[Innova] Replacing a well-seasoned Valkyrie.

[BradC]

As the title says. Trying to replace a lost near and dear friend that was sacrificed today.

What can I buy off the shelf that will fly like a 6-7/10 Star Valk? Inked SV on bottom, around 170g.

 

[JoshEpoo]

I like the Roadrunner. Super flippy but also easy to throw straight because the turn is so smooth. Similar to a well seasoned Valk, although the Valk probably has a touch more fade even when really beat up.

 

[Kp0c]

Buy a few dx valkyrie and cycle them. It should not take a long time before one flies like your beat up star Valk.
Just an idea.

I've got a beat up Champ Valk for sale in my sig.

 

[EJBusch]

I actually prefer the Pro Valk, and it should beat in a bit better. For some reason I like pro valks and pretty much champ everything else. Oh, Star Aviars. Not sure why... Just not a big fan of star drivers.

 

[joshuajames]

Depends on how flippy, but a Lat 64 Vision might be close.
But just beating up some DX valks might be the way to go.

 

[Okie-J]

Try a Star SL.

Try a OLF.

Beat 'em up for a couple weeks but they both get pretty sweet quick.

[DoOgSauce]

an opto vision in the high 160's is what I used.

Lighter tournament Northman.

Why not just get a Star Sidewinder? The two are very similar except the sidewinder is a little more under-stable. Both can also be found in weights down to 150gms.

 

[Oklahyzer]

Vision or Sidewinder are the best bets if you don't want to hunt down a used Valk.

Okie-J...OLF and SL??? Those are both more stable than a new Valk. lol. A light SOLS maybe, but that still won't be quite what he's looking for.

 

[Okie-J]

^ Are you laughing at me? On a Sunday?! Some people......

I've only thrown a Valk a few rds and it seemed very similar to me. Not as stable maybe but a light SL that's flexed out after a few tree hits is close and the fit in the grip is close also.

I carry a 3yr old star valk and a star roadrunner is very similar.

 

[BrotherDave]

I like the Roadrunner. Super flippy but also easy to throw straight because the turn is so smooth. Similar to a well seasoned Valk, although the Valk probably has a touch more fade even when really beat up.

Yeah, this is probably the easiest route. I'd just scrounge through a used bin or the Marketplace for another old Star Valk if it were me, that's part of the appeal of throwing Valks, they're really popular and all over the place.

 

[Hippy]

Keep it in the trash!!! That is where a valk belongs anyways!!!!!! overrated!!!

 

[Rescue]

Nothing sorry to say, but a would say a nice GL River would be close.

 

[keltik]

GL or Opto Vision I hear is a super OS disc off the shelf. You could also try an Avenger SS. I know for a fact they are flippy. You could try a DX Valk.

 

[norcaldisc]

Avenger SS or Roadrunner should make you happy.
