Axiom Discs
SKU: DG-AXM-LS-PYPR (REF 25-62)
Description
The Axiom Prism Plasma Pyro midrange is Axiom's overstable midrange and an Eagle McMahon favorite, molded in Prism Plasma plastic. It's built for players who need a dependable fade on approaches and in the wind, and it's at its best on overstable approaches, headwind mid shots, and forehands. If you're shopping for a dependable Pyro for your bag, this Prism Plasma run is a great place to start.
Prism Plasma Plastic
Prism is Axiom's durable candy-color material, pairing a Proton rim with variable core materials. Prism Plasma shares the durability of Proton and offers excellent grip and control, with bright translucent candy colors. The Pyro is also available in Fission, Prism Neutron, Prism Proton and Prism Proton Soft.
The Mold
The Pyro is a 21.5 cm midrange with a 14.5 mm rim. It is known for its overstable characteristics and is a favorite of Eagle McMahon. It's the midrange to reach for when you need a shot that dependably fades, whether you're fighting wind or approaching from a tricky angle.
Stability
The Pyro 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 | 5 | Midrange speed that rewards smooth form over raw power. |
| 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 | 2.5 | A moderate, dependable fade at the end of the flight. |

FAQ
Is the Axiom Pyro good for beginners?
It's better as a second midrange. Its overstability gives a strong, dependable fade that newer players may find hard to keep straight.
Is the Axiom Pyro overstable?
Yes. The Pyro is overstable, rated 5/4/0/2.5, so it resists turning over and finishes with a dependable fade.
What's the difference between Prism Plasma and Plasma plastic?
Prism Plasma pairs a Proton rim with the core material for a candy-color look. Standard Plasma uses Axiom's color GYRO rims with a metallic core.
What disc is similar to the Axiom Pyro?
The Axiom Balance (5/5/0/2) is a little less overstable. MVP places it between the Pyro and the MVP Reactor.
How far does the Axiom Pyro fly?
With an average arm, expect roughly 275 feet. Distance depends heavily on your power and form, so stronger throwers will go farther and newer players shorter.
