[Innova] Game on with Archon

[bcr123psu]

I'll buy at least one (a protostar, to be specific) to go into the collection.

 

[gkeberhart]

you better start trademarking those names or something and then license them to the disc manufacturers

lol I would laugh if I saw the next disc to be released with one of those names.

 

[gkeberhart]

given the names of most of the discs coming out in the recent, you might be surprised.

Also, Japanese myth has some cool names. How about another driver made for noodle arms called Baku; the eater of dreams.

Wouldn't mind a good, neutral mid called Amaterasu...

Baku is a giant cute dog in Monster Rancher:

I heard Innova is working on a deal with Nintendo to name a line of discs after Pokemon.

 

[DeadEye]

You're all wrong. The next Innova disc is....

Cthulhu!

 

[BrotherDave]

I will laugh my arse off if it's "a beginner friendly Vulcan, for easy distance with low power players in mind." Then they'll have to make a more beginner friendly Archon, then a beginner friendly version of that, and so on...

 

[Jeronimo]

I wonder if it will open up the gates for new names that Gateway says dont exist.

McCormack is an unoriginal idiot. I'm surprised he's still in business.

I thought exactly this the other day, it would be AWESOME.

Eventually they will come out with a leopard...

No, it will be a wide-rimmed Leopard-L + with a groove. :| It will be called the Ocelot with Down Syndrome.

 

[billnchristy]

Isn't that a millennium disc already? O-DS

 

[yawpstang64]

It would be sweet, like a faster wraith, I hope it comes in pro

DGS: There is also a slightly less stable Wraith variant on the way, it will come in weights down to 158gms in Champion, Pro, or Star plastic.

Dave D did say they were filling holes in the driver chart, so I expect this to be the 11/12 5 -2 2

 

[billnchristy]

Are they going to make it solid? 0 to -5 with 1000 discs in the lineup?

 

[RightAJ]

A faster Beast maybe? Or a less stable Wraith/Destroyer? Could be a good disc, we'll have to see..

PS why do new discs never come in DX anymore? I love DX plastic

 

[jubuttib]

Because high speed drivers simply don't hold up for any amount of time in DX. The only low speed Innova release for some time, the Wedge, comes in DX.

I wouldn't be asking it to hold up for a long time, more just to try it out. They make Wraiths and Destroyers in DX, why not the other stuff? Doesn't matter all that much to me just curious

Doesn't have as much to do with not holding up as much as the ability to mold them and maintain integrity in the flight plate which is so thin with wide rimmed drivers. I believe that's why you see the lighter weights with R-Pro versus DX which is a stronger material for the flight plate to not puncture as easily.
