Maybe I was not clear. The 140 Wraith is a problem because of turn over, not fade. It is right up there with my archangel as my least stable disc. My problems with it are many, but fade is not one of them. It hits the ground right as fast as anything I've ever thrown unless the conditions are perfect. It may be defective for all I know. I bought it just to mess around with because I was so surprised to see it at our local Academy. They don't carry much under about 165 for the most part. It's pink, so I will keep it for the wife if she ever decides to come play with us.

Do not confuse stability in the early part of the flight with stability in the end of the flight. Turning in the early part is not really connected to the distance the disc can get but the fade kills off distance. The fact that the Wraith turns a lot in the beginning does not mean that it won't fade a lot on every other line than s-curves and even in those a less fading disc would finish flattish and get farther.
