  • Speedi 3

    The first number is the speed of the disc. It can range from 1-14. Putters are rated 1-3 and are designed to function at low speeds any player can use. Mid range discs are 4-5 and require more speed when thrown to achieve their desired results. A fairway driver will be speed 6-8, these discs fly mostly straight. Discs that are speed 9 and above are classified as distance drivers. Throwing a distance driver takes a significant amount of power to get up to speed, players are rewarded with additional distance if they learn to control these discs. New players are cautioned that speed does not equal distance. Due to the difficulty of controlling higher speed discs, a beginner could find that a light weight disc with a speed of 6 or 7 could fly farther for them than a max distance driver with a speed of 13. In fact most new players should learn by throwing putters only so they can develop the proper form. After a few weeks they'll begin to get reliable results and are ready ×

  • glidei 2

    This second rating is numbered 1 – 6. Glide describes a disc’s ability to remain in flight. Discs with higher glide ratings will fly further than discs rated lower in this category. A high glide rating is good when the goal is distance, but can have the wrong effect for putts and approach shots. Sometimes overshooting the basket can be worse than not making it far enough. Low glide ratings such as 1 or 2 are popular with upshot putters because they don't fly for distance but for a little extra control. Glide is different for different kinds of discs as well. A putter with a glide of 4 will stay airborne much longer than distance drivers with a glide of 4 ×

  • Turni 0

    Third in Innova’s flight rating system is turn. Turn is rated from 1 to -5?, with -5 being the most understable. The lower the numer, the more striking turn will result. A newer, slower-throwing disc golfer using an understable disc with a ‘high’ negative turn rating will enjoy great distance, as the disc isn’t going to fade as quickly. Also, players whose farthest throw is 200 feet or less probably won’t notice any turn in the flightpath. Once a player gets more speed and power, they will see their understable discs start turning to the right at the beginning of the flight before fading to the left at the end. Discs rated -4 or -5 are popularly used for rollover or roller throws by experienced players. Some discs have 0 turn which means that they'll start to fade when they run out of speed during the flight and at no point will they turn. It's important to carry at least one disc with a high turn rating in your bag for rounds. ×

  • Fadei 2

    This last rating category ranges from 0 to 5; with a disc rated 0 being the straightest finishing, while a disc rated 5 fading the most during the last portion of the flight. Even discs rated lowest in turn will still ‘fade’ as the disc slows at the end of the flight. A disc with a higher fade rating is useful for a hole with a dogleg. Straight finishing discs are great for control, discs with little fade are normal. If you're a Right-hand backhand thrower you'll find that almost every disc wants to fade to the left at the end of your flight. Discs with a 4 or 5 fade rating are excellent in heavy winds. They sacrifice a little of the distance but make sure that the disc won't do anything unexpected. Discs with a low fade are more susceptible to being affected by the wind. ×

Product Description

The Eveliina Salonen Star Aviar3 from Innova is a flat topped approach disc golf disc. The stamp on this disc features swans, Eveliina's favorite animal. The swan is graceful and elegant in flight and fierce in a fight. While this disc is classified as a putt and approach disc, it's definitely meant for throwing your upshots with. This run of discs is slightly softer in the hand than regular star plastic.

The flight path of the Aviar3 is straight with lower glide and a short finish. This disc is perfect for parking your approach shots from 50-200 feet away. It's excellent for the forehand or backhand, and can be used by anybody. It doesn't have much glide, so the fade on the end of the flight is relatively short. This is a disc you'll see pros on Team Innova throwing when they've got shorter technical shots. Throw the Aviar3 directly at the target and let it hold that straight flying line for most of the flight before checking up inside the circle. It's easy to handle so people who throw a lower speed won't have to worry about it dumping over like many other approach discs. You can throw it fast and hard knowing that it will hold your line.

Star plastic is a premium blend from Innova. It's well known for how grippy it feels, how durable it is, and how it's consistent. It will take a long time to beat in and it's not as overstable as Champion plastic right out of the box. This blend is a little bit softer so players can expect a little extra distance from the glide that this Aviar3 will have.

Not only does this disc have excellent grip, a cool stamp, and will help your short game. It's also the Tour Series disc for Eveliina Salonen. Some of the money you spend on this disc makes it way back to her to support her as she tours the world playing disc golf. You get an excellent disc with a distinctive stamp, you also help out a fellow disc golfer. Snag one of these discs today and get more comfortable with your approaches.
