Paul McBeth Prototype Ares – The Zeus 2.0 has officially been renamed! A modified, slight more overstable version of the Zeus has been born and is now available to the masses after a teaser test flight drop at Disc East in 2026. Discraft says this about the mold: “What began as the highly talked-about Zeus 2.0, has officially evolved into Ares, a distance driver built for players who wanted more torque resistance from a Zeus without losing the feel and shot shaping capabilities. Early test flight runs quickly became a coveted release among both pros and everyday players. This disc is celebrated for the added stability, powerful end flight finish, and ability to push forward without drifting from its line. Now, that momentum becomes official. The Ares keeps the familiar hand feel and high-speed profile players loved in the Zeus, but brings a more overstable, torque-resistant flight built for bigger arms, tough conditions, and max distance shots. This is the kind of disc players reach for when they want to throw aggressively without sacrificing reliability. Whether launched on a flex line or driven flat with power, the Ares is built to push forward and finish with authority. While Zeus sparked the question, Ares answers it.”
