We've been working on something for those of you who love the Diamond but want to take the next step. Meet Amber. Amber is the newest addition to the Easy-to-Use lineup, and it's a distance driver built specifically for players throwing in the 60–100 meter range. Flight numbers are 11 | 6 | -3 | 2.
The Design Vision
The idea was straightforward: take the understability players love about the Diamond and combine it with the speed and glide of the Grace. The result is a disc that turns easily, holds a long sweeping line, and finishes with a gentle fade rather than diving hard. For players who have outgrown their Diamond but aren't ready for full-weight overstable drivers, Amber fits that gap cleanly.
Flight
The -3 turn is the defining number here. Amber wants to turn. Released flat or on a slight anhyzer, it will hold that line and glide forward with a smooth, gradual finish. For players with moderate arm speed, that understability works in your favor, the disc does the work of generating distance rather than demanding that you generate the power yourself. At 11 | 6 | -3 | 2, it sits comfortably in the distance driver category while still flying in a way that feels manageable. The high glide number means it stays in the air, which is exactly what you want when you're building distance.
The Disc in Your Hands
Amber will most commonly be offered in the 160–164g weight range. That lighter window keeps the flight characteristics working as intended, heavier throws can overpower the turn and lose the distance benefit this disc is designed to deliver.
The Stamp
For the stock stamp graphic we wanted an animal that felt fast. The cheetah made sense. There's something fitting about a disc built for effortless speed wearing the fastest land animal on the planet.
Who It's For
If you're throwing the Diamond and enjoying it, but you've been curious about stepping up in speed without jumping into something that demands a big arm, Amber is where we'd point you. It sits naturally in the Easy-to-Use progression and gives you a faster option that still flies the way beginners and intermediate players need it to.
