Innova Disc Golf Star Mamba Distance Driver 11/6/-5/1 - Choose Exact Disc
by
Innova
SKU: DG-INV-ST-Mam (REF890 *AST**3)
Description
The Innova Star Mamba distance driver is the driver for the masses, with more turn than any other Innova 11-speed, 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 easy max distance, flips, and rollers. If you're shopping for a dependable Mamba 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 Mamba has more high-speed turn than any other 11-speed Innova driver. It unlocks easy maximum distance for players with developing arm speed while giving experienced throwers effortless hyzer-flips, long turnovers, powered-down straight shots, and big rollers.
Stability
The Mamba 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.

| Turn | -5 | Lots of turn to the right (RHBH), built for rollers and big turnovers. |
| Fade | 1 | Very little fade, so it finishes nearly straight. |
