Discraft Disc Golf Z Line Flick Distance Driver 12/3/1/5 - Choose Exact Disc
Description
The Discraft Z Line Flick distance driver is a meathook driver for extreme wind, molded in Z Line plastic. It's built for power forehand throwers and anyone facing extreme wind, and it's at its best on powerful forehands and hyzer flex approaches. If you're shopping for a dependable Flick 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 Flick will fly the same way for a long time.
The Mold
For extreme wind and maximum overstability, grab the meathook-flying Flick. It's ideal for powerful forehand shots or precision hyzer flex approaches.
Stability
The Flick 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 for intermediate to advanced players with good arm speed.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 12 | Very high speed that needs strong arm speed to fly as rated. |
| Glide | 3 | Moderate glide that carries without sailing past the target. |
| Turn | 1 | Positive turn, so it resists turning over and starts fading early. |
| Fade | 5 | A strong, reliable fade to the left (RHBH) at the end of the flight. |
