Discs specially selected to provide optimal flight performance for players using a Forehand throwing motion
The discs below have been specially selected for their ability to increase rotational inertia and torque-resistance, balancing the relatively low RPMs and relatively high levels of off-axis torque associated with Forehand throwing motions.
To learn more about the differences between Backhand and Forehand disc selection, (see our complete video guide here).
NOTE: In some categories, we do recommend the same disc for both Forehand and Backhand players, particularly in lower Speed classes. In these cases, the discs perform equally well for both player types.
Superior distance control and flight line predictability
Balanced performance for driving and putting
High wind-resistance and super-straight low-speed flight
More recorded Aces than any other disc.
Holds a wide range of shot lines for maximum versatility
Predictable flights and precise landings in all conditions.
Perfect for Anhyzers; essential for Backhand players who cannot also throw Forehand
Easy to throw straight and far, even for beginners. Classic, versatile disc
Superior predictability, with straight high-speed flight and moderate Fade
Maximum control and wind resistance. Great for flex shots and hyzers.
Perfect for Anhyzers and Distance Rollers. A bag essential if you only throw Backhand
Balanced stability extends time-in-flight for maximum distance performance
Superior predictability, with straight high-speed flight and moderate Fade
Maximum control and wind resistance. Great for flex shots and hyzers.

The ultimate overstable, high Fade Hyzer-Bomb Backhand distance driver!
Speed measures the ability of a disc to “cut” through the air, with high-Speed discs having sharply angled, wide rims.
High speed discs (11-15) have the longest flight potential, but they also require the highest release velocity and best throwing technique to provide optimal flights.
Lower speed discs have less distance potential, but they will provide superior control and more optimized flights at lower speeds.
For this reason. lower speed drivers (6-10) are recommended for beginners looking for optimal flight performance and advanced players looking for more control in narrow fairways.
Fade measures the tendency of a disc to hook at the end of flight as it slows.
Produces a strong hook at the end of flight, providing less distance but better distance control.
High fade discs have superior wind-resistance and are the best options for Flex Shots, Hyzers, and Overheads.
Produces straighter finishes, providing more flight distance. Low Fade discs also provide more versatility as they are better able to hold a variety of flight angles.
Low-fade discs are essential for Anhyzer shots.
Glide measures the amount of lift generated by the disc. It is best used to compare discs in the same Speed class.
Extends the flight time of the disc, providing the best/longest flight distance potential.
High Glide discs are more susceptible to flight variations caused by headwinds and tailwinds
Provides superior distance control. Low Glide is also the best option for Overhead Shots (thumber, tomahawk, etc.).
Turn measures the tendency of a disc to “Turn Over” or “Flip” during high-speed flight, pulling the disc in the opposite direction of its natural Fade.
Must be thrown at extremely high speeds to turn over.
Overstable discs are the most predictable and wind resistant discs, but they must be thrown with significant velocity to produce distance-optimized flights.
Turn over at more moderate speeds, generating optimal max-distance flight patterns much more easily than Overstable discs.
Understable disc flights are less predictable than those of Overstable discs, particularly on windy days.
As discs wear with use, they become increasingly understable.
Durability measures the tendency of a disc to maintain its like-new flight patterns.
Additionally, when a disc is available in more than one plastic option, the version produced with more durable plastic is typically more stable and wind-resistant than the version produced with less durable plastic (find out why HERE).
Increases long-term consistency and predictability; particularly important for control drivers and high-wind discs.
Allows players to more easily “tune” discs to provide different stability levels. This practice is most common for players who like to carry several copies of their favorite molds.
Measures overall grip performance.
Softer and/or less durable plastics tend to provide the best overall grip.
Some ultra-premium plastics also deliver high grip through the addition of specialized polymers in the resin blends. These materials are much more costly, but they allow manufacturers to produce discs that provide both high grip and high durability.

Lower-Weight Discs have been proven to produce longer flights than heavier discs for two reasons:
Light-weighting allows discs to stay aloft at lower speeds, increasing flight duration and distance. Learn more with our complete Glide Video Guide.
Reducing disc weight helps players generate more release velocity, and release velocity has been proven to be the most important factor in determining drive distance. Learn more Here.
