Innova Sidewinder
The Innova Sidewinder is one of the most beginner-friendly distance drivers on the market, prized for its effortless turnover shots, long glide, and roller potential. With flight numbers of 9 | 5 | -3 | 1, this disc is perfect for players looking to add extra distance with less power or achieve smooth anhyzers and controlled rollers.
Its high-speed turn and gentle fade allow it to hold turnover lines longer than most drivers in its class, making it a go-to for shaping shots through tight woods or for players seeking to master distance drives with finesse. For lower arm speeds, the Sidewinder offers surprising distance. For advanced players, it serves as a reliable roller disc straight out of the box.
Among fans, the Sidewinder is affectionately known as the “Mountain Destroyer” for its long, understable flights that carve down wooded fairways with ease. While some plastics (especially Champion) tend to be more stable, Pro, DX, and GStar blends offer that classic Sidewinder flip and glide right from the first throw.
Whether you’re new to the game or just want a disc that’s easy to manipulate for turnovers and finesse shots, the Innova Sidewinder remains a trusted choice for control and distance alike.
