Streamline Disc Golf Neutron Flare Distance Driver 9/4/0/3.5 - Choose Exact Disc
SKU: DG-STR-N-FLR (REF103-54)
Description
The Streamline Neutron Flare distance driver is Streamline's first overstable distance driver, molded in Neutron plastic. It's built for players who need a driver for wind, power throws, and utility shots, and it's at its best on headwinds, high-power throws, and utility shots. If you're shopping for a dependable Flare for your bag, this Neutron run is a great place to start.
Neutron Plastic
Neutron is the flagship plastic of the MVP family and the most popular blend Streamline uses. It's opaque and grippy with a premium look and feel, and it comes in the widest selection of bright colors, which makes your Flare easy to find in any terrain. Neutron shares the great durability of Proton, so it holds its flight for a long time. Because Streamline discs are solo-mold, the whole disc is one uniform piece of Neutron, finished with Streamline's clean edges and triple-foil stamps. The Flare is also available in Cosmic Neutron.
The Mold
The Flare is a 21.2 cm solo-mold distance driver with a 19 mm rim. It is designed for flights with minimal turn, ending in a powerfully overstable finish, with reserved glide to keep it from going long on approaches. It debuted Streamline's 19mm driver class as its first 9-speed. It can handle the highest-power throws, the strongest winds, and a wide range of utility shots.
Stability
The Flare is overstable. Overstable discs resist turning over and fade hard at the end, which makes them predictable in wind and at high power. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it resists turning over and finishes with a strong, dependable fade to the left. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, with that hard fade finishing to the right. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It's best suited to intermediate and advanced players, and it's a valuable utility disc for anyone who plays in wind.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 9 | Distance-driver speed that needs good arm speed to fly as rated. |
| 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 | 3.5 | A strong, reliable fade to the left (RHBH) at the end of the flight. |

FAQ
Is the Streamline Flare good for beginners?
It's better as a utility driver. Its powerful fade is great for wind, but newer players will see it hook early.
Is the Streamline Flare overstable?
Yes. The Flare is overstable, rated 9/4/0/3.5, so it resists turning over and finishes with a dependable fade.
What's the difference between Neutron and Proton plastic?
Neutron is opaque and grippy with the widest color selection, while Proton is translucent with similar durability and slightly more grip. Both hold their flight for a long time.
What disc is similar to the Streamline Flare?
The Streamline Boost (9.5/4/0/2.5) is a slightly less overstable driver with a little more control.
How far does the Streamline Flare fly?
With an average arm, expect roughly 345 feet. Distance depends heavily on your power and form, so stronger throwers will go farther and newer players shorter.
