The Discraft Meteor is a speed 5 midrange with glide 5, turn -3 and fade +1, for an estimated maximum distance of 83 m / 272 ft. With turn outweighing fade by 2 points, it is a very understable midrange: it drifts right easily for a right-handed backhand, flying straight or turning over for a slower arm. The flight path above is traced directly from Discraft's official chart, so it reflects the disc's real charted flight rather than a calculated estimate.

How the Meteor flies

At speed 5, this is a midrange in the midrange range. It asks for only moderate arm speed and stays controllable for the majority of players. Its glide of 5 keeps it airborne and carrying with little effort. A turn of -3 means it banks right easily in the early, high-speed part of the flight, and a fade of +1 gives it a moderate finish to the left as it slows.

Who it's for & how it handles

Stability: Very understable (rating -2). In a headwind it can turn over and lose its line, so it shines most in calm conditions or with a tailwind behind you.

Backhand & forehand: It excels at backhand turnover lines and rollers, but tends to flip over on a forehand — most players keep it to backhand throws.

Skill level: Its manageable speed and understable flight make it forgiving for newer players still building arm speed.
