Innova Plastic Types

Every disc golfer needs a disc that can turn the tide. Our Classic Glow Champion Tern with the slice n’ dice Sling3lade design has enough wow-factor in the air and on the disc to keep you in the hunt. * A Marm O. Set Design. Run Details: Pretty flat to minimum dome. More about the design: The original SlingBlade design with two blades was cool, but this Sling3lade edition with three blades is even cooler – we’re talking cool infused with bacon and fire breathing monster trucks – kind of cool. Not only that, but artist Marm O. Set, who calls this “My favorite of the VTX series,” was inspired by Boba Fett’s helmet for this ultra clean design. Can’t go wrong there.

More about the Tern: The Tern is a fast slightly understable disc that is designed for long shot shaping throws.
