DX rim with champ/star core would be fine for midranges or slower, but I could definitely see the inverse being a better option for drivers.

Because in ten years the sales will prove just that?
Sales of something doesn't always equate to how good or bad a product is.

Are you a lawyer? Lots of people buy Coke but they were banned in schools years ago. Many new players will buy a boss, even though they can't throw it 250'. MVP sells tons to folks on DGCR :doh:

No it needs to live.
Classic Innova here guys, gimmick disc after gimmick disc. First it was the Epic, next it was the Teebird and now this. It's just sad that they continue to waste everyone's time and money. :|

But could a DX core take the shock of a full speed impact? I know the champ/star rim mold would be fine, but wouldn't the core fold in on itself because of impact and therefore the disc wouldn't hold up too well?

^^The exposed rivets in the grip/release area should probably be R-Pro.

I'm not "super" knowledgeable about chemical properties of plastic but I can tell you that bonding/adhering an overmold made out of any kind of traditional disc golf plastic to a flight plate made out of the standard DX would be extremely difficult. Even after the production difficulty, the disc probably would not last very long. It's a solid idea in theory...but as of now I can't see it happening.

Innova's crap discs. I'm about to go watch Atlas Shrugged because that's how I feel about this disc. "Meh" :|

People like you, are the reason people like me buy and throw MVP
I don't think anyone throws MVP because they have an overmold, they just make very good, competitive and consistent discs that people enjoy throwing more than other products on the market.
MVP is more than just innovative with an overmold (they are the first ones to do it correctly and successfully), but they use math and physics to make discs fly as efficiently as possible. One of the owners is a Physics/Math major.
The only thing that pisses me off is when people act with total ignorance or close mindedness.
Can't wait to give the Innova Atlas a try, but the injection stubs under the rim are a huge turn off right away... not sure why innova chose to do that.

You mean like the MVP superfans that are freaking out that Innova is trying to steal MVP's ideas?
