The Ballista is a speed-14 Latitude 64 distance driver rated 14/5/-1/3, with some high-speed turn and a solid fade. It suits players who can generate real speed and want a long turn-and-fade line without an extremely stable 14-speed rim. Slower arms are likely to see mostly fade, and players who need a headwind driver should look elsewhere. Latitude 64 pitches it as a 14-speed driver for a wider range of players than a typical overstable pro driver, and says it behaves as an overstable disc for beginners and a slightly understable one for experienced players. Throwers on Disc Golf Course Review in 2020 described a very fast, flippy distance driver that needs some hyzer from big arms. The PDGA approved the Ballista on 19 December 2014 (14-93). Latitude first released it in the first half of 2015 as a Snow Line fundraiser disc for that year's Scandinavian Open. On our comparison table its nearest matches are the Innova Colossus and the Latitude 64 Wild.

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.
