MVP Disc Golf Plasma Wave Distance Driver 11/5/-2/2 - Choose Exact Disc
SKU: DG-MVP-LS-WVE (REF915-56)
Description
The MVP Plasma Wave distance driver is MVP's stable-understable 11-speed distance driver, molded in Plasma plastic. It's built for players across the power spectrum, and it's at its best on gliding turnovers, hyzer-flips, and extended distance lines. If you're shopping for a dependable Wave 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 Wave 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 Wave is also available in Cosmic Neutron, Eclipse, Fission and Neutron.
The Mold
The Wave is a 21.1 cm distance driver with a 21 mm rim. MVP describes the Wave as a longer Inertia, with a stable-understable flight and responsiveness that make it useful across the power spectrum. It's available from 145 to 175 grams, and players often bag it in two or more weights for shot variety. Power throws produce long, gliding turnovers and hyzer-flip gut shots, while average throws extend everything from anhyzers to headwind-assisted turnovers.
Stability
The Wave is stable-to-understable. Understable discs turn away from your throwing arm at speed, making turnovers and hyzer-flips easier and helping lower-power players fly straight. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it tends to drift right during the fastest part of its flight, then shows a gentle fade back to the left at the end. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, drifting left early and fading right at the end. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It suits beginners who need help getting straight flights as well as advanced players who want to shape turnovers.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 11 | Distance-driver speed that needs good arm speed to fly as rated. |
| Glide | 5 | Lots of glide to help it stay in the air and add distance. |
| Turn | -2 | Noticeable turn to the right (RHBH) at speed, great for turnovers and hyzer-flips. |
| Fade | 2 | A moderate, dependable fade at the end of the flight. |

- MVP Neutron Phase (11/3.5/0/4): An overstable 11-speed for wind.
FAQ
Is the MVP Wave good for beginners?
Yes. MVP says the Wave is useful across the power spectrum, and lighter weights make it even easier for newer players.
Is the MVP Wave overstable?
No. The Wave is stable-to-understable, rated 11/5/-2/2. It has 2 turn, so it's built for turnovers and hyzer-flips rather than hard fades.
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 Wave?
The MVP Plasma Catalyst (13/5.5/-2/2) is MVP's longer, faster version of a similar flight.
How far does the MVP Wave 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.
