Innova DX Stingray 4 | 5 | -3 | 1
If you find yourself pinched on the fairway and need a miracle turnover shot to save par, the DX Stingray is exactly what you want in your hand. As a legendary mold in Innova's lineup, this understable classic fills a vital utility slot among your midranges. It doesn't require massive arm speed to get it to turn; you can throw it with smooth touch and watch it float gently to the right (for a right-handed backhand) without stalling out. From beginner-friendly straight shots to advanced shot-shaping and finesse rollers, the Stingray is a reliable workhorse when you need the disc to do the turning for you.
Flight Numbers
- Speed: 4
- Glide: 5
- Turn: -3
- Fade: 1
The Stingray delivers:
- Pronounced understability that guarantees it will turn and hold the line
- Massive glide that carries the disc forward with minimal effort
- Out-of-the-box roller potential for players with faster arm speeds
It excels at:
- Smooth, long turnover shots that gracefully ride the anhyzer angle
- Dead-straight tunnel shots for newer players with lower arm speeds
- Standstill scramble approaches when you have no room for a full run-up
Shallow Profile in Grippy DX Plastic
One of the main reasons the Stingray has stayed in players' bags for decades is its notoriously shallow rim. If you have smaller hands or just hate the feel of deep, bulky midranges, the Stingray offers a super clean, low-profile grip that pops out of the hand perfectly. Molded in Innova's classic DX plastic, it provides exceptional grip right off the shelf, no matter the weather. Plus, as the DX plastic beats in from hitting trees at league night, your Stingray will become even more understable, unlocking effortless roller lines and extreme turnover shots.
How the Stingray Fits in the Innova Lineup
- Innova Mako3: If you love the glide of the Stingray but need a disc that flies dead straight without turning over, the 5-speed Mako3 is the perfect neutral complement.
- Innova DX Roc: Every bag needs balance. While the Stingray handles all your right-turning finesse shots, the legendary DX Roc covers your stable, reliable fading lines up the middle.
- Discraft Sol: A very popular understable mid. If you used to throw a Sol or a Meteor and want to transition to an Innova bag, the Stingray perfectly fills that exact same touch-turnover slot without needing to link outside the brand.
