Kastaplast Disc Golf K1 Soft Grym X Distance Driver 12/5/-1/3 -Choose Exact Disc
Description
The Kastaplast K1 Soft Grym X distance driver is Kastaplast's solid main distance driver, molded in K1 Soft plastic. It's built for players who want a predictable, reliable flight, and it's at its best on reliable distance drives. Kastaplast is a Swedish disc golf company, and many of its molds carry Swedish names.
K1 Soft Plastic
K1 Soft is similar to K1 but flexier and grippier, and it comes in both translucent and solid colors. It's the same plastic as the old K2.
The Mold
The X version of the Grym was designed to be the solid main driver experienced players asked for, performing distance duties time after time.
Stability
The Grym X 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's best for intermediate to advanced players with good arm speed.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 12 | Very high speed that needs strong 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 | 3 | A strong, reliable fade to the left (RHBH) at the end of the flight. |
