Westside Discs Disc Golf VIP Pine Midrange 5/4/0/2 - Choose Exact Disc
SKU: DG-WD-VIP-PNE (REF1973-8)
Description
The Westside VIP Pine midrange is a midrange balancing stability and control, molded in VIP plastic. It's built for players who want a predictable, reliable flight, and it's at its best on staying on the fairway. Westside Discs is a Finnish brand known for mythology-inspired mold names, molded at Latitude 64's factory in Sweden as part of the Trilogy family alongside Latitude 64 and Dynamic Discs.
VIP Plastic
VIP is Westside's flagship premium plastic: translucent, extremely durable, and built to hold its flight through heavy use. It's comparable to Latitude 64's Opto and Dynamic Discs' Lucid, and in the same mold it tends to fly slightly more overstable than Tournament and hold that stability longer.
The Mold
The Pine is a perfect combination of stability and control. It fits between the Bard and Warship in Westside's lineup and is useful for all skill levels.
Stability
The Pine is stable. Stable discs fly straight for most of their flight and finish with a dependable fade. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it flies straight with a reliable fade to the left at the end. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, with the fade finishing to the right. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It suits players of every skill level who want a predictable flight.

FAQ
Is the Westside Pine good for beginners?
Yes. Westside says it's useful for all skill levels.
