Speedi 12

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 5

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 -1

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 3

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 2022 Tour Series Philo Brathwaite Star Destroyer from Innova is an overstable disc golf distance driver that offers players reliable distance. The stamp features a robot in flight with grenades attached to the hip. It's soaring through the sky, just like the Destroyer is meant to do.

The flight path of the Destroyer is going to be straight, have high speed turn, and then some forward glide before a long hyzer. If you're consistently crushing a disc 350+ feet this is the flight path you can expect. It's a disc designed for advanced players or folks with big arms. This disc is a great choice for sidearm or backhand shots, and you'll see it thrown week in and week out on the Disc Golf Pro Tour. What makes the Destroyer an amazing disc is that it's a blend of control and distance. You won't get your maximum distance throw with this disc, but you always know that it will fade even in headwinds. It's got a little bit of a wide sized rim, but most players will find it comfortable to hold.

Star plastic from Innova is a premium blend that offers players good grip and flight characteristics that match the flight numbers. This is the choice plastic of many professional disc golfers and regular players as well. It's affordable and it works for years. Star comes in a variety of weights and colors so make sure you get exactly what you like.

This Destroyer isn't just an awesome disc that's going to provide you with controlled distance. It's also a Tour Series disc that helps support Phil Brathwaite as he tours the US giving us commentary on live streams and playing on the pro tour. Snag one of these limited edition 2022 discs and support an awesome guy and get a great disc.
