The Infinite Discs Anubis is a 5-speed stable midrange. With published flight numbers of 5 / 5 / 0 / 0, it is most often described as suited for straight tunnel shots through tight gaps, precision upshots from 150 to 250 feet.

Overview

The Infinite Discs Anubis is a neutral, beadless all-purpose midrange on a wide 21.8cm mold with a 2.1cm height and a 1.4cm rim.[1] Infinite’s own copy calls it “a straight-flying, all-purpose, precision mid-range disc that will fit into the bags of both novice and professional players,” one that “will help players to fine-tune their throwing skills by flying precisely in accordance with the release from the hand.”[4] Its published rating of 5/5/0/0 is unusual in carrying no fade at all, and every source checked agrees on those four numbers.[4] The PDGA certifies it to a 180.9g maximum.[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 Anubis is a line-holding midrange rather than a shot-shaper. Infinite says “you can direct the Anubis with the angle of release and throwing speed to follow about any path you put it on,” and recommends “lighter weights for beginners or for young players, or in the heavier, max weight for experience players who want an obedient mid-range for precision approaches.”[2] Reviewers note it will show turn if overpowered, so it rewards controlled arm speed on straight tunnel shots, gentle hyzer-flips and stand-still upshots.[4]

Best for:

  • Straight tunnel shots through tight gaps
  • Precision upshots from 150 to 250 feet
  • Gentle hyzer-flips that hold flat
  • Controlled midrange drives for moderate arm speeds

Plastics & variants

The Anubis is available in the following plastic blends from Infinite Discs:[2]

I-Blend, D-Blend, C-Blend, S-Blend, Halo S-Blend, Glow C-Blend, Concrete

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 Anubis was PDGA-approved on 21 June 2018 under certification 18-51 and released at retail on 3 August 2018 alongside the Infinite Slab.[1][2] Infinite launched it in I-Blend, describing a disc “designed to be a user-friendly mid-range disc that is flexible and easy to control for players at any level.”[2] Infinite does not mold its own plastic: founder Todd Durrant has stated that “the partnership for our Infinite Discs brand is with Innova. It is planned to stay that way,” and that “the Infinite Discs molds are often variants and reconfigurations of existing Innova molds.”[5] Disc Golf Puttheads identifies the Anubis specifically as a return of a retired Innova mold, describing it as “a reintroduction of the Coyote mold we both used for a few years a while back.”[4] Infinite’s own run tracker documents at least eighteen production runs between 2018 and March 2023 across I-Blend, D-Blend, C-Blend, glow and Halo variants.[3] Stability labels vary between Infinite’s own properties and its retailers: the Infinite Discs Line mold page calls it a “neutral-slightly understable midrange,” while Puttheads files it as stable.[3][4] Infinite publishes no weight range, so the 170–180g figure above is derived from retail listings. That mold page also calls the Anubis “a favorite of professional disc golfer Maria Oliva,” who has signature runs of it, though no independent in-the-bag listing corroborates the claim.[3] No designer is credited.
