The "Siren" by Gateway Disc Sports is a speed 13 distance driver designed primarily for intermediate-level players. With flight ratings of 5 glide, -2 turn, and 1 fade, it falls into the understable category, making it ideal for controlled turnover shots on long throws. The bead on the inner edge of its wide rim provides a defined grip point, enhancing stability in the hand at high speeds. Beginners may find this disc challenging due to its wide rim and required arm speed—the Siren truly shines when thrown with sufficient power. In flight, the Siren exhibits dynamic characteristics: its -2 turn allows for smooth right-turning lines for RHBH throws, while the moderate 1 fade ensures a predictable finish. The high 5 glide extends hangtime, helping maximize distance. The disc responds sensitively to release angles and speed—too little power may cause it to dump early, while strong throws fully utilize its turn. In Evolution and Platinum plastics, it offers excellent grip and durability while maintaining consistent flight characteristics over time. The Siren works well for hyzer flips, holding height when thrown with the right angle before transitioning into a straight or slightly right-turning line. On anhyzer releases, the turn becomes more pronounced, enabling long turnover shots. Forehand throws demand precise technique to avoid overexaggerating the turn. Advanced players appreciate the Siren for flexible distance shots requiring controlled right turns or sweeping S-curves—though it requires experience handling wide-rimmed, high-speed discs.
