Axiom Discs Project Lab Coat Fission Insanity Distance Driver 9/5/-2.5/1.5 - Choose Exact Disc
Description
The Axiom Fission Insanity distance driver is Axiom's stable-to-understable 9-speed distance driver, molded in Fission plastic. It's built for average-power players who want straight distance and power players who want easy flips and turnovers, and it's at its best on straight distance drives, flip-ups, and turnovers.
Fission Plastic
Fission is MVP's ultra-lightweight Neutron core plastic. Its Fission Microbubble Technology creates an ultralight core with evenly distributed, imperceptible microbubbles, which allows an even denser GYRO overmold relative to the core. The result is a lighter disc that keeps the stability of its heavier counterparts, with improved weight distribution and durability over prior bubble plastics. It's a great way to get extra distance from your Insanity. The Insanity is also available in Cosmic Neutron, Eclipse, Neutron and Plasma.
What Is Project Lab Coat?
Project Lab Coat (PLC) is the visual refresh of the MVP Disc Sports and Axiom Discs lineups, MVP's commitment to making sure their discs are the best they can be today, not what made sense a decade ago. Most MVP and Axiom stock stamps were 10 to 15 years old, so PLC brings fresh designs built on MVP's multi-foil stamping. Axiom keeps its signature colorful GYRO rims, and black rims are joining the Axiom color mix.
Why it's a win: the flight and plastic don't change. PLC discs come from the same molds and plastic, made in the same Marlette, Michigan facility, so this Insanity flies just like the pre-PLC "Classics," with a fresh, modern look.
The Mold
The Insanity is a 21.1 cm distance driver with an 18.5 mm rim. It is best described as a worn-in MVP Inertia, with a little more high-speed turn and a diminished fade. Its softened profile mimics a more worn-in disc. Average-power throwers get a remarkably straight distance driver, while high-power throwers can execute precise flip and turnover lines with ease.
Stability
The Insanity is stable-to-understable. Understable discs turn away from your throwing arm at speed, making turnovers and hyzer-flips easier and helping lower-power players fly straight. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it tends to drift right during the fastest part of its flight, then shows a gentle fade back to the left at the end. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, drifting left early and fading right at the end. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. This Fission run is rated 9/5/-2.5/1.5, with a little more turn than the standard 9/5/-2/1.5. It suits beginners who need help getting straight flights as well as advanced players who want to shape turnovers.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 9 | Distance-driver speed that needs good arm speed to fly as rated. |
| Glide | 5 | Lots of glide to help it stay in the air and add distance. |
| Turn | -2.5 | Noticeable turn to the right (RHBH) at speed, great for turnovers and hyzer-flips. |
| Fade | 1.5 | A moderate, dependable fade at the end of the flight. |

Discs That Pair Well With the Insanity
- Axiom Neutron Wrath (9/4.5/-0.5/2): A turn-resistant 9-speed for headwinds and controlled distance.
- Axiom Fission Virus (9/5/-4/1): Axiom's easiest-to-throw understable distance driver.
- Axiom Neutron Fireball (9/3.5/0/3.5): An overstable utility driver for forehands and headwinds.
- Axiom Fission Crave (6.5/5/-1.5/1): Axiom's workhorse fairway driver for straight, controllable drives.
FAQ
Is the Axiom Insanity good for beginners?
Yes. MVP says average-power throwers will find the Insanity remarkably straight, which makes it a great first distance driver.
Is the Axiom Insanity overstable?
No. The Insanity is stable-to-understable, rated 9/5/-2.5/1.5. Its 2.5 turn makes it a better fit for turnovers and hyzer-flips than hard fades.
What's the difference between Fission and Neutron plastic?
Fission uses a microbubble Neutron core to make the disc lighter while increasing the GYRO effect. Standard Neutron is heavier and has the widest color selection.
Does Project Lab Coat change how the Insanity flies?
No. MVP says Project Lab Coat is solely a visual refresh. The Insanity is made in the same mold, from the same plastic, in the same facility, so it flies exactly the same.
What disc is similar to the Axiom Insanity?
The MVP Inertia (9/5/-2/2) is the closest match. MVP describes the Insanity as a worn-in Inertia.
How far does the Axiom Insanity fly?
With an average arm, expect roughly 345 feet. Distance depends heavily on your power and form, so stronger throwers will go farther and newer players shorter.
