The Nimbus is a midrange rated 5/5/0/1.5. Zero turn with a light fade suggests a straight, slightly stable flight that finishes gently left for a right-hand backhand. It is not a disc for turnover lines or a hard finish. Elevation Disc Golf calls it a workhorse midrange and describes its flight as slightly overstable and forward-pushing, and mold designer Austin Minnocci calls it the brand's first true midrange, combining qualities of the Arowana and the Interceptor. The PDGA first approved the Nimbus on 11 September 2023 (23-222) and approved a retooled version on 25 March 2024 (24-51); the measurements listed here match the retooled certificate. Elevation pitches its flexible rubber blends for forgiving ground play. TryDiscs lists it in ecoFIRM, ecoFLEX and glO-G.

Reviews

5 reviews from 3 stores

The Elevation Disc Golf Nimbus has only 5 reviews so far, so one opinion can swing the picture. That's why there's no star average yet.

Try Discs adds up reviews from six disc golf stores, so you see what players think across stores, not just at one shop. Reviews are great for spotting proven, popular discs. Take the details with a grain of salt, though: runs, plastics and skill level all change how a disc flies, so your experience may vary.
