Eurodisc Disc Company Review – Introduction
True story.
I went to a new course in Maine and I played with a true beginner.
The guy I was playing with had the classic Dx starter kit and had never heard the words stable, hyzer, turnover, etc.
I didn’t want to fill his head with all that. But one thing I did do in the middle of the round was to hand him a disc after his initial tee shot went far astray. I told him to throw the disc I gave him exactly the same as he’d thrown the previous one.
He parked it.
The disc? Eurodisc’s Transporter.
I just happened to be testing out Eurodisc’s triad of beginner-friendly discs and was throwing them exclusively.
Right there, he took a picture of it and is probably bagging it as we speak.
That’s because Eurodisc designs their discs to be incredibly useful for beginners but also makes sure their discs age well in your bag once you shed that beginner label.
And Eurodisc has one other admirable and intriguing element in mind as well when they got into disc golf game.
Sustainability.
Eurodisc’s Push For Sustainability
When Eurodisc, a German manufacturer that also has headquarters in the US, launched, they did so with sustainability in mind.
Disc golfers invariably lose discs. Thankfully, many of them are found, returned, or at least put to use again.
But for the discs that don’t get recovered, Eurodisc is exploring the use of bioplastics. That way, should the disc end up at the bottom of a pond or lost in the woods for good, it would simply dissolve over time, without the harmful leaching of chemicals. These discs would be biodegradable.
And in the world of Ultimate Frisbee, they have already created this product! They have a 100% organic frisbee that is approved for competition.
In addition, Eurodisc uses other sustainable practices including packaging with recycled paper, using photovoltaic cells for much of their energy production and more.
They’ll be the first to tell you that they have more to accomplish in the realm of sustainability, but they are happily taking the next steps to attain these goals.
One such step is to create a PDGA approved disc from bioplastics. Given the fact that they’ve accomplished it in Ultimate Frisbee, one has to figure that it’s only a matter of time. I, for one, applaud their efforts.
I also applaud their three, highly beginner-friendly disc offerings. Let’s have a look!
Eurodisc’s Current Triad of Discs
The first three disc offerings from Eurodisc, not surprisingly, are a putter, a mid and a fairway driver.
For months I have had the opportunity to test each of these discs out and put them through various tests for flight, wind, durability and more.
Bottom line. These are some nice, smooth-flying discs that are favorable for beginners but could find a place in anyone’s bag.
Eurodisc sent me a disc in both of their plastic offerings which I’ll briefly review now.
Eurodisc Plastics
As of right now, there are two plastics that Eurodisc offers.
SQU is their base plastic offering which still has a nice grip and tack to it. It’s durability is comparable to other base offerings. For me, it’s a great plastic for their putter.
Selection is Eurodisc’s premium offering. This is considerably more durable than SQU while also providing plenty of tack and grip to combat most throwing conditions.
Now, let’s look at each individual disc and see which plastics might work best for each.
Eurodisc’s Putter – Delivery!
Flight Ratings 2, 3, 0, 0
Delivery is a beaded, straight-flying putter with medium depth and a nice hand feel. I got mine in weight that was lighter than I’m used to, yet I was still impressed how well it held up to power as well.
I also appreciated how it was able to handle itself admirably for a variety of touch shots. This disc could be trusted to hold an anhyzer line for the entirety of its flight.
In short, it Delivered! Check it out here!
Delivery!
Eurodisc’s Midrange – Transition!
Flight Ratings 5, 5, 0, 0
Transition is a beaded, straight-flying midrange with medium depth and nice glide.
For me, this disc was a chain-seeker! I smacked one in from 70 feet on my second toss with it, and I think it’s a great disc from 150 and in. This disc is meant to be thrown in a controlled, smooth manner. If you do this, you’ll get a very forgiving and favorable flight out of it. If you up the power, you can get a nice turn out of it as well, but my flights were less consistent at higher powers. All told a fun disc to hunt chains with!
Check out The Transition!
Transition!
Eurodisc’s Fairway Driver – Transporter!
Flight Ratings 7, 6, -2, 1
Transporter with its moderate rim depth, high glide, and slight understability, is the perfect first driver for any disc golfer. You don’t need to give it much to watch it go.
But as you progress as a disc golfer, this one can definitely stay in the bag as it’s great for hyzer-flips and even long turnovers. I was in a jam while testing it and was able to get this disc to perform a long, sweeping forehand anhyzer around an obstacle and watch it hover safely into circle 1.
For a great beginner disc that never leaves the bag, check out The Transporter!

Eurodisc Review – In Summary!
Eurodisc is working hard on many fronts!
First off, they are going the extra mile in order to bring sustainability to our beloved sport. By using energy/resource-efficient practices and by working to make discs using biodegradable bioplastics, (which they’ve already done with their Ultimate Frisbee offering) they are working to make the impact of disc golf far more beneficial to our planet.
Additionally, they are working double time to make great discs for players of all levels, especially beginners. By making discs that fly so smooth and forgiving, they are allowing newer players to catch the bug all the easier. This adds another layer of sustainability to our sport as it keeps new players coming in. I found great joy in using them out on the course and I’m certain others will too!
With all they are doing so well, and all that they plan to do, I for one, wish Eurodisc a long, successful run in the disc golf world!

Finally someone else who has used Eurodisc! I started disc golfing in Oct 2022 with no previous experience, a wild forehand, no backhand, and a Innova DX starter set. I met a local Eurodisc rep randomly on the course and he offered to send me a set of discs for free. I instantly fell in love with the SQU Transition and Transporter. In fact I still bag both of those molds today, hundreds of rounds later. The Transporter is my main backhand control driver, but it turns over too quickly on forehands. The Transition is a more overstable complement to my Mako3, but also is too flippy for forehands. I’ve holed 3 shots from outside of 100ft, all with the Transition.
I’m not a fan of the Selection plastic. For most brands, the premium plastic is more over stable than the base plastic, but I’ve found the opposite to be true with these Eurodiscs. Combine that with less grip, and I struggle to find the purpose for Selection.
I did like the Delivery in the beginning, but I really struggled with it in the wind due to the light weight. I’m still searching for my favorite putter.
Ben! I’m glad to meet a fellow Eurodiscer! That’s a pretty serendipitous story you have. I’d like to think when I was testing them in Maine, that the beginner I met and let use my Transporter, had a similar experience and went out and got one. Personally, if I had to pick one, I’d choose the Transition, only for similar reasons to you. It’s an absolute chainseeker! I feel like I’m always in the hunt when I’ve got that thing in hand.
As for the Putter, they also sent me an extremely light one at 145 grams. It’s in my son’s arsenal now. That being said, I was pleasantly surprised with what it could do despite it’s light weight. Maybe a 175g would do the trick for you? Otherwise, feel free to write some putter names or flight numbers you kind of like and I’ll throw some suggestions your way to look into.
Finally, with Selection, the only benefit might be that it’s more durable? That being said, if SQU is your jam, don’t mess with success. Sounds like you’ve got a good thing going with what you’ve got.
Thanks for taking the time to write and nice to have heard from you. I’ll look for more Eurodisc at leagues and on the course!
