What customers are saying
"This was a beautiful disc, almost too pretty to throw. My throwers also didn't want them to mark on it when weighing in. Great purchase, and she goes the distance!!"

Why a Brass Rim Discus Works
Brass is denser than steel or aluminum, letting more weight concentrate at the edge. That raises the rim weight percentage and creates a higher moment of inertia, meaning the discus stays spinning longer in the air for greater distance if thrown correctly. A brass rim also helps the discus stay stable in wind and maintain its orientation at higher speeds.
- Increased spin rate = greater distance
- More stable flight in wind at high release speeds
- Demands solid technique and release velocity for best results
- Best suited for advanced and elite throwers who can handle faster rotational release
