Innova
SKU: DG-INV-ST-JAY (REF1308 *AST**4)
Description
The Innova Star Jay midrange is a micro-beaded, true-to-release midrange, molded in Star plastic. It's built for players who want a straight, easy-to-control flight, and it's at its best on point-and-shoot mid shots. If you're shopping for a dependable Jay for your bag, this Star run is a great place to start.
Star Plastic
Star is created with a special blend of grippy, resilient polymers. It offers the outstanding durability of Champion plastic with improved grip like Pro plastic, and it flies like Champion while being slightly less firm. It provides predictable performance, long-lasting durability even on wooded or rugged courses, good all-weather grip, and it retains its flight longer than DX or Pro plastics.
The Mold
The Jay is a micro-beaded midrange with a true-to-release flight. It can handle power or be finessed, has better torque resistance than most midranges, and still finishes straight. It's one of Innova's most point-and-shoot discs.
Stability
The Jay is neutral-to-stable. Neutral discs fly straight and true with very little turn or fade. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it flies straight with only a slight drift left as it slows down. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, with a gentle drift right at the finish. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It's an easy choice for beginners and a reliable tool for experienced players.
