i feel like this is a motion jr. for my arm speed. i can throw it flat and hard and it will fly hard and straight and the hook up hard and skip pretty aggressive when i put some anny on it or throw it into a headwind i can trust it to come back every time its a great first meat hook! 

After reading these reviews I was nervous to try one out. Got it in the MVP challenge this year. Gotta say, does exactly what its supposed to do. Overstable control. Love it! Predictable flight every time. I parked plenty of holes with this disc. Can rip on it and it holds that line, doesn't get flippy even with slight headwinds. Good glide distance with the right amount of fade.

Plastic durability is crazy. Smashed into a couple trees hard and you can't even find a mark...  

Made it into my bag after the round. Dont see it coming out anytime soon. 

This is a great disc but the turn and fade numbers are not accurate. I am an open player and these numbers may apply to beginners, but that's all. I would say it fly's with a turn of -1, and a fade of 2. 

I was not impressed with the Shock at all. It's supposed to be over-stable in its flight, but the ones I picked up were incredibly under-stable. From what I understand, the first runs were far less over-stable than the 2nd/3rd runs, but not being able to tell a 1st run from a 2nd/3rd run is impossible, so you never know which one you're buying.

I have thrown 3 Shocks and all of them were massively under-stable for what they're supposed to be.

2 stars because it does have a surprisingly high amount of glide. Was getting these flippy Shocks out to 420ft.

This disc has worked really well for me. I like to use it for both RHBH as well as side arm throws. Being able to use it for both throws really helps to keep me out of trouble because I can go left then have it fade right or go right and then have it fade left. This disc has a nice fade to it and has really helped my game.

I use this as a utility fairway driver when I need to fight a headwind with a good fade at the end , spike hyzers, or low shots that need a good skip fade at the end. A good disc that I rely on in multiple situations.

This might be one of the more underrated discs in the MVP line up. While the Volt gets a lot of attention ( and perhaps rightfully so), the Shock shouldn't be over looked. For advanced players (like myself) this disc is a predictably stable control driver. For players with slower arm speeds this will be a controlable overstable driver that fights the wind. Those who love the flight of the Teebird or Eagle but wish it would fly a little further will also love this disc. I have often thought of the Shock as a longer version of the Eagle -x mold (another staple of my bag). No matter whether you are a backhand or forehand player the Shock will be a consistent and predictable flyer that you will reach for again and again.    

I have a 174 gram neutron shock and I love it. When I really crank on it I get a little bit of turn out of it. When I need someting more over stable then my volt I can pull out my shock and know exaclty what it's going to do.

Everyone needs at least one crazy overstanble driver, right? Well, at least I do. The Shock is actually very similar to the MVP Servo, but the difference is the speed and snap. I throw the MVP Shock and Servo for the same style hard hook shots, the difference is when I want the fade to kick in. This disc also flys identical to my Discraft Predator. As a primarly MVP and Axiom thrower, this is my prefered overstable driver from MVP.

I use the Shock as my OS Fairway Driver. It has a reliable fade and handles the wind well. I don't have a big arm, 250 to 300 is my normal drive and this flies pretty close to the numbers for me. If you've got a huge throw then this probably isn't the disc for you but for the rest of us "normal" people this is a great disc.

I'd like to revise a previous review I made about my 173 neutron shock being above average. I have had it for 2 months now and it's not the same disc I tested out of the box. The high speed stability just isn't there like I thought would be. I have a hard time getting reliable flights out of it. It's attributes are very pedestrian. I don't think it does any one specific thing great, so out of the bag it goes.

Oh, I love my MVP discs. The Shock is not as overstable as I would like, but that seems to be my summation of both my Volt and Shock. I don't believe that are as overstable as the flightpaths indicate. That being said, it's an amazing disc, great distance and great control.

The MVP Shock is a very impressive disc. I've been throwing one around for a few weeks to see if MVP is deserving of all the hype. My conclusion is that this fairway driver handles the "control" part of my game exceptionally well. The flight paths are oh so smooth with tons of glide. Mine is a 172 red neutron. This Shock thrown on a hyzer release will give you plenty of hook fade. When thrown with a bit of hyzer or flat release it holds a long straight line with a pronounced fade at the end. Thrown with an anhyzer release will cause it to lazily wonder a little and then fade back to where it needs to be. It's a real treat to throw because the glide keeps things under control, even those times when they get away from you (OAT). It's astonishingly controllable for an overstable fairway driver. I have a couple scratches in the overmold rim, but it's held up pretty well so far. The rim is small and shallow and is just as slick as Champion or Z plastic with wet hands. Overall, this is a great overstable disc for tight fairways.

I contacted MVP about this disc and they had me ship it back for evaluation. No questions asked, I got a replacement about a week later with a couple extra goodies. Props to MVP for great customer service. Now on to the disc, it has now lived up to what I thought it was going to do. It will hold stable for a good distance and then have a predictable fade. Will definitely be making the bag.

I just got a shock and was rather disappointed. Mine seems to always turn over no matter what I do. Even with some hyzer and wrist roll it will go straight for about half the flight then just turn off right (RHBH). Maybe with some work I could get this line dialed in but wasn't the shot I was looking for with this disc. Maybe I just got a fluky one.

To say the MVP Shock gave me a shock just sounds a little cliche. However, I was initially surprised by the flight path of the Shock. From the videos I watched and the reviews some people wrote, I expected the Shock to be an overstable disc. The description given here on the website is very accurate, it is slightly more stable than the Volt, however both the inbounds flight guide and the videos I watched showed me something different than what I found. I have been playing disc golf for about 2 years now, really getting into it for a little over a year. I can throw distance drivers like the Shock about 325-375'. I went out and threw this disc in several different courses. Unfortunately it was rather windy in Southern Texas the last couple weeks. I found in the headwind the Shock turns over quite a bit, and the fade is reduced a little. I was able to get some distance (275-300') and once I learned its flight pattern was able to make great use of it. In a tailwind I was able to throw it flat and it had less turn, but still had turn, a lot more than I was led to believe. However in the case I was able to throw it 350'+. I threw it alongside my ESP Nuke by Discraft and in the slight tailwind it seemed to have similar flight paths. It was then that I realized the MVP Shock would probably not find its way into my bag, I love my Nuke and do not need another disc that is not as good in a headwind and similar in a tailwind. However, even comparing it to my Nuke is indeed a compliment. I have heard that there are two different Shock molds and that the second is more stable. I would love to try it out and see if it would fit in my bag. The one I got is wonderful, it has that great MVP feel and I feel confident when throwing the Shock. It is not the disc for me, but for those looking for something more stable than the Volt and like the MVP brand, then get this disc and get it now!

Let me start by saying that for some reason I really did not want to like the Shock. I got it so I could prove the hype wrong... Instead I found out there is hype for a reason. I've been playing for a little over a year now and have gone through my share of disc lines and found the ones I really like. I usually hesitate to try new discs once I find the ones I really like but I'm actually really glad I tried this one. I got a 169g Shock in Neutron plastic and right off the bat I really enjoyed the feel of the plastic in my hand, firm but grippy. I have a pretty big arm and have a hard time easing up on a lot of my mid range and fairway throws so I tend to prefer stable to over stable discs. That being said I threw this bad boy with some hesitation at first since I didn't want it to turn and burn. I was very surprised at how fluid this disc turns and fades. Once I got the feel of it I was able to control it with with a hyzer flip (RHBH) and have it glide straight with a slight fade at the end. I was averaging around 375' and wish I had more fairway disc experience to compare that to but I've mostly used mid range discs for most fairway shots. Pros: Very controllable, beautiful to watch it fly, beginner friendly, nice plastic Cons: I only have one, but seriously there is not much I don't like except that in a head wind it becomes more flippy (but that is true for most any understable disc) I'll finish by saying that this disc really surprised me and I'm very glad I gave it a try. It flies very similar to my Star Sidewinder but gets slightly less distance. I would highly recommend this disc to both beginners and advanced players as it plays to the strengths of both.
