Streamline Discs: Introducing the Trace and Pilot

Streamline Discs is the newest single-mold disc brand created by MVP Disc Sports, designed to bring high-quality, traditional discs to the market while complementing MVP and Axiom’s overmold offerings. The brand launched with two models: the Trace distance driver and the Pilot putter, both aimed at players looking for reliable performance and attractive design.

The Story Behind Streamline Discs

MVP Disc Sports has long been known for its innovative Gyro Overmold technology, which adds rotational inertia by making the disc’s rim denser than its plate. This unique design drew many disc golf enthusiasts to MVP and its spin-off, Axiom Discs, creating a passionate fan base called “gyro-heads.” The three-colored stamping and visually appealing overmolds made these discs both functional and collectible.

In 2017, MVP introduced Streamline Discs, a single-mold brand that forgoes the overmold while retaining popular plastics such as Neutron, Proton, and Electron. Fans were initially surprised, but Streamline quickly proved its worth with high-quality discs, stylish three-color stamps, and accessible plastic blends.

Streamline Discs: Trace Distance Driver

The Trace fits into a speed range that is not overly crowded in the market. With a flight rating similar to the Innova Wraith but slightly less fade, it appeals to players with moderate to high arm speed.

Flight Ratings: 11 speed, 5 glide, -1 turn, 2 fade

After a few throws, the Trace impresses as a manageable distance driver. Comparatively, it’s like the Discmania DDX is to the Innova Destroyer—less dramatic fade but excellent distance and control.

Plastic Options for the Trace

• Neutron Plastic: Durable and grippy, similar to Innova Star or Latitude 64 Gold Line.

• Proton Plastic: Translucent and consistent, similar to Innova Champion or Latitude 64 Opto.

Both plastics provide a balanced combination of distanthe Pilotce and control, making the Trace an excellent introductory driver for Streamline Discs.

Streamline Discs: Pilot Putter

No disc golf bag is complete without a reliable putter, and  fills this role for Streamline Discs. While many putters exist, the Pilot offers consistency and comfort for short throws and approaches. It is neither too overstable nor too understable, making it versatile for players of all skill levels.

The Pilot reminds experienced players of the Latitude 64 Pure but with a micro-bead on the rim for improved feel. The Electron Soft plastic provides a slightly flexible, soft grip without being too floppy or chalky, comparable to popular blends like Gateway Wizard’s Super Stupid Soft.

The Trace and Pilot are strong entries for any disc golf player’s bag. The Trace provides a reliable distance driver for moderate-to-high-speed arms, offering a perfect balance of speed, glide, and control. Its slightly less dramatic fade compared to other distance drivers allows players to achieve long, accurate throws without sacrificing stability. Whether navigating tight fairways or aiming for maximum distance, the Trace performs consistently, making it a versatile option for casual rounds and competitive play.

Meanwhile, the Pilot serves as a dependable putter for short throws and approach shots. Its micro-bead rim enhances grip and control, while the Electron Soft plastic provides a comfortable, flexible feel that suits different hand sizes and throwing styles. The Pilot is particularly useful in high-pressure putting situations, giving players confidence for consistent results inside the circle, while also being reliable for precise approaches.

As Streamline Discs continues to expand its line, the brand has the potential to become a major competitor in the disc golf market. The combination of well-designed single-mold discs, attractive multi-color stamping, and high-quality plastics gives Streamline Discs a unique appeal. Whether you are a casual player enjoying recreational rounds or a dedicated enthusiast seeking reliable performance, these discs are a smart addition to any bag.
