Streamline Disc Golf Plasma Trace Distance Driver 11/5/-1/2 - Choose Exact Disc
SKU: DG-STR-PLS-TRC (REF452-69)
Description
The Streamline Plasma Trace distance driver is Streamline's straight-stable power driver, molded in Plasma plastic. It's built for players who want straight, controllable distance, and it's at its best on straight power drives with a dependable finish. If you're shopping for a dependable Trace for your bag, this Plasma run is a great place to start.
Plasma Plastic
Plasma is an advanced disc golf polymer with a metallic sheen on the core and color-shift tones in select colors. It's a semi-gummy, grippy, flexible blend that's also highly durable, so your Trace holds its flight for a long time. Choose Plasma if you want premium durability with a little more grip and flex than Neutron or Proton. The Trace is also available in Cosmic Neutron, Neutron and Proton.
The Mold
The Trace is a 21.2 cm solo-mold distance driver with a 21 mm rim. It has a manageable 21mm rim and a straight-stable flight that places it squarely in the 11-speed power-straight market. Its moderate dome is smooth and even, with a shoulder and depth that yield excellent glide. Most players can stand it up on a hyzer-flip, and it soaks up plenty of power before being pushed off its straight line. Its ending fade is smooth but dependable for easy ranging.
Stability
The Trace is stable. Stable discs fly straight for most of their flight and finish with a dependable fade. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it flies straight with a reliable fade to the left at the end. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, with the 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 suits players of every skill level who want a predictable flight.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 11 | Distance-driver speed that needs good arm speed to fly as rated. |
| Glide | 5 | Lots of glide to help it stay in the air and add distance. |
| Turn | -1 | A touch of high-speed turn to the right (RHBH) for a little extra distance. |
| Fade | 2 | A moderate, dependable fade at the end of the flight. |

The Streamline Engine (13/5/-0.5/2) is a faster 13-speed workhorse driver with a similar line-holding flight.
