Innova Shark Disc Review

The Innova Shark is a classic, point-and-shoot midrange that flies straight with a gentle, reliable finish. With a neutral 0 turn and modest 2 fade, it rewards clean releases and smooth power. It’s an easy recommendation for newer players learning line control and for experienced arms who want predictable midrange accuracy from the tee to the circle.

Quick Flight Numbers

Why Throw It

• Neutral-stable flight: turn 0 resists burning over while fade 2 gives a soft, trustworthy finish that lands near your aim point.
• Distance control made simple: Speed 4 and Glide 4 keep power requirements moderate and help you hit consistent 200–280 ft midrange lines.
• Line-holding confidence: throw it flat for straight shots, a touch of hyzer for gentle fade, or light anhyzer for slow pan and straighten.
• Woods-ready: the Shark’s predictable finish and moderate glide make it ideal for standstills and low ceilings where precision matters.
• Forehand-friendly feel: a comfortable rim for touchy, straight forehands without excessive wobble or dump.

Who It Fits

• Beginners: Easy, straight flights with a mild finish teach clean angles without demanding high power.
• Intermediate: A workhorse mid for shaping fair, parkable approaches and reliable tee shots in the woods.
• Advanced: Dependable control piece for powered-down gaps, straight forehands, and wind-cheating hyzers compared to flippy mids.

Shot Ideas

• Flat release, point-and-shoot: leverage the 0 turn for straight flights that finish gently left (RHBH) without big skips.
• Soft hyzer control: start it on slight hyzer to accentuate the fade 2 and land on-angle for predictable ground play.
• Touch forehand: the neutral stability holds a clean release; keep it smooth to avoid forcing extra turn.
• Low-ceiling standstill: Speed 4/Glide 4 get you forward carry without excessive rise; aim flat and trust the late fade.
• Drift-and-settle anhyzer: add a modest anhyzer; the fade 2 helps it pan then ease back to flat for gentle landings.
