Raketen

Distance Driver
The Raketen is a speed-15 Latitude 64 distance driver rated 15/4/-2/3, with a dimpled top. Its numbers pair high-speed turn with a solid fade, so it suits strong throwers looking for a turn-and-fade distance line. Players without the arm speed for a 15-speed rim, or anyone wanting a straight, easy driver, should look elsewhere. Latitude 64 calls Raketen (The Rocket) an extremely fast long-distance driver and says its hexagon pattern lowers air drag so it keeps its speed longer than a disc without one. When it launched in 2015, players on Disc Golf Course Review were sceptical of both the speed rating and the dimples. The PDGA approved the Raketen on 10 June 2015 (15-57). Latitude 64 took it out of production in 2019 to make room for new molds, and in 2026 brought it back as a limited special-edition run. On our comparison table its nearest matches are the Latitude 64 Knight and the Axiom Tantrum.

Dimensions

DiameterHow wide the disc is, edge to edge. Almost every disc is 21 to 22 cm.
21.1 cm
HeightHow tall the disc is lying flat. Putters are usually the tallest.
1.7 cm
Rim DepthHow deep the rim is underneath, where your fingers grip. Putters have the deepest rims.
1.1 cm
Rim ThicknessHow wide the rim is. Wider rims make faster discs that need a stronger throw.
2.4 cm
Rim Inside DiameterThe width of the flat middle, inside the rim. Bigger usually means a slower, easier disc.
16.3 cm
Rim Depth/Diameter RatioRim depth as a share of the disc's width. Higher means a deeper rim for its size.
5.2%
Rim ConfigurationA PDGA score for the shape of the edge. Low is sharp, like a driver. High is rounded, like a putter.

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.
