Distance Driver · Stable vs Overstable
The Innova Katana (13/5/-3/+3) and Westside Discs King (14/5/-1.5/+3) are both distance drivers, and they fly similarly, with only minor differences.
The King is the faster disc (speed 14 vs 13), needing a touch more arm speed, while the Katana comes up to speed at a lower power level. The King is the more overstable of the two (stability +1.5 vs 0), so it fights wind and finishes harder to the left, while the Katana flies straighter or turns more. Estimated maximum distance is about 139 m for the Katana versus 146 m for the King.
Choose the King when you need to fight wind, throw forehand, or want a dependable finishing hook. Reach for the Katana when you want a straighter line, an easier turnover, or more help at a lower arm speed.
