Huge day for Daniel

His indoor PB was 61.09m but we knew he would break that easy today as Daniel Ståhl threw very, very far on our training camp in Fuerteventura two weeks ago. Still it was very unstable today at Nordenkampen meet and the technique was rough and inconsistent. But it ended up being 66.90m and the second farthest ever in history after Gerd Kanter’s world best indoor since 2009 of 69.51m. This result is very good for Daniel but there is much more coming sooner or later, the capacity is huge and with more stability and control everything is possible. In the shot put was Daniel Mr. stability and threw six legal throws and three new indoor PB´s. His previous since last weekend was 19.10m but this time he had 19.26m, 19.32m and 19.60m. Daniel got second in the meet with that performance. Outstanding day for Daniel here in Tampere in Finland. Written by Coach Vésteinn Hafsteinsson

by GT Management in Daniel Stahl, Discus Throw 0 comments tags: 68m club, Personal Best, Season Best, World Lead

The Swedish Championships was held this weekend at the Sollentuna Arena in Stockholm. The highlight of the meet was the world leading throw of Daniel Ståhl 68.72m. On day one Daniel also won the shot with a new PB o 19.38m. On day two we were pretty excited for the discus as all the guys had been throwing well in practice and Daniel threw a huge training PB over 70m during the week. Daniel started out with a sector foul on 67m and when I saw that I knew this will be his day. With a meet record in the second throw of 65.09m beating the legendary Ricky Bruch’s 44 year old meet record and throwing his farthest ever throw in Sweden it looked good. He barely fouled the third throw that was on the 65m line. Next throw measured 63.83m and then he had a good throw after that that just touched the net. The last throw was the big one as many times before this season, nice to beat Gerd Kanter’s stadium record also. Wow, it was outstanding and the crowd screamed and Daniel ran out of the circle and celebrated. It was a great moment and total […]

Mesud Pezer the 22 year old from Bosnia Herzegovina qualified for the EC and OG today at the Steve Scott Invitational in Irvine, California. Mesud got second in the meet behind Tim Nedow, Canada that won the meet with an outdoor seasonal best of 20.88m. This performance by Mesud is amazing as he improved his outdoor PB last week to 20.00m from 19.99m last summer. Mesud improved his indoor PB many times this winter and ended up with 20.22m that was almost a meter farther than last winter. Today Mesud had for throws over 20m, 20.11, 20.58, 20.50 and 20.09. Mesud has been working extremely hard for this and is worth the ticket to Rio many times and we are all very happy for him. Tim looked very strong today and had many throws landing around the same distance, then went hard in the last one and fouled a throw around 70 feet, ca 21.32m or so. It is going great for him and we just keep on, remember that his outdoor PB is close, 20.98m. His indoor PB since this winter is 21.33m. Daniel Ståhl, Sweden was in a league on his own at his favorite place here in Irvine. […]

Daniel Stahl 5th World Championships Beijing 2015

by GT Management in Daniel Stahl, Discus Throw 0 comments tags: 64m club, Season Best, World Championships

Daniel Ståhl did absolutely great in the final of the discus throw here at the WC in Beijing. He ended up in 5th place with a seasonal best throw of 64.73m and was only 45 cm away from the bronze medal. This is huge for Daniel and we are so proud of him. The competition ended up being really exciting and fun to watch. Daniel started out well with 61.57m in the first throw and we knew then already that it would not be enough for making it through to top eight for getting three more throws. After a little worse throw in the second round he had to throw close to 64m in the third throw and he did and hit a SB of 64.42m. He then followed up with another SB of 64.73m in the fourth to foul the last two. Daniel equaled the best throwing performance ever by a Swede in WC. The legendary javelin thrower Dag Wennlund was also 5th in the WC back in 1995 in Göteborg. Sweden has never got a medal in WC in any throwing event. The best discus thrower for Sweden in the WC before yesterday was Stefan Fernholm 12th place. […]
