Flight Dynamics & Profile
The Rollo operates on official flight numbers of 5 | 6 | -4 | 1. It is a beadless, low-profile midrange with a mild dome. Featuring a highly comfortable 21.8 cm diameter and a relatively shallow 1.1 cm rim depth, it is designed to slip out of the hand smoothly on the high-angle releases required for rollers and sweeping turnovers.

What the Rollo brings to your game:
- Effortless Rollers: Thrown with moderate power on a slight anhyzer, the disc rapidly flips and hits the ground vertical, curling upright into massive, long-distance rollers.
- The "No Forehand" Fix: For players who lack a sidearm scramble shot, the Rollo is an excellent replacement. The extreme -4 turn creates sweeping, long-drifting right paths (for RHBH throws) that navigate tight corners.
- Hyzer Flips: Experienced players can throw it with a steep hyzer angle to watch it completely flip to flat and continue to ride smoothly to the right without dumping out early.
Choose Your Plastic Blend
Because the Rollo is designed to grind against the ground, selecting the right plastic blend is crucial for maximizing its lifespan and dialing in your exact flight:
- DX Rollo: The most accessible and understable variant out of the box. DX plastic offers excellent grip and beats in quickly, making it the perfect entry point for learning how to roll.
- Star Rollo & Halo Star Rollo: Offers a premium, grippy feel with enhanced durability to preserve its extreme shape over time. The Halo version adds a firmer feel and striking two-tone visuals.
- Champion Rollo & Halo Champion Rollo: Provides a slightly more stable and highly durable experience. Perfect for aggressive, controlled air turnovers or reliable roller landings that demand maximum scuff resistance.
- Proto Glow Rollo: Innova's upgraded, ultra-bright glow plastic. It adds intense low-light visibility while maintaining the Rollo’s ability to turn quickly and travel impressive distances on the ground at night.
Frequently Asked Questions About the Rollo
What is the Innova Rollo used for?
While it is primarily engineered to be the easiest roller disc on the market, it is also an incredible utility disc for air shots. Players use it for steep hyzer-flips that weave through tight woods, or as a "get out of jail" scramble disc to throw long, sweeping turnovers when they don't have a reliable forehand.
Is the Rollo good for beginners?
Yes, it is arguably one of the best midranges a beginner can own. The extreme -4 turn helps slower arm speeds keep the disc flying straight or gently turning to the right, heavily combating the natural tendency for discs to fade sharply to the left on backhand throws.
