The Gladiator is an overstable speed-13 Latitude 64 distance driver rated 13/5/0/3.5. No turn and a strong fade make it a power driver for big hyzers, forehands and headwinds. Players with slower arms, or anyone wanting a straight or understable driver, should look elsewhere. Latitude 64 says its designer Tomas Ekström drew it up with David Feldberg, aiming for glide and distance with enough stability for professionals, and today pitches it to experienced throwers who want dependable distance. One player on Disc Golf Course Review described it as very overstable with little glide, and another described a recycled run as understable. The PDGA approved the Gladiator on 7 December 2016 (16-77), and it was released in February 2017. Latitude first rated it 13/5/0/3, while the 2018 flight-rating revision set the current fade. Latitude 64 retired the mold in January 2025 and brought it back for a limited special-edition run in September 2026. On our comparison table its nearest matches are the Latitude 64 Rive and the Westside Giant.

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.
