Holy crap. Only 15 years old?

[@maroastaansunkissastallaka1150]

His uncle is Aki Parviainen. There’s something special in that family’s blood

[@DarthVidin]

@@maroastaansunkissastallaka1150 yes, proper training

[@Karfa2]

Täydellinen tekniikka. Kuin Thorkildsenilla.

[@jensmith3719]

Must be a world age best too,

[@miska2177]

It is indeed the best result ever for a 15 year old with 700g javelin. Actually Aki Parviainen who is this young mans uncle held the old record that was 79.00m.

[@Meritokratiabest]

@@miska2177 Not true. Aki never threw 700g javelin. That 79m is with 600g javelin. Topi's throw is not U18 world best, Braian Toledo has thrown over 89m. It's best U17 throw ever, though.

[@jcni1]

Aki trow 79.96 with 800g javeling

[@Meritokratiabest]

@@jcni1 Yes, when Aki was 16 (almost 17), he threw 79,96 with 800g javelin. He threw 79,00 with 600g javelin year earlier, when he was 15.

[@villevirtanen2215]

Finnish Harri Haatainen threw 72+meters back in 1994 with 800g javelin at same age than Topi is now. It's difficult to compare 700g and 800g spears, but IMO that 72+meters is better.

[@tz3841]

My javelin coach keeps telling me to have the elbow at least at ear level or higher, this guy had the elbow completely to the side and way below the ear... apparently it doesn't matter.

[@Drogadobyciasilniejszym]

Wait for Roch Krukowski 💪👍

[@thejjzz]

Todella erikoisen näköistä tuo sen tukijalan käyttö. No ainakin keppi lentää.

[@camfg8908]

700g keihäs, ei miehissä ole kuin 100g painavampi. Eikös tuonne EM-kisoihin vielä ehtisi tulosrajan tekemään?

Ei kun nuo meni jo
