Discraft - Raptor - Big Z

 Raptor - Big Z [9 | 4 | 0 | 3]

Master the wind with the Discraft Big Z Raptor, a tour-level overstable fairway driver built for power and precision. Designed in collaboration with Team Discraft's Paul Ulibarri, the Raptor has quickly become a staple for players who need absolute confidence in their equipment. Its flat top profile and heavy low-speed fade make it a premier choice for "slicing" through headwinds without the fear of the disc turning over.

The Raptor is specifically engineered for reliability. Whether you are executing a powerful hyzer backhand or a torque-heavy sidearm, this disc delivers a predictable, dumping finish. While it is rated as a speed 9, its stability allows it to fill the gap between a fairway driver and a maximum distance driver, offering controlled distance for advanced arms and a "utility" overstable flight for those with less power.

Plastic Feel: Big Z is a premium, durable blend that combines the toughness of standard Z Line with a touch of extra flexibility and a pearly, opaque finish. It is known for offering a better grip in wet conditions compared to stock Z plastic and typically features bold, oversized character artwork.

Shot Type Strengths:

• Wind-Fighting Drives: Holds its flight path in aggressive headwinds, finishing with a strong, reliable hook.

• Power Forehands: The flat flight plate and shallow rim depth provide a clean release for sidearm players, masking minor form errors with its high stability.

• Skip Shots: The firm rim and overstable finish allow for predictable ground-play, perfect for "flaring" around obstacles toward the basket.

Gravity Personality: Trustworthy overstability with a bold, pearly flair.
