Description
Overview
The High Jump Stand Competition is the heaviest high jump stand in the Vinex range, built for meets where the stand must not shift when a jumper brushes the bar. The uprights are heavy gauge steel and each stands on an 18 in square steel base. The risers are steel as well, with welded bar rests.
It is a competition piece, not a portable training stand. If you want something lighter to carry to the pit for training, the Vinex High Jump Stands Pair is the aluminium alternative in the same high jump range.
Key benefits
- Stays put through a full competition thanks to the 18 in square steel base.
- Welded bar rests give the crossbar a fixed seat at every setting.
- Heavy gauge steel frame built for repeated competition seasons.
- Steel risers match the frame for a consistent, solid build.
- Replacement risers and a height measure are listed separately in the range.
Who it's for
This stand is for clubs, regional athletics centres and secondary schools that host graded competition and need equipment that stands up to it. Officials and coaches who set bar heights all afternoon will value the welded rests and the heavy base.
It is heavier than a PE class needs. For intermediate or primary school jumping, the Junior High Jump Set – Rubber bases or the plastic-based junior set will be easier to move and store.
Care, safety and set-up
At around 40 kg shipping weight this is a freight item: freight is quoted separately to your address before dispatch. Add it to a quote with any other athletics gear so it can be priced as one consignment.
Store the stand under cover between meets and check the bar rests and base before each competition. It is covered by the Sports Distributors 12-month guarantee.
Frequently asked questions
How is freight handled?
Freight is quoted rather than charged at a flat rate. You can request a quote or add the stand to your quote list and the customer-service team will confirm delivery to your school or club.
Can I buy replacement parts?
Yes. The High Jump Stnd Riser and the High Jump Stand Measure are listed separately in the high jump range.
Is this the right stand for training?
It will do the job, but its weight makes it slow to move. For regular training the aluminium Vinex High Jump Stands Pair is easier to handle.
Do schools get help paying for it?
Sports Distributors has funding packages for schools and clubs, and reps can help put together a full athletics fit-out.
