Axiom Tantrum
The Axiom Tantrum is a 14.5-speed overstable distance driver! For advanced players, this is an absolute bomber of a disc. You shouldn't have trouble throwing well into the 400s!
If you like to rip sidearms this is a great driver to try out. It has enough stability to be reliable, but the turn gives you big distance!
If you're a fan of Destroyers or something similar you should be trying out the Tantrum. You can throw it in much the same way and end up further down the fairway!
Here's what Axiom has to say about the Tantrum:
The Tantrum’s sweeping lines and hyzerflip potential allow power throwers to shape all kinds of shots. The Tantrum is best described as a beat-in Teleport, with huge glide and distance potential.
This video from TK Disc Golf is a great review of the Tantrum.
Flight Numbers
Speed: 14.5 | Glide: 5 | Turn: -1.5 | Fade: 3
Power throwers may find the Tantrum to actually be more understable than suggested. On the other hand, if you aren't throwing it with enough power then you'll start to see more fade and less turn.

Skill recommendations
Beginner: When starting out in this exciting new sport players often want to throw drivers in order to throw further. The truth is that while you are still developing your form and arm power you'll get better results throwing putters and mids.
Intermediate: It depends on your power levels, but if you're comfortable throwing something like a Destroyer then the Axiom Tantrum could be your ticket to more distance!
Advanced: This is a great disc to have if you're a powerful sidearm player! You can also use it for massive backhand distance drives.
