The only release batch locked in right now is the next one, and everything Electron from my department has had Soft/Med/Firm versions from the start. I'll know a few weeks in advance.

I can see how this might be confusing. The picture released for experimental formulas 1 & 2 does say firm and soft on it, but in actual production releases, it has never said firm

Yeah, and in the Atom discussion here, at least for awhile, it was being referred to as firm and soft versions.

Probably just a carryover from the experimental formula thread. All actual MVP info for production electron never said firm, just Electron and Electron Soft

I know, I have a couple Electron Atoms from right after release(production).
I felt the Electrons today. Chalky and not tacky is correct. Had to pass.

Don't pass! Wait til you see how Electron with its soft OM hits the chains and goes kerplunk straight down into the basket.
...love that about Electron Atom.
I liked the shape and feel, but I didn't love the chalkiness. I really, really like the extra tacky feel of XT or the Yeti blend aviars.
Sure they're great, just not for me.

You can get rid of a lot of the chalkiness with repeated rinses in water(and dry offs). I usually wash my discs after rounds, and I noticed that happening with Electron compared to a still new and unused Atom I have.
They'll never be tacky, but will get similar in feel to the softer Gateway SS/SSS...if you're okay with that plastic,

Gateway is pretty hit and miss for me. Pretty settled on XT.
What I really want is a beadless Yeti.

XT in putters is nice feel, no doubt. I was at a store awhile back comparing some XT Aviar PnA to KC Pro and Yetis, and I could barely tell the difference between the XT and KC Pro, while the Yetis were slightly tackier.
I'm actually putting with a Proxy now, I like that Neutron feel on release.

That said firm there.
It's not super firm, though, so if they renamed it "medium" or whatever that makes sense. It is "firmer" than the soft, which is pretty soft.
I have one of each.

Well they were experimental so I'll cut them some slack on that. Good thing they didn't label them firm, that would've been a messhttp://mvpdiscsports.com/electron-experimental/

Right, yeah, they're definitely not what I'd call "firm."

Yep, not firm at all, just how they were referred to for awhile here. Look at posts in the "Atom" thread. You'll see the word "firm Atom" vs soft Atom used all over the place. Definitely carried over from the protos.
