The Innova Roc is one of the most popular and versatile mid range discs in the history of disc golf. With a stable to overstable flight combined with predictable fade, The Roc expertly holds whatever line you put it on. Since its debut in 1987 it has found the bag of countless disc golfers. 

A Roc for Everyone: Many versions have been made over the years. Some out of necessity when disc molds needed replacement at the factory. While others like the VRoc, Roc3 and RocX3 spun off as entirely new models. The Roc in the Rancho mold has been the dominant version for decades and is the measuring stick for all other disc golf mid range discs. 

Diameter: 21.7 cm

Rim Width: 1.2 cm

Rim Depth: 1.3 cm

Date of PDGA Approval: January 1, 1987

Learn more about the Roc

In the Hand: (Rancho Roc)

Right away you know that there's something to this large diameter, beaded disc. The rounded, shallow rim means business, but it's not difficult to grasp. The disc design is not flashy or complicated. It just feels right.

Flight Path: How the Roc Disc Flies

If you play disc golf then this disc is for you. We're serious. This incredibly versatile disc provides predictable flight patterns on every angle for everybody. Backhands thrown at a flat angle will have a straight flight with a slight turn before its reliable fade kicks in, ultimately topping out at 280 - 350 feet for experienced players. Hyzer shots. Anhyzer shots. Any kind of shots work with this disc. After getting to know your Roc properly, you'll be amazed at the multitude of lines you can throw with this highly controllable disc. 

Innova Destroyer Flight Numbers

Innova Roc Flight Numbers

Speed: 4

A great speed that slots between throwing putters and fairway drivers. Rip into the Roc and trust that its speed will put it well down the fairway.

Glide: 4

The Roc is not overly glidey but gives you that perfect combination of glide mixed with predictable fade. Trust this consistent disc not to sail past your landing zone.

High Speed Turn: 0

This is where the Roc excels. It is a torque resistant mid - range with minimal high speed turn when new. Laser lines with a consistent fade finish is where this disc shines.

Fade: 3

Fade is what makes the Roc so dependable. Trust this disc to finish with reliable fade when thrown on most angles and speeds.

For more information on disc Flight Ratings go to the DGU Blog.

Power Levels Compared

Low Power / Newer player:

Players with beginner skill levels will use the Roc as an overstable mid - range mainly for automatic hzyers and headwind play. As players learn technique and basic angle control, more shots will become available. It may seem a little overstable at first. But stick with it. Use at lower weights. Recommended

Medium Power / Intermediate Player:

At this level, a new Roc will still fly overstable, but as it breaks-in you will be able to play with various angles of release and discover Roc shots for every hole. At this point many players start to bag more than one Roc. Recommended.

Full Power / Advanced Player

This unlocks the magic of the Roc. Bigger arms can craft controlled turnover lines and flex shots out of the Roc. The dependable fade is a constant and will make this disc a staple in your bag. You'll find yourself bagging several of these discs in various stages of wear to capture the array of shot options. Green Light. Recommended.

Why do disc golf players bag more than 1 Roc?

The Roc is great right out of the box as an overstable mid range disc. But, it's also great years later as it beats-into a stable disc and later still as an understable midrange. It's no secret, that every disc beats in eventually, but the way the Roc does it is a thing of beauty.

Every time your Roc evolves to a different stability, new and useful shots can be utilized. If you have several different Rocs at various levels of wear, you'll possess the full spectrum of Roc Shots.

That's why you'll see some of the greatest Roc throwers like 2-time World Champ Barry Schultz carry up to five Rocs, each with a specific use.

Comparisons

Roc (4/4/0/3) vs Pig (4/1/0/3)

These popular discs share three of the same flight numbers, but the one exception is very noticeable. The Pig wants to dump out of the sky where as the Roc is more glidey. Throw the Pig for shorter shots and use it as a highly torque resistant overstable forehand disc.

Roc vs Gator (5/2/0/4)

The Roc is more accessible to more players than the Gator. The Gator has a much more overstable flight due to less glide and more fade than that of the Roc. This means that power arms can unlock the Gator while most players are able to get a true flight out of the Roc.

Roc vs Toro (4/2/1/3)

You will be able to get more shot shapes out of the Roc than the Toro. The Toro is a flat-top, overstable mid - range made for powerful sidearms and windy conditions. Reach for the Roc when you need more distance or want to push further straight in your flight.

Once its flight ends, it practically falls off the table.Because of its low carry, Innova Co-Founder and Disc Inventor Dave Dunipace says the Alien is ideal for “Ranging,” meaning it does a better job landing where you aim.Versatile flightShort Drives | Mid Range Hyzer or Anhyzer | Backhand or Forehand approachesMultipurpose: Everyone can find a place for this disc.

Plastic Types

The disc design is not flashy or complicated. It just feels right.

Innova DX Destroyer

DX Roc (Rancho mold)

The DX Roc is the most popular and most affordable plastic for the Roc. This baseline plastic will start out overstable like all Rocs, but after a moderate break-in period you'll really see its potential. Even after DX discs like this start to show a little age, hang onto it. It's still got lots of magic left. Among Innova's most popular discs!

Grip: Fantastic all-weather grip. Fingers love these discs.

Durability: Good longevity for occasional play, however DX is the least durable of Innova plastics.

Innova Pro Destroyer

KC Pro Roc (Rancho mold)

Like DX Rocs, these are great discs for cycling so that you have several in various stages of wear and stability. However, KC Pro plastic is slightly more overstable than DX and will wear in at a slower pace. The KC Pro Roc is the midrange disc of choice 12-time World Champ Ken Climo (KC), who helped develop the plastic. 

Grip: Smooth. Firmer disc feel than DX. It’s the least grippy of the Pro plastics.

Durability: A step up from DX, but not quite the level of Champion and Star.

Innova GStar Firebird

Star Roc (Rancho mold)

The Star Roc is going to hold its original flight characteristics for a longer period, that means it's going to stay overstable longer. 

Grip: Excellent grip that's situated in between GStar and Champion plastic. The perfect compromise!

Durability: Star plastic’s strength is legendary. Get ready for your Star discs to grow old with you.

Specialty Rocs

Innova Star Destroyer

Bottom Stamp DX Roc (Rancho mold)

Like your DX Roc with a blank top? The Bottom Stamp DX Roc provides a blank canvas on top while providing a sweet vintage stamp on the disc's underside. Great for those who like to doodle on their discs!

Grip: Same as stock DX

Durability: Same as stock DX

Innova Blizzard Champion Destroyer

Glow DX Roc (Rancho mold)

This disc is comparable to the DX Roc but has a distinct difference, it glows! Put a flashlight on this baby and watch it light up the night. This disc is also a bit more overstable out of the box.

Grip: Unique velvet-like DX feel

Durability: Similar to DX in that it is the least durable Innova plastic. Easy to break-in, though.

Innova Halo Destroyer

Flat Top Roc DX & KC Pro (Rancho) 

How do you make a Roc even better and more popular? Flat top it, of course. Like the name suggests, these discs are board flat or as close to it as possible. The flat top is said to give the disc extra overstability and less glide. Although some Rocs can come quite flat off the factory line, most of these Rocs are post production flattened. Occasionally offered as DGU Original disc models and during Factory Second Releases. A favorite disc for many Roc lovers.

Grip: Same as stock DX or KC Pro

Durability: Same as stock DX or KC Pro

Innova INNVision Destroyer

USDGC Rocs: Champion Roc

You may have noticed that over the years, Champion Rocs have been missing from the Innova stock catalog. That's because it has been reserved as the official USDGC (US Disc Golf Championship) fundraiser disc since 2001. There have been several Roc molds used in the program’s history, but the most popular Champion Roc has always been the Rancho mold. To this day, the only way to get a new Champion Rancho Roc is through the USDGC. Occasionally, you'll see discontinued mold variations (like San Marino and Ontario) used for specialty USDGC releases. The Halo Star Rancho Roc was also unveiled for the USDGC as well.

Innova INNVision Destroyer

Collector Rocs

The Roc is probably the easiest disc to collect because of the high amount variations and its long history in production. Top on the list for collectors are the early USDGC Champion Roc releases, especially the first one in 2001. One is said to have auctioned for more than $2,000. Other prized Rocs include the Ching Full Color Rocs and the Super Roc, which was a special blend of Pro plastic used for event fundraising. Older stock DX Rocs with the Big Bird stamp and Innova Bar stamp as well as older KC Pro Rocs are also sought out. KC Rocs are usually classified by the number of World Championships listed on the stamp. Older editions with the 9-time World Champ or and 8-time World Champ stamp are quite valuable. 

Innova INNVision Destroyer

Pumpkins

Each year, as fall approaches, Innova harvests a special kind of pumpkin: select discs with Jack-O-Lantern stamps. It’s a Halloween tradition that’s just the right amount of spooky. Models offered have varied over the years but most years feature a Roc of some variety. Halloween lovers say this is their favorite disc of the year.

Innova INNVision Destroyer

DGU Original Designs

We've released a number of eye-catching Rocs over the years, most have been offered in the KC Pro plastic like the SlingBlade, XXL Squadron, and XXL Zen designs. See if we've got a DGU Original Roc here.

Roc Spinoffs

Innova INNVision Destroyer

3 Series: Innova Roc3 (5/4/0/3)

Think of the Roc3 as the big brother to the Roc. It has a more flat, low profile build which gives it a touch more speed and overstability. It's a good disc in headwinds or mild conditions. The Roc3 also comes in a variety of plastics including DX, GStar, Star, Champion, Halo and Metal Flake. Released in 2013, it was the first disc in the Roc family widely available in Champion plastic.

Innova INNVision Destroyer

X Series: Innova RocX3 (5/4/0/3.5)

If the Roc3 is the Roc's big brother, the RocX3 must be its mutated, superhero cousin. Released in 2018, it has a more low profile design than the Roc and a meatier rim. Give it a whirl and you'll quickly see that it's the most overstable disc in the Roc family tree. Great for headwinds and when you need a control disc. It is produced in a number of plastics including: DX, XT, Champion, and Star.

Innova INNVision Destroyer

VTech: Innova VRoc (4/4/0/1)

Discs with VTech like the VRoc have a convex shaped rim which helps with torque resistance and minimal fade for flatter landings. The VRoc is touted as flying like a worn in Roc right off the bat. Other limited editions of the VRoc included the VRoc2 also known as the Rocamonga and as the most overstable of the VRocs. And, the VRoc3, which was reserved for the European market and was the fastest of the VRocs. The VRoc is available in DX plastic.

Brief History of Roc Molds

Did you know that the first Innova Roc was a small diameter disc? Yes, it's true. It was created around 1985 and was later renamed the Classic Roc when the Roc was changed to a large diameter disc (its current size). This first generation of larger Rocs are referred to as the San Marino mold. When the San Marino mold gave out, a retooled Roc mold replaced it, which is known as the Ontario mold, and was later replaced by today's Rancho mold. The small diameter Roc (Classic Roc), the San Marino Roc, and the Ontario Roc were all reproduced in later years. You can often tell whether it's a San Marino, Ontario, or Rancho Roc by looking at the bottom of the disc. There, you'll see the embossed tooling of where the disc was created. Either: San Marino, CA, Ontario, CA, or Rancho Cucamonga, CA. 

Here's a Closer Look at the Discontinued Rocs:

Innova INNVision Destroyer

Classic Roc (3/3/0/2)

The Classic Roc is the descendant of the original Roc. After it was replaced by a large diameter Roc it was later classified as a putt and approach disc. This is a favorite disc of many old school disc golfers who swear by this versatile, low profile flyer for upshots. Originally offered in DX plastic and later in Champion. It is currently out of stock production, but it is occasionally seen in limited runs of premium plastics. 

Innova INNVision Destroyer

Roc (San Marino Mold)

Billed as a 'straighter Roc', the San Marino Roc is a large diameter cousin to today's stock Roc mold, the Rancho. In terms of stability, the San Marino Roc falls right between the Ontario Roc (most understable Roc) and the Rancho Roc (most overstable Roc). Originally offered in DX plastic, it did see a brief period as a stock model in Star plastic as well. Today it has limited availability. You may occasionally see it used for USDGC Runs in Champion plastic. 

Innova INNVision Destroyer

Roc (Ontario Roc)

Every Roc mold has its following including the Ontario Roc and the beautiful shot shaping lines it produces. It's considered the least overstable of the large diameter Roc molds. Limited availability. Originally released in DX plastic, it is occasionally offered in premium plastics for the USDGC and other special runs. 

Innova INNVision Destroyer

R-Pro Roc (Rancho mold)

For those preferring a gummier, flexier Roc, the R-Pro Roc was available as a stock model for several years.

Innova INNVision Destroyer

Roc+ (4/5/0/2)

How you release a disc is crucial to accuracy. The Roc+, with its slanted Plus Mold inner rim, was designed to help produce a smoother release. It flew less overstable than the stock Rancho Roc. When it was in production during the early 2010's, it was available in R-Pro plastic and Champion as a USDGC fundraiser. Some limited runs in Star plastic were also produced.

Best Uses for An Innova Roc

Backhand Approach / Medium Drive

This is the bread and butter of the Roc. Backhand mid range shots between 270 and 350 feet are nearly automatic. The Roc is overstable enough to handle a full power shot, but not too overstable to make it inaccessible to most disc golfers.

Backhand Anhyzer Throw

When new, this disc will hold an anhyzer line while trying to fight out of it. This will allow buttery soft landings by the pin. Once seasoned, the Roc will easily complete more severe anhyzer lines and can even be turned into a roller.

Straight Shots

The Roc can be thrown on laser lines when thrown with high velocity. Then, as the disc ages, you are able to get a straight flight out of a hyzer-flip line. Tunnel shots and other tight gaps don't seem as daunting with this mid.

Philo Brathwaite (Innova Star Team)

“That’s what really got me hooked on the DX Roc was how straight I could make it fly, how well I could control it, and how predictable it was.”

Amy (DGU Customer)

"My favorite midrange disc to use when I need a straight shot. I have beaten my DX Roc to a pulp and it’s my go to disc!"

Questions & Answers

Can I trust the Roc in DX plastic?

Yes. In fact, this should be the first Roc you throw. The DX Roc is the go-to plastic for pros and players across the globe. It is the perfect blend of grip and dependability. Once seasoned, grab a new DX Roc to slot into your rotation.

What is the most overstable Roc?

The most overstable Roc mold is the Rancho Roc. Of all the Roc variations, the RocX3, with the beefy 3.5 fade, is the most overstable. And when looking at the most overstable plastic, that would be Metal Flake. Try any combination of these to get a trusty overstable Roc.

What are the Roc's flight numbers?

The Roc's flight numbers are 4 / 4 / 0 / 3. The speed makes it a dependable disc. It is not overly glidey which also limits the high speed turn. Combine that with reliable fade and you have yourself a trustworthy flight path.

What pros throw the Roc?

Two pioneers that made the disc famous were Barry Schultz and Ken Climo. Heck, Ken Climo even got a mold (KC) named after him! Then Philo Brathwaite carried the Roc baton into the modern era. Just about every major disc golf career has used a Roc at some point. 

How do I get more distance with a Roc?

For big arms, get a beefier mold in premium plastic (maybe even get a Roc3 or RocX3) and throw flex lines. For beginners, start with DX and learn proper mechanics to unlock a straight flight path. Beginners should also try a used Roc to allow glide to kick in with just a bit of fade.
