Description: We have gone to the thicker 3/4 inch material as it is a much better mat and the thinner materials dimension changed form 1/2 to 3/8 and it is just not the quality that I want so sell.It is a little more money but well worth it for longevity and quality of the circle. We will be at USATF Junior Olympics in Greensboro July 22 to 28. Throwing 17-18 Women Hammer, Shot and Discus. Look us up. This is a light weight modular Shot Put, Hammer, Weight Throw Circle. Using keyed foam mats we cut out the proper size 2.135 meter throwing circle. We used a large CNC router to cut a smooth accurate circle to the proper size. The pads lock together to form the throwing circle. We use dumb bell weights to hold the circle down or you can use any heavy object on two of the four corners or all four corners. The mats are approximately 3/4 inch thick. Circle is accurate to within .5 diameter due to expansion and contraction of foam. We get material in 3 different colors and depending on availability the one shipped may be sky blue, silver/grey or black, My daughter throws shot, discus, hammer and weight and I made the circle so that we could practice indoors in a gym or warehouse with a concrete floor. We have used it outdoors on concrete and also asphalt for foot drills and some throwing when we did not want to travel to the cage. It is light, easy to setup and take down and takes up minimal room. When Gill and others are getting $2,000 or more for plywood circles that are bulky and don't transport well we tried to come up with something that a thrower could have at home or a school could afford to have 3 or 4 and not break the budget. This is meant for practice only and allows any thrower to have their own circle to work with for under $150.Or at a school you can have 2 or 3 throwing stations running at once and get more foot work and technique practice in for the throwers. Also take a look at our practice Weight Throw bag and handle and our Discus Circle inserts to convert a Discus Circle for Hammer or Weight Throw. Quantity discounts for schools and throwing clubs or coaches. We can also an indoor/outdoor discus circle. Because of the 2.5 meter size it takes about 50% more material. Reviews from customers: Thank you so much for offering me this ring at this price! Your prototype is going to be used by five of the best high school girls’ shot putters in the state of Colorado and it’s going to help them get even better! I can’t thank you enough. Any chance you could contact me when you get the toeboard attachment completed? Also when I get more money I would definitely be interested in speaking with you about a discus circle. Again, this product is awesome and I am truly enjoying it so far. My high school team will love it also once the seasons starts on Monday! I would love to hear how your daughter ends up doing with her final high school years/college etc. so I hope we stay in touch!Erica New message from: ginboyer0 (6)Hello Marcus, I am thrilled with purchase. My son is a shot put thrower.The circle is a Christmas gift. He is currently attending Louisburg College and was given scholarship to throw for their new track program. UVA is a great school hope you like it! Best of luck and you are right throwers are not recognized for their talent. Thanks again!
