Hearing about the stability variances between the MVP drivers, I guess you could pick up an Amp and it could fly more stable than some Shocks.

I own 6 Amps and they are all about the same. They turn for a while and then fade back slightly at the end.
On the other hand, the Shock doesnt turn at all for me, it will briefly flip a little but no real turn. and harder fade than a Volt, and certainly much harder fade than an Amp.
I think the first run Amps had some issues, i did have one that didnt want to turn or hold a turn at all, it was a white one. Ever since they have been consistent for me.
The Amp is the only disc i dont use regularly from MVP, i find the river to fit my turining fairway slot better.

What is the overall consensus from DGR concerning the Shock?

According to our data sources (one of which is the MVP tester data), the Shock has more high speed turn than the Volt, but more low speed fade. Based on those throwers in the know, it's supposed to be fairly similar to an EL and somewhere between these:
Eagle • Shock • Orion LF • Polaris LF
Well gott shock in the mail and I didn't have a ton of time with it. It was windy and cold yesterday.
But for me it can't handle head winds very well at all. Which is the biggest disappointment of the disc. Because that's and MVP still doesn't have an overstable disc for headwinds.
For me I couldn't tell much of a different between this an the volt. Only different I saw was shock was a touch more lss. But again in my opinion who cares if its still a flippy a curving disc.

Sounds nice, I've been meaning to try these. Do they ever have anything under 160g in their line-up?
Here's a video showing the two different runs of Shocks.

The Shock is replacing my PDs. It has similar speed (maybe like .25 slower) and range with a flight that only some of the nicest PDs are capable of. It's great in the wind and more dependable than pretty much any other non-meathook disc I can think of when thrown with anny. Considering also what a PITA it has been to keep a stock of my favorite PDs I'm ecstatic that MVP has created(and fixed) the Shock.
