Gem

Mid Range
The Gem is a midrange rated 5/5/0/0. Zero turn and zero fade is as neutral as a rating gets, suggesting a straight flight that goes where it is aimed with little finishing movement either way. XCom's store calls the Gem, or Gemini, a neutral straight-flying midrange that handles enough torque for seasoned players while staying friendly to new ones, with a rim so aerodynamic it reads almost like a fairway crossover. Like several early XCom molds it carries former names in the PDGA record: it was previously certified as the XPT2, also known as Eden and Dolphin, with the approval under the current name listed as 17 January 2020. TryDiscs records Earth and Mars runs from XCom's planet-named plastics; the store lists further planet runs our plastics data does not yet record.
