    You can never go wrong with NIKE spikes when you're a sprinter in the 100m or 200m. NIKE always has the best running products on the market and the Max Fly's and Superfly Elite 2's are no exception.
    In this video, I'll review the NIKE Max Fly and Superfly elite 2 sprint spikes and declare a winner of best sprint spike for 2022. The criteria for the head to head battle will be: performance, comfort, style, price, and durability. You'll see the various colorways; an in depth detail of the spikes; my thoughts on if each spike is worth the price; which spike performs better and makes you run faster; which spike is the most durability and lasts the longest; and which spike is the most comfortable to race in.

    The importance of this video is that Nike has provided both a modern and traditional spikes. Nike is making a move on implementing the Nike Air Zoom Bag. I believe that the Maxflys have room to improve where the Superfly are an example of peak innovation. It’s all subjective at the end and choose the spike you feel most comfortable with.

    This is old! But I have both and they have their own unique advantages, Max fly definitely Is more versatile and coming off the turn will make you feel like you’re flying down the track, but it doesn’t beat that light feeling that the super fly elite has that makes your acceleration feel much smoother and quicker in the 100m

    Hey Aaron, your content is very helpful. I'm choosing between these two spikes for the 110m hurdles. For an inexperienced runner like myself, which spike would be better for developing good running technique, i.e. suitable in training and competition?
    Edit: I also tend to decelerate quite early in the race (using Zoom rival S spikes), which spikes would be better for maintaining top end speed?

    • @kingsleysc
      @kingsleysc  Před rokem +8

      Hey man thanks for watching, glad it could help. For a beginner like you I’d go with the max fly in the hurdles and see if you can get comfortable with them. They can be difficult to use if you don’t strike the ground properly but since you’re beginning I would suggest learning to use the best spike while learning to hurdle as well rather than waiting. If that’s too difficult then the superfly is your best bet because they are the most beginner friendly. You just mentioned that you want to maintain speed and the max fly will help you do that best if you learn to use them properly. Good luck 👍🏾

    Recently, I have been looking into some new track spikes. I run the 400m, and I’m undecided. Because it’s a longer race, the more comfortable, better energy transfer with the zoom unit sounds amazing. But having 3 corners to deal with, it makes me worry ab what you said with regarding that pair. Any thoughts?

    • @kingsleysc
      @kingsleysc  Před rokem +12

      In the 400m I wouldn’t be as concerned with the turn because you’re not all out sprinting the way you do in the 200. I would definitely go max fly 👍🏾

  • @user-gw6bz9nl2u
    @user-gw6bz9nl2u Před rokem +10

    Very good review Aeron, but I would simplify things, For start and acceleration and running up to 60m, the Superfly Elite 2 are better because they are very light and there is no energy return (which you don't need while accelerating). For after 60 meters, i.e. for maximum speed and maintaining speed, Max Fly is better because they return the energy, which gives a big advantage after 60 meters.

      You would never wear short sprint spikes for long distances races but I believe you can definitely wear longer distance spikes for shorter sprints.
      Lots of the masters sprinters do this as they find them more suitable.
      Just because Nike markets them for 800m to 1500m or 5k, doesn’t necessarily mean that they aren’t suitable for short sprints too.

The guy who fitted me says at max, they go well in 800m which I also do (I skip 400m) but was unsure about how they go in jumping. What are your thoughts?

      Personally I’d say the superfly’s are more versatile and I’d go with that but if you can make it work around the curve in the max flys you can go with that too! All about personal preference

    Is it ok for me to wear the same spikes two years in a row? I have superflys and liked them so should I get new ones for Christmas or no?

      I’d highly recommend a new pair each season if you can swing it
