“Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”
-Albert Einstein
When I first saw MVP unveiling more and more of their overmolded discs, they all looked the same to me. So they probably all flew the same, right? Well, I was wrong!
The MVP/Axiom family has grown quite rapidly in the past few years. Their discs have come to cover the entire spectrum of flying discs, now with Axiom’s first distance driver. The Insanity flies similarly to a beat-in Inertia.
So yeah, suck on that Einstein.
Insanity
Dan and Matt just tested one. Dan rates its stability as “somewhere between the Amp and the Volt, but longer.” He went on to say a little hyzer pop gets it out there and finishes with good glide.
Matt also likes its flight. He described it as slightly understable, almost Beast-like.
When pressed, both Matt and Dan said it’s basically a slightly faster, slightly flippier Volt.
There you have it folks. We dance round a ring and suppose (and plagiarize), but the secret sits in the middle and knows.
Inertia
This Putt and Approach is overstable enough to be cranked and not flip over. You can release it on a slight anhyzer and it will just straighten up and fade out. Similar to the Harp except the Berg has less glide.

The Legacy Mongoose is great for beginner players to try and get an S-turn out of their disc. For advanced players, you will be using it for long turn overs and rollers.

Now these discs just crush. If you can get this up to speed and have it start flipping, these are the disc you will throw every time. It lands right in the middle of the flight guide for stability.
Cannon
With a whole lot more speed, the Octane has a similar stability to the Switch, Amp, Inertia, and Wave.

The 23mm rim series should have much different stability from disc to disc, I guess the 21mm series were all pretty similar and muddled.
Nitro
At Speed 9 and very understable, the Roadrunner is often used with the so-called hyzer flip, where you release it with the far side of the disc down and it flips up and flies straight, provided you give it enough snap.
PDGA Approved in 2005.

The Mamba is a great beginner driver for those moving up from the Leopard/Eagle speed class.
At speed 11, the Mamba will get you some extra distance with its the speed and ability yo turn. And in this new grippy Star blend you’ll feel more confident with you grip, leading to better drives and the ability to get more comfortable with power.

A Catalyst speeds up a chemical reaction. And is slightly more stable than an Orbital.
