The Nordic 'Master' is the best all-around javelin for throwers that are past the beginner or novice level but are not ready for a stiffer javelin.
This javelin is stiffer than the Viking and Comet, therefore, it will vibrate less in the air and is very aerodynamic. For novice throwers, the down side is that it puts more stress on the upper body when not thrown properly.
NOTE: A softer javelin is recommended for less skilled throwers to learn the release mechanics and allow more room for error at the release.
