The XCaliber is extremely fast with glide and stability. It achieves maximum distance when thrown low, flat and hard, and it's the one for confident bombs in windy conditions. It has the stability to let players with a lot of power throw it as hard as they want. It's a great disc for sidearm throwers, it can handle headwinds and throws with off axis torque, and it's definitely not designed for beginning players.

The 0 turn means it won't turn over no matter how hard you throw it, backhand or forehand, and the 4 fade brings it back hard at the end. It has enough glide to carry a long way when you throw it low and flat, but it needs speed to get there, so slower arms will just see it fade early. The wide rim takes a little getting used to if you have smaller hands. It's 21.1 cm across and 1.6 cm tall with a 1.2 cm rim depth and a wide 2.3 cm rim, and it was PDGA approved on March 13, 2008.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; margin-top: 15px; margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f2f2f2;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003eSpeed\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003eGlide\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003eTurn\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003eFade\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003e12\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003e5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003e0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003e4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Star XCaliber delivers:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTorque Resistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Throw it as hard as you want and it won't flip over.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWind Fighter:\u003c\/strong\u003e No turn and a strong fade keep it on line in headwinds.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eForehand Power:\u003c\/strong\u003e One of the best drivers for full power sidearm throws.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStar Grip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Grippy Star plastic that holds on in cold or wet weather.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt excels at:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeadwind drives that need to hold their line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull power forehands\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBig hyzers and dependable fade-out lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSkip shots that need to finish left\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Star Plastic Advantage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStar is Innova's premium opaque plastic.
