Bought a proton axiom fireball the other day on a whim, performed like a seasoned firebird right off the shelf. I could see this mold replacing my uniquely worn firebird if it were lost, much like a crave could for a beat teebird. The low profile pleased me as well. The lack of testimonials on this thread sort of surprises me. Good disc.
As far as discs in this class go they pretty much all have the same general shape/feel in the hand. None of my local shops carry MVP. Is the fireball more comfortable than say a firebird or other similar discs? Most mvp/axiom fairways I have felt are incredibly flat and comfortable to grip.
Fireball IMO was their troll move on the firebird. Always were flat flight plates...

Yes, all Fireballs I own or have seen are flat and comfortable. Firebirds were always really comfortable for me too for what it's worth, but they seem to have more variance in their dome.
Note that neutron fireballs tend to be run in a slightly softer blend. Not sure why, but I love the way it grips. It's one reason I bag the mold.
Super stable like regular champ firebirds or more akin to a sexton firebird/felon?
I need to get a good stiff overstable one. The last one I had (and all the ones available locally) was the new gummy N that doesn't skip well on grass. Fireball needs to come to the ground hot!
For those of you who throw a fireball, what other very OS discs do you carry? I have a good backhand and forehand (after some work) and am currently running entropy, resistor, fireball and energy but have been looking into simplifying it into three molds.
I think fireballs power down well enough to drop the Resistor, which I bagged for years.
