The #1 driver by Lighting is a stable flying fairway driver with medium speed, so it won’t get away from newer players. This disc has some turn, fade, and an overall relatively neutral flight path. This inexpensive disc is good for beginner and intermediate players, and comes in weights as low as 130 grams! This is Lightning’s #1 Selling disc. In weights under 170 grams it will float, so long as it is in standard plastic.
This disc is no longer available.

Why has Lightening stopped production on all products ? Have they gone out of business?
The owner of Lightning Discs died a few years ago. I believe that the disc golf retailer Gotta Go Gotta Throw now owns their molds, although I’m not sure why they don’t produce any new discs.
