MY THOUGHTS AFTER 2 WEEKS WITH A NEW BAG!!

You got to love the process. I feel like I'm slowly edging closer ad closer to a proper bag with discs I like and trust. I'm honestly discovering something new every single day. I have a few more weeks before the DGPT starts up again and I'll try to keep my head down a bit and focus and proper practice to be as prepared as possible for the big stage!

[@timternet1653]

I would love to see a practice round where you and James have a discussion regarding the discs you've tried and are bagging.

[@nathanielcrawford5119]

That would be an awesome video!

[@chiebert290]

Great idea!

[@kennygo8300]

I think James is down in Texas this off season. Good weather to get practice in, most of the time.

[@saint-cetacean]

Get Sarah Hokom involved as well so they can chat Streamline!

[@axeslinger44]

I didn’t know that that is exactly what I want to see until I read this comment.

[@08-kris61]

I am so looking forward to watching you on tour this year! I really loved beyond disc golf episode one!!!

[@ChadSolberg]

Simon thanks for taking the time on us… we are hyped for you. Good to see you communicating and managing our expectations of content.

[@mech0p]

love big moves like this. Makes the upcoming tour so much more interesting.

[@kamlesh7977]

Congrats you are awarded 🎁🤍lucky fan ,,

[@GPO_Studios]

Can relate to the beginning of this video. Two weeks ago I also forgot my shoes to the course... and shot a personal best in my slip-ons.

[@philsal88]

Your response when he said he would buy you a Big Mac was classic haha

[@TheTiredWanderer]

Simon! try the atoms for putting! They are the superior disc!

[@colinbailey5505]

My only ace was with a Tesla! Also, looking forward to the day you convince MVP to use multicolored rims on MVP discs

[@kaseywolf3173]

Liked for the catch

[@josephirving7336]

I could listen to those drives on hole 2 out Simons hand all day!!!

[@maurimiller5745]

Idk if you know about the Lift its with streamline. I like it a lot flies fairly straight if you throw it how you want too

[@kamlesh7977]

Congrats you are awarded 🎁🤍lucky fan

[@ClockWork303]

Simon when using the Tesla-Just hammer it flat and it goes!! Me when using the tesla- Just hammer it flat and it goes.... straight into the ground.

[@magicnov20]

I love my tesla. Been throwing it for 5 years.

[@r.scottmacleod4564]

I hope taking a break means spending quality time with the wife and kid because you really should bud? I'm just glad you have interest in still making these videos because I could easily see a time in the near future when you might not any more.

[@kamlesh7977]

Congrats you are awarded 🎁🤍lucky fan ..,,

[@74realworld]

Hey Simon..... Did you ever try the atom for a putter? I have every MVP and Axiom putter, but I keep coming back to the atom.

[@fishbwoi3681]

That custom lizzotle is so fucking cool

[@DoubledsFOD]

Waiting for him to try a teleport!

[@TmoneyProductions]

17:43 this is absolutely insane to throw first try on camera

[@qedyt]

During the first 60 seconds or so Simon makes Defy turn. That has NEVER happened to me. These guys are different -- Simon more than most! I do bag the Defy for headwind shots and hyzers. But to make something turn, I'll go for Vanish.

[@kamlesh7977]

Congrats you are awarded 🎁 Lucky fan .

[@kadensanders7825]

I love how excited Simon got when he realized he had a chance at a free Big Mac

[@5stringaustin]

Same - the look on his face 😂😂😂

[@jaimeperry7326]

Just about nailed it too ...

[@jimmyobvious1651]

He's either very food-motivated or very American now.

[@eoghana315]

Simon drinking behind camera: confirmed.

[@DK-vp2zr]

"Didn't want it enough" lol

[@Swimmydude11]

Paul Krans has some good camera work and commentary. Really enjoyed watching him throw alongside you.

[@SkeletorJenkins]

I was thinking that myself. He does a good job.

[@jerseylife8701]

Felt the same way. Great filmer and great commentary

[@subspaceanomaly]

he could do with a view of the basket before the throw rather than following the disc to see the basket for the first time as you don't get to plan your own imaginary throw as you subconsciously do normally

[@mckaymnm]

Excited to see him excel

[@gerrett108]

Seems Simon was throwing along side Paul

[@erikhermansson1287]

We all love Simon, that's no doubt. But it's so fun to see Paul getting more comfortable with being in the vlog for every video he's in. Kid's got a bright future.

[@dougmaccaferri1846]

Talked with him a little before a tournament last year, super nice kid, definitely excited to see what he does this season!

[@reidkemp]

Solid camera work and commentary

[@benaussem3859]

Right? He seems like a great kid.

[@landycalrissian]

Waiting for new Simon episode to drop like it was an HBO series

[@matthewbowser4602]

Seriously. I thought earlier today about whether he was slinging panics yet and checked the channel....and here we are

[@budtron183]

Same.

[@ChadSolberg]

Same

[@TheWindrider47]

Simon needs his own series🤣

[@mikeschroeder7042]

I hope we see more of Paul on the vlog. Kid's got a great attitude and a game to match. Plus him n Simon seem to mesh well. Really fun to watch

[@sueinraleigh3091]

Why do I feel so invested in Simon’s bag build?

[@ChadSolberg]

Same

[@reidkemp]

Because we’re all mesmerized by the shiny new discs being made nowadays

[@billbaldridge6903]

I feel invested, but just pure interest, not to help me with my choices. What he is able to do with a disc is so far past what I can do.

[@joeblow2426]

I want him to find the discs that work for him. Remember that he’s been playing with Dave Dunnipace (Innova/Discmania) designed discs for every year but some of the last.

[@feelinghealingfrequences7179]

and imagine how expensive a full bag of mvp is like $400 plus tax and a $200 bag plus simon is very handsome and he makes throwing look good! like a dancer

[@robjaworski4476]

Absolutely love hearing the sound coming off the discs just after they leave your hand.

[@bradmcclelland9811]

I had to back it up and turn the volume up to hear what you were talking about. Oh wow!

[@tylersavoy3266]

FFFFWWWWUUUUUUHHHHHHH

[@mahazroko6753]

I think the sound is mostly coming from his 'shoes' here. If you want to hear a pure disc ripping sound go check Simon's video at Faylor Lake or the CrushBoy Chronicles Mic'd up practice at Jonesboro.

[@scottbasal9749]

Sounded like a jet plane taking off! ✈

[@Jack-do2uw]

The sheer sound of the discs coming off simons hand is so cool

[@ddownham]

Simon generally being excited with the possiboility of winning a Big Mac on that putt. Love it.

[@hiddenleaf414]

Glad to see the Tesla in the bag! The Tesla and the Insanity have been staples in my bag ever since I tried out some gyro discs. Still crazy to me how much you can turn over your Volt. Edit:The Proxy and Envy probably feel similar to you because it’s the same flight plate just a different over mold to change the stability.

[@beautifulvampires777]

Tesla was the first MVP disc I ever threw. And, I swear by it. It's by far my favorite disc!!

[@brettduca9048]

Im so hoping he finds the insanity…so we can get a simon custom one! First disc i ever threw and now have way too many in my collection

[@cwm180]

Proxy definitely feels a smidge deeper to me, just enough to notice.

[@ItzThorrr]

If anyone hasn’t watched the new Jomez series with Simon, I highly suggest you do so! ❤

[@avassolo3]

Casually throws a volt 425 😅

[@bryanwolfbird]

In slippers

[@benistoneman9737]

The atom is a great overlooked throwing putter. Super straight and the pilots are awesome too. And I have been throwing the defy for years super cool disc

[@aaronhopkins489]

A well deserved break Simon! Can't wait to see what to see you shred this season!

[@jcjcjones33]

The jerk in me wants him to keep throwing on camera. The Human in me completely understand. Good thing it isn't up to me to decide.

[@Christian-hz2ms]

Paul is looking great from these videos! Excited to see him in the local tourneys!

[@ChaosKLC]

Watching Simon's videos is like therapy. So enjoyable! Thank you for the content!

[@keyelectric91]

Watching you throw the volt is amazing because I use mine for fairway stable-overstable disc but you turn it over so easy.

[@samhowl1152]

I feel this

[@jaimeperry7326]

I was thinking the same thing ... my volt never turned like that.

[@keyelectric91]

@@jaimeperry7326 Yeah I also can't barely get any snap out of my disc's, Simon has a lot of spin for the speed he releases the disc.

[@bogeys6235]

Throws 80 discs and misses his putt. “Nice birdie” I love this man.

[@kamlesh7977]

Congrats you are awarded 🎁🤍lucky fan !!!.

[@SeanMcDonnell33]

😂😂😂

[@joebrannon8843]

The People’s Champion ❤

[@cmertz5400]

Sitting here watching this video just waiting for my lizzote hex and now wanting the beyond envy. Those are some sweet looking discs

[@juliob1628]

Paul’s consistency to laser things dead straight is astonishing. He also has the power of the pros. Simon is showing us the Pro tour future.

[@kamlesh7977]

Congrats you are awarded 🎁🤍lucky fan .,

[@perrygalloway1085]

I've seen all of your videos, since going MVP. Your learning these discs at a crazy rate. Sometimes it' s going to feel like a grind, but when you start winning. DAMN it's going to feel good.

[@realCopp]

Been throwing MVP since about 2012ish. I didn't know they sold ones that sound like a jet taking off. ;)

[@reidkemp]

I was always a 14/15 speed basher, but it’s pretty cool to see Simon enjoying one of them!

[@bradb5094]

Good video. Paul did an excellent job and was well spoken. I hope you team up with him for videos in the future.

[@espene4468]

amazing content you have given and we are just waiting in excitement for the season to start also :) but damn that kid crushes and seems consistent! he is gonna be big in 2024!

[@stevekrusemark423]

Simon I love watching your videos. Your so down to earth

[@Nortonj8]

if you havent yet, you should try some of the drivers in the fission plastic. its my favorite from MVP. Keep it up!

[@johndavidson1944]

The wave

[@dooglasii]

Nice as the wave is, I feel it's too understable for Simon to use as a go to distance driver. Though I'm curious what he can do with one for trickshots/roller/understable utility

[@BigBig5]

If you need a Tilt replacement then go with super overstable Energy. It's 13-speed. It's one of my go to utility discs.

[@stagecoachrobbery]

Simon throws 6 discs at the basket, takes 2 putts, "Nice Birdie".lol

[@jasonpiquette8697]

It’s quite absurd that Paul Krans has only been playing for 3 years 😳

[@TrueLink1]

Only watched 15 seconds, and I love how the Glitch had the softest *tink* on the basket cause it's so slow.

[@tydumeproductions]

Looking rough still. I’m sure he’ll get familiarized by the time Las Vegas rolls around

[@juliansayen4072]

go back and listen to simon tee off on hole 2...sounds like he is launching a missle this man's arm speed is actually so insane

[@XTaronyuX]

That hoodie is sick!!!! You doing a simon series hoodie similar?!?!?!?!

[@sergiopatsy7305]

simon you're the goat man wish you nothing but the best buddy

[@deftonesplayer420]

I think the extra .5 speeds are like turning your guitar amp up to 11!

[@44golfreak]

Tesla is one of my favorite discs, was shocked that you didn’t like it at first

[@axelanderson9096]

Haha he catches the disc off the basket shows it for a second and remembers he’s not on discmania anymore

[@billherrera6386]

Again thank you for showing me how my discs should be thrown. Never been so excited to throw my discs. Been waiting for MVP to get love for awhile. My son is like him. Kid has been playing since June and is an absolute monster.

[@dolantremp]

The proton tesla is the only MVP disc I throw but I absolutely love it

[@tydumeproductions]

Putting looks great! Can’t wait to grab a lizottle😮

[@joshuaspicer7676]

It's so crazy how the discs sound when you guys throw them. It's really satisfying.

[@jacobcolley9919]

Damn Paul Krans is so good, super fun to watch

[@shanebentley5630]

Love seeing the process of trying new discs and the progress you're making with them, but it's really good to hear you're taking more off-camera time to get into that more competitive mindset! This last season i got a friend into disc golf and he wanted to do field work with me, even that put a little pressure on me and really made those session more fun than useful for me. Very excited to see you play this tour, no matter how it turns out! (I didn't know I needed a pink foil Lizottl so badly!)

[@kamlesh7977]

Congrats you are awarded 🎁🤍lucky fan ....

[@jonathanfryer4277]

I love that Simon is just crushing 500 ft in his slippers. Life Goals!

[@kamlesh7977]

Congrats you are awarded 🎁🤍lucky fan .

[@calebschmucker3034]

Putting looks really smooth! Can’t wait to see how good it looks after the next few weeks of training. Enjoy the break from the craziness of content creation! Hope you continue to enjoy the process!!

[@cyrowind6877]

Paul's commentary is a nice addition

[@dalereinhold640]

Pulling for you Paul to get that tour card! Bright future ahead of you young man!

[@bradley123726]

You are the reason I'm trying out lots of new mvp disc's in my bag

[@ResonantShift]

Thanks for these first few videos post announcement. We'll be here when you're done with your short break. Get prepped. Take whatever time you need. Go, Simon!

[@crd9191]

(5:40) "And then we have silver and colorful" trying everything he can to make MVP discs cool. I'm a fan!

[@AceManMark]

wishing you the best in 2023 Simon!

[@Discsforbaskets]

Simon, you make my day sooo much better every time you post.

[@henrihell]

Tesla was always too overstable for the slot I was trying to fill with it, and had the same issue of inconsistency with the wrath. Am currently bagging a Neutron Terra only in that speed slot, and plan on cycling Electron Terra's for the less stable 8-9 speed slots. Gonna get my first batch of those on Friday!

[@kamlesh7977]

Congrats you are awarded 🎁🤍lucky fan .,

[@tydumeproductions]

Simon is getting the most views in the DG community rn

[@tylerrwakefield]

Love watching all your content Simon. You are a true inspiration and I hope to meet you someday! I’m building a course on my home property in Maine and of course you are always welcome

[@makon_cline]

Loved seeing you throw the same shot with all your discs on second hole!

[@ChaosKLC]

The Trace is a hyzer flip machine, glad to see him throwing it!

[@jacoblohr9532]

My first mvp driver was a tesla. give the plasma tesla a try! decently stable but flies straight with power. slightly less stable plastic than the proton and better feel in my opinion

[@kamlesh7977]

Congrats you are awarded 🎁 Lucky fan ...

[@scotranney8456]

Try to get your hands on a proton Defy! Hard to find but fly amazing. Listening to Paul do commentary on your throws is just about the coolest thing ever. The kid needs to be commentating some pro rounds this season!

[@dreamstryder]

Love seeing the Trace get some love... It's such an underrated disc.

[@fisherguy45]

It is fun watching someone of this caliber relearn a bag

[@rynoturtle]

Also, The ion and spin are great putting putters

[@BigK0003]

MVP putters are different.. I 100% believe this.

[@kamlesh7977]

Congrats you are awarded 🎁🤍lucky fan .,,

[@2020-q1p]

I'll keep an eye out for Paul, very skilled and likable.

[@brianmassey593]

I love how simon made sure that p2 didnt go in after he caught it off the basket

[@kamlesh7977]

Congrats you are awarded 🎁🤍lucky fan .,

[@Lamber5]

It's my opinion the Envy is a great overstable throwing putter, much more torque resistant and overstable in the eclipse plastic than I think what Simon is expecting. The throw early in the video fought out quickly. An electron Envy or beat in Eclipse/Neutron Envy is what I think he is expecting in flight. All new discs creates a slightly skewed outlook on how things are flying, especially when pros are used to carrying the same discs for months to years. It'll settle in once he gets more experience and more beat in discs.

[@jasonbenton72]

I think Simon would love the streamline pilot. It flies a lot like a p2

[@kamlesh7977]

Congrats you are awarded 🎁🤍lucky fan

[@hardrockfreak1337]

Defy is one of the most underrated discs out there. Hope Simon can give it the good reputation it deserves.

[@TKDiscGolf]

So glad you joined Tesla army!!!!

[@stephencervantez82]

Simon has slowly became my favorite MPO player. Love these videos.

[@modularcuriosity]

Simon plays better in slippers throwing unfamiliar disc than I do with my own bag.

[@jessewilliams7192]

Defy was the first real disc I used! It flies similar to my Star Wraiths. I had no business throwing an 11 speed as a newbie but it didn’t stop me from enjoying the 70’ spike hyzers I was throwing off the fairway. I recently retired it and brought it to DGLO for autographs.

[@Chris.Davies]

FYI: Out of 1,683 PDGA-approved golf disc moulds, I think there are only 29 with wings of 25mm. And... there are just 5 approved moulds with wings of 26mm. The venerable Destroyer is just 22mm.

[@TooLeegitToQuit]

Tesla is definitely one of my favorites, I use it over the Volt because it feels better in the hand (though you seem to be killing it with the Volt too). Would like to see you try out the Entropy (like a Zone) and a Zenith (like a Photon, but a bit less stable).

[@stevenschnitzer5433]

So excited to watch you next season Simon! You’re so genuine and talented, have a good break with the new bag and family! You got lots of golf left to play!

[@stmn346]

Paul looks like he’s going to be someone to reckon with.

[@jaimeperry7326]

No kidding ... can you imagine throwing a filmed round with SImon. I'd shank half my throws at least and that kid was crazy accurate. Not intimidated at all.

[@Railer61]

Hope Simon will have his discs more dialed in when the season starts. Got a feeling he'll be feature card spot on MVP's ran tournaments

[@subspaceanomaly]

if he can't make the adjustments and tanks this season that would be quite grim now that everyone is so invested

[@Japeyyy]

Remember to try out the pilot from streamline. I love that disc, perfect throwing putter!!

[@miklu9915]

Play only delirium round, C1 u can putt putters
