Capricornus

Mid Range
The Capricornus is a midrange rated 5/4/-2/0. Two points of turn with zero fade suggest a gently understable flight that drifts right for a right-hand backhand and settles without a late hook, a shape that flatters slower arms. That is how XCom pitches it too: the brand's store calls it an easy-to-throw midrange whose flight helps prevent an early fade, aimed at lower arm speeds and new players. The Shenzhen brand leans on constellation names for many of its molds, and the PDGA record pairs this one's name with earlier identities: it was previously certified as the XPT3, also known as Griffon and Grampus. TryDiscs records an Earth run, one of the planet names XCom uses for its plastics; the store lists further planet runs our plastics data does not yet record. The PDGA lists the approval, under the current name, as 17 January 2020.

DiameterHow wide the disc is, edge to edge. Almost every disc is 21 to 22 cm.

1.9 cm
Rim DepthHow deep the rim is underneath, where your fingers grip. Putters have the deepest rims.
1.4 cm
Rim ThicknessHow wide the rim is. Wider rims make faster discs that need a stronger throw.
1.3 cm
Rim Inside DiameterThe width of the flat middle, inside the rim. Bigger usually means a slower, easier disc.
18.9 cm
Rim Depth/Diameter RatioRim depth as a share of the disc's width. Higher means a deeper rim for its size.
6.5%
Rim ConfigurationA PDGA score for the shape of the edge. Low is sharp, like a driver. High is rounded, like a putter.
41.25
BeadA small ridge under the edge of the rim, mostly on putters. It changes how the disc feels in hand.
