The Discmania Splice in Neo plastic is an extremely overstable control driver built for headwind shots and skip shots, and it flies beefier than its numbers suggest, closer to an 11x Firebird than a typical overstable fairway driver.

Flight Numbers: 9 / 3 / 0 / 4

Neo is Discmania's premium blend, a nice balance of flexy and stiff that feels different in the hand than their older plastics, and it holds its shape well against tree hits. It is flat with no dome at all, which is part of why it fights turnover so hard even at full power. It beats in slowly, so this stays a fade-heavy disc for a long time.

Thrown flat it dumps into fade fast, almost acting like a spike hyzer, and if you actually try a spike hyzer with anhyzer added it will drop nearly straight down like a meteor. That makes it less of a distance tool and more of a utility disc: tomahawks, thumbers, forehand rollers, and getting out of trouble around obstacles. It has serious flare skip potential too, jumping off the ground and adding real distance to a low, flat throw. Forehand players get a lot out of it for approach shots in the 150 to 225 foot range, holding rollers for days. This one has no place in a beginner's bag, but intermediate and advanced players use it anytime they need a guaranteed fade into wind.
