Here's what Discmania has to say - CD1 is back with a reinvented name in our new and improved C-Line plastic. Formerly known as CD2, we’ve brought the mold back to the spotlight based on popular demand. The letters “CD” in the name stand for Control Driver, putting the player in the driver’s seat and allowing you full control to manipulate and style the disc exactly how you want it to. CD1 makes for a great first distance driver for less powerful or skilled players and an incredibly useful disc for experts, too. Those with a bit more arm speed will find that this disc often will compete for distance with even their fastest drivers, yet the execution feels more effortless and controlled.
Here's what Eagle had to say about the CD1:
“The CD1 is great for all different skill-levels and it feels incredibly comfortable in the hand. This disc is one of the best teachers for a forehand as well. It is very symmetrical and has a really good amount of torque resistance, so you’re able to throw it pretty hard and you get these really straight lines with very soft finishes.”
CD1 handles just about any wind condition with ease but is most well suited for tailwinds and calmer weather. Players will notice that the CD1 has the tendency to fly similarly to a well seasoned PD, giving you the right amount of glide and shot shaping options but will always maintain enough stability to end with a smooth low speed fade in the end. If you only had one disc to play a round with, this disc would be an excellent choice.
