How many disc testers do you know that don't want to talk about what they are testing? Especially if it's already announced and being ordered...I don't see MVP just passing them out. Their cousin Preston tests for them locally, and he's got a cannon arm (in other words, he could put a Proton Volt somewhere far away where it couldn't be found).

I am sure MVP has some locals testing that would make sense. She is a girl maybe someone wants to impress her with their fancy plastic company. The bros are dudes too. There are many explanations for her not wanting to talk. Maybe dude looks like a weirdo. I know I do when I am drooling about a disc.
I always give my MVP discs out to girls b/c they think its sexy plus they get my number too.
lol.
lol.
There's some entertaining imagery within this post, but I HIGHLY doubt the brothers are going to give a proto to a girl to impress her. This whole bit is completely silly, but I'm sticking with my first lost disc theory.

It's intended to be silly discspeed. And if the brothers are not using MVP to get tail I am severely disappointed. I know I would be!!
And who is to say she cannot bomb? I play with a girl that can keep up with us, she is driving leopards over 300 and can putt the lights out. Soo.........

This sounds great to me...Pretty much describes the original proto Volts I threw last summer. Hopefully this will shore up the couple of lines that I've been missing since switching out my arsenal of PDs for the MVP lineup.
I'm back in MI after 7 years in FL.
I got to throw and watch a whole bunch of Proton Volts today. The 6 I was throwing were all different colors and weighed 172-175. The plastic feels exactly the P and E Tangents (nice and grippy).
Very interesting disc...Much more HSS than the Neutron Volts, yet it is not any more LSS. It flies straight from a flat release across wind conditions. We were ripping them hard into moderate headwinds ( I throw 400+ and Brad has more snap than me) and they weren't budging. Wrist rolls are unforgiving as the disc is just straight straight straight and holds forever. They fade very late, but they hold any amount of hyzer given. They seemed more tolerant of OAT than the Neutrons, though that may just be the stability...Whatever it was, it handled my FH much better than the Ns.
Distance-wise it was hard to compare as I could just rip into the Protons with abandon, where I have to work my N Volt more carefully. Mike C is going to go crazy with these...450'?

hueeeyyyyyy!! Oh man cannot wait!! Thanks Speed!!
Now the fairway lineup is very solid with N Amp, N Volt, P Volt, N Shock...No more gaps, though I think a beat up Shock is needed in there if you want to get more EX type lines. The Proton Volt is much more TB than EX, and more like a dx TB than a premium one in it's absurd straightness.

PD fan here. Any similarities between the two? A teebeagle mix? Any turn at all? Thanks for the feedback.
I think the PD is a bit faster and longer, and has more turn and more fade. I did not turn a Volt from flat at all today.

how far where you throwing it?
I was on a really hilly course that I only play a couples times a year, so it was really hard to reference. It felt like my good power rips were in the 380'+ range. When Brad connected he was getting them farther than me.
