Nikko drinks the kool-aid. Finally signs with Innova.

Any thoughts?

Can you elaborate?  What specifics do you know, and how?  I am a local Missourian and know many players sponsored by Gateway.  It doesn't seem that Dave dropped all of his sponsorships.  If that were the case, I'd bet money many of us--especially those of us in the heart of Gateway territory--would have heard a lot more about it before now.  That is, unless some sort of 'gag order' was also issued...

I am sorry, I never should have posted that comment given that I would not be willing to follow it up with a statement of facts and sources. That was silly of me. I also should not have used the word "any;" I should have said "some." I know of some who were also dropped around the same time.

[Socsavvy]

Thanks for clarifying.  Sounds like you have some solid info and it definitely fits the narrative.  If that's really the line of thinking Dave was on, I wouldn't be surprised to hear that some of my buddies were--or will soon be--dropped as well.  Bummer.  I can't imagine it would ever be good to lose such needed support, but hopefully they'll share some of Nikko's luck (and skill!) and make their next step a BIG one in an even better direction!

Happy for Nikko !!!  Hope everything works out for him !!!

He started off this weekend with a big W in Las Vegas.

I was there sat and he threw as expected of someone of his level.. was really a blast to watch

No one has mentioned whether it's an exclusive sponsorship. Maybe he will continue to throw a buzz and gateway putters. I  know I sure would.

[Allonzy]

Innova only gives exclusive sponsorships, their players are only allowed to throw discs made by Innova, Discmania and Millenium. If they let Nikko carry a mixed bag they will have to let every team member do the same, this would take away from the companies sales.

[Pete Maher]

[Christian Lamb]
