The MVP Cypher is an understable fairway driver, and it’s the kind of disc that makes a 7-speed feel a lot easier than 7-speeds usually do. Three of turn and a single fade means it wants to flip up and ride, not fight you off the tee.
If you throw a Cypher on a slight hyzer it’ll stand up and hold a long, flat line. Give it anhyzer and it’ll turn over and stay turned. That makes it a solid gap disc in the woods and an easy way to get fairway distance without needing a ton of arm speed. If you’re coming up from a midrange and your fairway drivers keep fading out early, this is the one to try. Just know that in a headwind, three of turn is three of turn — it’ll flip past where you want it.
How much the Cypher turns and fades depends on how hard it is thrown. These three shapes are drawn from the manufacturer’s numbers, not from measured throws.
Measured by the PDGA when the Cypher was certified. Each card names discs that share the number, so you can feel it in the hand.
