DESCRIPTION:
Westside Tursas is a controllable midrange disc designed for all skill levels, but particularly beneficial for beginners and players with slower throws. Here's a breakdown of its features:
Understable disc, which means it will turn (curve to the left for right-handed throwers) during flight and fade (curve back to the right) minimally upon release.
shallower grip than most mid-range discs on the market, making it comfortable for players with smaller hands, children, and those new to the sport.
Speed 5, Glide 5, Turn -3, Fade 1 according to Innova's disc rating system. Here, lower speed and glide ratings indicate the disc is not designed for maximum distance but for control.
Negative turn rating means it will turn significantly, while a fade rating of 1 signifies minimal fade at the end of the flight path.
Tursas is a great option for a controllable midrange disc that can turn for turnover shots and hold straight lines for beginners.
