Flip | Hooligan Discs · Discgolf-Dorado.com

The "Flip" by Hooligan Discs fills the niche for highly understable throws in the midrange segment, making it especially suitable for beginners and players with moderate arm speed. With a speed of 5, it remains controllable, while the high glide rating of 6 ensures extended flight phases. Its uses range from straight approaches to long turnovers and roller setups, with the disc deliberately designed for maximum rightward turn on right-handed backhand throws. In flight, the -4 turn clearly defines its characteristics: the disc flips early to the right and maintains this line over long distances. The glide sustains the flight even with reduced throwing power, while the moderate fade of 1 at the end only brings a gentle correction to the left. This combination creates a pronounced S-curve with more powerful throws or a continuous rightward turn at controlled speeds. The disc's stability makes it susceptible to wind, excelling in tailwinds but becoming harder to control in headwinds. For beginners, the disc unlocks turnover lines effortlessly, as even moderate throws trigger the desired rightward drift. Advanced players use it strategically for hyzer flips, where a hyzer release transitions into a long, straight path with late fade, or for extreme anhyzer shots around obstacles. Rollers are also reliable thanks to its tendency to flip. Forehand throws benefit from its natural flex line, while backhand players can explore the full range from turnovers to S-curves.
