Today the Ledgestone team is happy to announce the molds that will be released to vendors for the 2023 Ledgestone Limited Edition disc program. This year Ledgestone Limited Edition discs will be released over 3 different waves. The plan would call for approximate releases in February 2023, April 2023 and June 2023. Ledgestone will also have limited discs available exclusively at the Ledgestone retail website throughout the year and will have a special wave during the Ledgestone event. This announcement is the 5th in our Twelve Days of Ledgestone promotion.
With the day 5 announcement, Ledgestone is doing a 20% off sale for any Ledgestone LE discs on the site. These include any of the special Wave disc and Ledgestone exclusive LE discs that the team has dropped throughout the year. This sale will only run today, December 16th exclusively at the Ledgestone retail website. This discount will be above and beyond any other discounts offered. “We wanted to add some extra value with our 12 Days of Ledgestone promotion this year, and that is why we are offering these daily, exclusive discounts,” said Heinold.
Coming up with the disc schedule is always a fun challenge for Ledgestone TD Nate Heinold. “The process really starts with asking people what they want to see. We do some polls online and then gauge what has sold well in the past. We also evaluate new molds as they come out,” said Heinold. One of the main benefits for the Ledgestone program is bringing back molds that do not get a lot of attention in stock runs, or molds that are out of production. “A lot of these older discs have great markets, and sometimes releasing these older discs in limited runs (in a newer plastic) will reinvigorate fans of that disc, or bring new fans to certain discs,” continued Heinold. Additionally it’s always challenging to figure out stamps for all of the discs. To keep things fresh and unique, Ledgestone is bringing on several new designers for 2023 while continuing to work with past designers Les White, Justin Lago and Brian Allen. In addition Ledgestone will continue to work with in house Ledgestone and Discraft designers.
The Ledgestone fundraiser discs are one of the primary fundraising methods for the tournament. “All of the vendor support for these discs really helps make Ledgestone what it is. We are extremely grateful to all of the vendors who have supported us over the years,” said Heinold. Vendors supporting the event at the top level include the following vendors:
