Cypress | Above Ground Level · Discgolf-Dorado.com

The "Cypress" from Above Ground Level is a distance driver with a speed of 12, glide of 5, turn of -2, and fade of 2, establishing itself as a versatile all-rounder for medium to long distances on the market. With its overstable baseline characteristics, it handles both controlled fairway shots and powerful distance attempts with ease. The disc is primarily offered in Treeline Plastic, a material known for its grippy feel and durability. Despite the manufacturer's stated -2 turn, different production runs show noticeable variations: earlier runs tend to be flatter and more turn-resistant, while recent batches behave closer to -1/2, making the disc more stable than expected. The flight characteristics of the "Cypress" combine reliable overstability with controllable glide. On powerful throws, it exhibits moderate turn before settling into a predictable fade—ideal for precise lines between 100 and 360 meters. The disc holds up well in headwinds and forgives minor angle mistakes without flipping unpredictably. Its stability allows it to function as both a classic distance driver and a fast fairway driver, consistently delivering a dependable finish with moderate fade. The flat profile promotes clean releases and encourages consistent flight paths. For forehand throws, the "Cypress" is particularly well-suited: it offers touch control and remains stable even on powerful sidearm shots. Backhand players appreciate its versatility for hyzer lines and controlled anhyzer throws. This disc is aimed at intermediate and advanced players seeking a reliable driver for variable distances and wind conditions. Beginners may want to start with slower discs due to the required arm speed and overstable nature. For those looking for a dependable workhorse for distance and precision, the "Cypress" proves to be a sturdy companion.
