Axiom Plasma Insanity 9 | 5 | -2 | 1.5
The Axiom Plasma Insanity combines one of the most reliable 9-speed control drivers in disc golf with a stunning metallic sheen and a comfortable, slightly softer plastic feel. Widely known as a "worn-in" MVP Inertia right off the rack, the Insanity is built for smooth hyzer-flips, gliding turnover lines, and laser-straight fairway drives. Molded in Axiom's premium Plasma plastic, this version flies remarkably true to its factory flight numbers out of the box while offering a eye-catching, color-shifting appearance on the fairway. Whether you need a point-and-shoot driver for tight woods lines or an easy distance option for open holes, the Plasma Insanity is a absolute joy to throw.

Flight Numbers
The Insanity hits that ideal middle ground between a fairway driver and a high-speed bomber. At 9 speed, its rim width feels comfortable in hands of all sizes. The 5 glide keeps the disc floating down the fairway, while the -2 turn lets it drift into a gentle, distance-maximizing flex before finishing with a soft, forward-pushing 1.5 fade at the tail end of its flight.
| Speed | Glide | Turn | Fade |
|---|---|---|---|
| 9 | 5 | -2 | 1.5 |
How the Plasma Insanity flies on the course:
- Average Arm Speeds: Thrown flat, expect a dead-straight flight with a subtle flex through the middle and a soft, gentle landing. It’s an easy-to-control driver for pushing past 300 feet.
- Power Throwers: Perfect for popping up flat from a hyzer angle, pushing long turnover lines down tight wooded gaps, or hitting floating tailwind drives.
- GYRO Overmold Rim: Axiom's dual-mold design places high-density plastic along the outer rim, helping the disc maintain its spin rate and hold its flight line longer downfield.
It excels at:
- Smooth hyzer-flips that pop up flat and glide straight down narrow tree gaps.
- Long, sweeping turnover shots that drift right without burning over into a roller.
- Tailwind drives where you want an understable driver to catch the air and float.
Plasma Plastic Performance
Plasma is Axiom’s semi-gummy, metallic plastic blend featuring metallic swirls and a color-shifting sheen. In terms of feel, Plasma gives you a slightly softer, tackier grip in the hand compared to standard Neutron or Proton plastics, which feels fantastic in cold or damp conditions. It offers just enough flex under thumb pressure to give you a clean, confident release, while maintaining the durable, tree-resistant qualities you expect from Axiom's premium polymers. On the course, Plasma Insanity runs fly true to their numbers with a smooth, predictable flight out of the box.
How Plasma Compares Across the Insanity Lineup
- Vs the Neutron Insanity: Both Plasma and Neutron fly true to the stamped -2 turn / 1.5 fade. Plasma offers a flashier metallic look and a slightly softer, tackier hand feel.
- Vs the Proton Insanity & Cosmic Neutron Insanity: Proton and Cosmic Neutron runs cool down a bit stiffer out of the mold, giving them a fraction more high-speed stability and torque resistance compared to Plasma.
- Vs the Fission Insanity: Fission uses micro-bubbles in the core for lighter weights and a much flippier flight path—ideal for slower arm speeds or sky-high turnovers.
- Vs the Eclipse Insanity: The Eclipse glow version is significantly more overstable (flying closer to a 9 / 5 / 0 / 2 meathook), whereas Plasma keeps the true, workable Insanity flight path with plenty of glide.
Frequently Asked Questions About the Plasma Insanity
Does Plasma plastic feel softer than Neutron plastic?
Yes, slightly. Plasma plastic has a bit more flex in hand and a slightly tackier texture, making it a favorite for throwers who like a slightly gummier feel without sacrificing rim durability.
Is the Plasma Insanity good for beginners?
Yes. The Insanity is one of the most recommended 9-speed control drivers for beginner and intermediate players because its -2 turn helps moderate arms get extra distance and straight flight out of the box.
Does Plasma plastic beat in quickly?
No. Like all Axiom premium plastics, Plasma is extremely durable against tree hits and rough landings, holding onto its sweet-spot stability for seasons of play.
