Destroyer power with a flexible, grippy feel
The Innova GStar Destroyer combines a fast, stable distance-driver flight with the added flexibility and grip of GStar plastic. Its 12 / 5 / -1 / 3 ratings pair a touch of high-speed turn with significant glide and a strong finishing fade for players who can throw a speed-12 driver effectively.
Why choose GStar?
- Softer than traditional Star: GStar adds flexibility for players who prefer a more yielding feel in the hand.
- Enhanced grip: A useful alternative when firmer plastics feel uncomfortable.
- Cold-weather comfort: GStar's flexibility and grip make it particularly useful for chilly rounds, while retaining a similar flexible feel in warmer conditions.
- Star-level durability: The blend offers Star durability with added flexibility and an opaque, pearlescent finish.
Who should throw it?
The Destroyer is a power-focused option for experienced backhand and sidearm throwers, not a beginner's first distance driver. Innova describes it as a faster Wraith with more high- and low-speed stability. It can serve as a headwind option, but wind strength, disc weight, and release still influence the flight.
On an open tee during a cool-weather round, choose this version when you want the Destroyer's distance role without a firm plastic feel. Start with a smooth release and leave room for its fading finish. For a right-hand backhand throw, fade moves left as the disc slows; reverse that direction for a left-hand backhand.
Choose GStar for grip and flexibility, not an automatic distance gain or a guaranteed stability difference from every other Destroyer. If slower drivers currently carry farther for you, they may be the better distance choice until your throwing speed develops.
