The X5 flips up fast, carries forward, and finishes gently — a go-to for hyzer-flips, long turnovers, low-ceiling tunnel shots, and controlled rollers. It's the most understable disc in the X-series, giving lower and intermediate arms real driver distance with a soft, workable finish. Note: some sites still list older ratings like 13 | 5 | -4 | 1; Prodigy's current product pages list 12 | 6 | -3 | 2, so that's the spec we use here. Why Throw the X5? 🪁 Easy Distance & Glide Strong high-speed turn plus a glide of 6 helps lower arm speeds access real driver carry. The X5 stays in the air and keeps moving instead of fading out early. 🔄 Hyzer-Flip Machine Start it on gentle hyzer and it flips up to flat, drifts, and finishes soft. One of the easiest ways to throw straight bombs and long, late-drifting lines. 🌲 Low-Ceiling & Tunnels The low-profile build performs well at low heights, making the X5 a strong pick for wooded tunnel shots and flat shaping under branches. ➡️ Long Turnovers The -3 turn holds anhyzer and turnover lines, drifting right (RHBH) without burning over too early. Great for shaping long right-moving shots. 🛞 Roller-Ready Once you learn the angle, the understable flight makes the X5 a reliable roller disc for long, controlled ground play around obstacles. 🎚️ The Softest X-Series Driver More understable than the X4 (-2), X3 (-1), and X2 (0), the X5 is the shaper and flip specialist of the family — the one you reach for when you want easy turn.

We list the X5 as 12 | 6 | -3 | 2 — high speed with big glide, strong high-speed turn, and a manageable fade for controlled shaping. Some sites still list older ratings like 13 | 5 | -4 | 1, but Prodigy's current product pages list 12 | 6 | -3 | 2, and that's what we use here. Who is the X5 best for? A wide range of arms. Lower arm speeds get easy distance and glide; intermediate players get a clean hyzer-flip driver; and power throwers use it for long turnovers and rollers. The understability does some of the work, so it doesn't demand elite power to perform. X5 vs. X4 — what's the difference? Both are speed-12 drivers with a glide of 6. The X5 (12/6/-3/2) is the more understable and flippier of the two — built for big hyzer-flips, turnovers, and rollers. The X4 (12/6/-2/2) is a touch more controlled and a little harder to turn over on power. Choose the X5 for easy turn, the X4 when you want slightly more hold. How should I throw the X5 for a clean hyzer-flip? Start it on a gentle hyzer and keep the nose down. Let it stand up to flat, drift, and finish softly. Add height for a longer turn and more glide. A smooth, nose-down release gets the best flip-to-flat flight. Will the X5 turn and burn if I throw it too hard? At high power with a flat or anhyzer release, the -3 turn can roll it over. The fix is to throw it on hyzer and let the disc do the work — a slight hyzer release with a nose-down angle produces the classic flip-to-flat bomb the X5 is built for. Which plastic should I choose? Choose 400 for everyday grip. Pick 500 for a firmer feel and long-term consistency. Go 750 for maximum rigidity and durability in heat. Choose 400G for slower break-in, or Prodigy Air when you want lighter weight and easier distance. document.querySelectorAll('.x5-faq-q').forEach(function(btn){ btn.addEventListener('click',function(){ var item=btn.parentElement; var isOpen=item.classList.contains('open'); document.querySelectorAll('.x5-faq-item').forEach(function(i){i.classList.remove('open');}); if(!isOpen){item.classList.add('open');} }); });
