ABOUT THE ART:
Justin Lago, a seasoned creator with an unconventional approach to art and design, has infused 20+ years of experience into crafting the "Elemental Bear" stamp for this season’s discs. His portfolio showcases his ability to blend thought-provoking graphics, vivid colors, and imaginative themes into one-of-a-kind creations.

The "Elemental Bear" stamp embodies the raw power and majestic nature of the great outdoors that is so integral to disc golf. Inspired by the elements, the design portrays a bear enveloped in flames, capturing the essence of fire's transformative energy — a perfect metaphor for the fierce spirit and passion we bring to the game.

MATERIAL:
Axiom Firm Electron plastic sits near the middle ground in their lineup, offering a blend of grip, control, and durability that appeals to a wide range of disc golfers. Here's a breakdown of its key characteristics:

Grip: While not quite as tacky as the Soft Electron, Firm Electron still provides excellent grip, even in less-than-ideal conditions like rain or cold weather. This makes it a versatile choice for various discs, from putters and mids to fairway drivers.

Flexibility: "Firm" accurately reflects the plastic's feel. It's more rigid than Soft but retains a degree of flexibility compared to stiffer premium plastics. This balance offers control on finesse shots while maintaining power potential for throws requiring snap.

Durability: This is where Firm Electron shines. It excels in lasting round after round, resisting scuffs and dings better than the softer options. Expect it to hold its flight characteristics longer, making it a good choice for discs you rely on frequently.

Flight Characteristics: Compared to Soft Electron, Firm Electron discs typically start out more stable, meaning they resist turning over and hold their line better in headwinds. They also experience a slower, more predictable break-in period, gradually becoming straighter with use. However, the specific flight will vary depending on the disc model.

Availability: Firm Electron is widely used across Axiom's disc lineup, covering putters, mids, fairway drivers, and even distance drivers. This allows you to find discs in this plastic for various shot types within your bag.

Color Selection: While not as expansive as some premium plastics, you'll still find a decent variety of colors to choose from.

Feel Preference: Some players may find Firm Electron a bit too stiff for their liking, especially when compared to Soft.

Axiom Firm Electron plastic provides a well-rounded option for disc golfers seeking a balance between grip, control, and durability. Its versatility across disc types and resistance to wear make it a solid choice for casual and competitive players alike.

DESCRIPTION:
The second disc in the Simon Line is officially here, the Electron Pixel!  Pixel has a deep profile with a small micro bead, perfect for the smoothest possible release. Simon designed the Pixel to be an effortless putter, needing just a little bit of spin to glide right to the basket. Whether you’re a spin or push putter, the Pixel is an ideal putter for someone who wants a laser-straight flight.

The Pixel isn’t just excellent for putting, it’s also a very neutral flying disc off the tee or for approaches. Whether you’re putting, driving, or approaching, all you need is to pick your target and let the Pixel do the rest.

The release of the Pixel is also the debut of a new blend of Electron Plastic. With an increase in grip and tackiness across the board, and a much softer blend of Soft, the Pixel is truly a culmination of MVP’s and Simon’s years of experience. The putter of choice for 7x Disc Golf Pro Tour winner Simon Lizotte, take your game to the next level with the Electron Pixel!
