The Sapphire is a lightweight Latitude 64 distance driver rated 10/6/-2/1.5. High glide and plenty of turn with a modest fade make it a distance driver for newer players and slower arms. Strong throwers looking for a stable driver, or anyone who needs a disc for wind, should look elsewhere. Latitude 64 introduced it as the first distance driver in its Easy-to-Use line: light, fast and easy to grip and control. In a February 2020 blog post Tomas Ekström wrote that it started from the Diamond, with more speed and stability and the same glide, and that in Ekström's own testing it went 30 feet farther than the Jade. Rebecca Cox has had a Team Series run. The PDGA approved the Sapphire on 12 November 2019 (19-72), and Latitude 64 released it on 20 February 2020. On our comparison table its nearest matches are the Innova Gorgon and the Prodigy Shadowfax.

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.
