SKU: DG-INV-ESTS25-AV3 (REF2144-1)
Description
The Innova Proto Glow Star Aviar3 putter is a flat-topped, stable putter for short drives and upshots, molded in Proto Glow Star plastic. It's built for players who want a predictable, reliable flight, and it's at its best on short drives, aggressive upshots, and windy putts. This listing is the Eveliina Salonen Tour Series release of the Aviar3. Eveliina trusts it for straight, precise upshots and drives. Eveliina Salonen won the 2024 PDGA Pro World Championships.
Proto Glow 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. This Proto Glow run uses Innova's upgraded glow, which glows significantly brighter and longer than older Innova glow plastics, holding visible illumination for 20 minutes or more.
The Mold
Flat-topped and fierce, the Aviar3 is ideal for short drives, aggressive upshots, and windy putts. It's stable but not overstable, for straight, precise upshots and drives.
Stability
The Aviar3 is stable. Stable discs fly straight for most of their flight and finish with a dependable fade. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it flies straight with a reliable fade to the left at the end. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, with the fade finishing to the right. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It suits players of every skill level who want a predictable flight.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 3 | Slow putter speed, easy to control without much power. |
| Glide | 2 | Very little glide, so it drops and stops near its target. |
| Turn | 0 | No high-speed turn, so it holds its line early in flight. |
| Fade | 2 | A moderate, dependable fade at the end of the flight. |
