Innova Ape (DX)
The Innova Ape in DX plastic brings this high-speed, ultra-overstable distance driver into Innova’s grippiest and most affordable blend. DX plastic provides excellent tack and a clean release, making it easier to get a solid hold on the Ape’s wide rim. While DX beats in faster than premium plastics, it remains reliably overstable for a long time—starting out as a true power disc and gradually seasoning into a more workable, high-speed bomber.
Flight Profile — 13 / 5 / -1 / 4
Out of the box, the DX Ape is very overstable, resisting turn even under high torque and finishing with a heavy, predictable fade. As it wears in, it becomes slightly more workable while still maintaining confidence against wind. The added grip of DX plastic makes it a great choice for players who want maximum control on forehand or backhand power shots.
