• Demands solid technique and release velocity for best results

Why Choose a Brass Rim Discus?

Brass Higher Rim Weight Features

• Brass is denser than steel or aluminum, allowing manufacturers to concentrate more weight at the edge.

• This increases the rim weight percentage, which promotes a higher moment of inertia;  meaning the discus stays spinning longer in the air, leading to greater distance if thrown correctly.

• A brass rim helps the discus stay stable in wind and maintain its orientation, especially at higher speeds.
