Vulcan | Innova Champion Discs · Discgolf-Dorado.com

The Innova Vulcan is a high-speed distance driver designed for wide-open throws where maximum distance is the priority. With a speed rating of 13, it caters primarily to advanced players who possess the arm speed to control its wide rim and high velocity. Available in Star and Champion plastics, the disc excels on spacious fairways without tight corridors, while Pro plastic offers extra grip. Its distinctive profile with pronounced curvature provides a unique hand feel that may not suit everyone immediately, but when thrown correctly, it delivers exceptional distance. In flight, the Vulcan exhibits a pronounced understable trajectory with a turn of -4 and fade of 2. When thrown with power, it flips quickly to the right and holds that line before finishing with a moderate fade for controlled ground play. Its high glide rating of 5 enhances hang time, carrying the disc far when angle and power are dialed in. This combination makes it ideal for long turnover shots or rollers capable of reaching up to 140 meters. However, with an imprecise release or excessive anhyzer, the disc can become uncontrollable, leading to inconsistent flight paths—making precise technique essential. For backhand throws, the Vulcan works best with a flat to slightly hyzer release to harness its natural rightward turn, while forehand players with sufficient power can also achieve long turnovers. Advanced players with solid technique will extract the greatest distance from this disc, whereas beginners and intermediate throwers may struggle with its high speed and extreme turn. Those seeking a reliable max-distance driver for specific situations—and who have the necessary throwing power—will find the Vulcan a tool for spectacular distance.
