As the title of the post suggest it is the ‘Markmont. Classic Magnum Opus’.

Literally a Markmont. Classic.

OD used that term around the time they came out with the Legendary Terrarian, IIRC. I think it refers to the way they added power by adding mass inside the cup. The Legendary Terrarian and Top Deck are the two examples of that I can think of off hand, though the Top Deck predates that term I think.

I don’t think the Kuntosh 5kQV qualifies as that has weight added directly to the rim, but I’m not entirely certain.

I haven’t heard the term used since.

> This is a refined Markmont. Classic fitted with 7075. There were no major tweaks to the design, just minor instances like some radius transitions and the cup area around the side affect area :+1:t6:

I kinda alludes to it right in the copy. The main idea with this one wasn’t really to make a much more powerful version, but rather use the 7075 to tweak the characteristics. At least, that was what I gleaned from it, and what Mark added above. I’m being redundant, I guess… 🤷‍♂️

“There’s a really specific balance I wanted to strike. If too stable it takes away from the throws play signature, but too unstable and it is too sensitive to play mistakes (yet this is crucial to allow for easier manipulation of the throws speed and axis adjustment). Right in the middle is where I wanted to be. Achieving this with a simple amount of visual details and details that were unique to the Markmont. brand specifically, was the challenge.”

I managed to grab a champagne one, those went so quick so I am pretty happy cause those look so clean. The black/silver and pink/teal fades were also pretty awesome but also went as quickly lol.

Yeah I debated between that and the champagne, ended up with the fade since it was still around while the champagne was gone in like two minutes lol.
