   One of the furthest flying and controllable understable discs out. Great for low ceiling as well as turn-over/roller shots. Not the fastest Long Range Driver but reliable. Was our “go-to” understable driver for a long time (until the Lat.64 vision and river came out) Many pro’s use this disc and below are a few quotes from them about it–

   I use this disc for very accurate drives. Most of them are from left to right as the XL is an understable disc, but it’s very, very accurate and doesn’t fly as fast as some other discs, which makes it easier to control.
   -Nathan Doss, 2005 and 2007 World Champion

   “This is a great disc to learn with. The XL is one of the farthest flying discs I’ve ever thrown and it holds an almost perfect line on big throws. I also use it for rollers, turnover forehand/backhand shots, and when in trouble I use it for a flick roller. It is simply a far-flying, easy to control disc.”
   -Kim Scott-Wood

   “This is an old favorite and I still consider it to be my most controllable driver. With it’s comfortable rim and deliberate flight, this disc just doesn’t allow you to make big mistakes. A great driver for those just getting into the game.”
   -Scott Papa

   “The XL is my extra long range roller. Disc feels so comfortable in my hand, I’ll throw it for a touch turnover at around 330 feet, or a smooth, low line shot. Super predictable, just like we’ve come to expect from Discraft.”
   -Gregg Barsby
