MVP Impulse 🥏 Glidey Understable Distance Driver

Q: Is the MVP Impulse a good disc for backhands?

Yes, it’s great for backhands, especially for hyzer flips, turnovers, and shaping lines with control.

Q: Is the MVP Impulse a good disc for forehands?

It can work for touch forehands, but it’s not ideal for powerful forehand throws due to its high turn.

Q: Does the MVP Impulse handle the wind well?

Not really. It struggles in strong headwinds because of its understability and high glide, but it performs well in tailwinds and calm conditions where you can take full advantage of its easy turn and long glide.

MVP Impulse Flight Review

The MVP Impulse is a controllable understable distance driver that brings effortless glide and easy distance to your game. It’s perfect for players who want a disc that turns smoothly without needing a high-power throw. The Impulse responds well to clean releases and rewards finesse with long, shaping flights.

When released, it flips up from a hyzer and holds a gentle turn, gliding forward with minimal resistance. It finishes with a soft fade that adds control without cutting off your line. Right-handed backhand throwers will enjoy its natural finish to the right.

The Impulse performs best in the hands of players who value control and shot shaping. Newer players can use it to gain distance and build confidence in their driver game. More experienced throwers will enjoy its smooth flights on hyzer flips, long turnovers, and low-power placement shots.

The Impulse completes our 20mm-wing distance driver class. This class of controllable distance drivers all have a wide weight range from 155g to 175g. This allows for an unmatched GYRO™ Push to give throwers increased control in their distance drives. The Impulse’s understable profile will allow high-power throwers to achieve controllable hyzerflips that will carry far and accurately. Its Neutral to Understable flight for even low power throwers will allow for reliably straight to turnover distance lines with accuracy.
