Saying that is like saying the landspeed record was broken by the driver, not the car. Yes the Kipchoge was probably the only one who could do it, but he couldn't have done it without the shoe. I've heard that the shoe gives you a 4% advantage over other shoes (which, over a 2 hour race, is around 5 minutes; quite a lot, considering the record was broken by a lot less than that)

@@tavasp really I'm trying to say that the success is a team effort. Yes Kipchoge was likely the only person who could have broken the record, but Kipchoge wouldn't have been able to do it without the shoes. To me, a runner's shoes are like a formula 1 driver's car. The best driver in the world can't beat an average driver in the best car if they use a Ford focus. And an average driver in the best F1 car won't win if the best driver is using a formula 1 car as well. But it takes the best driver (in terms of long distance running,, Kipchoge) in the best car (the shoes) to reach and surpass the record.

OK, 2 things……the fibres in the zoom air unit prevent the airbag from “ballooning” and keep the desired shape and low profile. When they use to call it tensile air they were using 40psi and the bags would inflate like a ball, they came up with fibres inside to hold the airbag to the desired shape and profile they wanted, tensile air became zoom air. Next, if the shoes wear quickly (as expensive as they are) just run in them until you wear them out, snap the carbon fibre plate and call nike for a warranty replacement, Nike will warranty a shoe for 2 years from the date of manufacturing so they will replace the shoe (several times in fact), so there’s that if you wanna get “value” for your money.

there are 2 types of shoes, race shoes and daily trainers. daily trainers last 400-600 miles while race shoes last 100-200 miles. these are races shoes so they're better for races, not the training. they aren't made to be worn everyday.

you have to run in correct form for that carbon fiber to work xd

The fuzzy fibers inside the air pocket work similar to the fibers inside a inflatable paddle board or air tumble track. Those would be cool to see What's Inside.

love this channel but clearly dan doesn’t know much about running haha. anyway Zach shoes are the ultraboost 20 not the 2.0s

Yes, the fact his shoes were worn in one run so much shows a repetitive skid drag, causing friction, and friction is resistance. In the slow mo its quite eveident. But he is a big dude, I'm sure this comes into play being an average marathon runner is 140 lbs to which these shoes are designed for.

No offense to him

6:39 that looks like a downhill. If he has run the same route to the another direction the time difference will come just with the uphill resistance. I’m sure that the shoes are awesome but they seem like lasting just one season. Hopefully Nike will come out with more durable shoes.

I ran my grade 7 track and field with normal nike running shoes and took my dads alphafly's for grade 8 track day and the difference was nuts

It's so obviously deliberate that He doesn't mention Eliud Kipchoge's name even once.

Eliud did not wear the Vaporfly Next% when he missed 2 hours by 25 seconds, he wore the Vaporfly 4% and that was a specific event hosted by Nike. He set the marathon world record in Berlin in an actual race in the Next%. The next year Nike hosted another special event to pace him in the Alphaflys when he broke 2. Also the vapor/alphaflys are meant to be light not durable, they make a zoomfly, which are identical in design but use the durable heavier react foam.

He didn’t wear the 4%s either, he wore the Vaporfly Elite during the Breaking 2 challenge

That running form completely undoes the springy advantage of those shoes. They benefit mid-foot strikers not heel strikers like Jerry in the video.

So I was interested in carbon plated running shoes, until I saw a video showing the shoe sole was made of very soft foam like material. They seemed to have taken a beating after the very first run. Are there any other shoes that will last longer than that ?

Most other shoes will last longer than that.

Try running a marathon with sandals, without breaking it.

Dan: what's song choice today? Zack: Running in the 90s

from memory, the alphafly was his training shoe - the marathon was still done in the vaporfly shoe

They’re an awesome shoe, crazy conservation of momentum. I own the Vapor Flys, periodically search to see if/when they’ll slap an all terrain tread on a pair and cal it a hiker, that be amazing, Pegasus is pretty good too though, I think it has the ZoomX foam as well.

Pegasus shoes have Nike React foams

Cut open Jordan 11s or 12s they both have a carbon fibre plate, the only difference is the 12s have zoom and 11s have regular Nike air

Masoom Khan carbon plates used are different, pretty sure the 11s and 12s was more for aesthetics not really function

When he cut in the shoe, i really felt that :(

Ahh as a sneakerhead it hurts to see them cut the Zoom Units like that, so the Zoom Air Tech acts like "Springs", when he said he felt bouncy its because of the Zoom pods in the front portion of the shoe, as you step/land on it, it responds and releases the force back up, if you hold the shoe up and squeeze the zoom unit you'll see the spring action. But since they cut the top of the zoom pod, they pretty much sliced the whole pod.

one time 1-2 years ago i got some running shoes for my bday. Its only now im realizing they were alpha flys i think

We're always asking what's inside but we never ask *How's Inside?*

Nothing wrong with breaking the record in better running shoes. Kind of like how basketball players used to wear converse, but now use shoes with better support/cushioning to absorb impact. Or how climbing shoe companies sell shoes with different kinds of rubber so climbers can pick and choose the best shoe for the given terrain they aim to climb

Yeah, more "support/cushioning" doesn't "absorb impact" better than less supportive and cushioned shoes. It's actually the opposite because those ridiculous boats on your feet f*ck up your biomechnics so bad. And that's not my opinion, that's a proven scientific fact.

@@revan552 I’m saying compared to converse lol. Barefoot has better absorption and is better for your body but noone plays basketball barefoot

Its not just the carbon fiber plate it's also the pressurized air pockets which hissed after u cut them open. They also act as springs.

Lol "i gave it all i could, and that was amazing" "You could do better"

I believe that it's the best runner with the right shoes to beat the time record. Not Nike!

The braking 2 project was run in a version of the Vaporfly 4%. The pink one shown in the video is the Vaporfly Next%, one generation newer. The Ineos 1:59 challenge in Vienna was also not run in an Alphafly Next%, but in a prototype version of it which is still suspected to have a different ('better') midsole.

Lol, I mistakenly closed this video coz I forgot that it was an what's inside video which was why I came to this video 🤣😂🤣

That dude will break anything on it's way, like literally.. hahaha btw, don't you ever hand him over your phone. lol 😂
