The Supersonic Team
Supersonic is a Danish company that designs, develops and produces discs.
At Supersonic Discs we've assembled a Super Team, where we all strive to make Supersonic Discs flourish by using our expertise and experience in each of our own individual skillsets.
Our Logo
Just like when an object breaks the speed of sound and makes supersonic waves, our logo is a representation of what our company strives to do in the disc sport, to make waves and spread our products far and wide, just like when something makes a sonic boom the sound waves travels far and wide, that’s what we strive to achieve with our unique and innovative disc lines.
The supersonic history
The first Supersonic wave happened way back when Peter first started playing the disc sports, when it came to Denmark back in the 70’s, and his passion for the sport grew into a nerdy approach to always better himself and train until he couldn’t anymore, pushing himself to the limits that the discs placed upon his, limitations that he pondered how he could push further.
But the second, and bigger Supersonic wave happened a summer day in 2022, when he was playing a game on a course, where one person from his group stood before a waterhole and had to decide to gamble either loosing one of his good discs in hopes it’ll make it to the other side, or simply sacrifice another disc to the water that he didn’t use, to get closer to the basket.
And that’s when the thought appeared, why isn’t there any discs that flies far enough to make it to the other side of the waterhole, but if it were to hit the water, that it could still float in the water so the players wouldn’t be lost at the bottom of the water hole.
After that he researched the project, and saw a common pattern where discs were molded after an airplane wing, but Peter’s theory was that a disc is a gyroscope shape and doesn’t fly like an airplane wing, since it doesn’t have a motor and spins around itself using its gyroscopic shape to push itself further forward.
After that revelation he started to make prototypes and make his own discs, where he quickly found out that, his discs flew seamlessly through the air with less force, giving his discs more glide and more precession, that’s why he worked out his patent and started to make Supersonic a reality.
But to carry this brand further than just being a disc in Peter’s hand, he first got in contact Nikolaj, who joined the team to give his expertise and figure out how to mass produce Supersonic discs. Next came Bjørn, who Peter invited in due to his amazing art and wonderful ability to brand Supersonic discs, giving us our unique branding.
Our journey started as a small Supersonic wave of an idea, resulting in a product where we strive to make discs that make it possible for everybody to enjoy the disc sports, whether your new or experience, starting out in the sport or need another reason to come back on the playing field. Our disc can be used and thrown by everyone, with less strain and more precision, making it possible for everybody to create their own Supersonic waves on the course, with their Supersonic Discs.

These skills is an integral and important part of our brand. Since he is the man behind each and every one of our unique and carefully crafted designs.
Bjørn was a part of the Danish disc scene back in the days, he was a part of pioneering the sport, where he artfully expressed himself through freestyle.

Nikolaj
Production Leader
Nikolaj is lead of our production, he’s an important part of our team, since without him, we wouldn't have been able to produce our discs.
His expertise is apparent with how good he is at finding the right production methods and where the best go to locations are to get the products produced.
His ability to source and get things into productions is a thing he has perfected time and time again, since he's had his hand in many other products. And Supersonic is his newest ambition to optimize and produce our discs.
He may not have been a part of the disc scene before, but this doesn't mean he goes down on the quality of our discs, the quality is always of utmost importance.
He first tried out playing disc golf when he got our discs in hand, playing his first holes with a Supersonic Disc.
Sune
Business & Partnerships
Sune is part of the business side of Supersonic, working with retailers, partnerships and supporting projects, events and collaborations.
He is often involved as a sparring partner on strategic and financial topics, and helps out with coordination when needed.
With a background as both general manager and project manager, he brings structure and an overview to different parts of the work.
Sune has been part of the disc community since 1987, mainly through Ultimate, where the focus has always been more on the spirit of the game and having fun than competition. Over the years he has been involved in different parts of the scene and is still playing today.
Disc golf never really stuck for him before, since the throwing style didn’t match well with Ultimate. But with the Supersonic discs, that changed — making it possible to play both without changing the natural throw.
August
Testing & So-Me
August is one of our main testers, working with new discs to make sure they perform across both light and heavy weights—and at both high and low arm speeds.
He comes from playing disc golf at a high level in Denmark, winning championships such as the Sealand Championships. But his focus shifted when the lighter Loop opened up new parts of the sport. Since then, he has moved into disciplines like self-caught flight and discathon—where he has already won a World Championship in self-caught flight and taken silver in discathon.
For August, it’s not just about disc golf. It’s about what disc sports can be when you don’t limit how a disc is supposed to be thrown or used.
His role in Supersonic is both testing and showing that side of the sport. Through social media, he helps share what the discs can actually do when you stop treating them like traditional discs—across different ways of playing, not just how they’re traditionally thrown.
