Obstacles seems to wither away with the Rasmus Saukkoriipi Proto Glow Champion Toro from Innova.
How this batch of Proto Glow Champion Toro feels: Flat. Softer feel.
More about the player: Rasmus Saukkoriipi, of Finland, is a forehand specialist who’s been on the pro scene since 2022. Largely appearing in Europe, Saukkoriipi tied for 19th at the 2023 European Open and has a number of other impressive finishes.
More about the disc: Bulldoze your way to the green with the Innova Toro – the great feeling overstable mid range that’s sure to win-over power players in any arena. New Proto Glow material shines on and on.
Flight Numbers: 4 / 2 / 1 / 3
Get the birdie party stared right with Kevin Jones’ Innova Luster Champion Max. This disc really knows how to lay a beat … down.
How this batch of Luster Max feels: Minimal dome. Handy Luster grip.
More about the player: Already a well known name on tour, Jones joined Team Innova midway through the 2024 season, bringing his podium experience and clutch play. Last year, he had a top five finish at the Ledgestone, but he’s probably best known for his 2020 DGPT Championship win. Off the course, he Rocs the house with his DJ skills (hence the stereo themed stamp).
More about the disc: With a fade of 5 (the most for an Innova disc) and a minimal glide of 3, the Star Max is the closest you can come to throwing a PDGA approved cinder block. No matter how you throw it, it will fade a way to fade.
Flight Numbers: 11 / 3 / 0 / 5

Do your fingers a favor and purchase the Innova Firefly in Soft Pro Plastic. The plastic is so gummy and grippy your hands will never want to putt with anything else.
**Scuffs are more apparent in Soft Pro plastic. This is normal and does not affect the flight or performance of disc.
How the Soft Pro Firefly feels: Very Flat. Beadless. Grip to the max. Great for cold weather rounds.
Innova Firefly Flight numbers: 2 / 3 / 0 / 1
How the Firefly disc flies: Players have taken to the Firefly so fast because of its stable to overstable short range flight that stays true in a range of conditions. It has a touch more fade than the Aviar, which comes in handy for long range hyzer putts and stable approach shots.
Great for:
Short Drives
Lengthy circle putts
Clutch, hard throwing putts.

The Innova AviarX3 is the most overstable disc in the Aviar family tree and it’s the go-to approach disc for power player and forehand specialist Jeremy “Big Jerm” Koling.
More about the AviarX3 in Big Jerm’s Words: “The AviarX3 is the disc I rely upon most in my bag. I use it for essentially every forehand and backhand approach inside 300 feet,” said Koling.
He also says it’s great for:
Out-of-position rescue shots
Point and shoot flick rollers
Stable flexing anhyzers
Ultra-long panning overhead throws
Disc Feel: “The flat flight plate provides a nice hand feel but it also eliminates unnecessary glide. This allows me to be more aggressive with my approaches while ultimately getting more bullseyes,” said Koling.
A Mid Range in Putt & Approach Clothing: Don’t forget to use this beefy disc for moderate length drives and for headwind approaches.
2016 US Champ: One word best describes Jeremy Koling’s performance during the 2016 USDGC and that is: “Solid.”
Solid putting
Solid accuracy off the tee
Solid mental game that minimized mistakes
With a bullet proof performance like that, it’s no wonder Koling earned the biggest win of his career. Being a “major champion is something that I will have for the rest of my life and that means a lot to me,” said Koling after his win.

The XCaliber is for those who have got to have the biggest and the baddest. Extremely fast with glide and stability. This is the one for confident bombs in windy conditions.
