Flight Numbers & Performance
With official flight numbers of 9 | 4 | -2 | 2, the Valkyrie features a comfortable rim size that is easy to grip and control for all hand sizes. Because it is a 9-speed, it doesn't require elite arm strength to get up to speed. The moderate high-speed turn (-2) paired with a predictable low-speed finish (2) creates beautiful, pushing S-curve flights.

How the Proto Glow Valkyrie fits your game:
- First Distance Driver: It is the perfect transition disc when moving up from midranges or fairways, offering easy distance and a predictable finish.
- Hyzer Flips: Thrown on a slight hyzer, it flips up to flat easily for laser-straight tunnel shots through tight woods.
- Turnover Shots: When thrown flat with power, it will hold a long, gradual right-turning line (for RHBH throws) before gently flattening out.
- Night Golf: The intense brightness of the Proto Glow plastic makes it incredibly easy to track your drives and find your disc in the dark.
The Proto Glow Plastic Advantage
Innova’s Proto Glow is a massive upgrade over their traditional glow blends. It features a significantly brighter and much longer-lasting photoluminescent pigment, ensuring your disc stays visible for multiple holes on a single UV charge. Structurally, Proto Glow feels very similar to premium Star plastic, offering an excellent, tacky grip and high-end durability that will season slowly into a beautifully workable driver.
