If you’re into close encounters with the basket, look no further than the DX Alien, the declassified multipurpose disc that can send your game to the stars.
How this large diameter disc feels: The upper half has a Sonic look and feel with its domey top and familiar fastback grooves. The bottom half though, is equipped with a thicker, more modern-day mid-range rim. The DX edition is extremely grippy.
DX Alien Flight numbers: 4 / 2 / 0 / 1
How it flies: With a flat release in fair conditions, the Alien flies straight 200-300 feet (depending on arm speed), and then torpedoes down – its signature move. 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 flight
Short Drives | Mid Range Hyzer or Anhyzer | Backhand or Forehand approaches
Multipurpose: Everyone can find a place for this disc even as a putter because this flying saucer loves to crash land in the chains.
Great for:
How will I throw it? Experienced players with substantial power will enjoy manipulating the Alien for everything from short drives to baby approaches. For those with less arm speed may be surprised at the disc’s overstable finish, but once, but after some practice this disc will get lots of reps. Less experienced players should try it in DX plastic first.
