Diamond | Latitude 64 · Discgolf-Dorado.com

The "Diamond" from Latitude 64 is specifically designed for beginners and players with moderate arm speed. As a lightweight fairway driver with understable flight characteristics, it achieves noticeable distances beyond 90 meters even with minimal effort. The slim profile and thin build make it easier to grip for smaller hands, while the disc still delivers controllable flights on throws around 75 meters. Opto and Gold Line plastics provide sufficient durability for beginners, while Opto Air offers additional distance through reduced weight. With a turn of -3 and fade of 1, the "Diamond" develops a pronounced right turn on backhand throws, which kicks in quickly with low release height or slight anhyzer. The high glide rating of 6 noticeably extends flight time and compensates for lack of throwing power with extended float. On clean hyzer releases, the disc initially flies straight before gently drifting right and landing with mild fade. Advanced players use this characteristic for long turnover lines or controlled anhyzer shots, though they must account for its strong susceptibility to lateral drift in windy conditions. After several months of heavy use, the disc becomes noticeably more understable, so even moderate hyzer angles only delay the right turn. For beginners, the "Diamond" often serves as their first driver capable of consistently exceeding 90 meters while remaining forgiving. Players with refined technique use it strategically for tight tunnel shots requiring a right turn or when maximum glide is needed. On forehand throws, it proves less predictable due to its minimal fade offering little stabilization. Those seeking a reliable disc for calm conditions and technically clean backhand shots will find it a dependable tool for building distance.
