The Prodigy Disc Falcor is an overstable driver that also packs in a lot of glide. It’s a disc players will be able to lean on, and players with higher arm speeds will be able to get a max distance flight out of it.
Here is the different Prodigy plastics:
Base Grip Plastic
BaseGrip plastic offers a tactile feel for a sure grip every time you reach for it. It finds a great balance between stiffness and the ability to wear-in to perfection. BaseGrip plastic provides a cost-effective option without sacrificing on quality and performance in all weather conditions.
Durability: 2. / 5.0 Stiffness: / 5.0 Grip: 4. / 5.0
Duraflex Plastic
A good premium plastic, durable enough to stand the test of time and the elements while still providing excellent grip.
Durability: / 5.0 Stiffness: / 5.0 Grip: / 5.0
Proflex Plastic
The top dog of base plastics. Premium plastic in a more cost effective package. Very durable and amazing in the hand. Class leading.
Durability: 5.0 / 5.0 Stiffness: / 5.0 Grip: / 5.0
200 Plastic
200 Plastic is great for entry-level players looking to get into the game, as well as experienced players who love to fine-tune their discs by working them in just the way they like. The feel of 200 Plastic brings a new dimension to our line-up, as it’s similar to our 300 plastic but less tacky.
Durability: / 5.0 Stiffness: / 5.0 Grip: / 5.0
300 Plastic
300 Plastic has been developed for optimum feel and grip for putters, approach discs, and midrange discs, and would be considered our baseline plastic. The blend of materials is durable enough to take a solid impact and maintain its flight characteristics while still having the ability to be broken in with regular use.
Durability: / 5.0 Stiffness: / 5.0 Grip: / 5.0
300 Soft Plastic
Based on popular feedback for a soft, flexible, and grippy plastic, we have developed our 300 Soft Plastic blend. It is a less firm version of our popular 300 Plastic, and maintains the same great qualities, such as being durable enough to withstand solid impact while also being able to break in over time. It is a great option for players who like a flexible feel to go with a grippy base plastic.
Durability: / 5.0 Stiffness: / 5.0 Grip: / 5.0
400 Plastic
400 Plastic is a premium blend of materials that is extremely durable and gives the thrower an impeccable grip, even when it is wet. It is the most popular Prodigy plastic across the entire lineup of discs. While 400 Plastic is often known for its translucent properties, which catch the sunlight well for pronounced colours in the daytime, it can also be more opaque. 400 plastic has a stiff rim and more “pop” when you flex the centre of the disc.
Durability: / 5.0 Stiffness: / 5.0 Grip: / 5.0
500 Plastic
500 Plastic is a premium blend that has a less gummy feel than 400 plastic. This provides you with an extremely confident grip and a stiffer flight plate, balancing just the right amount of flex and firmness. 500 Plastic has a uniquely pearlescent finish which adds another visual element to each disc.
Durability: / 5.0 Stiffness: / 5.0 Grip: / 5.0
750 Plastic
750 Plastic is a premium blend that is similar in grip and texture to our 400 plastic but with a firmer feel. This high-tech blend of resins provides outstanding performance and predictability, and is extremely durable. The rigidity of 750 Plastic makes it great for hot weather, as it retains a good firmness even as it heats up and becomes more pliable.
Durability: / 5.0 Stiffness: / 5.0 Grip: / 5.0
AIR Plastic
AIR Plastic is a premium blend based on our revolutionary 400 Plastic base resin and has been modified to create durable, lightweight discs.
Lightweight discs in AIR plastic are engineered for the same shot performance as their heavier counterparts, with added glide for effortless and easy distance. Some of the best disc golf discs for beginners are lightweight, but more experienced players will also see the benefit and utility of throwing discs in a lower weight.
Durability: / 5.0 Stiffness: / 5.0 Grip: / 5.0
Special Blend
Special Blend plastic is a premium formulation that offers a firm yet extremely smooth feel in the hand, with high-caliber durability. Special Blend was created as an homage to the highly sought-after “Test” plastic from the early years of Prodigy manufacturing. Special Blend plastic is reserved for special edition discs and produced in limited batches. It feels most similar to 750 Plastic.
Durability: / 5.0 Stiffness: / 5.0 Grip: / 5.0
