With a speed rating of 6 and a glide of 4, the disc maintains its momentum well without requiring excessive arm speed. The combination of a slight -2 turn and a reliable 2 fade creates a stable flight that finishes with a solid hyzer finish, allowing throwers to keep the disc flat and flying straight before it fades late in the flight. This mold is specifically designed for players looking to punch the disc through tight fairways or hit specific gaps in the trees. The moderate stability allows it to fight through headwinds without flipping over, while its manageable speed makes it accessible for newer players. Whether you are navigating a tunnel shot or trying to hold a line to the basket, this disc is versatile enough to handle the job with confidence.
