The Ridge is a putt and approach disc rated 2/3/0/1. Zero turn and a single point of fade suggest a mostly straight putter flight with a soft left lean at the end for a right-hand backhand. Vibram's own page said the Ridge excels at the finesse approach while handling a power drive, likes to hold its line, and works as both a hyzer putter and a straight-line putter, with the rubber X-Link material helping it grab the chains. PDGA approval came on 3 December 2009, the brand's third putter certification in its first PDGA-approval year. TryDiscs records six rubber runs for it. Production ended with Vibram's 2018 exit, though the Ridge was among four molds briefly returned to retail in 2022, per coverage that year.

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.
