The Spider Monkey is rated 6.5/5/-3/1. Three points of turn with a single point of fade suggest a deeply understable fairway flight, early right movement for a right-hand backhand and only a soft ending; TryDiscs files it as a control driver. It is not a wind fighter.

It joined Gorilla Disc Golf's primate-named lineup with PDGA approval on 3 June 2024, the fourth certification for the Texas brand registered as Gorilla Performance Discs. No listing for it was live on the brand's shop in the sources traced for this page as of August 2026.

TryDiscs records Clutch and Savage runs of the mold.
