Ask Dave Dunipace About Innova Discs

[davei]

Any Possibility of Star Whippets ?

Definitely possible, but not soon with our present production crunch.

[davei]

Dave,
Any idea when we can expect the dx Teerex in regular production? I am really looking forward to this one.
Thanks in advance.

The DX TeeRex has been scheduled, but we haven't gotten to it yet. Probably by November.

The biggest disappointment has got to be the Champion Viking.

Use mine regularly. Although my Leopard, Valk or T-Bird can mostly handle shots where I might have used the Viking. It's important to have purple and yellow ones for Minnesota this time of year.

[gnduke]

I love my Champion Viking. A very dependable performer.

Hey Dave, I had the opportunity for my hands to grace the presence of a Star Max last night, when are they going to be available on the innovadiscs web site?
P.S.- that disc was made to be in my hands.....

The biggest dissappointment has got to be the Champion Viking.

Would you mind spending a few more words on this. You have the Orc, Starfire and Valk surrounding the Viking (basically). All of which are highly favored if this message board is any indication.
Who is missing out by not having a Viking?

[Furthur]

One of the local pros here in IC throws a Viking, and can throw that thing straight for a country mile.

The biggest dissappointment has got to be the Champion Viking. The biggest surprise is probably the I-dyed discs.

The Viking is the best Valkyrie made.

[MDR_3000]

Who?

Harper.

[Furthur]

Harper.

Yep. If he can't reach it with a roc (which really isn't that much), he reaches for his viking.

I need my Viking because it is the longest straightest driver I have. The next would be a TL, I think. We have other drivers that can go long and straight in no wind situations, but they tend to get unpredictable in the wind. It is similar to the Valkyrie in the air, but more predictable. It will turn up without flipping over. It lasts for a long time. It is easy to grip. It flies well for sidearm also. Sales don't match the utility and performance of this disc. It's sister disc, the Valkyrie, on the other hand, is one of our best sellers, but it's no longer in my bag. It has been replaced by the Beast or Sidewinder depending on the course/situation.

Thanks. I have a Star Valk, but I would never have considered the Viking to be a disc that I could carry. I always thought it to be too over stable for me.

[ChunkyleeChong]

I dont know if this info can be found anywhere, but what do the numbers look like for the new Star Max?

[davei]

Hey Dave, I had the opportunity for my hands to grace the presence of a Star Max last night, when are they going to be available on the innovadiscs web site?

They are currently available as a fundraiser. I am not sure when or if it will go mainstream.

[davei]

11, 4, 0, 4

[ChunkyleeChong]

How does it compare to the tee rex at 11 5 0 4? They must be very similar. Is it really that much more overstable?

[jonnydobos]

From my experience, it is that much more overstable. I would compare a Tee rex as an 11 speed teebird and a Max as an 11 speed firebird. That is a generalization, but the best analogy I can think of.

[ChunkyleeChong]

That is a pretty good analogy, thanks. I just had in my mind with the tee rex being 11 5 0 4 that a Max would maybe be a 11 4 1 4. Anyways I cant wait to get my hands on one....

[quickdisc]

Definitely possible, but not soon with our present production crunch.

Thanks Dave. Whenever you get a chance !!!!!

[geomy]

Thanks Dave. Whenever you get a chance !!!!!

Donny O.

Yes, Thanks!
We will be waiting eargerly!!

[tokyo]

IF it is more stable than a Tee Rex I need it, give it to me!!!

I agree. The number don't capture the difference as well as the Firebird TeeBird analogy. The TeeRex will stay on its line longer than the Max. The Max also requires a little more power and nose control to operate properly unless you just want a spike hyzer or overhead. The Max is more bullet proof in the wind too.

[hawkgammon]

Dave,

What would a Viking give someone with 300' driving power that a TeeBird doesn't?

Thanks.

[accidentalROLLER]

....a new disc.

I'd say probably about 30' and a little more lateral movement, especially on the low speed fade.

[sleepyEDB]

1st Roc 1988, 21,2cm
San Marino (1989-1994) Large diameter Roc 21,7 cm
Ontario (1995-1997) 21,7 cm
Classic Roc (1996-) 21,2cm, re-make of the original Roc, very similar to XD.
Rancho Cucamonga (Proto 1997,1998->) 21,7 cm, there are variations among the Ranchos, blunt nose, sharp nose and old big bead. I am not sure about those, Dave can clear that out.

Which of these eras would be the discs that are commonly referred to as 'big bird rocs'? The ones I'm thinking of have the bird facing the right-side of the disc with the word ROC in small type on the left-side...

Thanks,

sleepy

I have one Ontario with that stamp, but I think there are San Marinos and Ranchos with a similar stamp.

[wyattcoggin]

I have a few rock's but an expert.

The San Marino and Ontario Have the same Big Bird Stamp both have two rings around the stamp.the Rancho has a similar big bird stamp except the rings are broken not compelete circles. that is in DX Plastic

[wyattcoggin]

Sorry that was to read " I am not a Rock expert" I have many ROC's, Can't say how many some one will tell my Wife.

[davei]

Dave,

Thanks.

A straighter slightly longer flight. TeeBirds are a little more high speed stable and low speed overstable. This uses more fairway width for slower throws. TeeBirds have more carry and less speed.
