MVP Disc Golf Neutron Nitro Distance Driver 13/4/-0.5/3 - Choose Exact Disc
Description
The MVP Neutron Nitro distance driver is MVP's high-speed, stable-overstable distance driver, molded in Neutron plastic. It's built for power throwers who want a turn-resistant driver with a guaranteed fade, and it's at its best on long drives that cover ground and finish with a fade. If you're shopping for a dependable Nitro for your bag, this Neutron run is a great place to start.
Neutron Plastic
Neutron is MVP's most popular plastic and its flagship blend. It's opaque with a premium look and feel and a dependable grip, and it comes in the widest selection of bright colors, which makes your Nitro easy to spot in the rough. Neutron shares the high durability of Proton, so it holds its flight for a long time instead of wearing in quickly. It comes with a black GYRO rim for better line holding.
The Mold
The Nitro is a 21.1 cm distance driver with a 23 mm rim. The Nitro follows the same general stability lineage as the Servo, Volt, Tesla, and Photon, with a turn-resistant profile that covers ground and guarantees a fade finish. Power throwers will find a workable, responsive shallow turn. Average throwers may need lighter weights or a headwind to get what little turn the Nitro offers.
Stability
The Nitro is stable-to-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 for intermediate to advanced players with good arm speed.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 13 | Very high speed that needs strong arm speed to fly as rated. |
| Glide | 4 | Moderate glide that carries without sailing past the target. |
| Turn | -0.5 | 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. |
