Meet the Team
Former co-captains of their high school’s ultimate team, Russell and Nolan have built on their friendship and passion for flying discs by launching DISCIN. Through the natural evolution of the disc thrower, their legs began to fail them and the pull of disc golf became too alluring. Now they are full time discers and want to grow the sport by letting players enjoy disc golf even when the weather will not allow it.
Russell Ruffolo
Russell is a software engineer, physicist, and game developer with a life-long love of throwing discs. He is dedicated to perfectly simulating the flight of a disc.
If he were a disc, he’d be an understable driver.
Nolan Boyle
Nolan first gained interest in discs as a boy scout, his troop played ultimate frisbee on every outing. The floaty, lofty flight was mesmerizing, and the desire to grip it and rip it was born. These days he’s making 3D models, landscapes and testing Russell’s flight model.
If he were a disc, he’d be a throwing putter.
