Innova
SKU: DG-INV-HLS-RR (REF1346 *AST**6)
Description
The Innova Halo Star Roadrunner fairway driver is Innova's most understable 9-speed driver, molded in Halo Star plastic. It's built for newer players and anyone who wants easy distance and turnovers, and it's at its best on turnovers, rollers, and flip-to-flat shots. If you're shopping for a dependable Roadrunner for your bag, this Halo Star run is a great place to start.
Halo Star Plastic
Halo Star is Innova's latest high-performance polymer, offering maximum durability and a brilliant appearance. A two-tone injection process gives every disc a "Halo" rim that's a different color than the flight plate. Every Halo Star disc looks unique, but runs are extremely consistent, and it's a slightly more stable version of Star with Star's durability and superior grip.
The Mold
The Roadrunner is a long-range driver with lots of glide and one of Innova's best drivers for turnover shots. Power throwers use it for long turnovers and rollers, while less powerful throwers get long, straight shots and low tunnel shots. World Champions Gregg Barsby and Juliana Korver have leaned on it throughout their careers.
Stability
The Roadrunner is understable. Understable discs turn away from your throwing arm at speed, making turnovers and hyzer-flips easier and helping lower-power players fly straight. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it tends to drift right during the fastest part of its flight, then shows a gentle fade back to the left. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, drifting left early and fading right at the end. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It suits beginners who need help getting straight flights as well as advanced players who want to shape turnovers.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 9 | Fairway speed, manageable for most arms. |
| Glide | 5 | Lots of glide to help it stay in the air and add distance. |
| Turn | -4 | Lots of turn to the right (RHBH), built for rollers and big turnovers. |
| Fade | 1 | Very little fade, so it finishes nearly straight. |
