Re: D-I-Y Disc Wheel?

The J-disk design wasn't challenged as a "wheel cover" at worlds
(although such things are subject to change), and I recall that
removable wheel covers were challenged at both Master's Nats and at
Worlds. I think the criterion was in fact whether the "cover" was
removable.

Besides that, and while I know that the removable covers are
generally just fine... they do occasionally come loose and cause a
lot of mischief. Never heard of that kind of thing with the J-disk
concept.
