The Kiwi is RPM's strongly overstable driver, rated 10/4/0/4. It is useful for hyzers and other placement lines that need a heavy finish, with more stability than a gentle-turning distance driver. A slower throw is likely to show a short forward section followed by a pronounced curve. RPM identifies the Kiwi as the brand's first driver, previously sold as Raptor and Taniwha. The manufacturer says the later version has more stability than the earlier designs and recommends it for wind-oriented throws and utility rollers. PDGA records list the mold under its former Raptor name in August 2006 and a retooled Kiwi approval on 9 April 2020. For buyers of old stock, the version matters more than the shared Kiwi name.

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.
