Top-ranked discs on Friday September 5, 2025
If the chart had elbows, Discraft’s Zone would have just nudged the Trail aside with one. Leaping three spots into fifth place, the Zone isn’t just consistent anymore – it’s actively climbing. The kind of climb that hints at weather shifts, thrower preferences, or maybe just a collective online nudge with everyone yelling, “Just throw a Zone already.” Whatever it is, it’s working.
Up top, it’s the usual suspects. The Buzzz reigns supreme at number one for the 19th time (maybe they should mount that crown with flight plates). Axiom’s ever-smooth Hex keeps second place, like a reliable co-pilot who never argues with your line. Meanwhile, Innova’s Destroyer edges up into third, possibly thanks to those who still believe torque equals glory.
The real fireworks, though? That would be the Astronaut. Not content with orbiting at 220 just four weeks ago, it’s now landed at #110. A 110-place climb is, frankly, absurd. This is not a gentle rise; it’s a door-kicked-open kind of moment. Discmania might have a sleeper hit on their hands. Granted, the Astronaut is very understable – and for many arms out there, that’s exactly what gets discs off shelves and onto fairways.
Also worth a nod is the return of the Leopard3 at #26 after a seven-week intermission. Classic plastic never truly disappears – it just waits patiently for the collective nostalgia switch to flip back on.
Elsewhere in the top 10, MVP’s Glitch holds at seventh, and Axiom’s Crave sneaks into fourth, climbing just one place but still showing it belongs among the elite. The Mamba slithers its way into the tenth spot, suggesting that more players are embracing the understable life, or perhaps just tired of fighting their discs.
Sneaky trend to watch: a quiet but meaningful jump in Discraft loyalty. The brand has overtaken Axiom in overall position, showing once again that marketing, consistency, and the occasional Paul McBeth effect still count for something.
Next week, we’re eyeing the Trail and the Berg, both cooling fast. Will one of them be booted from the Top 10? And can the Astronaut keep climbing, or is its gravity-defying act about to end? Stay tuned.
