by
Innova
SKU: DG-INV-DX-Ske (REF821-19)
Description
The Innova DX Skeeter midrange is a straight-flying midrange with a dependable fade, molded in DX plastic. It's built for players who want a straight, easy-to-control flight, and it's at its best on putting, approaches, and short drives. If you're shopping for a dependable Skeeter for your bag, this DX run is a great place to start.
DX Plastic
DX is Innova's value plastic, offered in the widest selection of models and weights. It provides excellent grip in a variety of weather, and it wears in with use, gradually taking on new flight characteristics. Many top pros carry several DX discs of their favorite models for different flight patterns.
The Mold
The Skeeter is a straight flyer with a dependable fade, great for putting, approaching, and short drives.
Stability
The Skeeter is neutral. 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.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 5 | Midrange speed that rewards smooth form over raw power. |
| Glide | 5 | Lots of glide to help it stay in the air and add distance. |
| Turn | -1 | A touch of high-speed turn to the right (RHBH) for a little extra distance. |
| Fade | 1 | Very little fade, so it finishes nearly straight. |
