Gavin Rathbun has left Discamnia and will be joining Dynamic Discs on a 1 year deal for the 2022 season. Makes sense for a rising star like himself. Discmania already has Eagle, Simon and Kyle (who is showing he is just as good as his teammates).
Details of the deal are disclosed. But for the year it will include:
- Tour Series disc, monthly stipend, a
- Monthly Stipend
- ‘Big’ bonus structure
- Media and PR opportunities (More youtube content?) Yes please
With potential to resign for a long term deal towards the end of the season.
Dynamic Discs has been criticized for their lack of ‘superstars’. Top pros in the MPO field that can go and win a major elite series on tour. I think Gavin gives them a high chance alongside Chris Clemsons.
Gavin is young and has shown he can compete with the top pros. An injury cut his season short. But he’s rehabbing and will be back better.
Despite Dynamic Discs not having a ton of superstardom yet. They have Eric McGabe as Tour manager. And I believe Eric and his team are working hard to bring super stars there. With so many young stars entering the game. It’s just a matter of time. And I think Gavin helps fuel that.
