Hvordan velge dine første plater

The large selection of discs can be overwhelming at first, so let’s go over some of the best options for you who is new to discgolf.

Startsett

A starter set like the sets you can see here, is a good option for the beginner who wants to give discgolf a go, without breaking the bank.
They all come with 3 discs, a putter, midrange and fairway driver – everything you need to get started.
The upside to these sets is that they are made with the beginner in mind – you don’t have to think too much about it, just grab a pack and head to the course! Starter packs come in many different variations and you can find some of them right here.

Lag ditt eget startsett

The other option is to browse through the selection and choose 2-5 discs yourself.
The advantage here is that you can choose discs that suit your level of play, with higher quality plastic that will serve as a solid foundation for your discgolf collection.
The only downside here is that the cost is a little higher and requires you to do a little more research – so to make it easier for you, we have put together a little guide here.

Puttere

Hvilken putter du skal velge kan variere fra person til person og anbefalingen her er å besøke en av våre butikker og prøve et par for å finne ut hva som fungerer for deg.
Hvis det ikke er et alternativ for deg, setter vi sammen en liste med noen av våre mest populære puttere – du vil ikke gå galt med noen av disse.

Mellomtoner

I begynnelsen er en god mellomtone ofte der du vil ha størst suksess.
Vi anbefaler at du starter med en plate som har en nøytral bevegelse som en av følgende.

Fairway-førere

Vi ønsker alle å se skiven fly langt og sjåfører kan definitivt gjøre det, men de er også vanskeligere å kaste riktig og derfor anbefaler vi en tregere sjåfør til å begynne med.
Noe rundt hastighet 7 eller 8 er et godt sted å starte.
Ofte er ikke teknikken helt der i starten, så for å kompensere for det vil en mer understabil skive ofte resultere i mer avstand.
Et svingnummer rundt -2 eller -3 ser ut til å fungere bra. Vi anbefaler ett av følgende.

Avstandsførere

Generelt anbefaler vi ikke distansesjåfører til nybegynnere, det er noe for deg å utforske når du får litt mer erfaring med å kaste fairwaysjåfører.
Men hvis du er ute etter din første distansesjåfør her er noen plater vi vil anbefale å gå for.

What do the flight numbers mean? 

There are 4 numbers on a disc describing 4 different aspects of the flight of the disc. These are: Speed Glide Turn Fade.
Please note that the numbers are all unique to the different companies, meaning that one company’s speed speed 13 might not be the same as another company’s.

Hastighet

The first number is speed and that indicates how fast or aerodynamic the disc is. It is also an indicator of how hard the disc needs to be thrown in order for the remaining flight numbers to act as written.
If a discs has a speed faster than what you are able to throw, it will act more overstable (fade more).
The numbers range from 1 to 14.

Gli

Beskriver skivenes evne til å holde seg flytende i luften.
Høy glid kan gi mer avstand, men også gjøre skiven mer sårbar i vindforhold, men som nybegynner er det ofte verdt det.
Tallene varierer fra 1 til 7.

Sving

Turn describes a disc’s resistance to turn over ( the disc moving from left to right with a right hand back hand throw).
The turn will usually kick in in the last 3rd of the flight followed by the fade.
The lower the number the more likely the disc is to turn over, discs with low numbers are generally called understable.
The numbers range from +2 to -5.

Falme

Fade kicks in at the end of a disc’s flight, when the rotation of the disc starts to slow down.
This will make a disc move from right to left (RHBH).
Disc with large amounts of fade and high turn resistance will oftentimes have a more overstable flight.
The numbers range from 0 to 6.

Disc Golf Stability

Disc golf has a wide variety of discs with varying speeds and stability levels. A disc can be overstable,
neutral, or understable. Below you can learn about the different stabilities and find guidance on choosing
the right disc for your bag.

Overstable

When a disc is overstable, it means that it has a lot of fade and will turn heavily to the left (RHBH) when
thrown. This can be seen in the last number on the flight numbers that come with the disc, where a
typical overstable disc will have a fade number of 3 or higher. Overstable discs are good for throwing in
windy conditions and can be used for long distance throws with a turnover shot.

Example of overstabel discs:
Force, Rive, Deflector, Splice, Zone

Neutral

A neutral disc is a type of flying disc that is designed to fly straight. This makes it a good choice for
throwing through gaps on a disc golf course. Like most discs, it may have slight fade at the end of it’s
flight, but it will generally flip up and fly straight.

Example of neutral discs:
Undertaker, FD, Buzzz, Origin, Crave

Understable

An understable disc is the opposite of an overstable disc. A typical understable disc will have a flight
number with a -2 or -3 as the third number. This type of disc is often used by beginner players because it
requires less power and accuracy to throw. When thrown correctly, an understable disc will turn to the
right and then fade (RHBH) at the end of its flight

Example of understable discs:
Hades, Essence, D Model US, Sol


Regler og retningslinjer

Grunnleggende regler

  1. Start with your first throw from the teepad, and step aside, let the rest of the card/group make their throw.
  2. Go to the nearest disc of the group, and let the person who threw it, carry out their next throw, continue that procedure, until everyone is near the basket, remeber to count your own throws
  3. When everyone is near the basket, let the person farthest from the basket, attempt their put at the basket, when everyones disc is in the basket, the hole is finished
  4. Go to the next holes teepad, and register the number of throws, for everyone on the card/group
  5. Play the next hole, the same way as described in the first four steps
  6. The person on the card/group, with the fewest throws in total wins the round

Retningslinjer

  1. Never throw a disc when people or animals are in your way of getting hit
  2. Always do a quick warmup, before you start a round
  3. Let faster groups pass you by
  4. Never throw trash on a discgolf course, bag it out bag it home
