{"title":"Innova Animal","description":"\u003ch2\u003eThe Complete Innova Animal Collection Hub\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Animal is a short range, stable approach disc for backhands and forehands, and it's also a good putter in the wind and inside the circle. It has very little glide, so it lands where you aim it instead of floating past the basket, and the Thumtrac rim gives you a secure grip on every throw. This hub has every Animal we stock.

The 1 glide is the big thing here. It doesn't float, so it won't sail past the basket or skip away from the green, and it's less affected by wind. The 0 turn and 1 fade mean it holds whatever angle you put it on and finishes with a gentle fade. It has Innova's Thumtrac rim, a small groove on the top of the rim that gives your thumb a secure, repeatable grip on backhands and forehands. It's 21.2 cm across and 2.1 cm tall with a 1.3 cm rim depth and a 1.0 cm rim, and it was PDGA approved on September 29, 2020.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; margin-top: 15px; margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f2f2f2;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003eSpeed\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003eGlide\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003eTurn\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003eFade\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003e2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003e0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat this collection brings to your game:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStopping Power:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low glide keeps it from sailing past the target.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWind Control:\u003c\/strong\u003e It gets pushed around less in the wind.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrip:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Thumtrac rim gives you the same release every time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eChoose the Right Animal Plastic\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach plastic offers a different feel:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/innova-star-animal\" title=\"Innova Star Animal Product Page\"\u003eStar Animal\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e - Grippy and durable, Innova's premium Star plastic holds its flight for a long time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow the Animal Plays on the Course\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReach for the Animal on short approaches, windy putts, downhill shots and upshots that need to stop.
