MVP VOLT - The Comprehensive Thread

How does a Volt compare to an Escape?

[Rogue9]

I have a 168 and a 175 volt and the lighter one is definitely more over stable than the heavy one.

I haven't thrown any other Volts except my 175g but it definitely turns, even if released on a slight hyzer.

And my 170g volt turns when thrown on a hyzer, but my 175g volt doesnt turn even when thrown flat

Huh, crazy. Maybe the answer depends on the throwers rotational vs. forward velocity...? Like, higher spins get more turn with heavier weights, since in theory, most if not all the added weight is on the outer edge?

I may stick with just the 176 one, and team it with the Teebird, seeing after 2.5 yrs, and 4 lost teebirds, I'm finally getting one to fly like it should.

I got no clue on the Escape...

Thats a solid theory. The more logical explanation is that its me, not the disc.

The disc that knows what to do when I don't know what the bleep I'm DOing

This thread needs a bump for a sick disc. I've been throwing this for 50%+ of drives on some courses and it is just such an easy to throw, reliable driver.

I'm definitely guilty of bragging when I say it but almost every time I throw my volt i get ohhs and ahhs, and "beautiful shots", and it's true. I give more credit to the disc than anything. It truly does fly different than other discs. There is a certain functional beauty to every volt throw in the way it locks in to a line. And the ease of throwing it makes it so consistent. I would say just look at the way Barry throws beasts, but imagine an eagle flight, and you have a volt.

Couldn't agree more. This is going in the sig.
