Discmania Disc Golf Glow C-line DD Special Edition Distance Driver 11/6/-3/1
by
Discmania
SKU: DG-DM-GCL-DDSE (REF2736-2)
Description
The Discmania Glow C-Line DD distance driver is the most understable distance driver in Discmania's Originals line, molded in Glow C-Line plastic. It's built for newer players and anyone who wants easy distance and turnovers, and it's at its best on easy distance with fairway-driver control. This listing is the Special Edition Glow release of the DD.
Glow C-Line Plastic
Glow C-Line is a very durable blend of C-Line plastic that glows in the dark, reserved for fundraising projects and specialty discs. C-Line is Discmania's most durable plastic, and these discs wear down very slowly. They keep their original flight for an extended time and perform predictably, avoiding damage better than any other plastic even in heavy woods or on rugged courses. It has good grip, a showstopper see-through look, and is typically the most stable blend in Discmania's lineup.
The Mold
DD stands for "distance driver," and that's exactly what it offers: the distance option when you want to uncork one, while still feeling like a controllable fairway driver. Beginners and advanced players alike notice a drastic change in added distance.
Stability
The DD is understable. Understable discs turn away from your throwing arm at speed, making turnovers and hyzer-flips easier and helping lower-power players fly straight. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it tends to drift right during the fastest part of its flight, then shows a gentle fade back to the left. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, drifting left early and fading right at the end. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. This run is rated 11/6/-3/1, while the most common DD rating in our shop is 11/6/-3/2. It suits beginners who need help getting straight flights as well as advanced players who want to shape turnovers.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 11 | Distance-driver speed that needs good arm speed to fly as rated. |
| Glide | 6 | Huge glide that floats a long way with little effort. |
| Turn | -3 | Noticeable turn to the right (RHBH) at speed, great for turnovers and hyzer-flips. |
| Fade | 1 | Very little fade, so it finishes nearly straight. |
