Discmania FD: A Must Have Fairway Driver

​ ​The Discmania FD, also known as the Fairway Driver, is highly regarded as one of the top choices for both new players and experienced disc golfers. Its defining features include a sleek, small rim, a straight flight right out of the box, and impressive glide that lasts. These qualities make it a comfortable and reliable choice, with the ability to achieve impressive distances even at slower speeds. For those unfamiliar with the FD or those who can’t get enough of its smooth throws, we have gathered reviews and impressive showcases of the disc. It has also gained the trust of professional players, with several top performers including it in their bags and using it in elite level events such as the Disc Golf Pro Tour. One such player is Ella Hansen, currently ranked as the number 6 female professional on the tour, who has been a fan of the FD since joining Team Discmania. In fact, she loves it so much that she has made it her Signature Series disc – The Show Stopper! Her first version featured Swirl S-Line plastic, which could withstand more power and speed, and now her Show Stopper 2 is available in beautiful Color Glow C-Line Horizon plastic worldwide. As Ella herself says, “Everybody should have an FD in their bag.” For those looking to add the FD to their collection, it is available in a variety of plastics, each offering slight variations in flight shapes and feel.
