Wraiths are $9 in standard pro plastic. Did you pick up a fundraiser champion Wraith? I'll bet those are more overstable.

The wraith.

It solidifies it. Innova steals all their names from the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

Next up. the Golemn

I threw the wraith tonight. It is much longer than the avenger. Even faster. Very over-stable at the end, though. The disc had a lot more control than I imagined. Slightly more stable than a new 175 Champion Orc. I probably don't throw far enough to truly benefit from it's potential, but it's still a great disc. Now when the 150 Wraith comes out....

You can see how accurately you can throw it in the garbage bin.

The Wraith. Is it not the best disc on the market?

150 would be purely for tailwind distance.

Hehe. Have you thrown it? What didn't you like?

I don't usually get hyped about new discs. The Z Avenger is cool. It also is a fast disc, but the flight pattern is different. Not as much D for me. The Z Avenger is holds a gradual hook through its flight, while the wraith flips but is overstable at the end. I would say the Wraith is like an overstable version of the valkyrie (or the flash).

The new pro wraith is helping my game because I can get the same distance as more understable plastic only with more control because the disc gets where it's going faster and is less affected by the wind.

What I really want to see is what the big guns can do with this one. You should try it Eric!

I agree withe the faster part, but the wind will reek havic on it if thrown into a head wind. In a slight tailwind or right to left wind it will flat out fly further than any other disc! That is from my throwning and watching Shan throw his.
BOOMER SOONER!!

Yes, I have thrown it, I try all the new discs that come out. I have a both a max weight pro and CFR, And it is one of innova's better discs, But you asked if it was the best disc on the market and I say no, not even close. And the major thing I don't like is the plastic. innova's plastic is way too flimsy, beat's up easily, and is unreliable. Second, but part of the previous, is the domes on innova's discs. They're like friggin snapple caps, put some pressure on it and it will pop in and out, which is is part of the reason they are unreliable. You want speed? Get a Flick, much faster, You want distance? Get a Crush, or a Flash. And yes I can throw an Z- Avenger farther too. <-That one replaced my X-pred.

Innova- Hell no! We won't throw! Hell no! We won't throw!

P.S. The best Disc on the market is the Buzzz.
