Evolution plastic

Evolution is a Gateway Disc Sports plastic with moderate grip, middling durability and a fairly firm feel, sitting between the brand's baseline and premium options.

Gateway's catalog is unusually deep in plastic variations, and Evolution is one of the grades used across a wide spread of molds rather than reserved for a few.
