Kiwi
The "Kiwi" from RPM Discs is a speed 10 distance driver known for its pronounced overstability, primarily serving as a utility disc for specialized situations. With a glide of 4, turn of 0, and fade of 3, it straddles the line between fairway and distance drivers, making it ideal for shots requiring reliable fade and controlled landings. Particularly in Cosmic and Atomic plastics, the "Kiwi" excels in skip shots and headwind conditions where other discs might drift unpredictably. However, it demands significant arm speed to unlock its full potential. In flight, the "Kiwi" exhibits unusually overstable behavior, sometimes exceeding manufacturer ratings. Its path remains predictable with minimal turn, finishing with a strong yet smooth fade. The solid glide ensures the disc doesn't drop abruptly but maintains control along its line. Some runs, however, display more understable tendencies with extra turn—plastic variations and individual production batches can differ noticeably. When thrown flat with sufficient power, the "Kiwi" holds its line, while weaker throws transition quickly into fade. Advanced players will appreciate the "Kiwi" as a reliable utility option for extreme hyzer lines, forced anhyzer shots with guaranteed fade-out, and strong headwind situations. It performs well for both forehand and backhand throws but requires power in either case. Beginners and players with moderate arm speed may struggle—this disc demands experience and strength to produce more than just fade-heavy shots. As a crossover between fairway and distance drivers, it fills a niche for players seeking extreme stability at higher speeds.
