Discraft
SKU: DG-DC-SMGLO-THR (REF2439-3)
Description
The Discraft Mega-Glo Thrasher distance driver is a high-speed driver with an easy-going turn, molded in Mega-Glo plastic. It's built for lower arm speeds chasing maximum distance, and it's at its best on max-distance drives. If you're shopping for a dependable Thrasher for your bag, this Mega-Glo run is a great place to start.
Mega-Glo Plastic
Mega-Glo is Discraft's higher-luminosity glow plastic. Discraft says it shines brighter and longer than any glow disc they've made, so your Thrasher is ready for night rounds and glow leagues.
The Mold
The Thrasher is a high-speed driver with an easy-going turn for maximum distance at lower arm speeds.
Stability
The Thrasher 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 at the end. 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. Its understability helps players without huge arm speed, while big arms can use it for turnovers and rollers.
Flight Numbers

| Turn | -3 | Noticeable turn to the right (RHBH) at speed, great for turnovers and hyzer-flips. |
| Fade | 2 | A moderate, dependable fade at the end of the flight. |
