Our Plastics

Curious what our main disc golf plastic types are?

Get ready to uncover the art and science behind the molds that make our disc golf discs fly, flip, and fade just the way you want them to.

We currently have eight Divergent Discs plastic varieties: MaxGrip, MaxGrip Glow, MaxGrip UV, StayPut, MaxValue, MaxLife, MaxFlex, and Incognito.

Our discs are like a symphony of materials, and we’re here to spill the beans on how they take flight.

So, buckle up—it’s time to meet the molds that make your disc golf adventures easier, fun, and more delightful!

MaxGrip Plastic

MaxGrip is our signature plastic that kickstarted it all.

Made out of a premium blend, it makes your discs shimmer, as if they’re ready for the runway.

But it’s not just about looking fantastic; MaxGrip is like an elastic superhero that serves up safety and the maximum grip that disc golf players crave.

Moderately soft and flexible, discs in MaxGrip mold bounce back to shape quicker than you can say “ace” and let out a little heartbeat sound when you press on their flight plate.

MaxGrip Glow Plastic

Let the evening disc golf games begin!

The slightly stiffer cousin of our classic MaxGrip plastic, MaxGrip Glow is like the caffeine shot your discs need to keep the party going (and your discs glowing) in the dark.

These molds still rock it during the day, but when the sun bids goodbye and the darkness waves hello, that’s when the real fun begins.

MaxGrip UV Plastic

Sun’s out, discs out. Add a dash of magic to your daytime disc golf escapades with our MaxGrip UV plastic!

Indoors, a MaxGrip UV disc will be one color. But, like a chameleon in the sun, discs in this plastic will be ready to dazzle and amaze when you expose them to sunlight.

Watch as your handprint or the basket chains alter the color and design of your discs.

Light pink discs go rogue and turn red, blue ones groove to green, and green discs embrace their inner purple. The dark pink ones? Yep, they’re getting in on the purple action too.

But like all good things in life, this feature might mellow out a bit over time. So, get out there, soak up the sun, and let your MaxGrip UV discs be your colorful sidekick on the course.

Watch the Magic Happen on the Course

StayPut Plastic

StayPut plastic is a Silicone blend similar to rubber, and we use it exclusively for our specialty approach discs, Alpas and Golem. It’s ultra soft and flexible for a disc, you’d think it was made of marshmallow dreams.

Discs in this unique plastic will save you strokes by staying put next to the basket and sticking to the ground like they’ve got Velcro shoes on.

But here’s the plot twist: StayPut discs aren’t fans of chilly weather. They might get a little brittle and could break on impact, so make sure to save them for the sunny days.

Also, a pro tip: don’t even think of folding them in half. This can damage your discs, making them unusable.

Make Those Throws Stay Put

MaxValue Plastic

As a brand that’s on a mission to make disc golf more accessible, we introduced the MaxValue plastic blend to recreational, budget-savvy disc golfers who just want to have a good time on the course without leaving their wallets bare.

An ultra affordable plastic blend, MaxValue gives your molds a bit less dome and a slightly more stable flight path than their MaxGrip counterparts.

Translation? Your throws are as reliable as your favorite pizza place’s delivery.

It’s the golden ticket for newbies and anyone looking to dip their toes into the disc golf pond. So, if you don’t plan on playing thickly wooded courses or only plan to play occasionally, then these discs should be your perfect partners in crime.

Tee Off With a Budget-Friendly Disc

MaxLife Plastic

Ready to take on the world of disc golf?

If you play lots of disc golf, regularly navigate thickly wooded courses, or tend to give your discs a beating, then Divergent Discs in MaxLife plastic are your jam.

These discs are flatter than MaxGrip discs and have a transparent look that’s as clear as your game plan.

MaxLife is an ultra durable plastic blend suitable for intermediate disc golfers and even pros and will withstand hundreds of disc golf rounds, even on the gnarliest courses.

Conquer the Course With MaxLife

MaxFlex Plastic

MaxFlex might not be as flexible as StayPut, but it’s got a trick up its sleeve: its soft nature gives you that extra durability you crave from a standard MaxGrip blend.

It’s the kind of plastic that laughs in the face of skips and thrives in wet and chilly conditions. So, rain or shine, this disc is always up for an adventure.

Perform Like a Champion

Incognito Plastic

Incognito is an experimental version of MaxGrip that loves to play with colors.

Watch as your dark purple Leviathan turns pink at some angles in the sunshine. When the sun’s spotlight hits your disc, it’s showtime!
