    Awesome video. I am 90% Gyro. You are well on your way! The one thing you said that MVP is great at is the discs are so consistent run to run. If I loose one, I grab another and they fly the same, every time. Plastic matters but the same plastic and same mold are so consistent it is amazing. Like someone else said, keep playing and see what you think after 2 or 3 months.

    Completely agree about consitent form. I have the same issues when I start getting tired and losing focus. At these times the discs don't flip like you want them. So the key is learning to throw consistently and when you do you will be rewarded.

    I do not throw too much mvp but I did get a crave, uplink, and an insanity in a mystery box. I just love the crave. I use it for mostly my straight shots about 270-325 feet. It is just gold. It gets the nod of approval from my card mates when I thread that disc through the trees.
    I really need to get me some envys though. That should be next on the disc to get.

I use Deflector for a Justice replacement. Love the Matrix in Electron. A glow Reactor is also a great mid. I didn’t mesh with the Hex. Motion is also a good Raptor type disc but essentially a fireball. Surprised at the Volt, but understand. Servo and Crave combo is very nice too.

    First impressions is the fly more stable to overstable than I expect, given disc weight and/or profile. For me that makes them my goto for throwing into a headwind or downhill.

But here is the problem, I have now been convinced that I should try all of these discs. The only Gyro I own is a Nomad, other than that, I have none. It is about to be very expensive for me, LOL!

    For the wave (or any flex disc for that matter), it might be worth trying a few in a mix of weights / plastics to find your sweet flex spot for your preferred speed of throw. Recently did that experiment myself and it was amazing to see how reliable each is when throwing at different speeds, each having it’s own unique flex flight. They bomb when you find the right one.

    Great vid...would be nice to know which discs you were throwing during some of those shots to be able to put the disc to the flight path. Love my eclipse reactor...super good on both sides of the body.

    Fission wave is great for effortless distance. It was the first disk I got a good hyzer flip out of. I want a new one as I through mine out of the baseball field I was practicing in over a stream and into a dog park, had a couple good bites in it when I got back. Also thanks for the dark horse jawbreaker undertaker at Charleston Hunter!

    Been throwing only gyro for 2 years now and I love it more and more.

    I picked up the gyropaloza box just to check out their discs and half the box went in my bag hahaha I am a noodle arm and their mids and putters are amazing!!! Now I understand why when I get into the hybrid/distance driver I was having issues!

    I didn't set out to have an all gyro bag, but after trying out a fission Tesla like 2 years ago other MVP/Axiom moulds have slowly trickled into my bag to the point where gyro makes up a good 80%. Still bag a Berg, Reko, Kaxe Z, but everything else is gyro. Love the fission Wave and fission Crave, or any plastic Crave for that matter.

    To test once and for all if gyro technology actually makes discs go farther and not just mvp has some good far flying molds they need to release some gyro discs as streamline and test them against each other
