An understable, low-profile distance driver built for easy turn and huge glide. The X5 flips up fast, carries forward, and finishes gently - a go-to for hyzer-flips, long turnovers, low-ceiling tunnel shots, and controlled rollers. It's the most understable disc in the X-series, giving lower and intermediate arms real driver distance with a soft, workable finish.
Why Throw the X5?
🪁
Easy Distance & Glide
Strong high-speed turn plus a glide of 6 helps lower arm speeds access real driver carry. The X5 stays in the air and keeps moving instead of fading out early.
🔄
Hyzer-Flip Machine
Start it on gentle hyzer and it flips up to flat, drifts, and finishes soft. One of the easiest ways to throw straight bombs and long, late-drifting lines.
🌲
Low-Ceiling & Tunnels
The low-profile build performs well at low heights, making the X5 a strong pick for wooded tunnel shots and flat shaping under branches.
➡️
Long Turnovers
The -3 turn holds anhyzer and turnover lines, drifting right (RHBH) without burning over too early. Great for shaping long right-moving shots.
🛞
Roller-Ready
Once you learn the angle, the understable flight makes the X5 a reliable roller disc for long, controlled ground play around obstacles.

The Softest X-Series Driver
More understable than the X4 (-2), X3 (-1), and X2 (0), the X5 is the shaper and flip specialist of the family - the one you reach for when you want easy turn.
The X5 is rated 12 | 6 | -3 | 2 - high speed with big glide, strong high-speed turn, and a manageable fade for controlled shaping.
A wide range of arms. Lower arm speeds get easy distance and glide; intermediate players get a clean hyzer-flip driver; and power throwers use it for long turnovers and rollers. The understability does some of the work, so it doesn't demand elite power to perform.
Both are speed-12 drivers with a glide of 6. The X5 (12/6/-3/2) is the more understable and flippier of the two - built for big hyzer-flips, turnovers, and rollers. The X4 (12/6/-2/2) is a touch more controlled and a little harder to turn over on power. Choose the X5 for easy turn, the X4 when you want slightly more hold.
Start it on a gentle hyzer and keep the nose down. Let it stand up to flat, drift, and finish softly. Add height for a longer turn and more glide. A smooth, nose-down release gets the best flip-to-flat flight.
At high power with a flat or anhyzer release, the -3 turn can roll it over. The fix is to throw it on hyzer and let the disc do the work - a slight hyzer release with a nose-down angle produces the classic flip-to-flat bomb the X5 is built for.
Choose 400 for everyday grip. Pick 500 for a firmer feel and long-term consistency. Go 750 for maximum rigidity and durability in heat. Choose 400G for slower break-in, or Prodigy Air when you want lighter weight and easier distance.

I bought this to replace my lost Astronaut! This model is slightly more stable than my Astronaut was. I love the feel of 400 plastic. The plastic takes a beating and keeps its stability. Prodigy never fails to give me the feel I need for successful discing!
