The Makani is a light, glidey, understable disc rated 2/7/-2/0, a high-glide mold designed to ride the breeze and land where you throw it. Its name is Hawaiian for great wind, and it is built as much for casual play and form development as for the course. Its remarkable glide and clean, true flight make it a versatile crossover disc: Innova pitches it for playing catch, Ultimate and disc golf alike, and its low weight and forgiving dynamics help develop throwing form. That high glide and light build mean it floats and turns easily rather than fading. It is a beadless disc. It is a fun, versatile, form-building disc rather than a stable, competitive-distance mid. Approved in 2016, the Makani is one of Innova's versatile, glide-forward crossover discs. Its light weight and big glide are the whole design, suited to casual play and learning clean form.

Try Discs adds up reviews from six disc golf stores, so you see what players think across stores, not just at one shop. Reviews are great for spotting proven, popular discs. Take the details with a grain of salt, though: runs, plastics and skill level all change how a disc flies, so your experience may vary.
