Speedi 5

The first number is the speed of the disc. It can range from 1-14. Putters are rated 1-3 and are designed to function at low speeds any player can use. Mid range discs are 4-5 and require more speed when thrown to achieve their desired results. A fairway driver will be speed 6-8, these discs fly mostly straight. Discs that are speed 9 and above are classified as distance drivers. Throwing a distance driver takes a significant amount of power to get up to speed, players are rewarded with additional distance if they learn to control these discs. New players are cautioned that speed does not equal distance. Due to the difficulty of controlling higher speed discs, a beginner could find that a light weight disc with a speed of 6 or 7 could fly farther for them than a max distance driver with a speed of 13. In fact most new players should learn by throwing putters only so they can develop the proper form. After a few weeks they'll begin to get reliable results and are ready ×
glidei 4

This second rating is numbered 1 – 6. Glide describes a disc’s ability to remain in flight. Discs with higher glide ratings will fly further than discs rated lower in this category. A high glide rating is good when the goal is distance, but can have the wrong effect for putts and approach shots. Sometimes overshooting the basket can be worse than not making it far enough. Low glide ratings such as 1 or 2 are popular with upshot putters because they don't fly for distance but for a little extra control. Glide is different for different kinds of discs as well. A putter with a glide of 4 will stay airborne much longer than distance drivers with a glide of 4 ×
Turni 0

Third in Innova’s flight rating system is turn. Turn is rated from 1 to -5?, with -5 being the most understable. The lower the numer, the more striking turn will result. A newer, slower-throwing disc golfer using an understable disc with a ‘high’ negative turn rating will enjoy great distance, as the disc isn’t going to fade as quickly. Also, players whose farthest throw is 200 feet or less probably won’t notice any turn in the flightpath. Once a player gets more speed and power, they will see their understable discs start turning to the right at the beginning of the flight before fading to the left at the end. Discs rated -4 or -5 are popularly used for rollover or roller throws by experienced players. Some discs have 0 turn which means that they'll start to fade when they run out of speed during the flight and at no point will they turn. It's important to carry at least one disc with a high turn rating in your bag for rounds. ×
Fadei 1

This last rating category ranges from 0 to 5; with a disc rated 0 being the straightest finishing, while a disc rated 5 fading the most during the last portion of the flight. Even discs rated lowest in turn will still ‘fade’ as the disc slows at the end of the flight. A disc with a higher fade rating is useful for a hole with a dogleg. Straight finishing discs are great for control, discs with little fade are normal. If you're a Right-hand backhand thrower you'll find that almost every disc wants to fade to the left at the end of your flight. Discs with a 4 or 5 fade rating are excellent in heavy winds. They sacrifice a little of the distance but make sure that the disc won't do anything unexpected. Discs with a low fade are more susceptible to being affected by the wind. ×

Product Description

The Innova Star Jay is a stable midrange with plenty of glide. It's got a microbead that you're not going to notice with your hands. It's a little domey and at 21.7cm it's a slightly wide mid to hold in your hands. You can rely on the Jay for straight shots that have a consistent tick of hyzer at the end of the flight.

The flight path of the Jay is very straight. Comparing it to other Innova mids is pretty easy, it fits somewhere in between the straightness of a Mako3 and it's got the finish of a beat in Roc. As a 5 speed disc this is throwable by anyone who reaches 100 feet consistently. You can use this disc when you need a reliable hyzer shot in the 100-250 foot range. The Jay is perfect for when you want something that fits comfortably in that straight to stable mid role. It doesn't have as much glide as other mids, so throw it where you want it to end up. The Jay is a great choice for tunnel shots and any time you want something reliable. It does handle the torque of a softer forehand well, and a backhand very well.

Star plastic from Innova is a premium blend. It's well known for its durability and grip. You'll see pros throwing it each week on the disc golf pro tour and folks on your local course as well. It's thrown all around the globe because it works.

Check out the Innova Star Jay. If you're looking to fill that slot in your bag for a disc that doesn't break too far left or right and want to release it flat for straight throws.
