In September 2025 he won the Hungarian Darts Trophy in Budapest as an unseeded player. He beat Gian van Veen, Damon Heta, Rob Cross, Luke Humphries and Josh Rock, then Danny Noppert 8-7 in the final. It was his first PDC title. He reached the last 16 of the Grand Slam of Darts later that year.

What darts does Niko Springer use?

Springer plays 22g BEAZD signature darts. BEAZD is the German darts maker known as Bull's until it renamed itself in 2026. His signature model has a 90% tungsten barrel with centre balance, finished in white with red colouring. The grip runs in radial zones along the barrel, with an axial grip zone at the front and red and white rings at the rear, and the barrel is engraved "Meenzer Bub". BEAZD makes it in 22g and 24g and supplies it with white B-Grip2 shafts and X-Powerflite XXL flights.

We don't currently stock BEAZD darts. Our steel tip darts range covers a wide spread of weights and barrel shapes, and our dart flights and dart shafts let you fine-tune any setup.
