DESCRIPTION:
Westside Adder is a very overstable distance driver disc designed for powerful throws and windy conditions. Here's a closer look at its flight characteristics:

Speed: 13 (out of 14, one of the highest speed discs)

Glide: 5 (out of 7, a moderate glide disc)

Turn: 0 (very stable, will resist turning over)

Fade: 4 (has a strong fade at the end of its flight path)

The Adder excels in headwinds and situations where you need a disc to fight the wind and hold its line. Its high speed and fade make it suitable for experienced players with strong throws who can leverage its power.

Here are some additional points to consider about the Adder:

Due to its high stability, it might not be the best choice for beginners who are still developing their throwing power.

For those with slower arms, the Adder might be more suitable for utility shots requiring a dependable fade, rather than maximum distance.
