Distance for All

In the past few years, the Mamba has taken off as one of Innova’s most popular Drivers. It unlocks full-flight distance in a way few other discs can and offers utility for everyone from beginners to pros.

Why the Mamba Belongs in Every Bag

Flight Numbers: 11 / 6 / -5 / 1

For new players, the Mamba is one of the easiest ways to step into wide-rimmed Distance Drivers. The first time you see yourself throw a full S-curve is the moment a lot of us fall in love with the game — this is the disc that will give you that experience. It teaches hyzer flips, angle awareness, and how glide can do the heavy lifting. Pick one up in a lighter weight for even easier turn and distance.

For experienced players with slower arms, this is where the Mamba really shines. With good angle control, a Mamba will fly as far as a bomber’s stable driver — just with more glide and less force. It rewards touch, knowing your release angles, and clean form, letting you keep up with bigger arms through finesse. It’s also the understable Driver trusted by 5x World Champion Juliana Korver, a strong reminder that the Mamba isn’t just a “beginner disc,” but a smart distance choice for even the best players.

Power throwers shouldn’t sleep on the Mamba either. It’s a tool in your bag for specific situations the same way a super-overstable disc can be. It’s a reliable escape disc when you need something to turn and keep turning. It can give you extra distance on an awkward standstill when you aren’t going to get your normal release speed. And it’s an instant backhand roller that stands up fast and carries far.

Across all skill levels, the Mamba offers utility. And the Mamba’s range of available weights and materials makes it easy to tune your disc choice to your desired flight. Lighter weights help you get it up to speed more easily; max weights add control. DX beats in for more turn and Halo Star adds a touch more stability. The Mamba can evolve with your game — start with lighter DX and eventually settle into heavier Halo Star once you’ve found your feel.
