Discraft Glide – Flight Chart
The Discraft Glide is a fairway driver known for its incredible float and effortless distance. With flight numbers of 6 | 5 | -3 | 1, this disc delivers easy-turning, high-glide flights that stay aloft with minimal fade. Perfect for beginners learning to shape shots or experienced players seeking controlled turnover lines, the Glide truly lives up to its name. Commonly available in Z Line and ESP plastics.
Beginner Flight Path
Beginners will find the Glide extremely forgiving—just a smooth throw results in long, straight flights with a gentle right turn (RHBH). Its high glide means extra distance without extra effort, making it one of the easiest drivers to learn with.
Intermediate Flight Path
Intermediate players can use the Glide for hyzer-flips, turnover lines, and shaping through tight fairways. Expect an understable release that holds its turn before finishing with a light fade. Great for tailwind drives and wooded holes.
Advanced Flight Path
Advanced throwers can finesse the Glide for long turnovers or rollers. At higher power, it turns easily and holds angle beautifully. Perfect for finesse control shots where placement matters more than distance.
Forehand Flight Path
For forehand players, the Glide works best for touch flicks or turnover forehands. It will flip up and ride right (RHFH) with ease but requires a clean release to avoid rolling over. Great for controlled approach flicks and shaping wooded lines.
