That could be a game changer for ON...the rocks etc getting lodged is like the # 1 complaint. Other than that cushioning seems decent.

Ordered. Hyped to see Hoka get in the Pebax game!
Just ordered a pair too. A little worried about the potential achilles rub and upper fit issues, but have my fingers crossed!

These are really really good. The new plate geometry makes them significantly more propulsive at toe off than Deviate Elite 1. I’d put them right up there with other super shoes performance wise. Comfort and stability are a class above others as well!
Hoka is really going for the commuter shoe segment this year. Hadn't heard about the Hoka Transport X, but if it has a full Profly+ midsole (and came in better colorways), this might be a fun shoe. Not sure about how comfortable it would be to walk around in a plated shoe all day though.

i like it when they make em look retro-ish, like old school runners but with new tech and thats why i was so disappointed with the metaracers but im really digging this look

Softer and bouncier than both, but also more stable at the heel. I definitely prefer Nitro Elite to PWRRUN PB as a foam.

Chose the EPro1s to accomplish it in the rain. They’re my designated rainy day shoes.

Did the NYC Half with my Superblasts. Been doing smaller miles with them (4-5 topping out at 7) Any comments about below would appreciated
Did you guys feel any instability in them? After about 8 miles my ankles felt like they worked a little too much. I didn't think these would be as "unstable" as the Invincible 1's but really felt it.
Instep is narrow compared to the Metaspeed edge? Maybe as my feet swelled the instep got tighter?
Overall, they gobbled the miles fine, But the instability caught me off-guard. My ankles are sore today. I have never really been into "Max cushioned shoes" assuming this is par for the course?

Superblast is one of the more stable shoes out there IMO. The firm foam and broad platform along with the raised sidewalls should keep your foot/ankles decently happy I’d think. We’re all unique though. I would NOT recommend the Prime X if the Superblast gave you issues

Yeah I wouldn’t even dare try those. It took me a while to get used to Alphaflys, I could imagine the prime X.Superblast is one of the more stable shoes out there IMO.

I’m going to keep chugging miles in these as they are comfy long run shoes. Just gotta get used to them I guess.
Thanks for the info.

Endorphin Elite might be the fastest shoe I’ve ever used. Just ludicrously bouncy/propulsive, especially as you pick up the pace they continue to give more and more back. Going to test these out in a 10 mile race in a couple weeks.

Quick run in the RC Elite V2s followed by a core strength training session.
The ride in these is so smooth! This same pace in the VFN/AFN feels so different lol

We still like the streakfly’s here? Or have other shoes passed it up?

Anyone else having issues with their Garmin / Garmin Connect not syncing with NRC? I had to add my last two runs manually, which felt like cheating. Using a Fenix 6X FWIW.
Maybe it’s a sign to jump onto the COROS ship?!

NRC seems to be glitchy lately. I have Coros. Few of my runs were not synching with NRC for some odd reasons. So I don't think it's Garmin, unless you wanna use the excuse to jump ship lol.
