How it flies: With a flat release, amid mild conditions, most players will find the Gorgon travels smoothly (300 to 350+) with a noticeable turn (more so than the Star or Pro edition) and a fade that’s present, but not overly so.

“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 mild to moderate forehand power, the GStar Gorgon will fit right in your bag with long, straight flights with modest turn. Those with noticeable power will find it flippy.
GStar plastic: If you prefer discs on the softer, more flexible side of the spectrum, GStar is it. It’s the most grippy plastic for Innova drivers and really shines in wet and cold seasons. It ranks among our most durable plastics. It’s also considered more understable than Star or Champion plastics.
