Axiom Discs
SKU: DG-AXM-GYRO25-THR (REF2424-10)
Description
The Axiom Particle Eclipse Thrill distance driver is the overstable bomber of Axiom's 21mm distance driver trio, molded in Particle Eclipse plastic. It's built for players of any arm speed who need a dependable wind driver, and it's at its best on headwind drives and hard-fading distance lines. This listing is the Eagle McMahon Elemental release of the Thrill, so you get the same trusted flight with a collectible look.
Particle Eclipse Plastic
Particle Eclipse combines the Eclipse glow material with tiny, ultra-bright glowing specks mixed into the core, creating a starry-night look when charged. It charges quickly and shines brightly for night rounds. Discs in Particle Eclipse tend to fly more overstable than standard runs of the same mold, so expect a little more fade from this Thrill.
The Mold
The Thrill is a 21.1 cm distance driver with a 21 mm rim. It is workably overstable for just about any arm, with strong resistance to turn even in strong headwinds. It's designed to fall in stability between the MVP Phase and MVP Photon 21mm distance drivers.
Stability
The Thrill 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. 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 | 11 | 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. |

Discs That Pair Well With the Thrill
- Axiom Neutron Vanish (11/5/-3/2): An understable 11-speed for straight drives and turnovers.
- Axiom Neutron Defy (11/5/-1/3): A stable-overstable driver for line-locking power drives.
- Axiom Particle Eclipse Fireball (9/3.5/0/3.5): An overstable utility driver for forehands and headwinds.
- Axiom Neutron Wrath (9/4.5/-0.5/2): A turn-resistant 9-speed for headwinds and controlled distance.
FAQ
Is the Axiom Thrill good for beginners?
It's better as a utility driver. MVP says it's workably overstable for almost any arm, but newer players will see a strong fade.
Is the Axiom Thrill overstable?
Yes. The Thrill is overstable, rated 11/4/0/3.5, so it resists turning over and finishes with a dependable fade.
What's the difference between Particle Eclipse and Eclipse plastic?
Particle Eclipse adds glowing specks for a starry look and tends to fly more overstable than standard Eclipse.
What disc is similar to the Axiom Thrill?
The MVP Phase (11/3.5/0/4) is a touch more overstable. MVP places the Thrill between the Phase and the Photon.
How far does the Axiom Thrill fly?
With an average arm, expect roughly 375 feet. Distance depends heavily on your power and form, so stronger throwers will go farther and newer players shorter.
