Yikun Shu Flight Chart
The Yikun Shu is an understable, glide-heavy midrange designed for easy distance and smooth, controllable shot-shaping. With flight numbers of 4 | 5 | -2 | 1, the Shu behaves like a low-speed driver in a midrange body. Players highlight its comfortable, beadless rim shape and effortless hyzer-flip capability, making it an excellent tool for beginners, lower-power throwers, and anyone who wants a workable mid that can carve lines in tight fairways.
Shu Flight Path for Beginners
Newer players will find the Shu incredibly forgiving. Its -2 turn and high glide help it flip to flat easily, producing longer flights than most beginner mids. Even with low power, the Shu holds gentle turnover lines without dumping early, making it ideal for developing clean form and learning angle control.
Midrange Flight Chart for Intermediate Throwers
Intermediates can use the Shu as a shapeable workhorse mid. Thrown flat, it turns smoothly before drifting into a soft, forward-fading finish. It excels on hyzer-flip straight shots, wooded fairways, and touch approaches where you need the disc to glide rather than fade out. Power throwers should dial back a bit to avoid excessive turn.
Flight Numbers Breakdown for Advanced Players
Advanced players will find the Shu to be a finesse disc rather than a power mid. At high speed, it becomes noticeably understable, making it useful for long turnovers, floaty late-turn flights, and controlled hyzer-flips in tight gaps. Its dependable, mild finish ensures the disc doesn’t hook up sharply at the end of the flight.
Forehand Flight Path Notes
Forehand throwers with smooth form may enjoy the Shu for touch flicks and standstill shots. Its understability requires clean release angles—overpowering it will cause early turn or rollovers. For controlled finesse forehands, especially in woods, the Shu performs well when thrown with light torque.
