The Nordic Warrior is Viking Discs' fading midrange rated 4/4/0/2. It fits controlled hyzers and midrange drives with a moderate finish, where the desired landing includes some sideways movement. Viking recommends Nordic Warrior for both throwing styles and describes a combination of carrying flight and resistance to stronger releases. The company particularly highlights larger hyzers and windy use. That gives it a flight role centered on a defined finish, rather than an easy turnover that needs to stay turned. The PDGA approved Nordic Warrior on 17 January 2017 (17-04).

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.
