Calling Beijing's Arts and Design People: China Nationals Disc Design... also, anyone in U.S. in May?

[Tao]

The 5th annual China Nationals tournament will be in Beijing on May
21-22, and here's your chance to contribute in a big way.

We have secured a deal with Discraft, but we need to send in a disc
design before the end of the month, so here's what I'm hoping this
community can provide:

An IDEA for a disc design by Saturday, March 19. I have an idea that
may or may not work, so if you're an arts/design person, let me know
and we will form a crack team of disc designers and get together some
day and hammer something out.

A final GRAPHIC by Monday, March 28. Again, see above note: I'm
willing to make a design team and whip up a design on some day.

You will be rewarded with a Discraft disc, credit for the design in
tourney packet, and ... I'll think of something else.

ANOTHER IMPORTANT REQUEST: Will anyone be in the U.S. around mid-May
and COMING BACK TO BEIJING at that time? Because we would ask if you
can bring back a bag of discs for us via carry-on. You will be
compensated. Please let me know.

Previous designs have used:

Great wall
Tiananmen
Terracotta Army

Disc design does not need to be Beijing specific ...

Just some ideas off the top of my head:

A Taichi bagua pattern (something like this:
http://www.lotusinstitute.com/bagua4.jpg), punning on 'ultimate' (this
probably has been done many times)

A Chinese imperial dragon design (like this:

(words about the open can go around the edge like in the image)
