Kastaplast
SKU: DG-KP-K1-FALK (REF1814-18)
Description
The Kastaplast K1 Falk fairway driver is a versatile fairway driver for a wide range of players, molded in K1 plastic. It's built for newer players and anyone who wants easy distance and turnovers, and it's at its best on controllable fairway drives. Kastaplast is a Swedish disc golf company, and many of its molds carry Swedish names.
K1 Plastic
K1 is Kastaplast's super durable plastic, with a nice combination of firmness and gumminess. K1 discs come in both solid and translucent colors.
The Mold
The Falk fits the skills and power of a wide range of players. Its comfortable grip and 19 mm rim suit most hands and styles. Falk is Swedish for falcon.
Stability
The Falk is understable. Understable discs turn away from your throwing arm at speed, making turnovers and hyzer-flips easier and helping lower-power players fly straight. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it tends to drift right during the fastest part of its flight, then shows a gentle fade back to the left. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, drifting left early and fading right at the end. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It suits beginners who need help getting straight flights as well as advanced players who want to shape turnovers.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |

| Turn | -2 | Noticeable turn to the right (RHBH) at speed, great for turnovers and hyzer-flips. |
| Fade | 1 | Very little fade, so it finishes nearly straight. |
