Innova Sidewinder flight numbers

The Innova Sidewinder is a fairway driver with published flight numbers of 9 speed, 5 glide, −3 turn and 1 fade.

What the numbers say

• Speed 9. A fairway-speed disc that most players can throw to its numbers.
• Glide 5. Average glide.
• Turn −3. Strong turn: with a right-handed backhand it moves right through the middle of the flight.
• Fade 1. A light fade at the end.

Put together, the numbers read as understable. 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.
