The Distortion is an overstable Prodigy approach disc rated 4/4/0/3, designed with Kevin Jones for Prodigy's Collabs Series. A firm fade suits controlled approaches, forehand upshots and windy short shots. Players who want a straight putter or one that holds a turnover should look elsewhere. Prodigy describes a rounded, smooth-feeling disc, a little slimmer than a typical putter, that finishes toward the basket, and calls it Jones's go-to approach disc. Prodigy has said Jones's Collabs discs are overstable and shallower than similar discs, and that they take their names from a passion for music production. The PDGA approved it as the A Model OS (Distortion) on 9 November 2021 (21-123), and Prodigy first listed it in May 2022. Try Discs lists it in 400 and 500 plastic as of October 2026. On our comparison table its nearest matches are the Latitude 64 Savior and the Discraft Zone.

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.
