The Latitude 64 Fuse is a 5-speed understable midrange. With published flight numbers of 5 / 6 / -1 / 0, it is most often described as suited for dead-straight tunnel shots that hold the release angle, long anhyzer curves that never dump into a fade.

Overview

The Latitude 64 Fuse is a glide-heavy, slightly understable midrange rated 5/6/-1/0 — a rare flight profile with literally zero listed fade.[1] Latitude 64 calls it "the most versatile midrange driver we have ever made," with a stable, predictable flight up to around 300 ft that will hold long anhyzer curves with minimal fade at the end.[1] Reviewers consistently single out its glide as exceptional for a midrange, letting it carry farther than its speed suggests.[3][4]

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 Fuse excels wherever the disc must finish on the line it was thrown: wooded tunnel shots, gentle hyzer-flips to flat, and long turnovers that stay right for a right-handed backhand.[1][3] Its glide rewards smooth, low-power throws, which makes it a favorite touch disc and a forgiving first midrange, while bigger arms use it for shaping anhyzer lines in calm conditions.[1][4] It is not the disc for headwinds — the -1 turn and 0 fade will drift in strong wind.[3]

Best for:

  • Dead-straight tunnel shots that hold the release angle
  • Long anhyzer curves that never dump into a fade
  • Touch approaches that ride glide instead of power
  • First midrange for developing players

Plastics & variants

The Fuse is available in the following plastic blends from Latitude 64:[1]

Opto, Gold, BioGold, Gold-Ice, Opto Air, Zero Gravity

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 Fuse was PDGA-approved on April 4, 2010, certification number 10-04, and has stayed in the Swedish manufacturer's core midrange lineup ever since.[2] It was co-designed with Latitude 64 pro Jesper Lundmark, the same collaboration that produced the Pure putter.[1] Over fifteen-plus years it has been produced in most of Latitude 64's plastic lines, including Opto, Gold, BioGold, Gold-Ice, lightweight Opto Air, and the floating Zero Gravity blend, plus team-series editions for veteran pro JohnE McCray.[1] PDGA specs list a 21.9 cm diameter and 181.8 g maximum weight.[2]
