Kastaplast Disc Golf K1 Hard Stig - Clay Edwards Tour Series 2023
Description
The Kastaplast K1 Hard Stig midrange is a glidey, understable midrange driver, molded in K1 Hard plastic. It's built for newer players and anyone who wants easy distance and turnovers, and it's at its best on narrow fairways and touch shots. This listing is the Clay Edwards 2023 Tour Series release of the Stig. It's part of Kastaplast's 2023 Tour Series, in the Tour Series-exclusive K1 Hard plastic.
K1 Hard Plastic
K1 Hard has the same polished feel as K1 but is slightly harder, doesn't beat in as fast, and gives the disc a touch more stability. It's a Tour Series exclusive.
The Mold
Follow that path! The Stig makes narrow fairways less intimidating: use your best touch shot and watch it glide and land in circle one. It's in the same family as the Kaxe, but more understable with less fade.
Stability
The Stig 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 |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 6 | Fairway speed, manageable for most arms. |
| Glide | 5 | Lots of glide to help it stay in the air and add distance. |
| 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. |
