The Spider is a small-diameter, predictable midrange rated 5/3/0/1, a versatile, low-speed disc that works for hyzer, straight and turnover throws. It is a controllable approach and midrange tool that responds cleanly to release angle. Its predictability is the appeal: thrown nose-up it will turn left, and nose-down it turns right, giving players precise control over shot shape, while its low-speed, stable flight makes it a reliable approach disc. The small diameter suits players who prefer a compact mid. It is a beadless mid. It is now discontinued, an early-2000s midrange succeeded by Innova's newer mold lineup. Approved in 2001, the Spider was a versatile control midrange during Innova's early-2000s era. Older runs turn up secondhand, where the small-diameter, angle-responsive flight remains its calling card.

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.
