The Storm is a discontinued Discraft midrange-class disc certified on May 29, 2002 (PDGA cert 02-07), sharing its certification day with the Predator and Wildcat in the company's busy early-2000s stretch. Its PDGA record lists standard midrange dimensions, a 21.4-centimeter diameter and 177.6-gram maximum.

It arrived months before the Wasp and over a year before the Buzzz reshaped the mid row, never carved out a lasting slot of its own, and was retired. It carries no published flight numbers here; surviving copies circulate among collectors of the era.
