Kastaplast
SKU: DG-KP-K4-STEN (REF2676-6)
Description
The Kastaplast K4 Sten utility disc is a super soft, floating warm-up and catch disc, molded in K4 plastic. It's built for players who want a straight, easy-to-control flight, and it's at its best on warm-up catch and soft approaches. Kastaplast is a Swedish disc golf company, and many of its molds carry Swedish names.
K4 Plastic
K4 is a soft hybrid plastic between base and premium. Wear and tear will show, but the flight stays the same. It has an extra grippy, gummy feel and floats in water.
The Mold
The Sten is the perfect pre-round warm-up and catch disc, an ideal introduction to disc golf, a great beach thrower, and an all-around fun disc. Despite its name, which means stone, it's super soft, grippy, and a lightweight floater.
Stability
The Sten is neutral. Neutral discs fly straight and true with very little turn or fade. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it flies straight with only a slight drift left as it slows down. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, with a gentle drift right at the finish. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It's an easy choice for beginners and a reliable tool for experienced players.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 1 | Slow putter speed, easy to control without much power. |
| Glide | 4 | Moderate glide that carries without sailing past the target. |
| Turn | 0 | No high-speed turn, so it holds its line early in flight. |
| Fade | 1 | Very little fade, so it finishes nearly straight. |
