Westside Boatman Flight Chart
The Westside Boatman is a reliable overstable distance driver featuring flight numbers of 11 | 5 | 0 | 2. Known for its smooth yet powerful flight, the Boatman is designed to deliver consistent fades without sacrificing glide. Built for players who need dependable control in windy conditions, it’s a workhorse for both forehand and backhand throws. Available in VIP, Tournament, and other premium plastics, this disc maintains its stability and grip even after heavy use.
Flight Path for Beginners
Beginners may find the Boatman slightly overstable, but it can serve as a great wind-fighting utility driver. Expect a strong fade at the end of flight and less glide at lower speeds. It’s best suited for players developing forehand technique or learning how to shape controlled hyzers.
Flight Chart for Intermediate Players
Intermediate throwers will enjoy the Boatman’s stability and control, particularly in crosswinds and headwinds. It offers a strong, reliable fade at the end of flight without turning over, making it perfect for predictable drives. Many reviewers note its comfortable rim and consistent release for both backhand and forehand throws.
Flight Numbers for Advanced and Professional Players
Advanced players appreciate the Boatman’s torque resistance and ability to handle full power drives. It’s an excellent choice for controlled distance shots where predictability is key. When thrown flat, it holds straight before finishing with a sharp, dependable fade — similar to a seasoned Destroyer but with slightly less speed and glide.
Forehand and Flex Flight Lines
The Boatman excels as a forehand driver, maintaining clean release angles and stable flights. Its overstability allows for confident flex shots and long skips. When thrown on anhyzer, it will reliably fight back to flat, making it a go-to for players who rely on forehand precision.
