The MVP Detour is a key addition to James Conrad’s signature lineup, fitting perfectly between the Axiom Hex and MVP Uplink in terms of stability. With flight numbers 5 | 5 | -2 | 1, the Detour is designed for effortless shot shaping, making it a go-to midrange for long panning turnovers and smooth hyzer-flips. Its exceptional glide ensures extended flight, while the gentle fade provides a consistent and controlled finish.
As a backhand-dominant player, Conrad is known for his ability to shape turnover lines with precision, and the Detour embodies that skill. Experienced players will appreciate the disc’s versatility for carving through wooded fairways and executing finesse shots, while newer players will find it to be a reliable, straight-flying midrange that is easy to control and perfect for developing their game.
Approved by the PDGA in 2024, the MVP Detour is an essential midrange for players seeking a disc that blends control, glide, and workability. Whether you’re shaping shots in tight fairways or looking for a consistent turnover disc, the Detour delivers precision and reliability, making it a standout choice in James Conrad’s lineup.
How much the Detour turns and fades depends on how hard it is thrown. These three shapes are drawn from the manufacturer’s numbers, not from measured throws.
