On our Nemeth Al-Carbon javelins the stiffness of the javelin will be displayed
There has been demand to give further information on our javelins to help athletes choose the throwing equipment, which suits them best. In addition to the javelin's measurements and distance rating, the javelin's stiffness - which is closely related to the wobble effect during flight and how quickly it recovers after release - will be displayed on our Al-Carbon javelins.
The first step of choosing the right javelin is selecting the javelin's distance rating, which represents the quality of the javelin's aerodynamic characteristics. Higher distance rating means a better javelin, since its aerodynamic qualities are better, which results longer throws.
(Note: In spite of the differences in athletes' technical skills and physical abilities, it is a good rule of thumb that higher distance rating = longer throw, for both men's and women's IAAF javelins)
The second aspect of choosing a javelin is selecting the javelin's stiffness.
In our Nemeth Aluminum-Carbon composite javelin line it is possible to select the javelin's stiffness, which gives additional help for the athlete to choose the most adequate javelin according to his/her technical skills, physical abilities and weather conditions. More rigid javelins wobble less and recover faster, which decreases the drag during flight.
Nemeth Javelins developed three classes to represent the javelins' stiffness:
Nemeth hard composite
Nemeth medium composite
Nemeth soft composite
Better technical execution results more accurate throws, thus stiffer javelins can be used, which results longer throws due to the decreased wobble effect and air resistance (drag).
If the throwers' skills are still under development and the throws are more frequently inaccurate, medium or soft composite javelins are the better option, because these javelins compensate better for inaccurate release.
It is important to adopt to the characteristics of composite javelins, which is easier to achieve with medium or soft javelins.
The price of the javelins are being determined right now, they will be ready for orders soon.
