SKU: DG-DGA-SPK-AFT (REF2701-1)
Description
The DGA Spark Aftershock midrange is DGA's stable utility midrange, molded in Spark plastic. It's built for players of all skill levels, and it's at its best on reliable mid lines. DGA has been part of disc golf since the very beginning, founded by the sport's creator, "Steady" Ed Headrick.
Spark Plastic
Spark, also called Sparkle Line (SP), is the most durable and longest-lasting plastic in DGA's lineup. It's transparent to translucent, with hundreds of tiny sparkle flakes suspended throughout, which makes it easily the prettiest blend to look at. It's a bit slicker than ProLine but can stand up to the toughest abuse on the course, so your disc will hold its flight for a long time.
The Mold
The Aftershock is a stable utility midrange that holds reliable lines for players of all skill levels. A small bead gives a consistent, predictable fade while the disc keeps its glide.
Stability
The Aftershock 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 | 5 | Midrange speed that rewards smooth form over raw power. |
| 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 | 2 | A moderate, dependable fade at the end of the flight. |

FAQ
Is the DGA Aftershock good for beginners?
Yes. DGA calls the Aftershock great for all skill levels.

Not really. The Aftershock is stable, rated 5/4/0/2, so it flies straight with a dependable fade rather than the hard hook of an overstable disc.
What's the difference between Spark and ProLine plastic?
Spark is DGA's most durable plastic, translucent with sparkle flakes and a slightly slicker feel. ProLine is a tacky, durable premium blend that beats in a little faster.
