In the waters of Finland, a terrifying creature awaits. Known as the Iku-Turso, this malevolent sea monster has struck fear into the hearts of mankind for nearly 200 years. Inspiring not only fear, the Iku-Turso’s legend is so great that it is also featured in epic poetry, known as The Kalevala, dating all the way back to 1835. Now this creature returns thanks to an ominous illustration by Matthew Jorde on the Eclipse Wave! First released in 2023 for the OTB Open, you can now help support Silva Saarinen’s disc golf efforts with the only release of it since! Try your very own and discover why the Wave is one of the best selling drivers in MVP history!
The Wave is best described as a longer Inertia, with a stable-understable flight profile and a responsiveness that makes it useful across the power spectrum. Available in weights 175g – 155g, the Wave is the type of driver that players may bag in two or more weights for shot variety. For the most powerful throws, long gliding turnovers and hyzerflip gut shots are possible with the Wave. For average powered throws the Wave will simply extend a variety of lines, from anhyzers to hyzerflips to headwind-assisted turnovers.
Flight Chart
The defining characteristic of the Wave is its balance of turn and fade. Its shallow turn is capable of extending lines while its fade is subtle but reliable enough to range and place shots.
High-powered throwers will see turn and hyzerflip tendencies from the Wave, while average power throwers may need a headwind assistance or anhyzer release to activate the turning capabilities of the Wave. Beginners will find a useable, yet quite overstable flight in the Wave, due to the high power requirements of wide-rimmed distance drivers.
The Wave is versatile and can perform in numerous stable-understable roles.
