SKU: DG-AXM-NSL-TL (REF1575-82)
Description
The Axiom Neutron Time-Lapse distance driver is the first Simon Line disc and MVP's first 12-speed GYRO driver, molded in Neutron plastic. It's built for high-power players chasing controllable max distance and lower-power players who want a controlled-distance driver, and it's at its best on massive, controllable max-distance drives.
Neutron Plastic
Neutron is the most popular plastic in the MVP and Axiom lineup and their flagship blend. It's opaque with a premium look and feel, and it comes in the widest selection of bright colors, which makes your Time-Lapse easy to find in any terrain. Neutron shares the great durability of Proton, so it holds its flight for a long time instead of wearing in quickly. Paired with Axiom's colorful GYRO rims, it's as good looking as it is dependable. The Time-Lapse is also available in Fission.
The Simon Line
No one has approached disc golf quite like Simon Lizotte, taking risks and turning conventional thinking upside down. The Simon Line follows that same drive: to carry Simon's name, a disc has to perform unlike any other.
The Time-Lapse was the first Simon Line disc and the first 12-speed driver with GYRO overmold technology. MVP says the first 12-speed from MVP absolutely had to be perfect, and at 12/5/-1/3 they think it is. Other discs in the Simon Line include the Axiom Pixel, Axiom Bokeh, and Axiom Balance.
The Mold
The Time-Lapse is a 21.2 cm distance driver with a 22 mm rim. Simon designed the Time-Lapse to feature the best of what a 12-speed can offer. It has enough glide and turn to generate truly massive flights, with the right amount of fade to keep them predictable and controllable. The 22 mm rim is a middle ground between speed and comfort, and the gentle dome feels great for backhand drives while adding glide.
Stability
The Time-Lapse is stable. Stable discs fly straight for most of their flight and finish with a dependable fade. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it flies straight with a reliable fade to the left at the end. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, with the 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 suits players of every skill level who want a predictable flight.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 12 | Very high speed that needs strong arm speed to fly as rated. |
| Glide | 5 | Lots of glide to help it stay in the air and add distance. |
| Turn | -1 | A touch of high-speed turn to the right (RHBH) for a little extra distance. |
| Fade | 3 | A strong, reliable fade to the left (RHBH) at the end of the flight. |

- Axiom Neutron Bokeh (7/6/0/1): A stable, high-glide Simon Line fairway driver.
- Axiom Neutron Balance (5/5/0/2): A Simon Line midrange with dependable overstability for wind.
- Axiom Neutron Defy (11/5/-1/3): A stable-overstable driver for line-locking power drives.
FAQ
Is the Axiom Time-Lapse good for beginners?
It can work for lower-power players, who MVP says will love it as a controlled-distance driver and even a wind fighter.
Is the Axiom Time-Lapse overstable?
Not really. The Time-Lapse is stable, rated 12/5/-1/3, so it flies straight with a dependable fade rather than the hard hook of an overstable disc.
What's the difference between Neutron and Proton plastic?
Neutron is opaque with the widest color selection, while Proton is translucent with similar durability and slightly more grip. Both hold their flight for a long time.
What disc is similar to the Axiom Time-Lapse?
The Axiom Time-Lapse (Retooled) (12/5/-1/2) is the newer version, retooled with a little less fade for a workhorse max-distance flight.
How far does the Axiom Time-Lapse fly?
With an average arm, expect roughly 395 feet. Distance depends heavily on your power and form, so stronger throwers will go farther and newer players shorter.
