ok i didnt really know where to posts this and i figgured the boot room was the best place to put this cuz its abotu boots...mods u can move this or if u really have to close it

ook so jump for my trac team..long and triplel, and i jsut bought new spikes. where i live you cant buy jump specific spikes, so iv been using middle distance spikes as a crappy alternatvie for about a year or so. well now im jumping alot farther, and alot better, and my ankles and knees are feeling it, so i decided i needed a jump spike. since i have a narrow foot, its hard for me to fit shoes. so, i ordered multiple spikes to see which fit me the best.

i got the mizuno triple jumps:
see them here

and the nike zoom LJ 3:
see them here

anyone have experiences with any of these? im really looking ffor how their gonna fit. ny suggestions to other ones that might be better? long/triple jump tips in general?

hey there..i think i can help you out here..i triple jump ..high jump..and run other things..so here we go..

between those two, i would personally go for the nikes..i have the monster fly spikes and im please with them..(they have the shox in the heel)..and i know other people that have the ones you want and love their comfort.

yea i saw the monster frlys they look sweet...they just wouldnt work for my event...so what would u say about nike's spikes? narrow, wide, or average?

dont know about those ones really, but i have a pretty wide foot and i got into my monster fly's fine..so i think any type of foot would work

Well I sprint and I have the Adidas Adistar Sprint, Nike Zoom Superfly G5 and the Nike Zoom Celar Plus and the nike spikes are definatley wider then the adidas ones. Ive also heard that Mizuno and Asics are very comfy and flexible.

kac1991 how long/high r u jumpin?

i high jump about 5 foot 8

havent triple jumped since last summer..i was hitting about 33 feet..wasnt too great at it..im 14 years old..

how about you?

avgrage triple: 36'
avgerage long: 17'

and im 16..but im only 5'3" thats y i dont high jump haha iv only gotten over the 5' starting height once

I'm a sprinter so I can't recommend a jumping spike, but I used a pair of New Balance's for a LONG time. I can't say the model but they were AWESOME spikes. Obviously light weight, but extremely comfortable and literally fit like a glove. I'd say you'd be best to go with a brand that you've found comfortable with the spikes you've worn so far, and then try to get your shop to order some so you can officially try them on. If not, order them and send them back .

thats what i did..ordered 4 paairs assuming id be sending 3 back cuz noone locally sells jumping spikes

I run sprints and do jumps. I have the adidas demolisher1 in shiny blue.
