NISHI Competition Starting Block Super IV

The NISHI competition starting block exemplifies Japanese engineering and uncompromising quality in elite sport. Developed by one of the world’s most renowned manufacturers of professional track and field equipment, this WA-certified starting block features sophisticated details, exceptional stability, and outstanding craftsmanship.

Ergonomic and functional design
A standout feature is the innovative carrying handle made from a tube, which is mounted in a manner that allows it to be rotated. The design provides optimal leverage during transport so that the starting block can be carried effortlessly with one or both hands without the pedals slipping or falling out. This makes it not only robust but also extremely practical in everyday competition use.

The ultimate in stability with secure hold
On the guide rail, non-slip plastic pads at the front and back ensure the block can be securely fixed in place when pushing with the heel – even on slick or slightly damp tracks. This guarantees that the starting block remains securely in place on the track even under competition conditions.

Precise adjustment for perfect starts
Featuring 40 locking positions along the rail, the NISHI starting block provides exceptionally fine pedal-position adjustment – significantly more than standard competition starting blocks. The pedal angles can be adjusted in seven steps, supported by a smooth, spring-based mechanism.

Optimal pedal shape and grip
The generous pedal surfaces (approximately 24 cm high and 14 cm wide) provide all athletes with ample support for an optimal push-off position. The textured rubber coating and robust knobs provide a secure grip for spikes and remain abrasion-resistant even with intensive use. The pedals’ shape naturally pre-tensions the foot, whether the toes touch the track or hover just above it.

Robust design using premium materials
Constructed from high-quality aluminum, the starting block provides excellent stability while remaining moderately lightweight. The pedal anchors feature freely rotating sleeves, making pedal insertion and adjustment exceptionally smooth. This allows the starting block to be adjusted quickly and precisely – ideal for competitions and training.

Engineered for peak performance
The NISHI competition starting block is the perfect choice for competitive sprinters who demand precision, stability, and sophisticated design. Every detail – from the finely notched rail to the ergonomic handle bar – demonstrates that this starting block was crafted with meticulous care for professional use.
