Vortex High Cut 112 mm black kicking tee for rugby Rugby Bricks
The Vortex High Cut kicking tee is designed for experienced and professional kickers looking to maximize distance on conversions and penalties. Its 112 mm elevation favors a powerful strike from a high position, ideal for balls placed far from the posts or kicks beyond 50 metres. The premium thermoplastic support offers a customizable placement angle between 25 and 75 degrees, allowing you to adjust the inclination according to striking technique and playing conditions. The turf-cut base ensures optimal stability even on wet or windy ground.
Developed in New Zealand, this tee is used by elite kickers such as Ryan Papenhuyzen (Melbourne Storm in the NRL), Libbie Janse van Rensburg (South African national team) and Quade Cooper (Wallabies). This professional choice demonstrates the reliability of the Vortex High Cut in demanding competition conditions, where every centimetre of elevation and every degree of inclination counts for clearing the bar.
What tee height should I choose to start kicking?
Beginners generally prefer a low or medium tee (50-80 mm). The 112 mm High Cut suits experienced kickers who already master the high strike.
Does the tee withstand boot studs if the kick misses?
Yes, the premium thermoplastic absorbs impacts without cracking. The wide base also limits the risk of direct contact with the studs.
Can this tee be used on artificial turf?
Absolutely. The turf-cut base grips well on both synthetic and natural grass, ensuring the ball stays stable.
Technical specifications
Care tipsRinse the tee with clean water after use to remove mud and grass residue. Air dry, away from direct sunlight to preserve the elasticity of the thermoplastic. Do not leave the tee in prolonged sun inside a sports bag (risk of deformation). Store flat or upright, never under crushing weight. DesignRugby Bricks developed the Vortex High Cut to meet the demands of long-distance kickers. The 112 mm elevation positions the ball on the optimal striking axis to generate a tight trajectory and maximum range. The adjustable angle system (25-75°) lets you adapt the inclination to each kicker's style: a closed angle for a powerful low strike, an open angle for a high lofted kick into a headwind. The turf-cut base replicates the playing surface, preventing any slipping during the run-up or in crosswinds. This tee thus combines height (distance gain) and anchoring (accuracy), two parameters often at odds on standard tees. BrandRugby Bricks, a New Zealand brand specializing in kicking accessories, designs its products in collaboration with professional rugby union and rugby league kickers. The adoption of the Vortex by players such as Quade Cooper (Wallabies) and Ryan Papenhuyzen (Melbourne Storm) validates the brand's technical approach, focused on repeatability of the kicking motion and resistance to real playing conditions. |
