Turn is the tendency of a disc to bank ("turn over") to the right (for RHBH throws) at high speeds during the initial part of the flight. A disc with a +1 rating is most resistant to turning over, while a -5 rating will turn the most. Discs rated -3 to -5 make good roller discs. Discs with less turn are more accurate in the wind.
The cranial region includes the upper part of the head while the; facial region includes the lower half of the head beginning below the ears. The forehead is referred to as the frontal region. The eyes are referred to as the orbital or ocular region. The cheeks are referred to as the buccal region. The ears are referred to as the auricle or ...
The trapezium is distinguished by a deep groove on its anterior surface. It is situated at the radial side of the carpus, between the scaphoid and the first metacarpal bone (the metacarpal bone of the thumb).
The olecranon (/ oʊ ˈ l ɛ k r ə n ɒ n /, from Greek olene ' elbow ' and kranon ' head '), is a large, thick, curved bony process on the proximal, posterior end of the ulna.It forms the protruding part of the elbow and is opposite to the cubital fossa or elbow pit (trochlear notch).
Beneath the neck of the radius, on the medial side, is an eminence, the radial tuberosity; its surface is divided into: . a posterior, rough portion, for the insertion of the tendon of the biceps brachii.
In comparative anatomy, the more neutral term entepicondyle is used. The medial epicondyle gives attachment to the ulnar collateral ligament of elbow joint , to the pronator teres , and to a common tendon of origin (the common flexor tendon ) of some of the flexor muscles of the forearm : the flexor carpi radialis , the flexor carpi ulnaris ...

Its lower third is broad, convex, and covered by the tendons of the muscles which subsequently run in the grooves on the lower end of the bone. The lateral surface ( facies lateralis; external surface ) is convex throughout its entire extent and is known as the convexity of the radius , curving outwards to be convex at the side.
