Axiom Discs
SKU: DG-AXM-FS-FB (REF1409-32)
Description
The Axiom Fission Fireball distance driver is Axiom's overstable 9-speed utility driver, molded in Fission plastic. It's built for forehand throwers and anyone who needs a disc that has to fade, and it's at its best on power forehands, wind-fighting backhands, and hard fades. If you're shopping for a dependable Fireball for your bag, this Fission run is a great place to start.
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 Fireball. The Fireball is also available in Neutron, Particle Eclipse, Plasma and Proton.
The Mold
The Fireball is a 21.1 cm distance driver with an 18.5 mm rim. It is a staple in GYRO bags for a reason. Whether you're looking for power forehands, wind-fighting backhands, or a disc that simply has to fade, it delivers with dependable torque resistance and a strong finish.
Stability
The Fireball is overstable. Overstable discs resist turning over and fade hard at the end, which makes them predictable in wind and at high power. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it resists turning over and finishes with a strong, dependable fade to the left. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, with that hard fade finishing to the right. 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 9/4/0/3.5, with more glide than the standard 9/3.5/0/3.5. It's best suited to intermediate and advanced players, and it's a valuable utility disc for anyone who plays in wind.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 9 | Distance-driver speed that needs good arm speed to fly as rated. |
| Glide | 4 | Moderate glide that carries without sailing past the target. |
| Turn | 0 | No high-speed turn, so it holds its line early in flight. |
| Fade | 3.5 | A strong, reliable fade to the left (RHBH) at the end of the flight. |

FAQ
Is the Axiom Fireball good for beginners?
It's better as a utility disc. The Fireball's strong fade is great for wind and forehands, but newer players will want a straighter driver first.
Is the Axiom Fireball overstable?
Yes. The Fireball is overstable, rated 9/4/0/3.5, so it resists turning over and finishes with a dependable fade.
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.
Is the Fission Fireball different?
MVP says the Fission Fireball is slightly more glidey and throwable, pushing forward a bit longer while keeping the Fireball's torque resistance.
What disc is similar to the Axiom Fireball?
The Axiom Thrill (11/4/0/3.5) is Axiom's faster 11-speed with the same 3.5 fade.
How far does the Axiom Fireball 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.
