Nordic Viking is a solid javelin made of metal alloy. Recommended for throwers in the 45m (150') to 58m (190') range.
Approximate Distance Rating:
- 800g = 60m
Flex Ratings range from 12.1 to 6.1 (the higher the flex rating the softer than javelin)
800 gram = Flex 10.4
The stiffer the javelin, the less it will flex/vibrate in the air and will result in less air drag. The downside is that it puts much more strain on the upper body.
A soft javelin flexes/vibrates a lot, which can also be a very good thing if you are less skilled thrower.
