[Innova] Orc love?

[Stardoggy]

I carry 2 Star Orcs, and have one backup. Love em. It's my favorite FH distance disc, and right up there for BH. My Stars are one older, one newer. The older is about as dependable a disc as I have. Nice effortless distance, and solid glide for the plastic. Just a super dependable, predictable disc.

I only throw old old orcs, and I love them. RHBH they are great for any straight or stable shot, and LHBH I can use them for straight to understable. Flies almost the same lines as a teebird but longer. I carry a couple of DX for hazard discs too. I have some older ones for sale or trade if anyone is interested. I have 30plus pre numbers orcs stacked up lol

d-dx
p-pro
c- champion
s- star

beats me on the 5th type. they are molded by Innova after all.

They are probably referring to the SG-Line, which was a special first run of MD-1's that were in a gummy star plastic. They are still floating around out there pretty cheap on MST and other sites, curious about how close that run is compared to the softer star material they use for the overmolds or the GStar. Been wanting Innova made discs in an FLX like plastic, would be great in winter especially.

The orc is one of my favorite discs super predictable. My bag isn't complete without an orc I prefer star over champ orcs though

I picked up two orcs recently that weren't like anything I had seen yet. They were super gummy, flat, but not pearly. I flipped them over to look at the tooling and they didn't have the www.innovadiscs.com on the back. What date would these have been produced? Would they be 1st runs?

I assume since u mentioned pearly that they are champ plastic? I don't think I've ever seen an actual first run Orc they didn't really look and label discs like that per say back then. Pictures would help, but I m guessing just a regular mold from back I the day all those orcs were flat and had a good feel but most I think were pearly though.

Yeah they are all champ plastic. I've attached some pics below:

If you ever want to get rid of that blue one, let me know.

I'm now carrying three Star Orcs, and they have completely pushed Saints out of my bag. Also carrying a PD for a bit more OS shots.

I would consider the green and blue to be at least slightly pearly. They have the ring where the rim meets the flightplate and look vaguely pearlescent. All three are patent tooled so they're all older runs.

I carry 2 star Orcs. Fresh/Heavy with a Beat/Lighter. So good for distance+control. I've always used them like fairway drivers, but then again, speed 9-10 rims feel so much better in my hand than 6-8 or 11-13 speed discs.

I have some like this. I guess they are first production run. I also have some pearlies that are pre- www.

My guess these are may be first batch look kind of pearly or may be 2nd looks like, after the first pearly ones I remember from back in the day. Prob from batch before they started printing numbers on them might b nothing special except a great under rated disc u got, I like.

Thanks for the knowledge. The Orcs have become one of my favorites.

My new pearly champion Orc at 168g.. throws really nice.

 

[Tokyo]

Pretty!!

My favorite driver of all time. Yeah it's not the biggest distance driver out there,but it's real consistent for me. A very overlooked driver.

I think the biggest reason it got overlooked when it first came out was because of the Beast. If I remember right both the Beast and the Orc came out at the same time. Beast was more popular at the time.

 

[Buiscutboy]

I just got a DX Orc, and I'm liking it so far. It reminds me of my X Avengers, just without the crazy dome. Little turn, big fade. I'm probably not throwing it hard enough, but I like the flight. I'm gonna look at the Orcs next time I go in the shop and get one with the same PLH in a tougher plastic.

I'm hoping for a G Star c:

The orc has been my go to driver for the past year, i absolutely love it. Once a pearly orc is beat in I fall in love, which is why i was so devestated after losing my old pal two weeks ago. Within those two weeks i have bought 3 replacements for cheap, and found 2 as well . Today i found a pristine blue pearly orc just laying over an old fence. I realized after the fact that climbing a pointed, rusted, wire fence probably wouldn't end up well- and it didnt. One nice cut to my hand and a tetnus shot later and i have #5 :thmbup:
