Description
Overview
The Discus Vinex Hi-Spin 1kg puts most of its mass where competition throwers want it: 75% of the weight sits in the steel rim. That high rim weight spins the discus faster off the hand and holds it flat through the flight, and Vinex balances it to suit any level of competition.
The red ABS plastic side plates are tough enough for weekly club sessions, so one implement covers both training and competition day. It is one of several 1 kg options in the discus category alongside the Discus Vinex Rubber Black 1kg for beginners.
Key benefits
- Faster, flatter flight for experienced throwers, from 75% steel rim weight.
- Balanced for competition, so what you train with is what you compete with.
- Red ABS plastic side plates resist knocks from regular field use.
- Covers boys 13–15, girls 13–17 and women 16+ under the weight guide.
Who it's for
The 1 kg weight is the busiest one on the guide: boys 13–15, girls 13–17, senior women 16+, men's masters 60+ and women's masters 35+. A Hi-Spin model suits throwers in those groups who have their technique settled and want more distance.
Beginners at this weight often find the Discus Vinex Rubber Black 1kg more forgiving, while lighter throwers step down to the Discus Vinex LoSpin 750gm. Senior men move up through the range to the Discus Vinex Hi-Spin 2kg.
Sizing guide
Under the Discus Weight Guide, 1 kg applies to boys 13–15 years, girls 13–17 years, women 16 and over, men's masters 60 and over, and women's masters 35 and over.
Care, safety and set-up
Clean the rim and plates after each session and store the discus dry. Products carry a 12-month guarantee, and quantity pricing applies when a school or club orders several.
