Discs that fly like the Innova Champion Discs Archon
The Archon is a straight driver (11/5/-2/2). A speed-11 control-distance driver that most players find stable to slightly understable: a little high-speed turn, good glide and a soft, reliable finish. Suited to tunnel shots, straight lines and gentle S-curves, and slower arms often treat it as an easy starter distance driver. Individual runs and plastics vary, with some Champion and GStar copies flying firmer.
