Who's throwing discs with ribbons on them tomorrow? Was thinking with all the foot traffic from everyone and additional snow this week that it might be a good idea to be able to find them easily. Was out there before this big storm and it was still pretty easy to spot discs, but I imagine that's changed drastically...

I'm planning on it. I've never done it before though.. You just use a little piece of duct tape on the bottom center with some gift ribbon?

Like 2ft of ribbon?

I use a little closer to three feet, but I'm 6'4", so I'm not likely to step on it. I saw this awhile ago as an instructional. If you are using Christmas ribbon, probably don't need to slice the tip like he does since it may weaken it. I use Gorilla Glue tape as well. 2-3 times more adhesive than regular duck tape. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yq7onUGx5So

use dental floss as it does'nt effect the flight pattern. Make sure that you use the cinnamon flavored kind as they are easier to find cause if you dont see it you will smell it!!!! Hope that helped see you all in the am!!!!!Peace!

Wish id have known about gorilla tape, I bought duct tape today just for this lol. I'll just stick with it and bring the roll along in case I need more! Thanks ninja for the tip as well! Does ribbon mess you up too much?

just remember if you tape the ribbon to the top it tends to make the disc under stable and if you tape to the bottom it will make it over stable if this helps!

Hahaha bill likes to wear the dental floss as underwear, take it off in the parking lot and then glue it to his disc.

Things just got weird.. Haha! Thanks for the tip! I'd rather overstable any day!
