Innova Lion (DX)
The Innova Lion in DX plastic delivers this stable midrange in Innova’s most affordable and grippy baseline blend. DX plastic offers excellent hand feel with a tacky surface that makes clean releases easy, along with a quick seasoning cycle that helps the Lion slowly become more workable over time. With its beaded rim, moderate dome, and traditional midrange profile, the DX Lion provides a confident, consistent feel for backhand throwers of all skill levels.
Flight Numbers — 5 / 4 / 0 / 2
In DX plastic, the Lion flies straight with dependable stability and a firm, late fade. Fresh out of the box, it handles torque well and resists turning even on full-power midrange shots. As it beats in, the DX Lion gradually opens up for straighter flights, gentle hyzer flips, and controlled turnovers while maintaining its reliable finishing fade.
