Latitude Stiletto will
slice through anything!

Stiletto Opto
17 maj, 2013 – 12:35

Here is the latest news from the Latitude factory:

We will start shipping out the Stiletto early next week. It will be available in Opto and Gold and is the most overstable disc we have made to date! Most likely we will never produce something more overstable. This disc was designed based on feedback from the players we now sponsor. They have been saying the there are some mean winds in the midwest and that they need something that they can fall back on in even the worst conditions.

So here it is and we would be very surprised if we are told that it is not overstable enough. If somone did say that we would probably think that it was the player’s fault and not the disc’s. Prototype testing was done at our Major Copenhagen Open earlier in May and the top pros were very excited to see it in the air. This included curious players from other teams …

The official sales start of this is June 1st so have a happy windy summer!

Feel the Mace

Mace Gold - Latitude64°
6 mars, 2013 – 05:42

Mace is the midrange for the masses. Being the fifth Latitude 64° mid, the Mace has taken the best of our previous molds to end up as a very solid ”all you need” midrange. The Mace can handle a big arm and also be controlled by players with less power. It will hold a hyzer line, fly reliably straight or work its way back on a long anhyzer drive. One disc challenge? Look no further…

Our viking ancestors never went into battle without their favorite Mace. That mindset is now valid again.

Flight ratings are:
Speed: 5, Glide: 5, Turn: 0, Fade: 1,5

The Indian and the Arrow

David Feldberg - Latitude64°

Recently David Feldberg decided to join forces with us in our efforts to be a larger part of the U.S. disc golf scene. In doing this he said that we would find out if it is ”the indian or the arrow” referring to the switch in disc brands he just did. Well this weekend’s A-tier, Gentlemen’s Club Challenge, suggests that it is both the Indian and the Arrow.

Feldberg comes away with the win after an impressive 1085-rated last round in very windy conditions. On day one David shot 1043 and 1053-rated rounds to leave him in third going into Sunday’s final round. Having tied with Will Schusterick at the end of the round Feldberg took the win after a play off. Congrats from all of us at Latitude 64°!

World Champion joins Team Lat 64°!

David Feldberg joins Latitude 64°

Latitude 64° started designing discs in 2005 and step by step improved our skills in both mold design and injection molding.

In 2008 we joined up with one of Europes best performing pros of all time, Jesper Lundmark, and came out with several discs that he was part of making by giving feedback and testing prototypes. Jesper has since become a father of two and also runs a successful business of his own which has led to less time to play disc golf. Our experience of having him on the team has shown us the value of such co-operations and for some time we have been looking into signing a top pro in the USA to be part of our operation.

Today we are very excited to announce that David Feldberg, one of Disc Golf’s most successful ambassadors ever, will be joining us and our team!

The plan is that David will travel the world spreading word about the sport we love and also to compete using discs made in our factory at Latitude 64°.

His appreciated clinics will continue to be a large part of what he fills his time with when not playing on the tour.

We have gotten to know David when he has been playing in Europe and especially when he has been visiting us to play the PDGA Major Scandinavian Open in Skellefteå where Latitude 64° is situated. David and Jesper have played together on the lead card several times. Jesper won the Major European Open 2009 just after switching to Latitude discs and David won the Major Scandinavian Open in 2010.

The two have had a mutual respect for each other which makes it an even easier step for us to bring Feldberg on board.

We will have a small number of players joining Feldberg on the U.S. team for 2013. These are players that are a mix of new talents, veterans, amateurs and pros. All are players that have contributed to our success in the last couple of years by competing successfully with our discs, giving feedback, and helping out in other ways! These players are in alphabetical order: PDGA Putting World Champion Weston Isaacs, Rob Liebman, Tyler Liebman, Brandon Redmond and Andrew Wiler. Work on a team page is on the way…

On top of this we will be supporting a larger team in the U.S. that has been built over the years by Dynamic Discs. We will be supporting players on this team with discs and DD will supply their popular apparel to team players.

To sum things up we are looking forward to the 2013 season even more than we have looked forward to any season to date!

Dynamic Discs

We are happy to announce a new chapter in the history of Latitude 64°.

Starting at the 2012 PDGA World’s a co-operation with Dynamic Discs has been developing.
Already being one of our close partners in USA, we felt it only natural to seriously consider being a part of DD’s plan to develop a disc line of their own.

Latitude 64° and Dynamic Discs have been growing side by side on separate continents for the last 6 years and are now taking a big step toward bringing the efforts of both companies together to further impact the sport of Disc Golf.

Initially, there will be a release of 4 discs exclusively developed for DD. Early production and testing has been done with the participation of DD’s owner Jeremy Rusco, who flew over to Sweden to make sure his first discs were just as he wanted them to be.

Latitude 64° produces discs for Westside Discs in Finland using Westside molds. This part of our history made us feel secure in our ability to develop a new disc line with Dynamic Discs.

Eze Zero limited

Eze Zero limited

There has been some experimenting on our plastics during 2012 as some of you might have noticed. Our putter plastic Zero Line was replaced by Eze Line early in the year. The reason for this was mainly to be able to produce drivers and midranges in the same material we use for putters. Looking back at the season that is now ending, we have decided to go back to Zero Line because we were not satisfied with the final results. In 2013 we will offer Zero line putters in two degrees of stiffness, Zero Hard and Zero Soft. This is something we did in our early history and have received requests to do again.
