About the Tilt

Tilt: Discmania’s overstable fairway driver

The Discmania Tilt is about as overstable as a fairway driver gets. Six of fade against one glide means it does not fly so much as get thrown and drop — there is no float in it at all.

That makes it a pure utility disc. It is for forced hyzers, spike shots, headwind approaches and forehands that must not turn over. Nine speed with one glide is an unusual pairing: fast enough to get out there, but with nothing keeping it up, so the flight is short, steep and completely predictable. Nobody should bag the Tilt for distance. It goes left, it goes down, and that is the entire point of it.

Flies like…

How much the Tilt turns and fades depends on how hard it is thrown. These three shapes are drawn from the manufacturer’s numbers, not from measured throws.
