Great disc that allows advanced players to experience Innova Destroyer, but requires less power to shape an S-curve.

I recently got one of the 2023 Garrett Gurthie tour series halo wraiths.  I love throwing wraiths, and I wanted something to slot in between my champion xcaliber and beat in star wraith.  This disc fits this slot perfectly!  I can trust this disc in any wind and is great for flex forehands that you can put a lot of power into and not have to worry about it flipping over. 

Summary: The artistic love of discs and the utility of distance drivers combined.

Feel: Halo Star is great as a show off or collectors piece just as much as it is a fantastic feeling plastic. The grip is standard from Star plastic, just so appealing with the color mixing. The firmness is in the middle ground for prefernce, most people love it and the others just prefer something more firm like Champion.

Flight: Star is the definition of most accurate flight rating. It follows the numbers to a t. Like all plastics though, there are slight differences from all the range of factors, Star is just the most consistent.

This disc changes drastically based on the plastic. Halo and its as beefy as a destroyer, Gstar and its a great flip up driver. Find the right plastic and most players can enjoy this disc. 

The halo wraith is an amazing disc - however it is not the disc I thought it would be. The halo plastic transforms the wraith into a very overstable disc. My old star wraith was extremely flippy but the halo wraith is very overstable. This will be very hard for beginners to use if you do not possess high arm speed. Still very comfortable and great for forehands. Very reliable disc and I will most likely use it in headwind conditions. 

I started on destroyers but was never able to get them to flip up or turn at all. Amazing what 1mm can do to a flight pattern. With a wraith, i get a perfect turn, barely flipping to get a nice distance line if thrown flat and low at 90%. If thrown with anhyzer it will hold most of the flight and then finish with dependable forward fade. If thrown on hyzer it will get a big high skip. I also hit a new max distance of 400ft this year with the wraith. After a whole season, about 7-8months of weekend golf, my halostar wraith has shown almost no signs of beating in yet. I throw both forehand and backhand, and the wraith seems to treat them exactly the same; both get just the slightest turn when thrown flat and typically fly straight for about 330ft, then begin a reliable fade with nice skips. 

There is much to be said about the Wraith, especially in Halo Star plastic. It is high speed, but slow enough to have a comfortable rim feel and it doesn't need a ton of arm to fly far. I used these for a year solid to learn the feel and over stability of Halo Star plastic. I then switched to the faster more OS Halo Star Destroyer. I am finding that I much prefer the wraith in most situations over the Destroyer. The Destroyer goes a bit further but at the cost of a sore arm after the round. The Halo Star Wraith is great for backhand and forehand power shots. They are over stable but not too over stable. The grip of the plastic is phenomenal. 

The Innova Wraith is my go-to distance driver. The rim width, speed, and general stability fits the needs of my game. There are few discs I've tried with the combination of control and distance as the Wraith, and when I'm looking to build a bag, having a driver with max distance potential and high levels of accuracy is immensely important. 
 

I would recommend the Wraith for anyone who wants to throw Destroyers (or its many clones) but doesn't have the arm, or like the hand feel of thicker rimmed drivers.
 

Star plastic is perfect for cycling, and easy to find an array of differing stability from Wraiths capable of big-turnovers to wind fighting beef. 
 

This is my favorite forehand driver, I can throw it on flat shots over 400ft and it will take the torque. It can be thrown on a touch of ani and get a bend to shape it. It also was my first ace disc, shout out to DOUBLE G making sure his name is on some great discs!

This is a great disc for all types of shots. Once they start to season the glide picks up but the thing I like the best is they do not turn over. Instead, you get a nice drift to the right (RHBH) and then a dependable fade back to the left. Great disc and much more controllable than a destroyer. Furthest shot I've had so far with a wraith (halo) is 450! Went 60 feet past the basket. Forehand or backhand, the wraith is a great disc! 

The Halo Wraith is SO GOOD! So overstable and reliable. I threw it at the OTB open in super strong headwinds, and it would go straight but NEVER TURN OVER, then fade extremely reliably. Such a good wind disc! 

Just buy the Wraith... Anyone that has thrown this disk bags it. If you're new, bag a wraith in a Star or even DX plastic and stick with it till you learn to throw it properly. This disk is such easy distance and teaches you how to throw a distance driver better than anything else. I don't suggest getting a cheat driver for new players with a high turn of -2 higher. There's just no need. If you can't throw this wraith straight 200 feet before any fade then you shouldn't be using a distance driver of any kind period. They just won't work for you. Also as I'm sure most people know even throw by pros, a faster disk like a star destroyer only goes MAYBE 50 more feet yet you loose some accuracy. The wraith is also so predictable in a great plastic like halo star which is my favorite so far.  I only have 4 distance driver in my bag, and they are all wraiths. My champion is a beef hook when I need something to fight headwinds or get big skips when it fades out. Halo Star is my best straight flyer. It goes 300 feet dead straight from wherever I release the disk almost like a hyzer flip then dumps predictably. Star is my best flippy driver for big S flights or just tailwinds. And my older DX can be thrown on hyzer, and flip late for big turnover flights that will hold all the way to the ground. 

Best part about all of this?  All my distance drivers are the same mold, and thrown almost the same, yet satisfies every shot I need. Getting a good feel for a mold so you can throw consistent is the biggest concern in disk golf by far.  Every different mold held the same way will sit in your grip with a different hyzer angle and a different nose angle. literally no one talks about this for some reason. These differences makes throwing several molds very hard within the same round. Why not just master the nose angle of one distance driver, and know the hyzer angle just by the feel of the disk. This way you throw nose down 10-20 feet of the ground the whole flight 400 feet every single time. Distance drivers have to have perfect nose angles or they loose all energy right out of the hand. You might already have the arm speed, just a crappy nose angle for a distance driver.  Master one like the WRAITH, and crush your friends :)

This disc is an amazing distance driver. Most people immediately gravitate towards the destroyer but in reality don't have the arm speed. In my opinion you shouldn't throw a destroyer unless you can push out close to 450 feet.  The wraith is just a much more useable destroyer that anyone can use. It lets amateur players get the flights that pros are getting from destroyers.

This Review is for the Halo plastic Wraith.

Is it even a Wraith?? Ok yes it's a wraith, but very unlike any wraith I have ever owned or thrown before. First of all it's one of the coolest looking discs that I have ever seen. The halo plastic looks amazing and the artwork is awesome. Second it has substantially more dome than any other wraiths that I have personally thrown. I have a star wraith (super flippy out of the box)  and 2 C-line wraiths (Somewhat flippy but predictable) and now this Halo GG Wraith ....  I feel like I ordered a cheeseburger and got a Big Mac by mistake . Having said that I love the disc, out of the box it's like my metal flake destroyer as far as the flight goes. Extremely predictable for a wraith. It's not what I expected but look forward to breaking it in. I'm thinking after some use and a couple good tree smacks it will be perfect .  It's nice to have a stable wraith , you won't outgrow this one. Having said that if you are a beginner or throw under 350 try a star wraith.

This review is purely for the Halo Star Wriath. I would give the regular Star Wraith a 5 star review.

I was so excited when I purchase the Halo Star Wraith. I see all the pros using this plastic on JoMez and thought it could for sure find a spot in my bag. I heard that this type of plastic was more overstable than the regular star plastic, which I was ok with when I bought it. 

I got my order in and the discs were beautiful, I bought 2 so that if I lost one, I still had one left over. RIght away I noticed that the discs were by far the most domey disc I have ever bought (I have bought over 30 different types of distance drivers so far). It wasn't even close, these discs looked like like literal domes. they felt a little awkward in my hand since I have never gripped something like this before. I knew forehands would be a challenge with this much dome, but oh well, maybe they fly really good.

I took them out to the course and started throwing them. They were more over stable than a regular star wraith, which I liked because I prefer throwing my wraith over a destroyer, so if it gets a little windy or I just cant risk turning a shot over, I could go to this disc. But this awkward grip that I can't get used to is impacting the accuracy of my throws and I am not getting as much distance as I would with my other over stable discs like my Panics and Destroyers.

I am going to keep bringing this disc out to the course with me and keep throwing it to see if something clicks with my game, but right now it does not do any one type of shot better than the discs I already bag, whether it is flex fore hand, regular forehand, back hand hyzer, anhyzer backhand. It just doesn't do anything better for me than the other discs I have.

I have a GG wraith purple on purple 174.6g it takes a little more than 11 speed but by far it is my best distance driver. I can consistently park shots with this disc for birdies on Par3 holes. This disc truly shines for forehand throwers but is a great backhand bomber as well if you have the form. if you don't have the full power this disc needs it still fly's well and creates a nice S that is great for getting around some obstacles. Just don't throw this high and it seems to seek out the fairway on its own.

This review is of my halo wraith 173-175g. I got a black one with some really cool swirls and a glittery black stamp. It looks mean. Also kinda flies mean too. Its pretty overstable and needs quite a bit more power than my other star wraith. Its one of my two top distance go-to drivers. They are very dependable and go where I want as long as I get my release right which is all me and not the disc. I loved the Wraith so much I discovered that the Discmania CD3 is basically the same flight without so much fade so if you love this but don't want as much low speed fade try the CD3 out too. Its basically the same. Like I said this is a great disc and the halo version is for sure coming back after flying out. It won't get away from you. Definitely recommended for those players who have intermediate power and need something that will fight back and stay predictable and dependable.

Halo Star Wraith, 173-175g.

To start, this thing looks great. Great swirls with a super cool halo design. But compared to other wraiths, this thing is BEEFY. I bag 5 wraiths, and the other four fly pretty true to the flight numbers of 11,5,-1,3, but this thing basically flies like a faster firebird. It has a super big pop top, which feels really nice if you like them, and halo star has a lot of grip in the hand. The wraith is a great disc golf beginners looking to get to a faster driver, but not in the halo star plastic. I'd recommend pro or star for a beginner. The wraith is a go-to in my bag, and will be for a long time.
