by
Innova
SKU: DG-INV-ST-DAE (REF956 *AST**5)
Description
The Innova Star Daedalus distance driver is a speed 13 distance driver built to soar, 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 soaring max-distance drives. If you're shopping for a dependable Daedalus 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 Daedalus is a speed 13 distance driver Innova describes as made "for humans who want to soar with gods," with big glide and turn for long, soaring flights.
Stability
The Daedalus 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 |
