Innova Leopard Fairway Driver - Classic First Fairway

Flight Numbers

6Speed

5Glide

-2Turn

1Fade

The Innova Leopard is the classic first fairway driver, with easy glide and a gentle turn that help newer players reach real fairway distance. Released flat it tracks straight and drifts right late (RHBH), and on a hyzer it flips up and glides forward with a soft finish. Experienced throwers keep it in the bag for wooded fairways, low-ceiling tunnels, and controlled turnovers.

Why Throw the Leopard?

🌱

The Classic First Fairway

One of the most recommended discs for new players, giving real fairway distance without needing a big arm.

🔄

Hyzer-Flip Machine

Give it a little hyzer and it stands up, glides forward, and finishes softly.

🌲

Wooded Fairway Control

Tracks straight and drifts late, perfect for shaping lines through tight wooded holes.

🪂

Easy Glide

A glide of 5 keeps the Leopard in the air on smooth, controlled throws.

🎯

Soft Finish

A fade of 1 means it lands forward without a hard skip, great on narrow holes.

➡️

Controlled Turnovers

Experienced players use it for gentle anhyzers and low-ceiling tunnel shots.
