About Innova Tern
A turning distance driver with generous glide for long, sweeping shot shapes. Its speed 12 rating places it in the distance-driver range, where a committed throw is needed to reveal the intended flight. The glide 6 rating points toward sustained carry, so leave room for the disc to keep moving when planning a landing zone. The -3 turn rating makes release angle especially important for turnovers and hyzer-flips, while the 2 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 moderate fade provides a returning finish after the faster part of the flight.
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 and Glow Champion Tern at 12 / 6 / -2 / 2; the base mold rating shown above is 12 / 6 / -3 / 2.

Choose your plastic and weight
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.
