Midrange · Very overstable · Modeled from official flight numbers
The Innova Caiman is a speed 5.5 midrange with glide 2, turn 0 and fade +4, for an estimated maximum distance of 69 m / 226 ft. With fade outweighing turn by 4 points, it is a very overstable midrange: it holds a straight-to-left line even when thrown with power, resisting the wind rather than turning over. The flight path above is modeled from its flight numbers using a calibration built from official manufacturer charts.
At speed 5.5, 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 2 keeps it low and workable rather than floaty. A turn of 0 means it resists turning right even at full power, and a fade of +4 gives it a strong, reliable hook back to the left at the end.
Stability: Very overstable (rating +4). It holds its line in a headwind and resists turning over, making it a dependable wind fighter.
Backhand & forehand: The extra fade resists the turning force a forehand imparts, so it doubles as a reliable sidearm disc; on a backhand it finishes dependably to the left for a right-handed thrower.
Skill level: It is best suited to players who can bring it up to its rated speed; a slower arm will see it finish left early.
