by
Discraft
SKU: DG-DC-TI-MALTA (REF1801-6)
Description
The Discraft Titanium Malta midrange is Paul McBeth's consistently stable midrange, molded in Titanium plastic. It's built for players who want Zone-like trust with more distance, and it's at its best on stable midrange drives and approaches. This listing is the Paul McBeth release of the Malta. Paul McBeth is a 6x PDGA World Champion.
Titanium Plastic
Titanium (Ti) is a stiff, metallic-looking blend with a subtle shimmer and slight surface texture. It provides unique grip and high-end durability, making it one of Discraft's most premium options for your Malta. The Malta is also available in ESP, Big Z, Z Fly Dye and Z Line.
The Mold
Paul's 4th disc in his line, the Malta offers consistently stable flights, with a feel and flight similar to the Zone but the trust and distance of a stronger Buzzz.
Stability
The Malta 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.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |

| Speed | 5 | Midrange speed that rewards smooth form over raw power. |
| Glide | 4 | Moderate glide that carries without sailing past the target. |
| Turn | 1 | Positive turn, so it resists turning over and starts fading early. |
| Fade | 3 | A strong, reliable fade to the left (RHBH) at the end of the flight. |
