I'm going to have some of my noodle armed friends throw it in the next couple days to see how it flies for them.

If Mike is throwing them on axis-esque lines over 400, with clean form, then count on it to be more stable at slower speeds
I've had two preordered from communitydiscs.com for a few weeks now and was excited to hear they are releasing soon. But hearing it called a speed 9 axis has me really excited and now it's going to be a long couple of weeks till they are on my door step

Official noodle-arm testerQuestion for Mike C and other testers: In your opinion, how would the Volt fly for us earthlings who can only throw 400' down a ski slope in a 50 mph tailwind? In other words, is it noodle arm friendly?
It's mildly overstable for me. I throw nothing faster than OLFs and it flies like my most beefy one, a heavy QOLF that I carry for headwind-straight, FH, and fadey shots. It's my only OLF that will fight out of almost anything, and in my bag it's between my straight-stable SOLF and the utility-ish Champ FB.
We're gonna be seeing reviews from (hopefully) many people who are not testers soon

Have you thrown it in wind? How far does your noodle arm throw OLFs?
Heavy crosswinds. Kind of a garbage video. Me and my buddy chip filmed 18 or so at Arboretum and it's gonna be a nice video. Will try to get it up by midnight.
These fly like a well worn olf for me, little less overstable with more d and glide. Should be dead straight to fade for lower power players.

I had pretty limited testing yesterday. Tomorrow we're gonna take them to the DN driving range and test 'em. I'll bring my bag to get a familiar comparison.

Can't tell if your camera is constantly zooming, or I'm having a seizure. I'd love to be able to see their full flight in your video so I can compare to what mine were doing.
Glad I'm not alone there. I was thinking the same thing! Still cool though, trippy clouds and all.

I think it's the camera auto adjusting the contrast, from the close up shots of primarily one color to a wide colorful shot. Though it may be zooming slowly too.
That was a video editor effect I thought might make it easier to see where the disc landed. The other video is 1000x better haha.
Thanks, just checking since pdga #'s are supposedly suspect.
That sounds pretty sweet and kind of interesting since it's a little departure from MVP debuting overstable-stable molds (Ion, Vector) before stable-understable counterparts (Anode, Axis).Mike C said:

I can see the full flight on Mike's video.. definitely more turn than I expected which makes me happy as it won't compete with my PD's. It'll be interesting to see how they compete with Mike's QOLF's.
Ditto. Sweet! Got four coming my way now (had to add the hot pink!). One is for my brother-in-law.
