Cruiser

DISCONTINUED
Control Driver
The Cruiser is a discontinued driver-class disc certified in 1987 (PDGA cert 87-07), from Discraft's first decade of golf molds. Its PDGA record lists a 21.4-centimeter diameter and 177.6-gram maximum, golf-standard dimensions that much of the late-80s catalog shared. The name spawned relatives: a Windstar with matching dimensions was certified in 1989, alongside a combined Cruiser-Windstar certification the same year. All of them left the lineup long ago, and the Cruiser carries no published flight numbers here; copies survive as vintage collector pieces.
