MVP Disc Golf Plasma Motion Distance Driver 9/3.5/0/4 - Choose Exact Disc
SKU: DG-MVP-LS-MOT (REF361-8)
Description
The MVP Plasma Motion distance driver is MVP's overstable 9-speed utility driver, molded in Plasma plastic. It's built for forehand throwers, high-power throwers, and anyone needing headwind control, and it's at its best on long straight drives with a reliable fade and forehand power shots. If you're shopping for a dependable Motion for your bag, this Plasma run is a great place to start.
Plasma Plastic
Plasma is MVP's specialty premium blend, known for its metallic sheen and color-shift options. It's a semi-gummy, flexible polymer with superb grip, and MVP says few premium materials grip this well. It's also highly durable, so your Motion will hold its flight for a long time. Plasma is a great choice if you want premium durability with a little more grip and flex than Neutron or Proton. The Motion is also available in Neutron.
The Mold
The Motion is a 21.1 cm distance driver with an 18.5 mm rim. The Motion is designed to resist turnover from power or headwind during a long, straight travel, followed by a reliable fade. Fans of the Resistor will find extended distance with familiar characteristics. Average-power throwers get a utility driver, while high-power throwers get a trustworthy straight-to-overstable workhorse. Forehand throwers will find its overstability especially useful for torque resistance.
Stability
The Motion 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 | 9 | Distance-driver speed that needs good arm speed to fly as rated. |
| Glide | 3.5 | Moderate glide that carries without sailing past the target. |
| Turn | 0 | No high-speed turn, so it holds its line early in flight. |
| Fade | 4 | A strong, reliable fade to the left (RHBH) at the end of the flight. |

FAQ
Is the MVP Motion good for beginners?
It's better as a second or third driver. The Motion's overstability means newer players will see a quick fade, though it's a great utility disc as your game grows.
Is the MVP Motion overstable?
Yes. The Motion is overstable, rated 9/3.5/0/4, so it resists turning over and finishes with a dependable fade.
What's the difference between Plasma and Neutron plastic?
Plasma is semi-gummy with a metallic sheen and some of the best grip in MVP's premium lineup. Neutron is firmer and opaque. Both are highly durable.
What disc is similar to the MVP Motion?
The MVP Neutron Phase (11/3.5/0/4) is MVP's overstable 11-speed with a similar wind-fighting flight.
How far does the MVP Motion 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.
