    Been playing for about a year now and have just begun to discover the benefits of ultra lightweight distance drivers.  Throwing a 136 g Destroyer for a couple of weeks and still getting the hang of it.  This particular disc dumps pretty sharply at the end; maybe that's due to my noodle arm, but I don't have that problem with a lightweight Wraith or Katana.

    I've often wondered if Innova named the plastic "Star" just so they could call the disc the "Star Destroyer" (and may The Force be with you).  :-)  But I digress.  I picked up two Factory Second Destroyers, a Blizzard at 156g and a Star at 170g.

    The Star Destroyer is a good disc but a bit much for my "noodle arms" except on downhills and into the wind.  So I'm working with the Blizzard Destroyer a lot more.  It's a good disc with nice glide and the expected fade.  It's consistently just a bit behind my Blizz Boss and right with my Archon, but that only means I'm at the limit of my throwing range when I get to above-11-speed discs, not that one is better than the other.  Power throwers and pros might find differences that cause them to prefer one over the other (distance, control), but for me it's six of one and half a dozen of the other.  Smaller hands might prefer the slightly less thick rim of the Destroyer.

    For non-power-throwers like me, a lightweight Destroyer is fun to "grip and rip" (grip firmly when you throw it, too!), and I'm aspiring to work into the capability of making the Star Destroyer work for me.  That might be next season, though.

    Edited to add:  It's "next season"... for my forehand flick, anyway.  Either I just did things exceptionally right on the course today, or the Destroyer lives up to it's billing as the best-distance forehand flick disc Innova makes.  I was stunned at the distance I was getting with just a wrist flick (no real effort to put my weight into it).  I commend the Destroyer to your attention if you are a forehand thrower or want to learn to be one.
