MVP Fission Photon 11 | 5 | -1 | 2.5 If you have always wanted to throw a stable, high-speed driver but just don't have the arm speed to keep it flat, the MVP Fission Photon is your cheat code. Sitting as the most workable, accessible option in the MVP Photon Collection, this disc completely changes the game in our disc golf distance drivers collection. By utilizing a lightweight micro-bubble core, the Fission plastic pushes more mass to the outer GYRO rim. The result? You get the massive, forward-pushing glide and torque resistance of a beefy 11-speed, but with a much easier release that average arms can actually flex down the fairway. Flight Numbers With an 11-speed rim and a solid 5 glide, the Photon covers ground quickly. While standard runs are more overstable, the Fission plastic allows that -1 turn to actually show itself on the course. Thrown flat, it will get a smooth, manageable pan to the right before the dependable 2.5 fade brings it safely back to center. Speed Glide Turn Fade 11 5 -1 2.5 The Fission Photon delivers: Accessible Distance: Lighter weights and GYRO rim weighting allow intermediate players to achieve a full S-curve flight without needing pro-level power. Enhanced Glide: The Fission core naturally traps more air underneath the flight plate, keeping the disc suspended longer before the low-speed fade kicks in. Dependable Finish: Even at lighter weights, it retains enough core stability to fight out of an anhyzer release and fade predictably. It excels at: Max-distance flex lines for players stepping up to their first 11-speed driver Long, controlled tailwind bombs where you need the disc to stay in the air Smooth forehand drives that need to push straight before fading out Fission Plastic MVP’s Fission plastic is an absolute game-changer. By injecting micro-bubbles into the core of the disc, MVP strips weight out of the center flight plate. Because the signature GYRO overmold ring remains solid, dense black plastic, the disc maintains its heavy outer edge even at weights as low as 150 grams. This extreme weight distribution creates unmatched gyroscopic momentum, meaning the disc spins longer, glides further, and flies much straighter out of the box than traditional premium plastics. How the Photon Fits in the MVP Lineup Vs the MVP Proton Photon: The Proton blend is significantly stiffer and more overstable. Where the Fission version wants to flip up and glide, the Proton Photon wants to fight the wind and fade hard, making it better for bigger arms. Vs the MVP Eclipse Photon: The Eclipse run is a pure meat hook designed for extreme headwinds and glow rounds. The Fission Photon is your everyday, max-distance bomber for open fairways. Vs the Innova Wraith: Both occupy that workable 11-speed slot, but the Fission Photon’s unique rim weighting gives it a slightly longer, straighter push before the low-speed fade takes over. MVP Photon Release Information Flight Numbers: Speed 11 | Glide 5 | Turn -1 | Fade 2.5 Disc Type: Stable Distance Driver Plastic Blends: Lightweight Fission Frequently Asked Questions About the MVP Photon What does Fission plastic do to the flight of the Photon? Because of the micro-bubble core, Fission plastic typically gives the Photon noticeably more glide and a slightly more pronounced high-speed turn. It makes the disc much easier to throw far, especially when you drop down into the 150g-160g weight range. Is the Fission Photon good for intermediate players? Yes. While most 11-speed drivers are too beefy for developing arms, a lightweight Fission Photon is the perfect stepping stone. It allows average power throwers to actually see the disc flip up and ride flat before fading. How does a lightweight Fission Photon handle the wind? Lighter Fission Photons are absolute bombers in a tailwind, as the glide keeps them carrying forever. However, if you are throwing directly into a stiff headwind, you will want a max weight version or a stiffer plastic like Eclipse to prevent it from flipping over. Looking for a different variation?
