Infinite Infinite Discs - Glyph

[GripEnemy]

Just saw this mold was approved a couple weeks ago, has anyone managed to feel or throw one? Appears to be the Rhyno/Tank top (BB Aviar/P&A Aviar bottoms, respectively) but the wing looks like a...Polecat?

Birdie - Innova Disc Golf

The Birdie is our best "go-for" disc and an excellent approach disc. It is a slow, straight flyer with a sure Thumtrac® grip that makes it easy to go for it without worry.

Don't think this approval for a retooled Birdie is the correct top:

Birdie (retooled) by Innova Champion Discs

PDGA Approved on 1991-05-13 00:00:00

Latest version of the Birdie shares thumbtrac top with Rhyno and rim + core with Polecat (thus the old Ontario tooling from Innova). The thumbtrac patent number is visible on the first photo.

Infinite can see how well the 1 speed discs have been selling (Berg/Glitch/Polecat) and want to get some of that attention/hype. Looks like R-blend and Metal Flake Color Glow C-blend are the first plastics to be released at max weight (175).

Glide numbers for the Innova Polecat/Birdie probably aren't comparable to this Infinite Glyph which is being marketed at 1/5/0/0 or 1/5/0/1 from the postings I've found. Hard to justify giving these lid discs such a high glide rating with the blunt leading edge/non-beveled wing compared to an Aviar P&A.

I forgot about the Birdie, only ever tried one before the retool (thumbtrac-less).

Definitely looks like a Ryno/Birdie Thumtrac top. Wouldn't shock me if this was just a Birdie looking at the profile view.

Birdie vs. Rhyno Thumtrac is identical. Old Ontario tooled dx Birdie fwiw

 

[wolfhaley]

DX Polecat on the left, DX Birdie on the right. Both Ontario tooled. Doesn't look quite the same. Rhino bottom is obviously totally different.

I'm almost certain this is just a Birdie in different plastics. Which is cool, Birdie deserves more love.
