Westside Disc Golf Distance Driver Origio Burst King 14/5/-1.5/3 - Choose Exact Disc
SKU: DG-WD-ORB-KING (REF1174-5)
Description
The Westside Origio Burst King distance driver is Westside's most popular high-speed driver, molded in Origio Burst plastic. It's built for newer players and anyone who wants easy distance and turnovers, and it's at its best on max-distance drives and rollers. Westside Discs is a Finnish brand known for mythology-inspired mold names, molded at Latitude 64's factory in Sweden as part of the Trilogy family alongside Latitude 64 and Dynamic Discs.
Origio Burst Plastic
Origio is the least expensive plastic Westside makes, the counterpart to Latitude 64's Retro and Dynamic Discs' Prime. It's affordable, grippy out of the box, and quick to beat in toward a more understable, workable flight, a smart choice for learning or for wooded and water-lined courses. Burst mixes swirled color through the plastic; it's cosmetic only, and no two come out the same.
The Mold
The King is Westside's farthest-flying disc, designed to let the average player experience a long-distance flight. It has a good grip and a high dome that traps the air and rides on it. For pros, it's the longest-flying disc and roller in the bag.
Stability
The King is stable-to-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. 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 | 14 | Very high speed that needs strong arm speed to fly as rated. |
| Glide | 5 | Lots of glide to help it stay in the air and add distance. |
| Turn | -1.5 | A touch of high-speed turn to the right (RHBH) for a little extra distance. |
| Fade | 3 | A strong, reliable fade to the left (RHBH) at the end of the flight. |
