I have once.
why do certain discs without beads have plenty of glide and still zero turn? I was chastised for insinuating that the 2 are not always intrinsically related. Thinking Excalibur. I'm assuming its the PLH?

From a Righ-handed back-handed throwers point of view:
Line up so your right shoulder is facing the target.
Step your right foot towards the target.
move your left foot behind your right foot and towards the target. This will make you turn away from the target, that is ok.
Step your right foot towards the target. This will make you rotate back towards the target.
That is the basic of the x-step. I hope that explains it kinda well, I couldn't find a visual illustration of it I used to have that was way better. Check out some disc golf videos on youtube (I recommend discgolfmonthly) and watch the pros drive off the tee. Most of them use the x-step for longer shots.

What's the best noob disc?
let me rephrase (im speakin INNOVESE)
Many have told me that glide is always related to turn unless a bead is involved
I'm asking because the Excalibur has a glide rating of 5 but has zero turn
I don't think the Excalibur has a bead so this confuses me
TIA

FINE, I will answer my own question
Hyzer and Anhyzer are release angles, not flight paths. You can not throw a disc flat and watch it hyzer.

that's a good ? actually.
what do you recommend to have on hand for new players that want to go out for a round with you (read me).

So this is where everyone is.
1. How does the flight of an Augusta Wraith differ from the regular run Wraiths?
2. Is CE plastic really that much different than todays molds? What makes it better? Could they reproduce it if they wanted?

Leopard, XL, Cyclone, Shark, Buzzz, Challenger. The list goes on.
The DGCR Acronyms & Initialisms thread deals with a few of the same subjects and is a good resource. A few of the more asked about terms include links for further explanation.
Good thread, Frank.

What is PLH?
depends if you wanna hide bad form or teach good form
Augusta Wraiths, along with other '06-'07 CFR runs are more stable than any run of production of Wraiths(or so Wraith enthusiests would say).
