What the numbers say

  • Speed 10. A fast disc that rewards a smooth, full-power throw.
  • Glide 4. Average glide.
  • Turn 0. No turn: it holds its line through the middle of the flight.
  • Fade 3. Strong fade: it hooks left hard at the end.

Put together, the numbers read as stable to overstable. Turn is shown as a negative number, so −3 turns more than −1, and a higher fade finishes harder to the left for a right-handed backhand. A left-handed thrower sees the mirror image.
