Discs come in a wide variety of plastics. Some are better suited for certain scenarios than others, others are simply better quality and will last longer.
Every brand has their own names for the different plastic types. We’ve put this chart together as a general reference the next time you see a plastic name and want to know how it fairs!
| BASE PLASTIC | STANDARD PLASTIC | TRANSLUCENT PREMIUM PLASTIC | OPAQUE PREMIUM PLASTIC | SPECIAL EDITION |
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Victor 1 (V1) Soft and ultra-tacky plastic famous for it’s ability to grab chains, limit ground play, and float in water. Considered to be Lone Star's softest plastic blend. |
Delta 1 (D1) Base-feeling medium plastic blend that bridges the gap between the Lone Star Alpha and Victor plastics. Remains stiff while offering enough grip to maintain player confidence no matter the conditions |
Alpha The plastic that Lone Stars flight numbers are based on Durable, smooth, high-quality blend that is similar to most plastics in this class such as ESP, Star, S-Line etc |
Founders Translucent, metal-flake blend of plastic used exclusively for Tour Series and Special Event discs. “This plastic is most similar in feel to our Alpha blend with an ounce of added stability.” |
|
|
Victor 2 (V2) Stiffer blend than Victor 1 while maintaining the same tackiness. It will maintain it’s shape while offering superior grip for putt and approach shots in any weather condition. Also floats in water. |
Delta 2 (D2) Even stiffer, smoother blend of Lone Star's Delta 1 plastic. While the D1 and D2 plastics have a similar feel to V1 and V2, they do not float in water. |
Bravo Softer, more gummy than Alpha, making it the perfect plastic for cold weather conditions or for extra grip. (Available in Glow). Comparable with Innova’s G-Star |
Charlie Founder’s plastic without the added metal flakes. It is translucent, slick, and stiff. “In terms of stability, it falls between our Alpha and Founder’s blends.” Charlie plastic is reserved for special events. |
|
|
Lima Lightweight, springy, grippy, and airy feeling plastic. If left or lost out in nature, Lima plastic will biodegrade more quickly than other plastics. Lima is typically used by Juniors, Age Protected players, and those looking to gain extra distance by using a lighter weight plastic. Typically falls within the 155-160g range |
