Overthinking it

I think about “why” too much.

Why do you believe that?

Why do you want to buy that?

Why does Mint need to be involved?

Why do they care about flight numbers?

If you’ve been following Mint's releases closely you’ll see a growing trend.

We are making significantly more lightweight discs.

Freetails, Salamanders, Diamondbacks.

A big reason we chose Prodigy was access to 150g in more plastics and models.

This generation of players want more lightweight discs.

But why?

I mean I know why.

It’s easier to throw. It’s easier to get up to speed.

It covers up gaps in technique.

That’s not the why I want to focus on.

Why do players today want more lightweight discs than they did a decade ago?

I think I know.

Do you know why?
