Innova Sidewinder – Flight Chart
The Innova Sidewinder is an understable control driver built for effortless distance and shot shaping. With flight numbers of 9 | 5 | -3 | 1, it hyzer-flips to long, drifting lines, carves touch turnovers, and finishes with a modest, reliable fade. Popular plastics include Star, Champion, GStar, and DX, with occasional special runs.
Beginner Lines: Easy Distance, Gentle Finish
Newer players will see straight-to-turning flights with noticeable glide. A light hyzer often flips to flat and rides forward before a soft finish—great confidence disc for first long drives.
Intermediate Shot Map
At 275–350 ft power, expect consistent hyzer-flips, late-turn fairway rides, and controllable turnovers that hold their angle. Excellent in tailwinds and woods when placement matters.
Advanced Shaping and Utility
Experienced arms can stand it up from hyzer for long S-curves, force gentle drift on tight gaps, or lean into angle for rollers that stand and ride. Champion runs trend a touch more stable for higher power.
Forehand Touch and Control
As a finesse forehand, the Sidewinder flips easily from slight hyzer and tracks straight with minimal dump. Keep the release clean—touch over torque yields the best lines.
