The Suture is rated 9/5/-2/1. Two points of turn with a single point of fade suggest an understable driver flight, right drift for a right-hand backhand and a gentle ending; TryDiscs files it as a control driver. It is not the disc for headwind work.

It was a mold from Salient Discs, the small 2013 to 2014 South Carolina brand. No PDGA certification for the Suture appears in the approval export traced for this page, and no brand copy for it surfaced in the sources traced for this page.

TryDiscs records a Liquid run of the mold, marked discontinued.
