Prodigy A5 (500)
The Prodigy A5 in 500 plastic is a straight-to-neutral approach disc built for players who want clean control, dependable touch, and long-lasting premium durability. As one of the most versatile approach molds in Prodigy’s lineup, the A5 offers a gentle high-speed turn with a subtle, forward-moving fade—ideal for straight approaches, hyzer-flips, controlled turnovers, and smooth forehand touch shots. In 500 plastic, the A5 gains a semi-firm, premium feel with a sleek finish and excellent grip, providing consistent releases and reliable stability round after round.
Flight Profile — 3 / 4 / -1 / 1

Glide 4: Smooth carry that pushes straight or holds touchy angles.

Turn -1: Natural flip-ups and gentle turn with clean form.
-
