Axiom Discs
SKU: DG-AXM-E-INS (REF2162-12)
Description
The Axiom Eclipse Insanity distance driver is Axiom's stable-to-understable 9-speed distance driver, molded in Eclipse plastic. It's built for average-power players who want straight distance and power players who want easy flips and turnovers, and it's at its best on straight distance drives, flip-ups, and turnovers. If you're shopping for a dependable Insanity for your bag, this Eclipse run is a great place to start.
Eclipse Glow Plastic
Eclipse is the premium glow plastic, built with the ultra-bright Glow Core 2.0 for visibility day or night. It's highly durable, so your Insanity will have a long, consistent life, and it's a top pick for glow rounds and evening leagues. MVP notes that Eclipse offers an alternate flight compared to its other premium plastics, so it may fly a little differently than the same mold in Neutron or Proton.
The Mold
The Insanity is a 21.1 cm distance driver with an 18.5 mm rim. It is best described as a worn-in MVP Inertia, with a little more high-speed turn and a diminished fade. Its softened profile mimics a more worn-in disc. Average-power throwers get a remarkably straight distance driver, while high-power throwers can execute precise flip and turnover lines with ease.
Stability
The Insanity 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

| Speed | 9 | 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 | 1.5 | A moderate, dependable fade at the end of the flight. |
