The Thought Space Athletics Ethereal Synapse is an overstable distance driver cast in Ethereal, TSA's hardest premium plastic, closer in stiffness to MVP's Plasma than to Aura. The Synapse is TSA's flagship pro level distance driver, built to hold up against real arm speed and a stiff headwind.

Flight Numbers: 12 / 5 / 0 / 3

Ethereal is stiffer than Aura or Ethos, with excellent grip and a shimmery, translucent look, and it takes real damage before losing its stability. It feels bigger in the hand than most 12 speed drivers, and it holds its overstable flight for a long time before any real beat in shows.

Thrown flat with power it flies a lot like a slightly beat in Destroyer, straight with a hint of high speed turn before a firm, controlled fade. A player without a big arm will not see much of the turn and will mostly feel the fade, so this disc rewards speed more than most fairway leaning drivers.

Built for an intermediate or advanced player who wants a reliable long bomber that will not flip over in the wind, and a strong pick for anyone replacing a beat in Destroyer that has gone too flippy. Best shot: a full power drive into a headwind where you need the fade to hold everything together.

Want the same numbers with more color options and a slightly softer feel? The Aura Synapse is a touch grippier out of the box. Prefer the signature Matt Bell run? The Matt Bell Synapse runs the same mold with his stamp. Shop the rest of our overstable distance drivers.
