Innova Gator (DX)
The Innova Gator in DX plastic offers the grippy, affordable baseline feel that makes it easy to control this famously overstable midrange. DX plastic provides excellent touch and a clean release, giving players a confident hold on short approaches and utility shots. As it seasons, the disc becomes slightly straighter while still keeping the dependable fade that defines the Gator.
Flight Profile – 5 / 2 / 0 / 3
Out of the box, the DX Gator is reliably overstable with low glide and a strong finish. It holds up well to power, resists unwanted turn, and drops predictably on angle. As the plastic wears in, it becomes a touch more workable, offering smoother hyzer-flips and straighter lines before settling into its familiar fade.

The DX Gator is perfect for players who want an inexpensive entry into a reliable overstable midrange. Beginners benefit from the easy grip and predictable fade, while experienced throwers enjoy how it breaks in to cover multiple shot shapes over time.
When to Reach for the Gator
Use the DX Gator when you need a midrange that won’t turn—whether you’re throwing into a headwind, shaping a forced hyzer, or relying on a forehand that demands torque resistance. It fills the role of a control-first, fade-heavy mid that becomes more versatile as it wears.
