Gill Athletics S-Series Discus

Yes, the S-Series meets NFHS specifications, making it fully compliant for high school track and field events. However, please note that this specific model is weighted at 2 kilograms, which is the standard weight for men's collegiate competition.

The rim weight percentage determines how much of the discus's total mass is concentrated in the outer steel rim. A higher percentage, like 80%, provides more stability and momentum in flight, while a lower percentage, like 67%, is often more forgiving for throwers still refining their technique.

Yes, these side plates are constructed from high-impact plastic designed to withstand the rigors of both daily training sessions and competitive meets. While they are built for durability, they are best used on proper throwing surfaces to maintain the integrity of the rim and plates.

Yes, the S-Series is World Athletics (formerly IAAF) certified. This means it adheres to the strict dimensional and weight requirements necessary for use in international and elite-level collegiate meets.

The high-quality steel rim provides a consistent, solid feel that helps with grip and release. Because steel is denser than the plastic side plates, it creates the necessary rotational inertia for a stable, predictable flight path.
