Latitude 64 Gold Orbit Diamond

The Latitude 64 Gold Orbit Diamond is the driver I hand to a brand new player before anything else. It's built for slower arm speeds, understable enough that a weak throw still turns into a straight, satisfying flight instead of an early fade into the rough. Flight Numbers: 8 / 6 / -3 / 1 Gold Orbit is Latitude 64's two color swirl process over their Gold Line plastic, grippy and forgiving with enough durability to survive a beginner's early mishits. It comes in lighter weights too, which helps a slower arm get the disc up to flying speed without extra strength. Powered down it flies close to dead straight, which is the whole point for someone just learning to release cleanly. Given a steep hyzer flip and enough height, it turns into a genuine turnover disc, flipping to flat, holding a hard turn, and landing far right without much fade at all, a trick advanced players use for turnovers around obstacles. It does need real air under a hyzer release though, thrown flat and low it burns over hard, so height matters more than power here. Growing past the easy to use line? The Gold Orbit Sapphire is the natural next step up in speed. Want an Innova comparison with similar turnover? The Innova Halo Star Roadrunner shares that same easy turn.
