Kastaplast’s latest addition to the lineup is Nord, an overstable midrange disc designed to meet the needs of disc golf players at all levels. Nord boasts a flight rating of 5/4/0/3, meaning it has a moderate high-speed turn, high stability, no glide, and a strong fade. This combination makes it ideal for precise throws, especially when a reliable fade is needed towards the end of the flight. What sets Nord apart from other midrange discs is its unique construction, resulting in less depth than many of its competitors. This gives players a unique feel and control when throwing Nord.
The name Nord is not chosen at random. It is a symbol of northern Sweden, Norrland, and this also carries a symbolic significance for Kastaplast’s home country. With Svea representing Svealand in the middle and Göte representing Götaland in the south, Nord completes the trio of discs symbolizing the whole of Sweden. This connection to the Swedish landscape and culture makes Nord more than just a disc; it becomes part of a narrative of community and pride.
