Missilen | Latitude 64 · Discgolf-Dorado.com

The "Missilen" from Latitude 64 is a high-speed distance driver designed for experienced throwers with high arm speed. With a speed rating of 15, it ranks among the fastest discs on the market and demands proper throwing technique. The extremely wide rim and flat profile define its handling. Available in the popular Opto and Gold Line plastics, it proves exceptionally durable for demanding distance shots. For beginners and players with moderate arm speed, the Missilen remains a challenge, only revealing its full potential with powerful throws. In flight, it showcases its overstable characteristics with a turn of -0.5 and fade of 4.5. The disc reliably holds its line even in windy conditions and exhibits noticeably less glide compared to other distance drivers. This low glide rating of 3 makes it predictable but demands extra power for maximum distance. When compared directly, it behaves less extremely overstable than models like the Giant or Ape, aligning more closely with a Star Boss. Its flight path remains controlled and stable without veering unpredictably left. With sufficient arm speed, the Missilen achieves impressive distances with a predictable fade at the end. For advanced to professional throwers, the Missilen serves as a utility driver for headwind situations and maximum-distance throws on open fairways. Backhand throws benefit from its stability during powerful launches, while forehand throws allow precise hyzer lines. Those lacking the necessary arm speed will see the disc fade early and fail to achieve optimal results. As a specialized distance driver, it requires technical skill and physical capability but rewards with exceptional control at high speeds.
