The first official 10-speed driver in the MVP lineup, the Trail is a stable-understable distance driver that, as you might expect of a Conrad disc, excels in hyzer-flip drives and turnovers. Releasing with flight numbers of 10 | 5 | -1 | 1, throwers of all power levels will find the Trail to be an exceptionally responsive driver for a variety of shot shapes, making the Trail a phenomenal disc for all skill levels.
The MVP Fission Trail distance driver is James Conrad's stable-understable 10-speed driver, molded in Fission plastic. It's built for throwers of all power levels, and it's at its best on hyzer-flip drives and turnovers. This listing is the James Conrad Team Series release of the Trail, so you get the same trusted flight with a collectible look.
Fission Plastic
Fission is MVP's breakthrough lightweight plastic. Its Fission Microbubble Technology creates an ultralight Neutron core with evenly distributed, imperceptible microbubbles, which lets MVP put an even denser GYRO overmold on the rim. The result is a light throwing weight with a substantial feel and improved durability over other bubble plastics. Fission is opaque with a matte finish, and it's a great way to get extra distance from your Trail without the floppy feel of typical lightweight discs. The Trail is also available in Neutron, Particle Proton and Proton.
The Mold
The Trail is a 21.2 cm distance driver with a 20 mm rim. The Trail is the first official 10-speed driver in the MVP lineup, and, like you'd expect from a Conrad disc, it excels at hyzer-flip drives and turnovers. Throwers of all power levels will find it exceptionally responsive for a variety of shot shapes.
Stability
The Trail 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 | 10 | 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 | -1 | A touch of high-speed turn to the right (RHBH) for a little extra distance. |
| Fade | 1 | Very little fade, so it finishes nearly straight. |

FAQ
Is the MVP Trail good for beginners?
Yes. MVP calls the Trail a phenomenal disc for all skill levels.
Is the MVP Trail overstable?
No. The Trail is stable-to-understable, rated 10/5/-1/1. It has 1 turn, so it's built for turnovers and hyzer-flips rather than hard fades.
What's the difference between Fission and Neutron plastic?
Fission uses a microbubble Neutron core to make the disc lighter while increasing the GYRO effect. Standard Neutron is heavier and has the widest color selection.
What disc is similar to the MVP Trail?
The MVP Fission Inertia (9/5/-2/2) is a 9-speed with a similar responsive flight and a little more fade.
How far does the MVP Trail fly?
With an average arm, expect roughly 360 feet. Distance depends heavily on your power and form, so stronger throwers will go farther and newer players shorter.
