What are the different types of disc golf disc plastics?

Plastic descriptions for the Trilogy brands coming soon!

 

There are so many factors that come into play when choosing a disc golf disc. The type of plastic that is used is one more factor that can be added to the list. The plastic type can affect grip, durability, flexibility and even the discs flight path. Generally economy plastics in each brand will "break in" faster than premium plastics but are not as durable. Each plastic blend has its' own special features which makes it important to consider each type of plastic for each of your discs. Generally a disc golf player will carry a variety of plastics, even some in the same model. Each plastic blend is listed below for different disc golf manufacturers ranked from economy to premium plastics plus specialty blends.
