Kon Tiki | Infinite Discs · Discgolf-Dorado.com

The "Kon Tiki" by Infinite Discs is a distinctly understable midrange designed for turnover lines, hyzer flips, and rollers at short to medium distances. With a speed of 4 and glide of 5, it excels on technical wooded courses and approach shots where the disc needs to navigate around obstacles or through tight gaps. The bead on the inner rim ensures a defined grip, while the flat profile with a slightly domed top promotes quick releases. Popular plastic versions include I-Blend, Metal Flake C-Blend, and Signature Metal Flake C-Blend, offering varying levels of grip and durability. In flight, the strong understability is evident right after release: even at moderate arm speed, the disc turns sharply to the right (for right-handed backhand throws) without significant fade at the end. The -3 turn and 0 fade mean flat throws quickly transition into sustained turnover lines, while hyzer releases reliably flip up to straight paths. The high glide extends the flight phase, allowing for soft landings even with reduced power. These flight characteristics make the disc a dependable choice for controlled right turns and low tunnel shots. For beginners, the "Kon Tiki" provides an easy entry into advanced techniques like hyzer flips, as it responds to minimal power and forgives release angle mistakes. Advanced players use it strategically for extreme turnover lines, rollers, or as a utility disc in headwinds where more stable midranges would fade too early. It complements the bag as a counterbalance to overstable approaches, covering situations where maximum right turn with no fade is required.
