Putt & Approach
The Summit is a putt and approach disc rated 2/3/-1/0. A point of turn and no fade suggest a putter that flies straight to gently rightward for a right-hand backhand, with nothing pulling it back left at the end. Vibram's own page framed it as the understable complement to the V.P., its overstable putter: straight at lower speeds, a good disc for beginners and for predictable finesse approaches, and able to hold an anhyzer line at faster speeds. It was the brand's second putter certification, nine days after the V.P., on 28 January 2009. TryDiscs records six rubber runs across its Granite Medium and X-Link families. The mold went out of production with Vibram's 2018 exit from disc golf.

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.
