DESCRIPTION:
Discraft Crank is a high-speed distance driver designed for experienced players seeking maximum distance with surprising control. Here's a breakdown of what makes the Crank stand out:
Speed (12): This disc sits at the top of the speed spectrum, promising exceptional distance potential for powerful throws.
Turn (0): Neutral - A zero turn rating signifies the Crank will resist turning over during the initial flight phase, even for forceful throws. This allows for a straighter flight path compared to other high-speed drivers.
Fade (1.3): Slight Fade - A low fade rating means the disc will have a minimal left turn (for right-handed backhand throws) at the end of its flight path, providing a predictable and controllable finish.
Glide (4): Good Glide - The Crank maintains good airborne time despite its high speed, extending its distance potential without sacrificing control.
Stability (1.3): Overstable with Control - The combination of minimal turn and a slight fade creates a disc that's slightly overstable. This resists turnovers for powerful throws but maintains enough control to avoid excessive hooking at the end of the flight.
Plastics: The Crank comes in a variety of Discraft plastics, each offering variations in feel and durability. Popular options include Z Line (grippy and durable), ESP (flexible and grippy), and Elite X (super grippy and slightly more overstable).
Discraft Crank is a dream disc for players with strong arms who want to maximize distance without sacrificing control. Its high speed and resistance to turn make it ideal for powerful throws on open fairways and achieving maximum distance on long drives. The variety of plastics allows you to find the perfect balance of grip and stability for your throwing style.
