Gill Nordic Viking Javelin; 800G; Flex 10.4; Universal

The Viking is Nordic Sport’s most accessible men’s 800g javelin — engineered specifically for athletes who need a more forgiving implement to develop their throwing technique without being punished by minor release errors. The higher Flex 10.4 rating absorbs imperfections in the throw, helping developing athletes achieve consistent tip-first landings and steadier flight paths while they build the mechanics and strength required to step up to stiffer competition models.

• Flex 10.4 Forgiving Shaft – The higher flex number means the shaft absorbs more vibration and bends more through the release, making it significantly more forgiving of release angle errors and imperfect technique than stiffer elite-level javelins — allowing developing throwers to focus on building proper run-up, approach, and release mechanics without the erratic flights that punish beginners on stiffer implements
• 800g Official Men’s Competition Weight – Matches the regulation 800g weight required for men’s javelin competition at high school, collegiate, and open levels under NFHS, NCAA, and World Athletics rules — throwers train and compete on the same weight they’ll face in sanctioned meets throughout the season
• Durable Metal Alloy Construction – Built from a rugged aluminum alloy that handles the repeated ground impacts of beginner and high-volume training use without bending, cracking, or losing structural integrity — providing a longer service life than carbon models under the heavy training loads that developing athletes put on their implements
• Universal Steel Tip – The universal tip is not engineered for specific wind conditions, making it an all-weather, all-conditions reliable option for outdoor training sessions, indoor facility work, and competition on any given meet day regardless of wind direction
• 60m Distance Rating for Developing Throwers – Recommended for athletes throwing in the 25–60 meter range, bridging the gap between beginner rubber-tipped training javelins and the stiffer, more aerodynamically demanding models used by advanced and elite throwers
• World Athletics Certified – Carries official World Athletics certification (Certificate I-04-0308), confirming it meets all IAAF dimensional, weight, and construction specifications for use in sanctioned competition at high school, collegiate, and international levels
