MATERIAL:
Gateway Disc Golf's Super Stupid Soft (SSS) plastic is a fan favorite for its incredible grip, soft feel, and surprising durability. It's like a trusty teddy bear for your throws, providing comfort and confidence on every disc fling.
Here's what makes SSS plastic stand out:
Grippy Like Glue: SSS discs practically stick to your fingers, even in wet or sweaty conditions. This enhanced grip translates to better control during throws and improved catching in the basket's chains. No more frustrating slips or missed grabs!
Soft as a Marshmallow: SSS discs are incredibly flexible and soft to the touch. This makes them comfortable to hold and release, reducing hand fatigue during long rounds. Imagine the gentle squeeze of a stress ball, but one that soars through the air.
Surprisingly Tough: Don't let the "soft" fool you. SSS plastic is surprisingly durable. It can withstand nicks, bumps, and even the occasional tree snag with grace. It's like a marshmallow that can take a punch (or a putter that can handle a rough landing).
Gateway Glide: Gateway discs are known for their impressive glide, and SSS plastic doesn't disappoint. These discs maintain their smooth flight even with their added grippiness, allowing for longer, effortless throws and graceful hyzer flips. Think of it as a marshmallow that floats on a gentle breeze.
Versatility Champion: SSS discs can handle a wide range of shots, from delicate putts and approach shots to surprising flex lines and turnovers. Their blend of grippy control and impressive glide makes them ideal for all skill levels and playstyles. It's like a chameleon of the disc world, adapting to any throw you throw its way.
Gateway's Artistic Touch: Gateway discs are known for their vibrant artwork, and SSS plastic is no exception. The unique texture of the plastic creates a canvas for Gateway's artists, resulting in stunning and eye-catching discs that stand out on the course. Think of it as a marshmallow canvas painted with a rainbow of possibilities.
