Streamline Disc Golf Neutron Ascend Fairway Driver 6/5/-3/0.5 - Choose Exact Disc
SKU: DG-STR-N-ASC (REF1147-70)
Description
The Streamline Neutron Ascend fairway driver is Streamline's truly understable fairway driver, molded in Neutron plastic. It's built for players of all skill levels, from beginners learning the game to power players carving lines, and it's at its best on easy straight flights, hyzer-flips, and massive turnovers. If you're shopping for a dependable Ascend for your bag, this Neutron run is a great place to start.
Neutron Plastic
Neutron is the flagship plastic of the MVP family and the most popular blend Streamline uses. It's opaque and grippy with a premium look and feel, and it comes in the widest selection of bright colors, which makes your Ascend easy to find in any terrain. Neutron shares the great durability of Proton, so it holds its flight for a long time. Because Streamline discs are solo-mold, the whole disc is one uniform piece of Neutron, finished with Streamline's clean edges and triple-foil stamps.
The Mold
The Ascend is a 21.2 cm solo-mold fairway driver with a 16 mm rim. Players learning the game will love the Ascend's easily attainable straight flights and, thanks to its glide, surprising distance for a fairway driver. Experienced and higher-power players will appreciate its controllable turn, which lets them carve lines from hyzer angles and launch massive turnovers.
Stability
The Ascend 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 little fade at the end, so it can finish straight or keep drifting right. 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 | 6 | Fairway speed, manageable for most arms. |
| Glide | 5 | Lots of glide to help it stay in the air and add distance. |
| Turn | -3 | Noticeable turn to the right (RHBH) at speed, great for turnovers and hyzer-flips. |
| Fade | 0.5 | Very little fade, so it finishes nearly straight. |
