Stability and resistance to the wind. This is what the Bard was created for and what it accomplishes. The Bard is a stable to overstable midrange disc that feels great in the hand. It has an easy release and a very predictable flight and fade. It stands up really well to headwinds and will hold that straight line even when your hair is blowing straight backwards.
Flight Ratings: Speed: 5, Glide: 4, Turn: 0, Fade: 3
About the plastic: VIP is a perfect combination of polymers to produce some of the most beautiful and durable discs in disc golf. Discs in this plastic are translucent, fairly soft & gummy and are extremely durable so they can take a good beating and maintain their original flight path.
