Detailed Breakdown: Storm Home to Victory
The Viking Drakkar is more than a dart; it is a precision-engineered warship. At $149.95, it represents the pinnacle of Shot's machining capabilities. The barrel features a unique "carrot" shape—tapered at the nose for tight grouping and weighted at the rear for stability. It is specifically designed for players who hold the dart towards the back or flight.
Key Performance Features
-
Rear-Weighted Balance: The weight is concentrated at the "stern" (back) of the barrel. This creates a distinct flight path, perfect for players who push the dart and want to avoid the nose dipping too early.
-
Complex Grip Zones: The rear features an axial-cut "Shark Fin" grip for aggressive propulsion. The mid-section utilizes the "Siege" interlocking grip, providing a stable 3/5 grip level that is secure but not overly abrasive.
-
Carrot Shape Design: The stealthy, tapered nose reduces deflections and bounce-outs, allowing the dart to slide past others in the treble 20 with ease.
-
Deep Blue Armour: The barrel is treated with a hi-tech Particle Coating Technology (PCT) in deep ocean blue. This coating is ultra-durable, protecting the tungsten from wear while maintaining the tactile feel of the grip.

Why Choose the Viking Drakkar?
If you are a rear-gripper, finding a dart that balances correctly can be a struggle. The Drakkar solves this with its specific rear-weight distribution.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the benefit of the "Carrot" shape?
The carrot shape (tapered nose, thicker rear) allows for very tight grouping. Because the front is thin, it creates more room in the treble bed, while the weight at the back drives the dart in firmly.
Is this dart suitable for beginners?
This is a professional-grade set. While a beginner can certainly use it, the rear-weighted balance is specialized. It is best suited for players who have developed a consistent throw and know they prefer a rear balance.
How durable is the blue coating?
The PCT (Particle Coating Technology) is extremely durable. It is fused to the tungsten at a molecular level, meaning it won't flake or chip like cheaper paints, though natural wear from metal-on-metal contact is normal over time.
