ABOUT THESE VERY RARE LIGHWEIGHT DISCS:
Waaaay back in 2002, when Innova still held a (completely bogus) patent for the "Bevelled Edge Flying Disc" (expired in 2003), and before the advent of stamping Flight Numbers on discs, Innova specially manufactured a range of golf discs for competition in Japan, where the maximum weight for discs was just 150 grams.
These now highly collectable PFN (Pre-Flight Numbers) discs were made slightly over the 150g limit, and were not suitable for export to Japan.
Not only are these genuine New Old Stock, and PFN, they also carry the Innova Patent number on the underside of the flight plate.
And so we can know for sure that these brand new discs are at least 22 years old in 2025!
What Innova say: 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.
Innova Sidewinder (Star) LIGHTWEIGHT PFN! PATENTED!
These are part of disc golfing history, with New-Old Stock PFN and PATENTED Innova discs being about as common rockinghorse poop.
If you are a collector of any kind, then you will want one of these, and maybe two!
Sidewinder was the inspiration for the RPM Pekapeka, and a very famous disc. For power players Sidewinder is an out-of-the-box roller disc, or a sky-anhyzer disc which won't fade back.
For intermediates, Sidewinder is an understable disc which will fly fairly straight at your full power, with maybe a little turn.
Speed-9 makes this an easy to control driver, with accurate releases.Flight Rating: 9 5 -3 1
