Fade
An understable fairway driver with lots of glide; Discraft itself calls it understable. Beginners get a straight flight with a little fade, while intermediate and stronger arms see it turn over, so it's best on hyzer or for gentle turnovers. Later runs finish straighter than the 2 fade suggests and can flip in a headwind. It first appeared as the 2013 Ace Race disc.
Later runs fade less than 2 suggests.
