Rim Weight Selection for Optimal Performance

Understanding rim weight is crucial for matching a discus to your throwing style and strength. Higher rim weights typically offer greater stability and longer flight distances, making them ideal for advanced throwers aiming for record-breaking throws. Our collection simplifies this selection process, allowing you to find a discus that complements your level of experience and competitive goals. Use tags to focus on a particular variant / color of the equipment.

Rim weight is a critical factor in choosing a discus, influencing the stability and flight distance of the throw. Athletes can select a discus tailored to their throwing range by focusing on the rim weight percentage:
