    The Jiao is an understable fairway driver, designed with the beginning disc golf player in mind, as well as being perfect for any thrower with lower arm speed.  This is one of, if not the most understable PDGA driver on the market. The Jiao can achieve peak distance with less effort and is also a great place to start for young players. This driver is designed to provide more distance for disc golfers throwing less than 250 feet. The Jiao will provide disc golf flight with a throw style used for Ultimate Frisbee.

    More experienced players can use the Jiao for easy rollers or low-power hyzer-flip shots and quick turning anhyzer throws. If you're looking for a great first driver for your first ever round of disc golf, this is it.

    (Tiger plastic) This discs looks and feels the exact same as a innova leopard which is nice.  For me it was extremely understable, I was using it along side the leopard and it was about twice as understable.  Needs a lot of hyzer in order to not dive into the ground.  I was able to get some nice rollers out of it though.  Seems like it will always finish on the anhyzer side which can be nice

    I just started playing this year. Started off using yikun discs. Bought this in tiger plastic and took my bag to the park for some field work. I noticed this disc was going further than everything else.

    1st off, I'm new, haven't build up much power at this point, and I'm 57 yrs old. 

    This disc is in my bag. It's reliable, and for me, one of my longer throwers. I don't go much higher than a 7 speed at this point. My bag consist of several yikun discs. I've experimented with others, the buzzzz, paradox,etc. Most people I play with haven't heard of yikun, which I don't know why. The discs have been awesome for me, reliable, and in dragon plastic, durable. Try one in tiger plastic, it's cheap, and who knows, you might become a fan.

    I got this disc for my fiance who is still quite new to the game. For a new player that consistently releases with a hyzer angle the disc will turn over a ride a beautiful flex shot. The disc is very beginner friendly and the glide provides a nice longer fairway driver for a new player. I would seriously recommend this disc to every new player. 

    I also really am impressed with the quality and durability of the tiger plastic. The quality of the tiger line plastic is similar to a DX but with a little gummier feel and more durability. The tiger line I have not seen break and scuff like DX similar plastics. I recently purchased a lot of Yikun discs and the quality of their discs has really stunned me.

    This disc would be an awesome beginners disc- hence the 5 star rating. I'm an intermediate player, and I still found some nice use for it. Think... a little more understable Leopard. It's a speed 6 and it flips with any kind of power. I used it for nice understable shots through the trees, and it was awesome.

    I think this disc would be perfect for any brand-new players. I'll have to recommend this as a cheap option to any friends who decide to start playing.

    I bought this thinking I really wanted a very understable, slower disc to work on my form. When I got the disc, the numbers on it were not what had been listed on the website (6/5/-2/1.5 disc vs 6/5/-5/1.5 web). I figured no harm no foul, it'll just be a back up to my Relay. Until I took it out and tried throwing it. Wow. I couldn't get it to do anything but anyzer. No matter how flat I threw it. So Infinitediscs had it right. For me at least it throws mlm ore like a -5 than a -2. I'm not a pro or expert by any means, but I do have a few years experience. I wouldn't recommend this to a beginner, but I do think it could be a good diac for some players that want a very understable disc.

    This is it. The perfect disc golf driver for your first ever round of disc golf. For the true beginner, child, women, senior citizen, or less than athletically gifted recreational player, this is a 5 Star disc, a game changer. 

    This is a disc you can throw low power on a hyzer angle and it will simply flip up and glide straight. It is so easy to get distance with low power. It teaches you to throw with good clean form, otherwise it will turn over without flying well.

    I've taken numerous brand new disc golfers to the disc golf course for the first time and have watched them finish far left of their target with Hyzer shots, over and over while getting very little distance and lots of frustration. Unless a disc is ridiculously light weight, disc golf discs by the major manufacturers are almost always too overstable for a true newbie. 

    If you throw forehand/flick/sidearm, or try and overpower your disc by throwing hard this disc will likely not work at all for you. If you throw with any kind of power, it is likely just going to turn over and roll into the ground. The high understability also makes this a great utility disc for anhyzer shots, especially from people who struggle with forehand throws.

    As a bonus this disc looks cool with the Chines Ram Dog creature and is really cheap as one of the least expensive discs on the internet. If 200 feet of distance is good throw for you, buy a Yikun Tiger Line Jiao today.
