The Dynamic Discs Renegade is a 11-speed understable distance driver. With published flight numbers of 11 / 5 / -1.5 / 2.5, it is most often described as suited for tailwind distance drives, hyzer-flip lines that stand up and glide.
Overview
The Dynamic Discs Renegade is an 11-speed understable distance driver rated 11/5/-1.5/2.5 in Dynamic Discs' own lineup listing.[1] The company describes it as "designed to suit players of all skill levels" — "a very fast, understable flyer for slower arm speed players," while stronger throwers use it for "super long tailwind shots, anhyzers, and long rollers."[2] The PDGA measured it at 21.2cm diameter, 1.7cm height, a 1.1cm rim depth and a 2.1cm rim, with a 176.0g maximum.[3] Disc Golf Puttheads characterises the same mold as offering "incredible glide and a controlled turn."[4]
Flight characteristics
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.
Recommended uses
The Renegade is a glide-first distance driver. Dynamic Discs points to tailwind drives, anhyzers and long rollers for power players, and to easy distance for slower arms.[2] Puttheads adds that intermediates get long S-curves or smooth turnovers from a flat or slightly hyzered release, that advanced players bag it for hyzer-flip bombs and long controllable turnovers, and that it will not absorb heavy torque the way an overstable driver does.[4] In the lightweight Lucid Air run, sold in 150–164g, it flips up from hyzer readily and finishes with a soft fade.[2][4]
Best for:
- Tailwind distance drives
- Hyzer-flip lines that stand up and glide
- Long anhyzer turnovers
- Extended rollers
- Easy distance for slower arm speeds
Community notes — how players actually use this disc
Plastics & variants
The Renegade is available in the following plastic blends from Dynamic Discs:[1]
Lucid, Lucid Air, Fuzion, BioFuzion
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 Renegade was PDGA-approved on 4 April 2013 under certification 13-28.[3] It has run through most of Dynamic Discs' plastic families over the following decade — PDGA's certification gallery alone holds BioFuzion, Fuzion, Fuzion Burst, Lucid MyDye and Lucid Air photos of the mold.[3] After a period out of production it returned in Lucid Air, Latitude 64's lightweight-plastic process that Dynamic Discs describes as making "it easier to throw far with less power."[2] Flight-number reporting is not perfectly consistent: Dynamic Discs' own lineup lists 11/5/-1.5/2.5, while Disc Golf Puttheads publishes 11/5/-2/2 in its write-up and 11/5/-2/3 in the accompanying specification table — Discpedia uses the manufacturer's figures.[1][4] No designer is publicly credited.
