Lobster | Mint Discs · Discgolf-Dorado.com

The "Lobster" from Mint Discs fills the role of a versatile understable midrange for controlled turnovers and long hyzer flips. With a speed of 5 and glide of 5, it reaches distances beyond 90 meters without becoming unpredictable—a trait that sets it apart from extremely flippy alternatives like the Discraft Sol. The Apex plastic offers a smooth surface with excellent durability, while Sublime and Nocturnal are also popular choices. This disc works equally well on open fairways and technical wooded gaps where precise curved lines are needed. In flight, the "Lobster" features a -3 turn, producing a noticeable right drift for right-handed backhand throws without becoming uncontrollable. The fade of 1 ensures a gentle finish, keeping hyzer flips on long, straight lines rather than fully flipping over. When released flat or with slight anhyzer, it holds the chosen angle throughout the flight, excelling especially at turnover shots with a consistent radius. Players with arm speeds around 110 meters max distance will find a reliable balance between turn and control—the disc forgives moderate power fluctuations without immediately diving into the ground. For beginners, the "Lobster" is an ideal choice for learning turnover techniques, as it drifts right even with lower power. Advanced players use it strategically for long anhyzer lines or hyzer flips that stretch beyond 90 meters while staying stable on the intended flight path. For forehand throws, it remains predictable as long as the release is clean—slight hyzer angles prevent early turnovers. If you're looking for an understable midrange that’s neither too tame nor too aggressive, the "Lobster" is a versatile tool for a wide range of playing situations.
