Celebrating the Classics, One Release at a Time.
At Discraft, we’ve built a lineup that continues to push the boundaries of design, technology, and performance. But every so often, the past calls us back—reminding us of discs that defined eras, started careers, and built loyal followings. That’s why we created Classic Reissue: a way to bring back fan-favorite releases that stood the test of time, giving today’s players a chance to experience discs that shaped the game.
The Classic Reissue line isn’t just about nostalgia—it’s about honoring the history of disc golf while providing fresh opportunities for players to bag discs that may not have been available for years. Our first reissue, the ESP FLX Drone, reminded players just how valuable a timeless disc can be. Now, we’re expanding the program with a mold that’s been requested time and again: the Glide.
The Return of the Glide

The Glide is exactly what its name suggests—effortless, straight-line flight with minimal effort. Its ability to hang in the air makes it one of the easiest discs to throw, especially for newer players or those with slower arm speeds.
The Z Glide delivers:
• Distance with ease – It covers ground without demanding elite-level power.
• Control for all skill levels – Great for carving through wooded fairways, shaping turnover shots, or hitting tight gaps.
• Beginner-friendly performance – A go-to disc for players building confidence in their distance game.
This reissue stays true to the classic feel and flight, while giving players the durable, trusted performance of Z plastic.
Why Classic Reissue Matters
Bringing back discs like the Glide isn’t just about honoring requests—it’s about recognizing the players who’ve supported us from the very beginning, amplifying their voices, and uncovering which classics deserve another chance to shine. The Classic Reissue program will continue to highlight molds that shaped disc golf’s past, and your feedback will help decide what’s next.
