🏅 Coach Cappos Recommends

"I move a high school boy to the G-Series when he's consistently throwing well and his technique is locked in — not before. The high rim weight rewards spin; if the athlete isn't generating that spin yet, they'll actually throw shorter. The 83% rim weight is the ideal entry point into the G-Series. It provides the benefits of a higher-spin discus while remaining manageable and forgiving enough for athletes transitioning from lower rim-weight models. As athletes continue to develop to the national level, they can progress to the 85% and ultimately the elite-level Carbon 87%."
