Disc Golf Plastics

Dynamic Discs & Westside Discs

Advanced and tournament disc golf players will wax on about the different types of disc golf plastics out there, going into their various benefits and drawbacks. To start with, disc golf plastic type varies by quality, influencing your grip and its durability out on the course.

In working with Latitude 64 to develop our discs, we factor in the following:

  • The degree of grippiness the disc will offer, including in wet and cold conditions.
  • Durability and impact resistance on rough terrain and in hot and cold weather.
  • How flexible the disc will feel, including in hot and cold conditions.
  • Strength and durability in relation to flight characteristics.

Disc golf plastics, including from Dynamic Discs, Latitude 64, and Westside Discs, fall into the following groupings within this spectrum:

  • High-quality and cost-effective plastics: These disc golf plastics tend to be geared toward beginners and those getting into the game. While lower in cost, these plastics tend to offer a strong grip. But you’ll find that, out on the course, they show wear sooner and may lose some of their flight characteristics as a result. Yet, they offer a reliable starting spot, help you get a feel for the game, and provide a segue into more stronger plastic types.
  • Premium disc golf plastics: Not all premium disc golf plastics are identical. However, they maintain a grippy feel, smoothing out the transition for beginner players improving their skills, and they offer a greater degree of impact resistance too. This last point means that the disc’s flight characteristics stay unchanged for longer, allowing you to get more use out of it. As well, premium disc golf plastic materials are the foundation for discs specifically created to handle and remain flexible in hot, cold, or windy conditions.

On this last note, as you improve your skills, consider experimenting with different types of golf discs for grip and flight characteristics to see what works for you.

An advanced version of VIP-plastic that contains technical polymers. You cannot see through Tournament disc golf plastic. The durability of Tournament plastic is at the same level than VIP Plastic, but the Tournament’s grip is slightly better. Our Tournament plastic is closely similar to Latitude Gold Line plastic.
