The Doomsday Discs Apocalypse is a 13-speed very overstable distance driver. With published flight numbers of 13 / 1 / 1 / 6, it is most often described as suited for extreme overstable utility shots, forced fades and spike hyzers.

Overview

The Doomsday Discs Apocalypse is a 13/1/1/6 extremely overstable, high-speed utility driver. With a wide rim but almost no glide and an enormous fade, it "immediately dumps," behaving almost like a non-distance driver — a tool for instant, predictable fades rather than a max-distance bomber.[1]

Flight numbers describe the published behavior of the disc when thrown at its design speed. Real-world flight varies with plastic, weight, age, and thrower power. The community-averaged numbers above reflect crowd-sourced observations from real throws — typically slightly more understable than the manufacturer's published values, which is the most consistent pattern across nearly every commercial mold.

The Apocalypse is a specialty utility disc: forced spike hyzers, sharp forced fades around obstacles, overhand tomahawk and thumber throws, and drives into headwinds strong enough to knock down a normal overstable driver.[1] It demands real arm speed to do anything at all and is not a beginner disc. It plays much like a wide-rim, driver-speed version of an overstable approach disc such as the Zone.

Best for:

  • Extreme overstable utility shots
  • Forced fades and spike hyzers
  • Overhand throws (tomahawk / thumber)
  • Strong headwind drives

Plastics & variants

The Apocalypse is available in the following plastic blends from Doomsday Discs:

Shockwave, Survival

Plastic blend significantly affects flight character. Premium plastics like Champion, Z, or C-Line generally fly more overstable when fresh and hold their stability over time. Base plastics like DX, Pro, or Active beat in faster and become more understable workhorses with use.

History

The Apocalypse became a conversation-piece disc in the Doomsday lineup thanks to its almost comically high overstability.[1] Doomsday Discs is an apocalypse-themed brand carried largely through Infinite Discs; reviewer numbers (about 12.8/1/1.2/6.2) confirm the extreme factory rating.[1][2]
