by
Innova
SKU: DG-INV-ST-GOR (REF1274-119)
Description
The Innova Star Gorgon distance driver is an effortless, high-glide distance driver, molded in Star plastic. It's built for newer players and anyone who wants easy distance and turnovers, and it's at its best on effortless distance and long wooded fairways. If you're shopping for a dependable Gorgon 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 Gorgon's design gives it 6 glide: when you think it's going to drop, it keeps carrying. Power down, focus on your release, and still get distance. Flip it up to flat for long straight lines in the woods, or release it on anhyzer and it will hold that turn for most of its flight.
Stability
The Gorgon 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 | 10 | Distance-driver speed that needs good arm speed to fly as rated. |
| Glide | 6 | Huge glide that floats a long way with little effort. |
| Turn | -2 | Noticeable turn to the right (RHBH) at speed, great for turnovers and hyzer-flips. |
| Fade | 1 | Very little fade, so it finishes nearly straight. |
