Elevation Disc Golf Uktena

Elevation says this about the Uktena: "Uktena is a creature from Cherokee legends; it’s aggressive, cunning, and powerful! With its snakelike body, wings, antlers, and powerful crystal imbued upon its head, it carves through the forest and glides through the sky. Cherokee Elders say that the Uktena can be seen when a major change is coming. This is exactly what the Uktena is for us at Elevation Disc Golf because this is our first disc made from plastic, a distance driver made to snake its way through the course. Legend has it that if you can best Uktena and capture its crystal, you can become very powerful. So come see if the legends are true about Uktena and see if you can master the power it has inside.

This disc was designed by Austin Minocci, and the name and story behind the disc were made in partnership with Drake Bendabout of the Cherokee tribe of Oklahoma. Drake wanted to tell more people about his culture, and through the new disc at Elevation Disc Golf, he could help do that. He grew up on stories about Uktena and got more resources from his uncle Choogie Kingfisher (Cherokee National Treasure for his storytelling) to help bring this idea to life. He hopes it brings awareness to the Cherokee people and their rich culture of stories. Drake Bendabout is on Team Elevation and illustrated/designed the art for the official stamp of the first run Uktena."
