Amphibian
The "Amphibian" by Gateway Disc Sports is an understable distance driver designed for long throws with a pronounced flight curve. With a speed of 10, it achieves high velocities, while the turn rating of -4 creates a strong rightward fade for right-handed backhand throws. As an understable distance driver, it's ideal for players seeking maximum distance through controlled turnover flights without requiring extreme arm speed. The flight begins with a powerful glide rating of 6, keeping the disc airborne for extended periods. The extreme -4 turn ensures a sharp rightward turn during flight, even at moderate arm speeds. A fade of 2 brings a noticeable leftward finish, pulling the disc out of its turnover path for a predictable landing. This combination of strong turn and moderate fade produces a signature S-curve at higher throwing power. For beginners at skill level 1, the Amphibian delivers straight flights with a slight right turn, as lower arm speed doesn't fully activate the turn. Advanced players at skill level 3 use it for long turnover lines and controlled anhyzer shots that drift right over great distances. In tailwinds, the rightward curve becomes more pronounced, while forehand throws result in stable anhyzer flights with a reliable finish. The Amphibian excels on open fairways where its S-curve can be fully utilized.
