Select Your Disc

RPM says this about the Takapu: "The Tākapu or Gannet in English is a stable putt and approach disc in the RPM range, in the wild it has bold colours, rakish lines and a wing span of almost two metres. Gannets are not only among the most elegant of birds but are also masters of the wind and attack their prey with the upmost precision. The RPM Tākapu has a slow and very stable flight with a gentle late fade. The bead-less rim and rounded nose fits perfectly into your hand and helps eliminate wobble. When thrown with high power they will hold their line like a laser beam."

Phases of Flight

Low-Speed Fade
As the disc slows and spin decreases, the disc pulls out of turn and begins to hook at the end of flight
High-Speed Turn
The aerodynamic profile turns the disc with the direction of spin during the high-speed phase of flight
Forward Push
The initial thrust forward during the high-speed phase of flight
