Now that's what I'm talking about!!!

My favorite thing about Innova is, well, kind of a weird thing all together. My favorite thing is calling them and being placed on hold. The music going while you are holding for someone is usually The Grateful Dead. F'n classic.

I actually don't mind waiting on hold when calling them. :D

If Innova decides to come out with another disc in the next two-six months I might just have to switch over completely to Discraft just out of principle. I dont want to be mind f&%^%ed on a regular basis and be forced to question my curent bag situation and spend more money due to disc curiosity and obsession over the next best thing. I am already half way there with the Nuke/buzz/stalker so it wont take too much for me to take the plunge. But could I really leave behind my beloved boss/destroyer? Hmmmmm. Just my personal rant/.02 on the concept.

Has anyone thrown this? I'm looking to get one of the wraith/archon/krait series, but I don't want to get stuck with the one that sucks. Maybe I'll just give up and throw a surge instead.

Did threw Blizzard Krait couple times.

Its overstable type. More overstable than Blizzard Wraith.

It works for women that wants to throw long hyzer around tree or against the side-wind. Thumber, maybe?

Enough said, its a good wind disc. That's all.

For me, I wouldn't put it in my bag anyway. :|
Tee Off and Pay ATTENTION!! :shock:

I throw both the wraith and the archon. If you have good arm speed they are very different. The archon is "vulcan topped" and acts like it. Great for huge hyzer flips. I have a 2 year old champ wraith that still won't turn like that. The krait just came out in "regular" champ plastic so I may have to pick up a 175 to see how it compares to the others.

agreed on the Archon- not very Wraith like except for the rim size. Some lighter throws will show fade at the end a bit like a Wraith, but I threw hole 1 at Maple with an Archon (didn't want to hyzer out weak) and it never even considered coming back- just flew over the pond and kept going over road toward the right. I am hoping the Krait actually IS like a beat Wraith.

Sweet! it was so close to coming in short (dry but short) and I hit a tree! I have a Bolt about 80 feet short of the shore on 16 too- oops. Gotta throw farther...

Josh, do not try to throw every disc. Instead, realize the truth: there is no disc, it is only yourself.

When I started playing I was much more familiar with the brand Innova than any other - it's what most people I knew were throwing. It seems that Innova tries to capture the newer players. I remember when Wraith came out, I was early on the gettings in my circle and when our club got some to sell at the weekly, it was like watching pirhannas attack a catfish. I think the objective is find some discs that you like, and stick with them. Why change what's working - I just watched some "In the bag" sesh's on youtube - their throwing the same old same old - no mentions of Kraits, or Vulcans, or Archons. Nuke-buzz-stalker is becoming a popular combo and I'd add Predator, Wasp, and Zone, to the list. Having said all of that - never leave the Destroyer behind!
