About Innova Katana
A high-speed turning driver for sweeping distance lines, especially with room to shape the flight. Its speed 13 rating places it in the distance-driver range, where a committed throw is needed to reveal the intended flight. A glide rating of 5 gives it room to carry through the middle of the flight when matched to a suitable throwing speed. The -3 turn rating makes release angle especially important for turnovers and hyzer-flips, while the 3 fade rating describes the finish as the disc slows.
Flight and fit
A pronounced turning tendency makes it a candidate for hyzer-flips, turnovers and roller lines when thrown cleanly. The substantial fade favors committed hyzers, returning flex lines and shots where a strong finish is useful.
This is a high-speed disc. It needs sufficient throwing speed to show its intended turn and glide; a slower driver can be a better choice if it fades early for you.
Innova lists Champion Katana at 13 / 5 / -2 / 3; its base mold rating is 13 / 5 / -3 / 3.

Choose an in-stock plastic above, then compare the listed photo, weight and price in the individual-disc inventory. Tour Series, prototype and special-edition labels identify the particular release; they do not guarantee a universal change in flight.
Flight ratings are guidelines. Plastic, weight, wear, release angle, throwing speed and wind can change the result. Turn and fade directions are described for right-hand backhand throws and reverse for left-hand backhand or right-hand forehand throws.
