Discs that fly like the Discraft Crank
The Crank is a straight driver (13/5/-2/2). A wide-rim max-distance driver that most players find roughly stable, with less turn and a bit more fade than the printed -2/2. Base plastics like Pro-D and FLX blends lean understable; Titanium leans more stable. Holds its line reasonably well in wind.
These are the most widely thrown discs that fly closest to it, ranked by flight numbers, real-world stability and what players use them for. Highlighted numbers differ from the Crank.
