Elevation Koi

Elevation Koi 3 | 4 | -1 | 0

Stop the rollaways and attack the basket with absolute confidence! The Elevation Disc Golf Koi is a specialized beadless putt and approach disc renowned for its ability to completely eliminate ground play. Designed with an understable-to-straight profile, it excels at touchy turnovers, straight approach shots, and mitigating risks on steep, fast greens where rollaways or big skips are a massive hazard. If you are tired of watching your perfect upshots turn into tragic bogeys, the Koi is the ultimate "hit and sit" utility disc. Add the Koi to your bag alongside other flexible favorites like the Elevation Screech and Elevation Arowana, and explore the complete Elevation Discs Collection today.

Flight Numbers & Performance

The Koi features incredibly workable flight numbers of 3 | 4 | -1 | 0 (with some runs showing slightly more turn closer to a -2). Because of its flexible rubber nature, it demands clean release form. When thrown flat with power, its understable nature allows a clean flip-up and gentle drift to the right (for RHBH throwers). On softer, powered-down touch shots, it functions as a highly accurate, floaty point-and-shoot tool.

How the Koi elevates your short game:

• The "Hit and Sit" Factor: The core appeal of the Koi is its lack of elasticity on impact. It folds against the terrain upon landing rather than ricocheting, making it a reliable "death putt" safety option.
• Touch Backhands: The Koi is a master of the smooth, touchy backhand approach. Let the glide do the work and watch it softly drop next to the pin.
• Chain Grabbing: Because the material is so soft, it literally "melts" into the chains upon impact, dramatically reducing the chance of spit-outs on aggressive putts.

Elevation Rubber Blends

The Koi's behavior and hand feel are heavily dictated by Elevation’s signature vulcanized rubber formulations. Choose the flexibility that fits your game:

• OG / Silicone Rubber: The original ultra-floppy material. It can literally be rolled up into a ball, absorbing full impact to melt into chains and drop dead on hillside landings.
• ecoFLEX: Made with up to 30% recycled medical-grade rubber, this blend serves as a middle ground. It offers a slightly firmer structure for a clean release while still delivering a highly flexible, impact-absorbing hit-and-sit outcome.
• ecoFIRM: The stiffest formulation available in the lineup. It provides a familiar, traditional putter feel that can handle full-power throws with confidence, yet retains enough rubber flexibility to significantly mute ground play compared to traditional premium plastics.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Elevation Koi good for forehands?

Because the flexible materials (especially OG and ecoFLEX) literally bend to your hand, the Koi demands a very clean release. Advanced torque or aggressive forehand styles can cause the disc to fold out of the hand prematurely. It is generally better suited for touch backhands unless you are using the stiffer ecoFIRM blend.

What does "hit and sit" mean for the Koi?

When the Koi hits the ground, a tree, or a steep hill, its rubber body absorbs the kinetic energy of the impact and collapses. Instead of skipping, sliding, or rolling away, it simply stops exactly where it lands, saving you from dangerous rollaways.

Can I use the Koi as my main putter?

Absolutely! Many players love using the Koi as their primary putter, especially on fast or sloped greens. The incredibly tacky rubber grips chains exceptionally well, drastically reducing spit-outs.
