This disc in I-Blend was the first disc I ever crested 400ft with, and is something a lot of people could benefit from having in their bag. I switched to S-Blend for the durability factor because my I-Blend beat in to like a -4/1 and could no longer stay in the air no matter the hyzer. Still a bomber disc for all levels of player in my opinion

My favorite bomber!!! Extremely workable and versatile disc. Super stoked to hear there will be another run of the swirly S-blend in the near future! ?????? 

This disc is amazing! My go to stable to understable distance driver. Just the right amount of turn and fade to be consistent. I don't have to worry too much about overturning it or a huge amount of fade. Probably my max distance driver. I love the combination of this disc and an emperor. The emperor provides a straighter flight and is more torque resistant, while the pharaoh offers a further and more shapeable flight. This disc never comes out of my bag. Replaced my shryke and I definitely prefer this disc.

I have always found a place in my bag for this disc in one plastic or another. Not the most comfortable for forehands but it's a bomber no matter how you throw. Plastic type is personal preference but I own most of them now lol I am a power thrower but I can use this for stand up straight shots to flex lines over 400ft. Solid disc I carry two in my bag. This was one of the first in the line up and it's still amazing.

I've been using this disc a few weeks now and it has easily become my go to for long distance shots. It reminds me of my Shryke but a little more predictable, and it seems to glide for days. The swirly S-Blend plastic feels great in the hand and allows me to get a good grip on the disc. I only use this disc mainly forehand so if you have a decent flick or a strong backhand I'd recommend checking this disc out. 

170 Swirly S-Blend - super durable and super pretty and super grippy.

This disc just goes and glides and glides and glides.

My only gripe, and this is probably my arm speed, but after the right turn (RHBH) it seems to just dump. But other than that, it is a great disc. 

It fits well in the hand and the edge and rim are perfect for this speed. 

This mold fits in the hand nicely for a great grip. I've thrown this in all sorts of wind and am impressed with how well it handles a head wind. Can release the disc with confidence that it is going to get out quick and hold the line you put it on until it dumps at the end.

Pharoahs Phly Phar...

In general, the Pharoah is an understable bomber disc. Great for hyzer flips and distance turnover shots. It's probably too fast for a total beginner but perfect for someone just starting to branch out with high speed discs. For reference, at the time of writing this I've only thrown over 400 ft a handful of times. This is one of 3 molds (shryke, ballista, pharoah)  that have a chance of reaching that far for me.  

The swirly s blend Pharoahs (run 19) are a touch more stable than last year's metal flake glow c-blend. The MF glow is more flat and I think of it as a slightly more stable and predictable Shryke (something like 13 5 -1 1). It will turn but it will usually fight back. The swirly s, however, has a more pop top dome to it and is more OS and glidey.

If there is no wind or tailwind and I need distance plus a stable finish, this is what I'm reaching for as it tends to carry more distance than my destroyer or ballista pro. That is not to say it won't turn. It definitely will, especially for a big arm or into a headwind.  I would say the flight numbers are fairly accurate on this one. I can flex this on a very steep anhyzer line and it will fight its way to a flat landing, whereas the MF glow might be a roller on the same angle. 

For me, these swirly s blend are like a more manageable version of a stable distance driver, at least while they are fresh and new, I suspect they'll season in to fly more US, mine are about a month old now, thrown almost every day, and still stable. If you want a flippy one off the shelf, I would suggest going with I-blend. If you've tried others in the past and found them to be too understable, I'd suggest trying out the swirly s blend. 

This is my new go to distance driver for both backhand and forehand. If you have a decent arm this disc will find a place in your bag. I had typically drove destroyers and wanted something a little straighter and this is it. I only have it in the swirly s plastic and it's a pretty solid plastic both durability and grip. Already got another on the way!

175g Swirly S-Blend Pharaoh

Probably fun for some people, but it requires a VERY smooth throw to get the most out of it.  I'm not sure how best to describe it, but with more overstable distance drivers, you have to put full force on the disc and really rip it.  This disc feels more like a 'sail' in the air, and you have to trust that the disc will naturally use its glide and speed to go far.

Again the disc might be great for many people, but the shape of the rim is like the Shryke in my opinion: it does not inspire confidence in the hand and I have no trust in the flight.  My best replacement for this disc would be a Wraith simply because the wing feels better in hand and it makes me feel better when I walk up to the tee.  It also provides similar distance.

I have the s blend special edition, and it is more os than I would have imagined. Amazing glide, this disc may beat in nicely. Not making my bag right now. That said, I want to try the mold in the swirly s blend. If you have a big arm this disc may give you unexpected long distance.

I recommend anyone with decent arm speed try this one out .

Great disc.  If you're looking for something with a degree of stability greater than a shryke or a destiny, but less that a destroyer - something that will fly straight that you won't have to worry about turning over early or fading out like a meathook, this is a disc to consider.  A mainstay in the bag.

Got a couple mildly swirly pink S lines with the alien triple foil stamp and these guys can do some work for backhand distance shots. I've only thrown them in a field and in a few holes in the early going but they seem to be great long distance line shapers. The run I have isn't the domiest I've seen it it also is not one of the very flat runs either has some glide but also just a bit of fade and a bit of turn under power as well. 
 

I threw some nice hyzers in the 350-380 range and then tried some flat shots and it unleashed the beast. My friend was by his car 425 away and based on the hyzer shots I didn't think I could reach him. I was wrong and now have to wax his car after it hit the rear bumper at 425. Probably would have got a bit further on the skip also.

Seems to rely a bit on speed rather than glide as you don't see that gently turning floaty flight from it, but it will hold a line well, including forced turn overs and it's not bad for overhand shots as well if you don't mind the big rim. 
At this speed it's not for everyone, but it's certainly fun to throw and can go quite far. The stamp on mine is great and reminds me a bit of the Iron Maiden Powerslave album cover which makes it even cooler to me.

This disc is amazing. It can handle insane amounts of backhand speed. Run 10 may be the most overstable but for me it still has a very nice reliable flex to it. I liked it so much after throwing my first one, I ordered 4 more. 

This is my go to distance driver when I don't have the left to right room for a full s-curve helix flight. Because of the tremendous glide, you can throw it hard and low and still get impressive distance. This thing really does fly fast and straight with the appropriate arm speed and release angle. As I was updating my bag from the circa 2000 competition era, I found this was the driver that was easiest to learn and get accustomed to quickly. I would recommend it for anyone who is graduating to a higher speed driver. 

The Pharaoh is a pretty nice disc. The Pharaoh has a pretty wide rim at 2.3cm but it manages to feel workable in the hand I think it treads the line of being too big well. This disc in swirly s plastic had a relatively flat profile but still some pop to it. My Pharaoh is about 171g from the 7th run (supposedly the more stable one).

The Pharaoh is very straight flying while also being pretty fast. I found this disc has a pretty similar stability to my star wraith with a touch less fade which makes it pretty workable out of the box. I found myself able to flip this up to flat from a hyzer angle and it would hold very straight even under a pretty decent power throw which is nice. This disc on a flat line really goes far for me and holds a pretty straight flight with a slight fade at the end. This disc on anhyzer doesn't really fight out much for me but goes pretty far. The Rim on this disc forehand wasn't bad but it's a pretty fast disc to flick and it's not quite overstable enough to be thrown without a touch of hyzer. I think the best feature to this disc is the glide as I found this disc once up to speed really glides nicely which got me pretty good distance.

This disc handles most mild wind conditions well as I found myself pretty easily able to judge what it would do. I think the tailwind performance is definitely this discs strong suit with that big glide.

This disc while pretty neutral at my armspeed is likely too fast for a beginner player.

Overall I really dig the Pharaoh. I think they hit the sweet spot with the stability on this disc and the feel overall is definitely workable. Its probably the furthest flying disc in their line up and I think those who like the shryke, sheriff, etc but find them too unpredictable would benefit from trying this mold.

First off, I own a run 1, 2, 4 and 5 Pharaohs.  The run 1 is one of the best distance drivers I have ever owned.  It started out stable (trusted into a slight headwind) over a year ago and now it still bombs but requires a little bit of a hyzer release.  I have been looking for a similar disc for a long time and the only thing that came close was a somewhat beat in Ballista Pro. I have only throw this run 5 Pharaoh a few times but this is the closest to the run 1 Pharaoh I think they have produced.  It looks just like the run 1 profile wise and yes it is flat. To me it initially feels maybe a touch slower and a touch more stable but as it beats in it will probably become exactly what the flight numbers say. Feels like a more stable Shyrke, as it should.    

Amazing Disc. I have thrown MVP Octanes for a few years and Recently DD3s and this discs has started kicking those out the bag. Easy to throw and goes far. I have a 168 that goes straight with slight s turn and fades back nice. Nice glide as well. If your looking for extra distance I'd recommend the Pharoah. Just ordered a few more.

The Pharaoh immediately went in the bag and quickly became my favorite for max distance drives.  Destroyers were my previous "go to's" and the Shryke if I needed a turn.  To me the Pharaoh (Swirly S Blend Run 2 175g) is a mix of those and is the longest disc in my bag.  It has a very nice flip up if thrown with hyzer and glides forever, thrown flat it pulls right (RHBH) and fades softly, and will hold anhyzer almost all the way.  NOT a head wind disc.  

My Proto Pharaoh is a bit more overstable and maybe a little less glide, still doesn't like a stiff headwind though.  Has a nice s flight when thrown flat or will hold a nice long hyzer.

Number 3 is my Metal Flake Glow which is the most overstable.  Thrown into a slight head wind, it will still fight out.  Seem to really be able to rip on this blend with no worries of turning and burning.  Probably the most similar to a Destroyer for those that are comparing the two.

This swirly s-blend pharaoh is a fantastic disc. Out of the box they are a straight to overstable max distance driver. Once beat in they become a great hyzer flip or anhyzer disc. The only problem is if you throw it too hard it can dump right when they are beat in but could be a good roller disc at that point.

I will have to say, I read all the hype and dreamed it could be true, I soooo desired a more stable shryke, But this is not the current run, I am in colorado and due to alititude everyting is naturally more OS here, well I had 3 175 pharoahs and each one of them flipped right over w ease way more than all my shrykes,  I really wanted this to be a beat in destroyer or a more stable shryke, but Nope. I have no use for a less stable shryke.  plastic and disc feel amazing, but flight is not desired. 

This disc bombs.  It's one of my furthest flying drivers as a player who maxes out around 325 on a good throw.  I know most say not to get 13 speed discs if you are a newer player, but this flies as accurately but far further for me than something like an FD, Explorer, Undertaker, etc.  I would highly recommend it for anyone comfortable throwing the wider rimmed discs. 

The only non-Discraft disc that I use, this disc goes far... I was lucky enough to get a first run Swirly S-Blend and I use it backhand (I primarily throw forehand for distance). Not too OS and has a great flight path. Definitely recommend this disc.

This thing can bomb.  Put it on a very slight hyzer and put everything you have into it.  It will go as far as any other disc you can put in your bag. 

This disc is EASILY the furthest flying disc in bag! It kicked my Ballistas out of my bag! Tons of glide with very predictable stability. Feels absoulely amazing in the hand. Have never had more people ask what disc that was that i just threw! I have nicknamed the disc the FAR-OH! 

I love the swirly pharaoh. It is noticeably more stable than the other plastics and is a perfect long distance driver for advanced to pro players. the 6 glide is amazing and keeps the disc in the air going forward for ever. The plastic itself has a nice grippy feel.

great disc for all arm speeds
slower arm speeds will use this as a reliably overstable distance driver with good glide, average arm speeds will be able to get a small amount of turn out of this for max distance flex shots, and faster arm speeds will get a good deal of turn and may use this for turnovers or rollers

Not the worst disc I've ever thrown, but certainly not my favorite. The disc was slightly more overstable than I expected, but that wasn't a big problem. You can definitely get some distance with it. However, the swirly s plastic simply isn't as comparable to Innova's Star plastic as I'd hoped. I'll be sticking with my destroyer.

First off, this disc looks and feels great!  The Swirly S-blend plastic feels nice and smooth in the hand and has just the right amount of grip to it.  Plus, it looks amazing!  On top of that, this disc can really rule the skies and gets some crazy distance when thrown right.  Also, it doesn't seem to hard to handle for those noodle arm players like me.  I can flick this disc and get a nice S-flight with it, which results in some of my best and farthest throws I've ever got.  It can turn over on you if you are not careful with the angle of release, but if you let it go nice and level, then it should get a nice slow turn followed by a nice dependable, smooth fade.  Pick one up and rule the course like a Pharaoh!

(Pharaoh S-Blend Garrett Gurthie Infinite stamp 172g.)
I've been throwing mostly MVP, and was looking for super long straight driver that won't flip over or fade to much.
As soon as I threw the Pharaoh I knew I had found what my bag was missing.
I can just lace into it and it will fade slightly but stay straight and finish straight with hardly any fade. I've Udisc my distance anywhere from 380ft.- 460ft with this disc.
So reliable and can hold an anhyzer line for a long time if released at the right angle and speed. Just a super fun disc to bomb with!
I just bought a max weight S-Blend that was marked 175g but my scale put it at 177g. I also bought a I-blend to see the difference.
I'll revise my review as soon as I compare all three!

This is my go-to distance driver always. I own the pharoah in the prototype mold, l-blend, swirly s blend, and another plastic unreleased which is a bit more overstable. 

I've never been asked "dude what was that disc?" as many times as when I've thrown the pharoah. It' flies like a beat destroyer out of the box. It just GOES. It's comfortable in the hand, and can be thrown in multiple plastics to get different amounts of stability. The l-blend is more understable like a shryke. 

I waited a while to post this so I can get a really good grasp of how it flies, and I can do anything I want with it. big spike hyzer, hyzer flip to flat and carries, big anhyzer lines with enough angle, anything. I love this disc.

This is my first Infinite Discs brand disc and boy am I glad I got it. It immediately had a spot in my  bag as my stable distance driver.  It will soar. I throw it just under flat and it is a laser beam. It doesn’t have a lot of turn for me, but it does have enough to carve a beautiful line through the fairway, pulling to the right just a bit before finishing with a slight fade as the speed slows. Almost 100% of its flight is forward/penetrating and will really go when thrown with enough power. It is almost a point and shoot distance driver for me and the glide is great. It does not need much room left and right to get a lot of distance. It is not my longest driver, but it is very useful when I need to be straight and long. 

Very high glide disc that throws as expected. Gains height very easily as expected from a 6 glide. Predictable flight with a good feeling rim 

Edit: The pharoah is my most used driver. I carry the Cblend (175g) for more stable shots and some wind resistance. My most used one is a 168 gram swirly s blend. The C blends are incredibly domey. Almost too domey. I prefer the S blend. It isn't beating in quickly either although I don't throw this disc in the woods much so it hasn't been abused. The I blend even in heavier weights is less stable. I throw my S blend and C blend around 380-400 feet which is about 20 feet beyond any similar driver. I'd recommend I blend for folks that are trying to reach 350 and just haven't been able to. I did have a 171g C blend which was flippier than the S blends, so I'm not sure if they are actually more stable or the weight of the one I use is making it hold up a little better in the wind. I've also had great accuracy with these. They have just a little more stability compared to the Discmania DDx with a little more turn and fade and they have held up a little better as I have gained distance. If you're overpowering a DDx or similar, try the Pharoah. Also similar flight to Lat64 Ballista, but I'm getting more distance with the Pharoah. Not only are they long, but they're accurate. I can place mine where I want it for the most part. The best driver I have tried on the market for the almost 400' thrower that I am.

First take: I have a 164g pharoah that I bought to be a bomber. It is. I'd compare the Pharoah to the Shyrke. Fairly similar. Without having them in the same weight I can't say for sure. At 164g, it flies like my seasoned 171 gram star Tern, but it flies further. It's one of my longest discs. 

I really enjoy this disc. This is my go-to distance driver when my Wraiths are not enough. This disc requires a bit of sauce to get it to perform correctly so I would not suggest it for beginners. Although I am a beginner myself (playing for about one year), I have a big arm (or so I have been told) and do not have a problem putting the heat on it.

This disc handles the forehand and backhand with equal enthusiasm. This is the first disc I threw over 400 feet. I like the feel of the Swirly S-Blend in the hand. When thrown on a slight hyzer (RHBH) it will always fade back to the left and I trust it to do just that.

When I really pour the heat on a flick, I have to release it with a little bit of hyzer and I watch it flip up with a gentle turn as it comes back with a moderate fade.

My max average backhand and forehand distance is 420-430.

1st run: I've thrown a quantity of 4 first run pharaohs. Backhand, they were straight to fade thrown flat to a little hzyer. As they broke in you add a little hyzer and they stand up and turn a little then ALWAYS fade back, unless its a headwind. Forehand, once broken in you add a little hyzer and they get a nice big turn and fade back nicely. Overall the first run was a good overall distance driver that was reliable. All had a small dome to flat. Good grippy plastic that was not hard or soft. All mine were max weight. 

2nd run: only thrown one max weight. plastic is slightly slipperier and has way more dome. Still comfy in the hand. This disc is actually understable. I get some crazy distance with this disc, but I have to give it the right amount of hyzer and height and that's not always easy. I'm not sure if all the second runs are all like this, so take this with a grain of salt.

Just got to throw my 2 175G.  second run pharaohs the other day and they are great.  The plastic is stiff.  I've got some old AJ destroyers with a similar feeling plastic.  On the first throw I released them both on a slight hyzer, they stood up, drifted to the right and came back nicely to the left.  These discs are exactly what I expected.  They fly similar to my old AJ destroyers but they are just a bit less stable.  They seemed to handle a head wind decently too.  They turned over a bit but still fought back with a soft fade.  These discs made it right into the bag for all of my max distance shots.

2nd run Swirly S Blend Pharaoh at 162 grams

PROS:

Good glide and distance possibilities

CONS:

Plastic is slick

The flight plate of mine was uneven with a slight dip/valley (not terrible, but noticeable as soon as I opened the packaging)

Wing got dinged/chunked easily (since mine is only 162 grams the disc is reminiscent of Innova's Starlite plastic which is prone to damage)

I was slightly disappointed with my initial response to the disc. It just doesn't "fit" in my hand like I prefer drivers to feel. Kind of reminded me of an Innova Colossus or Ape. Nonetheless, I was able to get fairly good distance with it. Low power throws stay fairly straight with minimal fade while full power throws turned over for the full flight. Throwing a Prodigy Air D4 (155 grams) side-by-side today produced nearly identical results. My suggestion would be to go with a Pharaoh in a weight heavier than 162 grams if you throw 325-360 feet. 

My review is based on the one disc I purchased. I believe if I had ordered a heavier one the flight plate and wing damage issues would not have occurred, thus my rating could possibly be skewed on this particular disc at this particular weight.

The Pharaoh is an excellent distance disc. It perfectly fills the slot between shryke and destroyer. I get more distance with pharaohs than with any other disc. The first run pharaohs are very flat, the second run pharaohs have more of a dome and feel a bit different in the hand.

The great comparison to the Skryke! I have 5 Shrykes, in 4 different plastics. Each one flys different, even the 2 I have in Star plastic have different flights due to the color and run. I bought an Infinite Discs Pharaoh on a whim, and have started using it as a max distance driver, and boy am I happy! This thing when thrown flat has a nice soft turn, straightens out, and fades back softly; the perfect flex for accurate max distance. I came back to buy a few more in this run. Not good for a headwind, as it isn't overstable, but the disc is stable. If you don't throw it with enough speed, it will fly straight. 

Like others have said the Pharaoh is very similar to the Shryke just less under stable.  It's a good distance driver for those with lower arm speeds as it turns fairly easily. The fade is reliable but soft and minimal. Hopefully they'll be able to keep the mold consistent and release it in more plastics. I think this would be a great first distance driver for for beginner and for everyone else it's a more stable Shryke(YAY!).

The Infinite Discs Pharaoh is a really intriguing new disc. I've heard tale that it is a Shryke that is cooled differently, and that makes it more overstable. It's hard for me to say that I agree that the Pharaoh is more overstable. What I will say though, is that they feel very similar in the hand. 

For my use, the Pharaoh is pretty decently understable. It's actually what I expected a Shryke to be when I got one. That said this disc does have an impressive amount of glide, and it is probably the disc in my bag that I can get the most distance out of. It is just a touch finicky for me. It is going to stay in my back fo sure for max distance shots and tailwind drives. Overall a good disc and I think people will get a lot of mileage out of this baby! Great job Infinite!

My usual distance drivers are either Defenders or Destroyers, but I find them a little too overstable for max distance drives. I've been throwing Sheriffs for max distance, but they tend to turn over a bit too much for me. The Pharoah is exactly what I've been wanting in a distance driver!

This disc is very reliable and consistent for me, not to mention it's going further than any of my other discs. The Pharoah loves to hold whatever line it's thrown on when thrown hard, so it's really easy to manipulate what kind of shot you want to throw with it. It can hold a hyzer with incredible glide, you can flip it up to flat for a direct line, or you can easily throw it on a big anny if you need to carve around some trees on a big shot. For me it flies just as well on forehand shots as it does for backhand.  

After the first day out with the Pharoah, I ordered another when I got home. A couple days later, I ordered two more. I think anyone throwing a consistent 360'+ will love this disc. Compliments to Infinite Discs for such a great mold. Would love to see a champ/c-line version of this disc in the future. 

Wow Infinite is putting out a great line of discs. This is now my go to max control distance driver that has booted out my DDxs and my more stable Shrykes. This disc feels pretty much identical to the Shryke buuut has just a little extra stability (even over a champion Shryke), which is why I love this disc! For players with experienced arm speed this will be a reliable disc! I think the original Infinite numbers are definitely accurate but I decided to personally adjust mine in a way that reflects that this disc does have a little bit of turn but also some extra fade for a bomber of a disc. I highly suggest giving the Pharaoh a try as it is reliable! 

All I can say is that the Pharaoh is an impressive disc! I believe this will be integrated into my bag whenever I need it. In a nutshell, the Pharaoh is a fast disc that gets incredible distance but is stable enough to handle big arms. I was testing the Pharaoh in about 4400' elevation with little to no wind.

In the hand, the Pharaoh has a wide rim, clearly indicating that it is a 13 speed. Normally I don't like to throw 13 speed discs because I have tiny little hands, but the Pharaoh has a lower profile so my hand can still grip it comfortably. In the air, the Pharaoh is amazing! When I throw it with about 80% power, I can get a nice S-Turn with a good hard fade at the end about 400-425 feet. When I really ripped on the Pharaoh (100% power), I flipped it a few times, but the stability and glide would keep it in the air for a 400-425 foot anhyzer shot that finished flat with no fade. When I gave it enough air underneath, I was easily reaching 450-475 when I could get the disc to fade. Since I don't have as much power as the average professional, this is impressive distance both for me and for this disc.

If you've read any of my other reviews you know I've been a huge fan of Destroyers. I have thrown probably 50 discs similar and still can't find a disc that I can throw as consistently as the Destroyer. However, Destroyers are generally really stable out of the box, and then break in to become these wonderfully understable bombers. When times get tough (like now, 2018) I get really low on understable destroyers and only have overstable ones. Because of this dilemma, I'm constantly looking for an out-of-the-box bomber disc that I don't have to worry about losing. The Pharaoh is definitely that disc. Whenever I'm low on understable Destroyers, the Pharaoh will be the Go-to for me. It is fast and understable with a reliable fade.

In conclusion, I would say that the Pharaoh would be a perfect disc to introduce an amateur to 13 speeds with. It showcases the hard fade of most super fast discs, but unlike discs like the Katana and Vulcan, the Pharaoh is consistent in the amount of stability it brings. You can trust that you will "Pharaoh" this disc really far! (Sorry, lame joke that I stole from the PDGA).

Flight Numbers: 13 | 6 | -1 | 2

Plastic: Soft, grippy, star-like plastic (Innova tooling tells me it probably is star plastic ??)

Feel: the rim is shallow much like the Shryke or Sheriff. I don't generally like a shallow rim for backhand throws but with the soft, grippy plastic I can get a good grip on this disc nonetheless.

I threw this about 40 feet past a basket sitting at 410 feet elevated about 10 feet higher than teepad. I put ot on an annhyzer line well left of the target. Initially I thought it was not going to come out of that line but it started to flatten out then it faded. I ended about 20 feet right of the basket.

Next throw was into a headwind on 470 foot pin location. I gave it a little hyzer and started it left of basket again. It popped up, turned slightly, and faded out. I got it about 435 feet out but with the fade I ended well left of basket. 

After the easy distance I saw this disc cover I'm excited to work it in to more throws. I think it could handle a FH throw with a hyzer release for good distance. 

Overall, this disc fills a spot in my bag.

The Pharoah is a great disc for intermediate players and above. This thing bombs!!! It is a perfectly seasoned destroyer for an Innova Comparison. The Pharoah has made my bag so far and has helped my game. I am looking forward to learning more about this disc as I throw it.

I first received a 170g Prototype.  I was told that this thing is supposed to be like the Innova Shryke mold so I was skeptical because I use to love the Shryke molds until I had to replace one after losing one and every new run is more understable then the numbers say. 

Let me just say wow.  This thing goes sooo far. I can usually put a destroyer flat out to 425 - 450 ish.  The Pharaoh was easily adding another 30 - 50 ft.  Easily.  The Swilry S-Blend plastic feels great in the hand as I am a huge Star plastic or S-Line plastic from Innova and Discmania guy, my drivers are Star or S-line. 

I would recommend this disc for any player who can throw over 350 consistently.  It will give you that extra distance I know you want.  I find myself hardly throwing my Swirly Star Destroyers anymore because this disc is just that solid.

Great Disc Infinite! I cant wait to see what comes out in the future.

Received a max weight Pharaoh 3 days before my first tournament. Didn't have a chance to throw it until a quick practice round the morning of the tournament. I ended up throwing the disc more and more during the 3 rounds and by the end it was my primary driver.  I loved the disc so much that I bought another one as a backup.

As Aaron mentioned below any bad throw I had was completely on me and not the disc. The disc would hold a nice hyzer line and would bomb with the right amount of flex on it. 

I strongly suggest to try this disc before they are gone!

The Pharaoh has quickly found a place in my bag.  From the first time I threw it i felt that this disc has the more glide than any other disc I've thrown.  If thrown with a lot of power you will get a very nice turn out of it, but it will always give a strong finish to the left.  I can also throw this disc on big anhyser line and it will hold the whole way.  If you can throw high speed driver over 375 ft, pick one of these up and watch your disc fly an extra 25 ft out of the box.  

The Pharaoh is a bomber! This disc can handle a lot of power without being too understable. When thrown hard with a slight hyzer out of the hand the Pharaoh slowly rises to flat, drifts right forever, then comes back with a reliable but not overbearing fade. I don't think the Pharaoh is beginner friendly because it needs to be thrown hard to achieve the full flight potential. The only flaw I have for this disc is that it cannot handle a headwind, not even a slight headwind. With that being said, in a tailwind this disc is perfect. Infinite Discs hit their first distance driver out of the park. 

My new go-to distance driver. I was skeptical when first hearing about this disc. My thoughts were that it would be annoyingly understabl (as I normally throw enforcers as my distance drivers). I. Was. WRONG! 

The Pharaoh has a wide rim, similar to a destroyer and slightly wider than a trespass or enforcer, but it is not too wide (for my hand anyway). The grip of the Swirly S-blend is perfect. It's exactly what you'd expect. The disc has a slight dome to it and a comfortable feel in the hand. 

First flight: I tore into this disc on my first throw. I was in awe. It flew nearly dead straight for 375-385ft and then faded left with tons of glide for another 30-40 feet. 

After some use: this disc is slightly beat in as it's one of my go-to discs off the tee. On a hyzer line it will stand up ever so slightly and glide for days. I can get consistent "S" curves on flat or slight anhyzer release and a consistent fade at the end. 

I throw this more than my enforcers and trespasses now because I get the same consistent flight path and distance (if not farther) with less offort. The Pharaoh is here to stay.

I have been consistently throwing my 175g Pharaoh for about a month now and this disc is staying in my bag. I recently lost my beat in destroyers and the Pharaoh, straight out of the box, flies very similar to those destroyers.

The Pharaoh can handle a lot of power without dumping right and turning over. I can throw this disc hard on a slight hyzer angle and get the disc to turn and then finish on a good strong left fade. When throwing with a tail wind, I can mostly release the disc on a flat line and get the same flight as mentioned above. In a head wind, I need to release the disc on more of a hyzer angle, but I still get a very similar flight.

I throw with a lot of power so it is nice to know that this disc can handle players with high arm speeds. My biggest surprise about this disc is the glide. This disc flies really really far. If you are looking for a reliable far throwing disc, then this disc is definitely worth trying out. 

This disc is an amazing long flier that can hold the release angle for an extended period of time given a strong grip before coming back with a very expected and solid fade. It sits in the hand perfectly and releases on point going the extra distance even when thrown at sub-power speeds. This disc will very likely replace the DD Defender in my bag and I intend to use it much in windy conditions when the DD Trespass is not quite up to the task. Another application would be a long hyzer shot where it stands up slightly only to fade well at the end, but not too soon in order to provide a max distance full hyzer flight. I expect it to become a go to disc before I know it. For beginners it will be very overstable and probably not a good choice for long distance drives.

First thoughts: Rim was definitely wide.  I bit wider than I prefer for my hands.  Plastic felt great, it was firm, but not too firm with a bit of give, but not too much give.

The more I have thrown this disc the more I have grown to love it.  I bought a 164 and this thing is fast and long. I'm not a fan of really fast discs, but this one is an exception.  I never quite clicked with the Shryke and this is a better version of that disc.  I'd say it's more consistent is the biggest reason I prefer it.  Perfect distance driver for those with 325'-400' power.

As a member of Team Infinite, I was send a beautiful purple-ish swirly S-Blend Pharaoh. What I've noticed with both of the S-Lines from Infinite Discs is that it tends to be more on the more flexible side of the spectrum. I wouldn't say it's as flexible as G-Star, but it's definitely not stiff. 

It feels really great in the hand. I don't know it quite feels like a 13 speed to me, as the App or Boss is a little big for my grip. However, this seemed to fit quite nicely. 

I throw on a slight hyzer shot. This disc flipped up ever so slightly and rode before fading out. It was a very nice flying disc. I also ripped it on a few high powered forehands. It would flip up, turn ever so slightly, and then crash back down. I am very impressed by this disc so far. If I had to compare it to something, it flew for me like a Dynamic Disc Trespass, or slightly faster Wraith, or perhaps a DDx. All and all, this disc will be making a lot of people happy. Give it a shot, and I don't think you'll be dissapointed.

As usual, I took the Pharaoh out and threw it with other discs I have with speeds 12 - 14 and that have a turn + fade of 1.  I like to do this how well the flight numbers compare to other discs (which, admittedly could be off themselves - not mentioning any names <cough> Westside <cough>).  Also, some of this discs used for comparison may be in my bag so I want to see if the new disc might be swapped in.  As far as reviews go, it might give other people some perspective on the flight of the disc.

The Pharaoh is more stable than my Wave, Bolt, and Destiny.  Not surprising on the second two since they have a turn of -2.  I am able to get more distance with my Destiny but less accuracy.  It does have a reportedly higher speed and glide so, again, maybe not surprising.

I didn't end up picking anything more stable than the Pharaoh for today's test so I don't have any examples to help create brackets around it.  It was cold and rainy/snowy so I didn't grab more and go back to the field.  My apologies.

The Pharaoh flew pretty much identical to my BioFuzion Sheriff so that might help pin it down for people.  They have identical flight numbers so they are either both right or both wrong in the same way.  The Sheriff is .1 cm wider of a disc and the Pharaoh has a .1 cm wider rim.  The Pharaoh has a slightly lower profile than the Sheriff, which some people like (including me) and others don't.

Bag worthiness: I'm replacing my Sheriff with the Pharaoh because of the lower profile and because of an admitted bias toward Infinite Discs.  =)

When I got the InfiniteDiscs email about the Pharaoh, I stopped by the warehouse after work to grab one. But with the Utah Weather this year, I had to wait for a good day for the disc's maiden voyage. So after about a week of waiting I finally got to try it out.

I absolutely love the pharaoh! Mine is  175g and it crushes. For me it was similar to my Shryke, but it was a little more consistent and more stable (My Shrykes are pretty understable right now). In a slight headwind, the pharaoh fought the straight line, barely turned, and then had a decent fade. I was throwing between 375-400ft with about 90% power. 

With the slightly wider rim, it feels really comfortable and familiar in my hands, which promotes a confident release for my throw.

I am trying to have a review that would have more pros and cons, but honestly the pharaoh,  after the initial round of throwing, has found a slot in my bag, and I can't think of anything negative for now, at least as it applies to my game. I plan on getting a few more once they are released with the stamp on it.

It's not too often that a disc feels that good brand new off the shelf.  Well done.

Infinite Discs lineup is looking pretty strong. The Exodus was a great start and set expectations pretty high; both the Pharaoh and Chariot met those expectations! My first impression of the Pharaoh was it felt great in the hand: good plastic (not too stiff or gummy), and a great rim size. The disc has a nice gradual dome to it as well.

My ratings for the Pharaoh would be 12 5 -2 2.5

I was excited to throw the Pharaoh because a friend said it flew "like a beat Destroyer". I would say that is a very good description. This thing absolutely bombs. I am only a couple hundred feet above sea level, so this disc gave me some nice turn, even being brand new. It didn't turn and burn at all, just a nice gentle high speed flip, and it definitely had the stability to flatten out and fade. 

Thrown flat it gives me a beautiful S flight and max distance. On a hyzer it pops up to flat, but is easy to put on a hard enough angle so it holds hyzer the entire way. Throwing this disc on an anhyzer was probably the most fun for me. It holds the anny great, before slowly flattening and fading out. I also had a lot of fun throwing rollers with it - I need a little more fieldwork with the roller, but my initial impression is that it goes far. It stands up pretty quick, but at the right angle can hold a cut forever before finishing. 

The Pharaoh was great for forehanding too. It has a slightly shallow rim, which I prefer for forehands. Similar to the backhands, it has enough flip to go far, but enough to stability to finish beautifully. 

I am so excited to see Infinite coming out with such a solid lineup right out of the gate. Super excited to see these come out stock, I think they are going to be great additions to the bag. 

Great high-speed driver that lots of skill levels can throw. My Pharaoh had a pretty big pop top and was on the lighter side (166g), and it bombs!

It's a lot like a Shryke, but mine is domier. Great disc for long hyzer-flip shots.

For my arm speed, it holds up ok in a headwind, but it's not going to be your "go-to" headwind disc. Tailwind? Different story. This disc will crush with a tailwind. Definitely recommend checking one out.

I threw the prototype at 172 grams.  To me it feels a lot like my Star Destroyer with a little less turn.  The disc feels great in hand and flew very consistently for me.  It was pretty windy when I took it out so maybe I would get more turn on it on a calm day.  I will take reliability in wind any day though.  The disc had a lot of glide and faded consistently at the end.  Based on my throws I would give it 13/5/-.5/2.

Pharaohs fly wicked faaaaaahr kid.

Pardon my Boston dialect- but the point stands: this disc is a bomber for sure. With a super wide rim and decent dome this disc is made to fly! It is a nice balance of speed and glide, and turn and fade. It's a nice disc that will work well for both slower and more powerful arms alike. 

Thrown flat, you can get the disc to slide to your arm side for a controlled high speed turn, then fight it's way back to center or more. I tend to a pretty net neutral flight out of the Pharaoh with some forward skip at the end. Definitely my further flier I've thrown. I am a 330-350 foot thrower with control. I'm getting 360-380 with this disc. 

Where this disc REALLY shines is long turn overs. The -1 turn and 2 fade allows the disc to hold the turn for a long ways without completely turning over, and the fade doesn't pull it out of that turn till late. I was getting 350ish on my turn overs, which is a REAL nice distance for someone without a big flick. 

The flight of this disc is 5/5 stars, only place it loses a star is in the hand feel. I have smaller hands, and the 2.3 cm rim is JUST to wide for me to grip comfortably. 

It is in my bag currently, but ultimately it will take more time to test to see if it sticks around.

Plastic feels great for starters. I was happy with my first impression of the pharaoh. The glide really stands out for me. Seemed to handle wind pretty good and when you put some power in it, it has great distance. I would rate this 13, 4.7, -1.5, 2. This thing can bomb for sure. Good for all levels. Newer players would use it as a stable driver in the beginning until you get some miles on it. Intermediate and up players will enjoy big distance right out of the box. No break in needed. Controllable distance. Controllable speed. Good glide. Definitely recommend giving this a try. 

I received a prototype Pharaoh in my team pack a couple of weeks ago, but just finally got the chance to test out my swirly beauty this past weekend. I'll start off my saying this blend of swirly S-Blend feels better than the swirly stuff coming out right now.. It's a bit firmer but still super grippy. It reminds me of the really nice Star plastic Innova was coming out with around 2015.

Okay, now for the flight... This disc BOMBS. Like, stupid far with minimal effort. I was able to throw this at around 70% with a good bit of hyzer and still had the disc pop up, turn, and fade at the end (RHBH). If you have a decent amount of power, this disc will be a great tailwind or complete crush on a wide open hole with no wind. It's also a great hyzer flip to flat forehand disc for tough lines in the woods. The Pharaoh also has a crazy amount of glide.

I give this disc the flight numbers of: 13 6 -2 2.. The rim is wider than a Destroyer (12) and flies noticeably faster out of the hand.. It also has much more glide (5) and turn (-1) than a Destroyer. And lastly, the fade is significantly less than a newer Star Destroyer (3). In all, a great disc that will make a lot of people's bags! Be sure to pick one up ASAP before they're all gone :) 

The Pharaoh was a surprise to me when I threw it the first time. In the hand the feel is pretty good, it has a nice rim that fits well in my hand. I thought it felt a lot like a sheriff the first time I grabbed it. I have got to throw this in a lot of wind and have been pleasantly surprised by the results even into a direct headwind.

What stood out to me from the first throw was the ease to get the disc to glide for a long ways. I was able to get the disc to easily fly at my max distance with both my backhand as well as my forehand. I would like to get some more throws on a much calmer day to compare it to some of my other discs, but what I experienced in the wind was promising.

Into a headwind I was able to throw the Pharaoh with a slight hyzer which had it flip up and turn over a little bit before fighting out of it and fading back in to the left. What surprised me the most about the flight was its ability to come back in its flight, I was expecting it to keep going right but it fought out of it very well. Even when thrown into a headwind with the right hyzer on it the disc just went forever after popping up to flat.

One of the best throws I had with the disc was what every person dreams of with a tailwind coming over my back shoulder. With that I was able to put the disc out a little wider than normal but it flew well beyond my target with how much glide the disc had one it. I was very impressed with the flight of it on the initial tests and cannot wait for some better weather to be able to throw this disc some more

This disc feels great in the hand. I would say its flight numbers are 13/5/-2/2 for my in South Carolina. It can handle a lot of power backhand. It struggled slightly forehand but is very manageable with the right amount of angle and power control.

This disc is very interesting. The Pharaoh is like a slightly less stable Wraith that goes longer. A few players I was with couldn't believe how much further it was going past my normal drivers. I still have to get used to the flip (at elevation) before adding it to my bag.

I imagine this disc will be best suited for advanced and intermediate players that want 30 extra feet on your drives. 

Infinite's First Distance Driver!

When I got my prototype Pharaoh, I was very excited to try it. Though I dont use distance drivers all that much, this seemed like it had great potential. I must say it lives up to my expectations.

The disc in the hand feels great. I do have fingers on the small side, but had no troubles gripping the wide rim. The flight plate is perfect in the Swirly S-Blend: tacky but not sticky, grippable but not gummy. The disc feels great gripped in a power grip or forehand grip.

Flightwise, the Pharaoh reminds me of a Star Wraith with slightly more glide and certainly more carry. Both backhand and forehand (full disclosure: my forehand has a lot of torque) saw the Pharaoh get some turn before fighting back with a fade that is neither overly biting nor overly forward penetrating. As such, I was able to really dial in the accuracy on long throws, particularly when throwing with just a bit of hyzer to get a perfect distance hyzer-flip. Forehands are a bit trickier: I did turn and burn the Pharaoh a few times, especially with any semblance of headwind. Skilled forehanders will likely not have this issue. Though the Pharaoh is of higher-speed than I usually use, it is a solid distance driver that many players will find a use for...

...that said, this is NOT a beginner friendly disc like the Exodus (Infinite Discs other driver.) The Pharaoh requires good snap and arm speed to really utilize its potential. Intermediate skill levels and up for this driver, my disc loving friends!

I've thrown three different weights of Pharaoh, and all three have a very different stability. The first one I threw was 175g, and this one had absolutely no high speed turn and a lot of fade for me when thrown in neutral wind. In 167g, the Pharaoh has a nice stable/overstable flight for me where I can get a little bit of turn out of it and some excellent distance. This is the primary driver I through all weekend at the Las Vegas challenge. It absolutely bombed for me and gave me some great drives. Feel and flight wise I find it very similar to my Westside Destiny. Lastly I have a 154g that is pretty flippy and I can absolutely bomb as long as I'm not throwing it into a headwind. I'd give the light weight Pharaoh a turn rating of -3, and fade of 2. I am able to push this light weight one out to close to 400 feet with a hyzer flip throw. 

Overall the Pharaoh is a very solid distance driver that provides maximum distance for players with with my arm speed. At 2.3cm, the rim is wide, but it is still comfortable and doesn't feel too big.  

This disc is a BOMBER! Right off I'd compare it to a Shryke with a tough more fade, which is what I always wish the Shryke had, since it flies so far, but sometimes was too flippy. The Pharaoh will flip up, float nicely to the right, and then always fade at the end of the flight. I could through big anny shots and it'll always fight out and come back for some big distance.

This is that dreamy 13 speed bomber with the perfect S shaped flight path. The rim is a little big for some people, but I throw Katana's normally, so I'm used to it. I will be bagging this in place of the Katana, cause it's just a little easier to flip up for me.

The lighter the weight, the more flippy it gets. When you throw a 150 class Pharaoh, it'll definitely flip over more easily- so I'd say the harder you throw, the more weight you'll want. 

The plastic feels nice, it's a big stiffer than the regular S-Blend plastic, but that's okay, it still bombs. I do like more flexy plastics quite often though (lots of times I'm throwing in a cold climate). I think if this were in Gummy Champ plastic, that would be incredible. 

I whip out the Pharaoh any time I need to throw 350-400+, anything less and I'm using the Exodus. 

The Infinite Pharaoh is a fantastic distance driver for a variety of arm speeds and skill levels. I tested a swirly s-blend 175g Pharaoh in moderate (10-15 mph) winds. My go-to driver for distance is an Innova Boss, and I found the Pharaoh to fly very similar to my more seasoned Boss. For me, it seemed to fit between a Boss and a Shryke. 

When thrown hard with a touch of hyzer, the Pharaoh would pop up to flat and drift to the right before fading out at the end, which made for a great distance driver. Consistently, this disc would flip and turn without ever flipping completely over, which allowed me to trust its high speed stability. Before throwing this disc, there was nothing that seemed to catch up to the boss in terms of distance. However, after throwing the Pharaoh, this disc was going just as far right out of the box!

For a sidearm throw, the Pharaoh is a little more touchy. It requires a bit more attention to angle of release and amount of power. When thrown with a touch of hyzer, the Pharaoh would pop up and turn a good amount before having a late fade. When thrown with about 70% power, this disc would pop up and right straight for about 380' before beginning to fade out. While this might not become my primary sidearm distance disc, I think the Pharaoh could be useful for sidearm shots that require a bit of touch or for a long distance standstill sidearm shot.

All in all, the Pharaoh is a great distance driver for someone with a decent amount of power. For lower arm speeds, this disc could be a good straight to hyzer distance driver. For higher arm speeds, this disc will be a max distance driver. This disc is fast and will take a huge bite off of any fairway! 

Just received my Pharoah and Chariot in the mail yesterday, so I played a "quick 36" today and threw them on any reasonable hole... and a couple of unreasonable ones, and I have to say, this disc is MONEY!

It flies similar to a trespass, but a little more high speed stable, and a little less low speed stable...  I don't know how that's even physically possible.  It definitely will hold some turn, but I never worried about flipping it, and it's fade was pretty gentle.  Even better, it has a ton of glide, resulting in more distance.  One throw I definitely threw too low, but the glide held it up just a few feet off the ground for a good 350', including a nice hyzery skip at the end.  To break it down, it's like a crazy long/fast fairway, or, it flies like how I THOUGHT the aftermath was going to and how the sheriff should have.

None of the holes were super conducive to Max D, so I'm not real sure how far I can crush it, but it handled 350ish with no problem. Parked a steeply uphill 320' hole twice, so I think 400+ would be a cinch.    

I'm definitely putting the Pharoah straight in my bag.  It's not ousting my beloved Trespass yet, but it will be a great partner for it... or give it a run for its money.

One final thought - forehand.  Threw exactly one, because I didn't know it would handle it.  It definitely turned left quite a bit, but fought out and finished right.  It was a good long crush, but ended well outside the circle as I would have needed more fade than it got.

In short - bomber disc.  Goes far. Crush backhand.  Finesse forehand (or weaker arm forehand).  Feels great. The end.

This disc will BOMB.

The feel, This disc feels great, the swirly S-blend is similar to the reg s blend, just swirly! The profile of the disc is reminiscent of a Destroyer or Tresspass. The s-blend plastic is a like slightly gummy star plastic. Between g star and regular star, it's closer to star.

This disc will get me easy distance. When thrown (rhbh) flat and hard I can get pretty S shots with a net straight shot. But where it shines is hyzer flip bombs. It performed well in breezy conditions, nothing too finicky. I felt comfortable throwing into a little wind knowing I could adjust for it. It's almost exactly the same as a Tresspass in my opinion, I did find myself getting a little more distance (~20-30ft) on average. Great glide on this disc, maybe even 6 glide?

On a flick, this disc is great. It doesn't require a ton of power and handles the extra torque efficiently. The profile in the hand allowed for clean easy releases and the slightly gummy plastic helped the stable out any wobble out my hand. I was able to push these out to 400ft on a flick with not a lot of accuracy, but maybe 375ish with accuracy and confidence.

This disc will likely season well and become a great wide open bomber or a tailwind bomber. I did not try any rollers with it.

I would love to see this disc with a little more HSS!


 

I have this swirly prototype plastic at 167.  The description of this disc is pretty spot on.  For me so far, throwing for a half hour across a football field with some significant wind, it's definitely a high speed bomber.  I would say 13 5 -1 2 as advertised.  It has plenty of glide and gets out quick.  It's stable enough to rip into and will handle a headwind with the correct angle release.  It won't be your go to headwind fighter by any means, it will flip and if thrown too flat or hard probably stay that way.  For tailwind just give it a slight anny release and watch it work.  I would compare it to a shryke, ballista, anything you may call a well seasoned destoyer out of the box.  

I threw a 172g Pharaoh in Swirly S-Blend plastic, which on this run felt a little bit stiffer than the regular S-Blend of the first run Exodus. The disc felt great and has a wide rim, as a high-speed driver, but it isn't the max rim width, so it is still manageable for most throwers. It releases smoothly and flies wonderfully. It did have an undeniable end fade, though not as pronounced as a Destroyer. I'd say that the flight pattern was quite similar to my DDX drivers, which I love.

The Pharaoh in this weight range (170's) can certainly handle torque and can be thrown with power for maximum distance. I also tried a 157g Pharaoh that was light enough to have some bubbles in the rim plastic. That lighter version was almost a different disc with a much more understable release (flippy). The lightweight Pharaoh would be great as an introductory distance driver for new player who are working to build arm speed. 

This is a potential bomber. Just be selective of your disc weight and go lighter for easier distance. If you have experience, then get a higher weight and rip it!
