Axiom Discs
SKU: DG-AXM-PLC-N-FIR (REF2756-1)
Description
The Axiom Neutron Fireball distance driver is Axiom's overstable 9-speed utility driver, molded in Neutron plastic. It's built for forehand throwers and anyone who needs a disc that has to fade, and it's at its best on power forehands, wind-fighting backhands, and hard fades.
Neutron Plastic
Neutron is the most popular plastic in the MVP and Axiom lineup and their flagship blend. It's opaque with a premium look and feel, and it comes in the widest selection of bright colors, which makes your Fireball easy to find in any terrain. Neutron shares the great durability of Proton, so it holds its flight for a long time instead of wearing in quickly. Paired with Axiom's colorful GYRO rims, it's as good looking as it is dependable.
What Is Project Lab Coat?
Project Lab Coat (PLC) is the visual refresh of the MVP Disc Sports and Axiom Discs lineups, MVP's commitment to making sure their discs are the best they can be today, not what made sense a decade ago. Most MVP and Axiom stock stamps were 10 to 15 years old, so PLC brings fresh designs built on MVP's multi-foil stamping. Axiom Neutron stamps are getting a complete overhaul with a fresh concept. Axiom keeps its signature colorful GYRO rims, and black rims are joining the Axiom color mix.
Why it's a win: the flight and plastic don't change. PLC discs come from the same molds and plastic, made in the same Marlette, Michigan facility, so this Fireball flies just like the pre-PLC "Classics," with a fresh, modern look.
The Mold
The Fireball is a 21.1 cm distance driver with an 18.5 mm rim. It is a staple in GYRO bags for a reason. Whether you're looking for power forehands, wind-fighting backhands, or a disc that simply has to fade, it delivers with dependable torque resistance and a strong finish.
Stability
The Fireball 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 | 3.5 | A strong, reliable fade to the left (RHBH) at the end of the flight. |

FAQ
Is the Axiom Fireball good for beginners?
It's better as a utility disc. The Fireball's strong fade is great for wind and forehands, but newer players will want a straighter driver first.
Is the Axiom Fireball overstable?
Yes. The Fireball is overstable, rated 9/3.5/0/3.5, so it resists turning over and finishes with a dependable fade.
What's the difference between Neutron and Proton plastic?
Neutron is opaque with the widest color selection, while Proton is translucent with similar durability and slightly more grip. Both hold their flight for a long time.
Does Project Lab Coat change how the Fireball flies?
No. MVP says Project Lab Coat is solely a visual refresh. The Fireball is made in the same mold, from the same plastic, in the same facility, so it flies exactly the same.
What disc is similar to the Axiom Fireball?
The Axiom Panic (13/4/-0.5/3) is a 13-speed overstable driver for even more distance.
How far does the Axiom Fireball 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.
