The domey profile traps air for a 6 glide, so it flips up, carries down the fairway and holds a long turnover line without having to throw it as hard.

The -3 turn lets it turn over when thrown flat, or stand up from a hyzer angle into a flat, straight push. At the end of its flight, the soft 1 fade lets it finish gently rather than dumping hard. It's 21.1 cm across and 1.7 cm tall with a 1.1 cm rim depth and a 2.3 cm rim width, with a noticeable dome that adds a lot of glide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; margin-top: 15px; margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f2f2f2;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003eSpeed\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003eGlide\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003eTurn\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003eFade\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003e12\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003e6\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003e-3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Altitude delivers:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDome-Induced Glide:\u003c\/strong\u003e The domey profile keeps the disc in the air longer without having to throw it as hard.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEasy Hyzer Flips:\u003c\/strong\u003e It stands up from a hyzer release and turns a high-angle pull into a straight line down narrow fairways.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTailwind Distance:\u003c\/strong\u003e The understable design rides tailwinds really well, helping you push your distance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt excels at:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLong S-curve shots that track down the right side (for right-handed backhand throws) before coming back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMax-distance drives for intermediate and developing arm speeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControlled turnover lines where an overstable driver would fade out too early\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Marbled Slate Plastic Advantage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMarbled Slate is a new plastic from Meridian with a slightly grippier, gummier feel than their firmer premium blends.
