? ;)

[@SafetyEd625]

Bodanza, How can I send you a mystery disc?

nearly died twice on hole 5s tee pad

[@luryas626]

What's up with your swooping??? Great video though, they look pretty dope!!!

[@crunchy_dg1191]

It's crazy to me that Discraft makes these and has an NDA so that people can't talk about it. (This is a rumor I claimed months ago, but just found out about the NDA) Edit: See replies, I'm probably wrong on their manufacturer

[@ryanmussell739]

Discraft makes the disc ??

[@crunchy_dg1191]

@@ryanmussell739 I'd be shocked if they didn't. There aren't many manufacturers in Disc golf, so having plastic THAT similar (all of them are incredibly close to a version I've seen from discraft) would come as a huge surprise.

[@discgolfchronicles]

Are you sure it's discraft? If you look up Qingdao hippo Sport there plastics and molds look super similar.

[@crunchy_dg1191]

@@discgolfchronicles Totally could be and if I were a betting man I'd lean that way. And that also ties up the wonder of where Doomsday's 'Iris' comes from (it feels a lot different than their other products). Thanks for pointing me in that directions. I've heard some REALLY weird hear-say recently and you know what they say... if you want to find an answer on the internet don't ask; say the wrong one. 😅

[@crunchy_dg1191]

TL;DR I've heard some whispers about Discraft making someone else's discs and it's been VERY on the down-low (not DGA). Like, NDA levels of and I'm trying to figure it out. (I'm bored, it's the off season, I like discraft and want to throw more stuff they make)

[@Davy_Great]

Bed time Bodanza. Sweeetttt

[@Rayvennvz]

I think at least 3 of those discs (Current, Ravine, Tundra) are made by Qingdao Hippo Sport Products Co. (Shadow Slicer, Dawn Chaser, Mooring). Had a chance to play with the Hippo discs a few months back, and the plastics looked identical. The putters are some of the coolest looking discs in the air. I still have 3 Dawn Chasers and 2 Shadow Slicers. One of the SS is glow plastic that I would say is very close to Eclipse plastic.

[@Jtrain039]

Thanks for digging this up! I’ve been trying to figure out who manufactures them and they do look identical.

[@DGBoers]

All the molds are designed by Meridian themselves. Never heard of a Qingdao but it’s unrelated

[@soundertillidie]

Go pet the puppy!

[@spoons52908]

You would still be able to step out if they change the rule just do it from behind your lie 😉

[@russb8291]

Please don't get rabies, Ant-knee.

[@josharam9004]

I’m early early

[@discgolfchronicles]

Are these just a rebranding of Qingdao hippo discs from china, or maybe they are manufacturing for Meridian? The plastics and mold look very similar.

[@DGBoers]

Molds are all hand picked and designed by Meridian. Never even heard of Qingdao

[@discgolfchronicles]

​@DGBoers, yeah, i can't say for sure. All i am saying is i came across hippo sports like 6 months looking at disc golf junk on temu or something similar, and remember seeing that jawbreaker-ish plastic. If you look on the PDGA approved discs, the putter bodanza is throwing has a super similar injection pattern as the hippo sport putter that was approved. Just a coincidence that they are so similar?

[@DGBoers]

@@discgolfchroniclesI think it’s just a coincidence that it’s a similar looking mold. P2ish disc are popular. They’ll be releasing a different putter sooner rather than later

[@markd1199]

They using Disccraft plastic?
