[Innova] Innova Daedalus

[Questatement]

And I hope they don't. Proto stars make awesome clocks

Not to sound racist or anything but... they all look the same.

Meh.

 

[Romans 5-8]

Cool name, seems like it might be too flippy for me. I might try one, but I'm not a big fan of the g*, I've had some teebirds and roc3s, but have traded them because they didn't impress me much. I might throw one of these down the road if they make them in star plastic though.

 

[mrlizard]

I love the star Tern, I wonder how it compared.

 

[mrDROCK]

Daedalus

Icarus

Song version of the story. Icarus flew, Daedalus did not.

Because song lyrics are always perfect representations of the source material. :doh:

You must not know much Thrice, then. One of the most intelligent bands in their genre.

Innova has used names from mythology for many years. This includes not only Greek or Roman Mythology but Norse, Persian and Native American myths.

Roc - Approved 1987. Which does pre-date Diety Discs by about 27 years.

Other INNOVA disc names drawn from mythology (and the year the disc was approved).

Phenix (sic) -1988
Griffin - 1993
Pegasus - 1997
Thunderbird aka TeeBird - 1999
Firebird - 2000
Valkyrie - 2000
Hydra - 2004
X-Caliber (sic) - 2008
Vulcan - 2010
Daedalus - 2014

...and some I likely missed.


Which came first, INNOVA or Deity?

:clap: Bravo!

 

[DikkaD]

Deity? Come on.

I'm a (mostly) Innova guy but I don't see this release being too popular. Cool stamp though, so casual players might pick it up.

LULZ, I knew this is the type of crap this disc was gonna be given on here. I love me some Vulcans, so this new disc is going to be good for me. I wanted a g*vulcan, but I guess the Daedalus will have to do. I am glad it seems no one from the huge DGCR crowd that matters so much in disc golf(not) is buying them. I was afraid they may sell out because everyone here would snap them up.

I'm not afraid to ask, how are you supposed to pronounce this name? I know people that struggle with pronouncing Aviar correctly so this should be a hit.

 

[whentherainscome]

dead' uh liss

 

[onemilemore]

I've heard it pronounced as "day duh lus."

 

[Puckstopper]

I've heard it pronounced as "day duh lus."

This is how I've always pronounced it.

Great plastic, and an awesome stamp. Too bad it's a speed 13 disc that I won't be ready to throw for a long time (if ever).

 

[kevdiv48]

I thought of this:

[BogeyNoMore]

dead' uh liss

correct :hfive: short "e" and not long "a"
Daed·a·lus [ded-l-uhs or, esp. British, deed-l-uhs]

If you click the speaker on the page linked, you'll hear it pronounced.

 

[Stankyjahnke]

Maybe it will be like a longer tern. Why does everyone gotta be negative?

People will be more happy with the gstar rhyno than this
