MVP Disc Sports (Official Thread)

I completely forgot that they don't do injection molding... but that's not to say you can't get the same feel/grip from an injection mold.

As for breaking in discs, it takes a while. The only other plastic, that I've found, of disc that doesn't break in as fast as MVP's, isn't even plastic, but rubber. (Vibram)

The feel of the rim on eclipse plastic is so much better than the core. It has a baseline texture with high performance durability.

Crazy, it doesn't feel the same at all.

I like how MVP discs feel in my hand. None of them really made it in the bag for some reason though.

That's a bummer. I personally love to cycle my mids/putters. I always carry those in base plastic for that reason. Drivers on the other hand I prefer in premium plastics simply because the wider rimmed discs seem to beat in faster. Maybe when MVP finally gets that driver out I'll give it a shot.

Yes, I too would love if MVP could make the cores feel like the overmolds.

You should sneak in and make some nightshift ions (if you can figure out how)

MVP to do list:

- Release Volt
- Add a more stiff version of plastic to the current soft->medium->(stiff? obviously somethings missing here)
- Possibly Experiment with new polymer formulas to try and make a new feeling, non-glossy plastic
- Release an under stable mindrange
- Release another fairway driver

How about we focus on the getting Soft Neutron, Neutron Axis & Vector, and the Volt released in Proton and Neutron. That's enough for them to work on until at least next Summer.

Speculation says it would be to heavy
