Dart Flights
Upgrade your dart flights, change the game! The pros know that the flights make all the difference when it comes to accurate dart throw. New to darts? Dart flights are the small fins at the back of a dart, usually made of plastic or nylon. These aerodynamic fins provide stability for the dart. Dart Flights come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and designs.
As your skills in darts grow, you'll be able to notice the difference between dart flights. When darts are speeding through the air, they need stabilization or they'd crash directly onto the floor. Think of an arrow or paper airplane—similar principle with dart flights. There are a few different shapes to consider when shopping for dart flights: pear, kite, slim, and standard. Kite and pear shaped flights offer a flattened shape, for better control and more speed. Standard flights work best with heavier darts. Slim flights are elongated with a taper, making them ideal for use with lightweight darts. Each dart flight shape has its merits, with standard being the most popular and most widely used. Buying a mixed set is a good way to test which size and style you prefer.
Most dart sets come with one set of dart flights. These can bend, fall off, and get lost easily, especially if you bring your darts with you when traveling. Even if you play at home, having an assortment of dart flights to choose from can improve your game. Try out different flights to see how it changes your throw. When playing darts at a bar or other public space, using unique flights is good way to insure you retrieve your darts. Glitter, special artwork, and bright colors will make your flights stand out in a crowd. Before heading out to your next tournament, be sure to pack extra flights, just in case!
