Hurdles for athletics

Hurdles are used in many different ways in athletics, but are predominantly associated with hurdling and steeplechase. The competitor must, at a specific distance, pass a number of hurdles in a correct and approved manner. For an optimally completed race, the strategy is to only take 3 steps between the hurdles on the short distances, but can clearly be changed if the runner is losing energy or if the stamina is gone.


What kinds of hurdles are there in Track and Field?

Depending on whether it is a hurdle that is used in hurdling or steeplechase, they are constructed in different ways. In hurdling, you use hurdles that topple over if you hit them. In steeplechase, on the other hand, the hurdles are fixed and will not topple over if a runner hits them. We at Nordic Sport have a large range of different types of hurdles for Track & Field and have extensive experience in supplying hurdles for championships and competitions around the world. All our hedges are easy to handle and can be easily stored without taking up much space.


Different functions of hurdles for athletics

Many of our hurdles for athletics have features that make them tilt back if knocked over or self-adjust the counterweight when you raise the bar. Our fully automatic hurdle adjusts the counterweights itself when you raise the height of the bar and is therefore flexible and easy to work with. We also have a mini-hurdle that has been developed and is excellent for training when you want to train your footwork or your fitness, for example. Two qualities that are important for a hurdler and for track and field athletes in general.


Accessories for Hurdles

We also have various accessories for hurdles for athletics that make it easy to store and move them. We have three different types of pushchairs where you can choose based on preference or what you need. For example, our hurdle cart, which you load from the side, can be connected three by three, which creates the possibility to move and store 60 athletics hurdles at the same time. Read less
