[Other] Kastaplast Göte

[TKWolverine]

Well, I'm desiring this disc very much! Any word on a release date?

Answering my own question: I contacted Kasataplast and they said the Gote will be released in about two weeks.

I've been in the same boat forever and just discovered the Bard. Ever tried one?

I have not tried any Westside mids actually. My experience with new trilogy plastic is that they break in too fast and lose their stability. OS discs quickly become neutral or understable.

From what I have read, Finnish is not an Indo-European language. As I understand it, there is some confusion to if it is related to Turkish or not.

History need here, not a language major, so I may be a bit off.

Turkish is an amalgam of Arabic, English, French, and turkic dialects. Much closer to Arabic than Finnish, though some of the sounds are probably similar.

Stable comet is what I am seeing, photos and flight videos. I cannot wait. Looks like a great disc to pair with the Kaxe. I like powering up a slower neutral/us mid. Kaxe/beat buzzz or Kaxe/Comet have been my pair for a while.

Those are some nice midrange combos. A Comet-like disc in Kastaplast plastic would be awesome!

Kastaplast posted this on Instagram. . so i guess the name of the disc comes from the name of the town Kastaplast new factory is in

"Göte is an old Norse first name, meaning a person from Götaland (southern Sweden). This will be our first disc made in our new factory in Götene. Flight specs: 4/5/0/1 "

Here's some good video:

It looks very promising!

Some more chatter on facebook is making this sound more like a stable Z comet. Comet glide more HSS?

Comparisons also made to a midrange Nova... I will hopefully be getting a pair asap the 2/13 release.

The videos showed less HSS, not more. From the video, more Nova like, but faster.

I've been more interested in descriptions, some of the videos show a bit of turn, but I have trouble seeing wrist angles and such to really tell.

Looks like a smaller diameter, chunkyer Comet.

I don't expect it to be a Comet killer, but I want to give it a try.

Maybe it will fly like an Ion. I love the Ion flight but hate the hand feel.

The Göte actually has a 0,1 cm wider diameter than a Comet according to the list of PDGA approved discs.

acerunners has a couple up, rest of the internet seems sold out.

It seems worth having one of these just to have a mid in Kastaplast plastic.

Kaxe is a mid.
Still gonna buy one as soon as they pop up.

I disagree. I think they're hybrids. This looks more like a classic mid.
