While we will always gravitate towards a disc that gives a shout out to 80s rock and roll, the Journey driver is good for other reasons. The low profile and long wing produce an abundance of speed in a long, straight controllable flight with just the right amount of overstability. It has enough resistance to turn for the big arms, but it's not too overstable for the smaller arms and newer throwers.

As their name implies Gateway is based in St. Louis and has been active in the disc golf community since 1994. When they're not busy help design disc golf courses (the current count is over 90!) they have created a special line of discs including their popular putter the Wizard.
They were the first to develop wide-winged drivers to battle wicked headwinds and currently have over 32 PDGA-approved models available in three plastic blends: Diamond, Platinum and Sure Grip. They've recently started working with hemp polymers which is sure to attract a, uh... um... new market of players.
