The Innova "Beast" is a versatile distance driver designed for controlled long-range flights. With a speed rating of 10, it bridges the gap between fairway drivers and high-speed bombers, making it ideal for players aiming to surpass 100-meter throws for the first time. Champion and Star plastics offer distinct characteristics: Champion provides more initial stability for tighter fairways, while Star develops noticeable turn after a brief break-in period. The DX model gives beginners quick access to distance flights, as it achieves full flight patterns even at moderate arm speeds. In flight, it demonstrates a balanced interplay between turn and fade. The -2 turn reliably engages for most throwers, creating a gentle rightward curve during mid-flight without losing control. A glide rating of 5 ensures extended float and extra distance. At the end of the flight, the 2 fade predictably brings the disc back left—strong enough for wind resistance but not as overbearing as overstable bombers. This balance makes it adaptable to various lines, from straight tunnel shots to controlled anhyzer lines for maximum distance. For intermediate players, the "Beast" serves as a dependable workhorse distance driver, delivering consistent results both backhand and, with practice, forehand. Beginners benefit most from DX plastic, which demonstrates the classic S-curve even at moderate power, helping them understand faster discs. Advanced players rely on Champion versions for precise fairway drives in windy conditions or seasoned Star models for controlled turnovers. As a classic all-rounder, it covers distances between 90 and 120 meters while remaining forgiving enough for different throwing techniques.
