Takapu
The "Takapu" by RPM Discs is an overstable, beadless putter designed for both putting and controlled approach shots. With a mid-height profile and rounded edges, it offers a comfortable grip reminiscent of established models like the Luna, yet with its own distinct character. The beadless design ensures a clean release, making it a versatile choice for precise short-range throws. The disc showcases different nuances in its Magma Soft, RPM Glow, and Atomic plastics—Atomic provides straighter flight paths, while Cosmic delivers a more stable variant. In flight, the Takapu combines reliable straight-flight properties with a predictable hyzer finish. Its glide rating of 3 keeps the disc controlled in the air without unwanted drift. The overstable nature shines in its fade, reliably pulling left even with moderate power, resisting unwanted turn and maintaining consistent lines even in light wind. For approach shots, it offers enough torque resistance to handle forehand throws reliably, though the deeper rim may require adjustment for some forehand players. This disc caters to players of all skill levels seeking a dependable putter with a stable finish. Advanced and experienced throwers appreciate its versatility between putting and throwing, while beginners benefit from its forgiveness and straight lines. For hyzer putts, the Takapu delivers a confident finish into the chains, and on approach shots up to around 60 meters, it ensures controlled landings. Those looking for a beadless putter with reliable overstability will find the Takapu a solid alternative to classic models.
