What should players do if the disc becomes warped?

• A. Replace it with a new Frisbee
• B. Continue using it
• C. Repair it with tape
• D. Use it only for short passes

Answer: (A)

Warped discs disrupt flight stability. When the rim isn’t perfectly round, the disc can wobble, dive, or drift unpredictably in the air, making passes inconsistent and increasing the risk of collisions or injuries. Because of that, the most reliable and safe choice is to replace it with a new Frisbee that has a proper, uniform shape.

Continuing to use a warped disc keeps the unpredictable flight and can lead to erratic throws that teammates can’t anticipate. Repairing with tape isn’t durable enough to restore balance; it can peel off or create new imbalances, making flight even less predictable. Using a warped disc for short passes only masks the problem and doesn’t address the safety and fairness concerns.

Replacing the disc restores consistent flight characteristics, helps players execute clean passes, and keeps play compliant with standard equipment guidelines.
