What Disc Golfer's Think About The Discraft Cigarra
Discraft's Cigarra has quickly become a standout in the fairway driver category, earning rave reviews from players across skill levels. As a dedicated disc golfer who's thrown just about everything on the market, I'm not surprised this disc is generating buzz. Players consistently highlight the Cigarra's remarkable distance capabilities despite its moderate 7-speed rating. One reviewer notes it "flies so nice, like a buzz but just flies 150 feet further" – a testament to its efficient glide-to-speed ratio. Slower arm speed players appreciate its predictable fade, with many calling it a "great reliable disc" that enables strategic placement shots and unexpected birdie opportunities. The disc seems to particularly excel for those looking to maximize distance while maintaining control. Another reviewer positions it perfectly "between the Cicada and Athena in the lineup," suggesting it combines the best qualities of both while offering something uniquely its own. With flight ratings approximating 7/6/-0.5/1.5, the Cigarra demonstrates light understability with a dependable fade at the finish. What stands out most is the disc's versatility across varying wind conditions and terrains, making it a potential one-disc solution for many fairway driver slots in your bag.
