Flight Numbers & Performance
The Sled operates on highly workable flight numbers of Speed: 3, Glide: 2, Turn: -1, and Fade: 2. The magic of this disc lies in its exceptionally low glide rating, which forces it to drop out of the air quickly and predictably. It's 21.6 cm across and 1.7 cm tall with a 1.2 cm rim width and a 1.3 cm rim depth, and it was PDGA approved on January 19, 2026.

The CryZtal FLX Sled delivers:
- The Groove-Top Grip: The concave puddle groove on the top shoulder gives your thumb a secure, locked-in resting place, maximizing your leverage for clean releases on every angle.
- Straight-to-Stable Flight: Unlike heavily overstable approach discs, the Sled pushes straight with a subtle high-speed flip before finishing with a gentle, dependable fade.
- Unmatched Distance Control: The ultra-low glide strictly caps your raw distance, drastically reducing the chances of accidentally sailing long on a fast or dangerous green.
It excels at:
- Straight upshots that need to stop next to the basket
- Touch forehands and flicks around the green
- Threading tight wooded gaps on approach
- Fast or dangerous greens where you can't afford to sail long
The CryZtal FLX Plastic Advantage
Discraft's CryZtal FLX plastic is heavily sought after for approach discs. It combines the jaw-dropping, glass-like transparency of standard CryZtal with a highly flexible, gummy feel. This makes the disc incredibly grippy in wet or cold weather and allows the flight plate to absorb the energy of ground impacts. Instead of flaring up and skipping away, the CryZtal FLX Sled hits the ground, compresses, and stops close to where you threw it.
How the Sled Fits in the Discraft Lineup
- Vs the Z Line Sled: Same mold and flight numbers. The highly translucent, ultra-durable flagship stock blend that provides a firm grip and a clean release.
- Vs the ESP Sled: Same mold and flight numbers. Discraft's grippy, durable premium plastic in solid colors. It's just as tough as Z Line but grips better, especially in cold or damp weather.
- Vs the Mega Glo Sled: Same mold and flight numbers. Molded in premium glow-in-the-dark plastic for high visibility during night rounds.
- Vs the Special Blend Sled: Same mold and flight numbers. A celebratory Special Blend plastic with visual fusions like Ti Big Z, for premium looks and great durability.
- Vs the Kitchen Sink Ultra-Sled: Same flight numbers with flight rings on top. The Sled with UltraStar-style flight rings engraved on top, in a Kitchen Sink mix of Discraft plastics where no two discs look or feel quite the same.
- Vs the Discraft Luna: The Luna (3 | 3 | 0 | 3) is Discraft's go-to putter. The Sled has the same kind of rounded, comfortable wing underneath, but adds the rolled thumbtrack and less glide, so it's built more for approaches than putting.
- Vs the Discraft Zone: The Zone (4 | 3 | 0 | 3) is Discraft's overstable approach disc. It has a little more glide and a lot more fade, so it's perfect for wind and hard forehands. The Sled excels in straight upshots that drop soft.
- Vs the Kastaplast Berg: The Sled has a Berg-like ridged top with a Luna-style rim underneath. It's faster and more stable than the Berg (1 | 1 | 0 | 2), so it holds a line better on longer approaches.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Discraft CryZtal FLX Sled
What is the Sled good for?
The Sled is a straight-to-stable approach disc. It is designed for controlled placement shots, delicate touch forehands, and accurate backhand upshots where you need the disc to drop quickly and not glide past the basket.
How does CryZtal FLX plastic feel?
It is fantastic for approach discs! CryZtal FLX is see-through like glass, but it has a very gummy, flexible feel in the hand. You can actually bend the flight plate with your thumb. This flexibility helps the disc absorb impact on the green, heavily reducing unwanted skips and roll-aways.
