Innova Discs

The Innova Star Raven is a sneaky far, old school driver that has a knack for landing in paydirt. **Limited Run of Out of Production Disc How the Raven feels: Noticeable dome. Jumbo bead along top of rim. Smaller bead along rim bottom. Raven Flight Numbers: 6 / 4 / -2 / 2 How the Raven flies: In its heyday (mid to late 1990’s), the Raven was said to be Innova’s longest large diameter disc. Now classified as a fairway driver, it is still touted for its control, predictability and its penchant for finding shiny objects like the basket. Star plastic gives the best of both worlds: incredible durability while maintaining a grippy feel in the hand. In terms of stability it sits in between DX and Champion. Great for: Placement shots Long, slow anhyzers

The Innova Gummy Champion Toro provides raw overstable lines in a soft, flexy candy package. **Limited Run Disc How the Gummy Champion Toro feels: Moderate dome. Soft and bendy. 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 back hand 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. Champion plastic is among Innova’s most durable plastics. Expect years of use with little change in flight characteristics. However, it is also among Innova’s least grippy plastics. In terms of stability, Champion plastic is among Innova’s most overstable plastics. Great for: Brute force medium length forehand and backhand drives and approaches. Headwind shots without a second thought. Short-distance S-curves.

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.

Disc golf doesn’t have to be hard. Make it a walk in the park with the super glidey Innova DX Aero. **Limited Run Plastic Not In Wide Production How the Aero feels: Large diameter disc with thin rim. Feels akin to lid discs. Most have noticeable dome. Aero Flight Numbers: 3 / 6 / 0 / 0 How the Aero flies: The Aero is a stable to understable putt and approach disc that can be your ace in the hole for tricky, finesse approaches where a clear line may not be present.

DX plastic: Its ample, all-weather grip and quick break-in time is incredibly tough to beat. Plus, it’s very affordable.

Understable often means under-the-basket when it comes to the Innova Pro Sidewinder – an easy to throw fairway driver for the common disc golfer. **Limited Run Plastic Not In Wide Production How the Sidewinder feels: Beadless medium sized rim that’s not a chore to hold onto.

Its manageable speed combined with its understable flight channels the disc to the fairway more than other distance drivers. Pro plastic: A step up from DX in terms of durability. However, Pro will beat-in considerably sooner than premium plastics like Star or Champion. When it comes to grip, Pro plastic is among Innova’s best for drivers and that includes wet weather. Also, it’s considered more understable than premium plastics. Great for: Long drives without a ton of effort Turnover backhand or forehand drives Longer looping hyzers

Leave you fangs in the course with the Innova Champion Ontario Cobra, one of the deadliest utility mid ranges on the planet.  **Limited Run Plastic Not In Wide Production How the Cobra feels: It’s a large diameter mid, but the thin rim makes it really accessible for all hand sizes.

Most have noticeable dome TeeRex Flight Numbers: 11 / 4 / 0 / 4 How the TeeRex flies: The overstable TeeRex is a big distance option for long arms backhand or forehand.

Moderate headwinds are in this go-to fairway driver's wheelhouse, too. Star plastic: If you take the best qualities of all of Innova’s plastics and combine them into one plastic, you get the Star line. All skill levels, pros especially, pack their bag with Star plastic. Best combination of grip, durability and performance.  Great for: Medium length drives with a stable finish Forehand short drives Natural hyzers

The Innova Champion Hawg, an overstable sausage-roll-of-an-approach-disc, likes to scream “Wee-Wee-Wee” all the way to the basket. **Limited Run of Out of Production Disc How the Hawg feels: Similar feel to a Pig, however the Hawg’s convex lower rim gives the rim a more rounded feel. Beaded rim bottom. Hawg Flight Numbers: 2 / 1 / 0 / 3.5 How the Hawg flies: Some wild pigs have got some speed. This Hawg does not.

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

The Innova Champion Gorgon achieves monster distance without the scary fade of other distance drivers. How the Gorgon feels: Easy to grip and release. Rim is thinner than other distance drivers and its underside is also flatter. All in all, it’s a distance driver in fairway driver clothing. Most have noticeable dome. Gorgon Flight numbers: 10 / 6 / -2 / 1 How it flies: With a flat release, amid mild conditions, most players will find the Gorgon travels smoothly (300 to 350+) with an easy turn and a fade that’s present, but not overly so. The disc facilitates any release angle including anhyzers that seem to sail forever. Great as a distance gainer for less powerful throwers. “It's similar to a speed 10 version of the Leopard3 or Hawkeye. Very controllable fairway driver like flight in a distance driver,” said Innova General Manager Kobyn Dunipace. Forehand: For those with moderate forehand power, the Gorgon will fit right in your bag with long, straight flights with modest turn. Those with noticeable power will find it flippy.

In lighter weights, this disc could come in handy for beginners looking to tack on distance. Intermediate players will really benefit from this disc’s turning ease. For advance or power throwers, the Gorgon would likely be a turnover driver, but slightly less flippy in Champ plastic.
