Atlantis | Alfa Discs · Discgolf-Dorado.com

# Product Description The "Atlantis" by Alfa Discs combines Speed 9 with pronounced understability, making it ideal for technical fairway lines in the woods and controlled turnover shots. With a Turn of -4 and a moderate Fade of 1, it covers situations where classic fairway drivers fade too early or create excessive ground play. The high Glide of 6 noticeably extends flight time, making the disc attractive for uphill shots and long anhyzer lines. The Chrome plastic offers a slightly chalky feel, ensuring secure grip even in wet conditions. In flight, the "Atlantis" exhibits a strong flip to turnover on a hyzer release, maintaining this turn throughout its flight path. The combination of high speed and low fade allows for steep hyzer-flip lines, where the disc drifts right after standing up and lands flat. Forehand players benefit from the understability, especially on tight corridors where traditional drivers would hook left too aggressively. Backhand throws with controlled speed keep the disc straighter longer before the turnover kicks in. The gentle fade prevents skip-outs and ensures precise landings near the basket. For beginners, the "Atlantis" provides access to longer distances without requiring extreme arm speed, while advanced players can use it strategically for technical shots with minimal fade. Steep hyzer-flip shots on wooded fairways are reliable, as the disc doesn’t turn uncontrollably after standing up. Uphill throws benefit from the strong glide, extending flight time and compensating for height loss. The "Atlantis" fills the niche between straight midranges and fast distance drivers for players who prefer turnover lines without aggressive fade.
