Innova Discs

The Philo Brathwaite Star Destroyer routinely turns unlikely shots into your personal web gems. How this batch of Star Destroyers feel: Noticeable dome. More about the player: Nowadays most know Philo Brathwaite for his  fun and engaging commentary for pro tour coverage. Though Brathwaite has slowed down his competitive play the last few years, he has shown he can still hang with the best like when he won the US Masters in 2023. And, you can’t mention Brathwaite without mentioning his Albatross at the 2016 Beaver State Fling (Thrown with a Destroyer). He amazingly finished the 850-foot par 5 in only 2 throws. And, it was caught on tape during Central Coast Disc Golf’s coverage.  More about the disc: The Destroyer is a very fast, very overstable distance driver meant for advanced players. Thrown with the proper amount of power, the Destroyer disc flies straight followed by a slight turn for incredible distance until its mighty fade brings it back to the ground. Why only available in 165-169 grams? Because that’s the weight of the Destroyer that landed the Albatross. Destroyer Flight Numbers: 12 / 5 / -1 / 3

Gregg Barsby throws his Eagles for just about anything. His Innova Proto Glow Champion Eagle is just as versatile. Give it a ride. It’ll stay with you for a long time.  How this batch of Proto Glow Champion Eagle feel: Moderate dome. Softer Glow plastic feel. More about the player: Gregg Barsby’s biggest win came at the 2018 World Championships. But he might be just as well known for his entertaining play and infectious personality. It’s not uncommon for the popular player to strike up conversations with fans after rounds. A veteran of the pro scene for more than 20 years, Barsby has a number of other wins and feats including the unforgettable roller ace at the Masters Cup in 2009. More about the disc: The Eagle X is the original, professional level overstable fairway driver. Great option for power players looking to carve smooth lines forehand or backhand with steady fade. Eagle Flight Numbers: 7 / 4 / -1 / 3

Grip like no other and super flexible, the Innova Soft Pro Toro is a delight to hold and throw. How it feels: A beadless and small diameter disc, the Toro, has the low profile and comfortable feel of a Rat. However, the rim of the Toro is much beefier. Most are pretty flat. Innova Toro Flight numbers:  4 / 2 / 1 / 3 How the Toro flies: The Toro was built to handle anything you put on it for short to medium length backhand or forehand shots. “Massive torque resistance,” is how Innova co-founder and disc inventor Dave Dunipace describes the Toro’s flight, which in layman’s terms means it’s an ox of a disc. Soft Pro plastic: This plastic is so flexy and gummy is Gumby is jealous (remember him?). Best in terms of grip for all Innova plastics, but among our least durable plastics. Ideal for cold and wet rounds. Grabs chains better too. The Toro is great for: Brute force medium length forehand and backhand drives and approaches. Headwind shots without a second thought. Slow-panning anhyzers. How will I throw it?: Beginners: We don’t recommend this disc for newer players. Intermediate players will see fairly straight mid length shots followed by heavy fade. They should stick to lighter weights unless they’ve already got a cannon for an arm. Advanced players have the green light to put everything they have on this disc and still count on a strong fade finish.

Big glide is the Innova GStar Tern’s calling card, which means you don’t have to break your back to throw this maximum distance driver far.How it feels: Noticeable dome. Wider rim, but not difficult to grasp. Unbeatable GStar grip.Flight numbers: 12 / 6 / -3 / 2How the GStar Tern flies: The Tern is a fast, slightly understable driver that’s born to make tight ‘S’ styled shots. What’s great about the Tern, is that you don’t have to have incredible power to throw it far. Just throw it flat or with a tiny bit of hyzer and its glide and natural turn will take it from there.Great for: Hyzer flip bombs.Extremely long turnovers.Maximum distance standstill shotsTailwind drivesHow will I throw it? Amateur players will love the Tern. Once you find a weight that agrees with you, you’ll never take it out of your bag. It’s got the perfect amount of understability for medium strength arms to really crank it, but has enough fade to keep it in play. The Tern is still a viable option for those with big arm speed and you’ll see those players making effortless turnovers with the disc.
