A little more turn in the high-speed slot.
The MVP Fission Octane pairs a wide-rimmed distance mold with Fission's microbubble-core construction. Its version-specific 13 / 5 / -1.5 / 2 flight numbers reflect a touch more turn than the Octane in other plastics, opening up another way to shape long drives.
It is still a demanding speed-thirteen driver. The extra turn makes this version distinct, but it does not replace the throwing speed and clean release needed to access its intended flight.
More movement before the finish
In MVP's testing, the Fission Octane showed slightly more turn than other plastic versions. Powerful throwers can explore hyzer-flips and extended distance lines, while players with more moderate power may see a shallower turning phase before the fade.
Release angle and conditions help determine the shape. Give the disc room to develop its line rather than expecting every throw to follow the flight numbers exactly.
- High-power distance: Explore forward carry with a turning phase before the finishing fade.
- Hyzer-flip drives: Find the release angle that brings the disc toward flat at your speed.
- Tailwind lines: Practice shaped distance shots with space to glide.
- An alternative Octane slot: Choose Fission when its additional published turn fits your lineup.
What Fission brings to the mold
Fission uses a microbubble core to reduce core weight and emphasize the relative weight of the overmold. That construction allows lighter-weight options within the Octane lineup while retaining the mold's wide-rimmed distance-driver identity.
The Octane belongs to MVP's 23 mm distance-driver class. Hand fit matters alongside speed: lighter weight does not make a wide rim feel like a slower control driver.
Learn the turn, then choose the tee shot
On an open practice field, compare a smooth flat throw with a modest hyzer release. Watch where the Fission Octane starts moving and how much room its finish needs. That familiar response can become a useful choice on a wide fairway instead of simply reaching for your fastest disc.
It suits experienced players exploring a more workable high-speed distance option. Developing players may still get more useful distance from a slower driver, and a more turn-resistant complement remains useful when wind or the shot calls for it.
