See all Sidewinders
The Sidewinder is a fast flyer with a predictable high speed turn and lots of glide. This disc can add distance to anyone's drive, but is especially useful for those with less power. The Sidewinder is our best disc for long turnover shots and long distance rollers. Even disc golfers who have never had much success throwing a roller shot, will be amazed at the results they can achieve with the Sidewinder.
Plastic: Gstar - See all Gstar Discs
GStar is a blend of Innova's Star plastic that adds flexibility and even more grip. GStar is opaque like Star, but features a pearlescent sheen. Their allure is only surpassed by their beautiful flight. GStar discs have a smooth, gradual transition in flight and the same durability as the Star line. You can think of it as a grippier and flexier cousin of the Stars. Those are real words right? GStar is the best disc plastic for winter play. When the temperature drops and the air dries out it becomes more difficult to hold on to those discs. You end up with slip outs and an early release unless you start changing up your form. With the GStar plastic which is grippier and flexier you can maintain that same grip you had on your Stars even with your cold dry hands. Now you won't have to change up your form as much and you can practice or compete all winter long. The flexible plastic also keeps cold discs from cracking or breaking. I've never hit a tree myself but I've heard it can be hard on a cold disc.

Innova Champion I-Dye Sidewinder - 168g - Translucent Dyed
I got the Sidewinder after reading about its value as a roller disc. I'm newer to disc golf and expected the disc to be rather understable based on the flight numbers. After I graduated up to drivers I started throwing the Sidewinder and found it to be very neutral. When throwing float forehands, the disc held straight before dumping with more fade than I expected. When thrown on anhyzer or hyzer, the disc holds the lines well. This is great for beginners learning to throw distance drivers for the first time.
I like the disc, but it is definitely a beginner disc. It does get some good distance, but it does not work as well with a flick shot. I would say it is more of a speed 8. It is a good disc though and I would possibly buy another if I lost it.
Good disc when I need a bit more turn in my drive, pretty easy to get used to.
This was the first distance driver I ever threw and it remains a staple in my bag. A go to for hyzerflips and rollers.
