by
Discraft
SKU: DG-DC-WSP-ZLN (REF412-7)
Description
The Discraft Z Line Wasp midrange is an overstable, low-profile midrange with a large bead, molded in Z Line plastic. It's built for players who want full-power straight flights or technical flex lines, and it's at its best on straight-to-stable drives and flex lines. If you're shopping for a dependable Wasp for your bag, this Z Line run is a great place to start.
Z Plastic
Z is Discraft's flagship hard, translucent, and glossy plastic. It offers maximum durability, resists wear and tear, and holds its original flight stability for years. Discraft's recent Z refresh gives it an enhanced look and feel while keeping the same trusted flight, so your Wasp will fly the same way for a long time.
The Mold
The Wasp can handle full-power throws for straight-to-stable flights, or be used at lower speeds for technical flex lines that end with a consistent fade.
Stability
The Wasp is stable-to-overstable. Overstable discs resist turning over and fade hard at the end, which makes them predictable in wind and at high power. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it resists turning over and finishes with a strong, dependable fade to the left. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, with that hard fade finishing to the right. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It's best suited to intermediate and advanced players, and it's a valuable utility disc for anyone who plays in wind.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |

| Glide | 3 | Moderate glide that carries without sailing past the target. |
| Turn | 0 | No high-speed turn, so it holds its line early in flight. |
| Fade | 2 | A moderate, dependable fade at the end of the flight. |
