Fade
The low-velocity stability that causes a disc to hook at the end of its flight. Range: 0 to 5.
Very straight disc. If you want to throw it hard, it can take the torque and give you some nice turn before a straight finish. I typically don't throw it very hard and it's very easy to control. It has a nice feel in the hand - not too shallow and not too deep. Can be thrown forehand for a straight control shot if you need it. I'm really happy with this spot in my bag. It goes between and Undertaker/Escape and a Buzzz.
A bit less stable than expected, but you quickly learn to not throw it hard. Given a little nose up, it flies far and holds anhyzer lines or can stay just straight. ESP is a bit understable overall.
Very nice fairway driver. If you’re looking for something more straight, I’d recommend Z plastic. Big Z is noticeably more stable to me, not overstable, but stable enough to resist a hyzer-flip. Great feel in the hand too.
Played the first round with my new Cicada yesterday and all I can say is, Wow!! This disc is so easy to work with. Great distance and control. Absolutely going to be a regular go to disc!
This is a very comfortable in the hand 7 speed. Super controllable, Will have soft left to right movement when thrown at half power. Floats down fairways, flips up to flat nicely, turns over out of huzer flips if you need it too, great woods disc.
