Details
  • Steel rim with durable plastic side plates
  • 73 percent rim weight for intermediate spin control
  • NFHS certified for official high school competition
  • Available in 1K and 1.6K weights

You need a discus that can survive daily practice throws without chewing up your budget. The Challenger delivers exactly that. It pairs a steel rim with tough plastic plates to handle the abuse of high-volume reps. Your throwers get the consistent feel they need to develop their release.

The 73 percent rim weight hits the sweet spot for developing athletes. It requires less spin to stabilize in flight compared to high-rim-weight models. This helps intermediate throwers see better distances while they refine their technique. Since it carries NFHS certification, you can seamlessly transition this from the practice ring straight into dual meets.

Choose the 1K weight for girls' high school or boys' middle school events, or grab the 1.6K for boys' high school competition. Both models feature the same consistent grip and flight characteristics.

Coach's Questions

Which discus weight do I need for my athletes?
High school boys throw the 1.6K discus. High school girls and middle school boys use the 1K weight.
Is a 73 percent rim weight right for my throwers?
This percentage is ideal for beginners and intermediate throwers. A lower rim weight requires less rotational speed to stabilize the discus in flight, making it easier for developing athletes to get a proper release.
Can we use this discus in official high school meets?
Both the 1K and 1.6K models are fully NFHS certified for official high school competition.
How do the plastic side plates hold up on concrete or gravel?
The plastic plates handle impacts on grass and standard dirt throwing sectors. Repeated strikes on concrete or hard gravel will scratch and eventually chip the side plates.
