Default Seattle SuperClassic - PDGA C - Saturday, October 2



Seattle SuperClassic - PDGA C tier - Saturday, October 2

2 round of 18 holes at Lakewood to try out superclass
__________________________________________________ _____________

Meet at the lower parking lot at Lakewood by hole 14
Check in: 9-9:30am (first come first choice on the discs!)
Player's SuperMeeting: 9:45am
SuperStart: 10:00am

REGISTRATION IS OPEN: I'm going to be restricting the player limit to 40 players maximum (although I doubt we reach that).

The first 20 registered and paid players and ALL of those who register BEFORE September 20th will receive a custom stamped Superclass disc for the tourney. If you register after September 20th, I can't guarantee a disc.

Cost: $14 if you would like to get a custom stamped superclass disc (Hero 235) OR $10 if you would like to play with your own discs (no player's pack). Chainbangerz club members can take $1 off either entry fee option.

Paypal (cefire@sbcglobal.net), check (3411 12th Avenue W, Seattle 98119), or cash in person all work for me. If you are sending a check be sure to send me an email so I know you are IN!

Payout: Most of the entry goes to buying discs and to PDGA so, as usual I'll just have a few things to give away (and probably the Chainbangerz shop will too!), but this will mostly be a chance to try out superclass for a day.

Seattle SuperClassic FAQ:

Will this affect my PDGA rating?
No, PDGA will calculate a SEPARATE rating for superclass, this will have no effect on your "regular disc" rating.

Do I have to pay the $10 PDGA fee if I'm not a member?
Nope, PDGA superclass events have an exemption from the non-member SuperFee.

What discs are legal for SuperClass?
The most common are the Zephyr, Hero 235, Te Moko, SuperStar, and almost all large diameter lids like ultimate discs.

What discs are NOT legal for SuperClass?
Sonics, Condors, Polecats, and regular putters like Aviars, Wizards, and Magics are all NOT SuperLegal for play.

What is the SuperLayout? (This is if all goes as planned, so may change!)
Pins: 1-short left, 2-deep left, 3-long, 5-see below, 9-short, 10-long, Geezer-long, 12-long, 15-short, 16-long, 17-long, 18-long
I've tried to create holes which will be either challenging 2's or that will be challenging 3's (par 4's with SuperClass discs)

Hole 5: For the first round, we are going to play to the long pin on 5 and then play the SuperShort tee to basket 6. For the afternoon, this will reverse and we will play 5 to the short pin and then regular 6.

What is SuperPar?
Holes 2, 5/6, 8, 10, 13, 14, 16, 17, & 18 will be par 4 holes and Geezer long will be a par 5 hole. Total par will be 65.

Will I have SuperFun without my Boss/Nuke/Katana?
Yup, these things are fun to watch SuperFly and great for developing wrist control and SuperLong range putter/midrange accuracy.

I don't have a ton of details, but as usual the tourney will be ultralow cost and everyone will get a superclass disc in their player's pack and a special surprise too!
I won't ruin the surprise Andrew, I promise!

Done. I keep my Hero 235 in the bag all the time now, and I keep finding more and more excuses for throwing it. Now I have a good one!

I figure if I get married in VA on Saturday, I could catch the redeye to make this event Sunday.
What's so hard to understand about that? Perfectly reasonable.

If this one works out, I'm sure they'll be others. Sorry to schedule over your wedding! It wasn't on Treelove's calendar

Sooo, a little change to the previous plans, we're going to have to move this to Saturday because the first Sunday in October date is traditionally the Seattle Disc Golf Club Championships. I spoke with Lowell and the SDGCC will be happening on that date (an early heads up )

As an added benefit, Brian's marriage will now last until the first year his anniversary conflicts with an event

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 2nd is the new date for the Seattle SuperClassic!

Schweet, lookin forward to this. After seeing Toby's inquiries in the other thread, do you know what kind of discs you're getting, Andrew?

I just placed a personal order for:

Hero 235's (Star and Dx)
Zephyr's (Dx)
Te Moko

I'm strongly leaning towards the Hero 235's because after using both the Zephyr and 235 at Lakewood on Sunday, I could throw the 235 further and more accurately. However, the Zephyr has more resistance to turn in general so it makes a good "hyzer" disc for those trick shots. I'm not sure about the Te Moko's because I think the worldwide supply on those things is pretty limited, trying to find 20 or so in a decent weight would probably be pretty difficult.

Can we pull out the Discraft 175g Ultrastar if needed? There are a lot of ultimate players with a pile of these sitting around.

Yes, but you might find the J-Star (Junior Ultimate disc also made by Discraft) with a diameter like the Zephyr works a little better, especially for putting.
