The AGL Alpine Cedar distance driver is AGL's flagship overstable distance driver, molded in Alpine plastic. It's built for big arms and forehand throwers who need a predictable driver, and it's at its best on big anhyzers, forehands, and headwind drives. Made in the USA by family-owned AGL, the Cedar is ready to take your game Above Ground Level.

Alpine Plastic

Alpine is AGL's premium plastic and their most-used blend. Like all AGL plastics, it's made with recycled and regrind material, so it cuts down on waste while flying just as well. Original Alpine was made at Gateway and could come out clear or opaque depending on the mix. AGL's newer Alpine runs are made by Innova with 20-40% regrind from Innova's Champion plastic, and AGL calls it extremely durable with incredible longevity. AGL also notes Alpine discs can come out with a little more dome than Woodland runs, which can add glide.

About AGL Discs

AGL, short for Above Ground Level, is a family-owned disc golf company run by the Jones family and Northern California's #1 disc golf manufacturer. All AGL discs are made in the USA, and AGL is committed to discs that are more durable than the competition so they keep a proper flight path for a longer lifespan. Every mold is named after a tree as part of AGL's "Treeline" theme, and AGL's plastics use recycled and regrind material to minimize waste while flying just as well.

The Mold

Released in March 2020, the Cedar replaced AGL's very first disc, the now out-of-production Cypress. It's perfect for forehands or really cranking on a big anhyzer, because it can handle big arm speed and headwinds. It's long but predictable, and fans of the Cypress will find it fits right into that spot in the bag.

Stability

The Cedar is 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.
