    Default Anybody have any info on the new discs coming?

    The newer , I view as potentially the best, ones that are realistically here that I know of are the freedom and the spinal kinetics. I have also seen the CA disc picture by ranier and I have seen articles on here and others about the 3df one that they are testing. Anybody have any others that have new ones with elastomer/polymer/long lasting fabric cores that may be coming or even being early tested right now?
