I was looking at the Innova catalog last night, and noticed the glide rating for the Aero, a speed 3 disc, is 6, the highest rating Innova gives out.

What on earth does a speed 3 disc with a glide factor of 6 fly like? Does it hover?
 
Pretty amazing disc. I don't use mine anymore, but easily could. Great for ups and long conventional putts. For me anyway. I have thought about trying to find a really light one as a dog disc.
 
It also has ZERO Turn and ZERO Fade, so it tends to go exactly where you throw it.

I loathe discs with minimal turn and fade, even though I carry a couple for the sake of lowering my score.

I would much rather flex a stable disc or hyzer flip something understable for the sake of the beauty of flight.

I work in Ontario and yes, I like to play with girls... as long as they don't whine and cuss when they play poorly ;)
 
I have an old beat up DX Aero with the proto stamp & I would definitely say it lives up to the 6 rating. I use it for long jump putts or upshots that I'm trying to run. At about half power it is dead straight start to finish
 
Aero is a fun dusc no doubt. Hey Discette can get some Aeros and Polecats run in GStar por favor?
 
They do have good glide, in this video i throw one 270 feet on an effortless standstill, watch that flight, they fly pretty sexy. (It was 180 grams too)
