The Viking Thor is a very high-speed distance driver with good glide and moderate fade. It produces a reliably overstable flight, making it a dependable choice in windy conditions and for shots that require a consistent finish.
Very high speed (14) requires elite arm speed — most players won't reach this disc's potential.
Release flat with power — the disc will resist turning over and finish reliably left (RHBH). Great for forehand drives.
This high-speed distance driver from Viking is built for players who can generate significant power and arm speed. With a flat flight path and a reliable hard fade at the end, the Thor cuts through the air with ease. It resists turning over, holding a straight line before locking into a strong left finish. This overstable nature helps it punch through wind, ensuring the disc doesn't flip over even when driven hard. Disc golfers with elite arm speed will get the most out of this heavy-hitter, utilizing it for controlled distance drives where a hard left fade is desired. It is an excellent choice for forehand approaches and navigating tight lines, as the skip potential on landing helps the disc glide further. Because the disc demands high velocity to fly smoothly, intermediate players may find it too difficult, as they might lack the power to overcome the stability.

What the Viking Thor's flight numbers mean for your game
This disc demands elite arm speed. Most recreational players will find it flies understable until they develop enough power.
Good glide allows this disc to stay aloft longer, adding distance. However, it may be more affected by headwinds.
This disc resists turning during the high-speed phase of flight. It holds its line or moves left (for RHBH throwers) from the moment of release.
Moderate end-of-flight fade. This disc reliably finishes left (RHBH), making it predictable for placement shots.
