The Discraft Hades in Z Swirl plastic is Paul McBeth's understable distance driver, a speed 12 disc built around glide rather than raw speed, now in a swirled colorway on the same Elite Z platform.

Flight Numbers: 12 / 6 / -3 / 2

Z Swirl blends Discraft's durable Elite Z with a marbled color run, so the finish is unique to every disc while the grip and long-term stability stay identical to standard Z Line. It resists wear well and does not need much time to fly true to its numbers.

On a flat release with real power it turns right out of the hand and holds that turn for most of the flight before a gentle fade brings it home, landing in the 400 foot range for players who can generate the speed. It is not the disc for a heavy headwind, where the extra turn works against you, but on calm days or with a tailwind it is one of the more reliable ways to add distance without giving up control at the landing spot. Newer players can also use it as an easy hyzer flip while their arm speed develops.

Want a more predictable fade at the finish? The 6x Claw ESP Hades carries the same numbers with a grippier feel. Need extra durability for wooded rounds? The Big Z Hades takes tree hits better. Browse the whole Hades collection.
