    If a shoe is squeaky it doesnt always mean the traction is good

    • @5-a-side
      @5-a-side  7 лет назад +14

      It usually does though. We're not just talking about any type of squeak - this is the one where the rubber is squeaking on the floor because it's gripping.

      kyriediculous irving an example is the Jordan 31 super squeaky but traction sucks

    • @5-a-side
      @5-a-side  7 лет назад +6

      True, you've got a point there. But on many shoes it is the case that the squeak will tell you that you're gripping better than without a squeak.

    What is it called when I accelerate and I almost do a burnout if u will Lol. Like I start to accelerate and my feet get no traction. Like a car burnout. What is the term for that?? Please respond.

    • @5-a-side
      @5-a-side  5 лет назад +1

      I don't know if there's a particular term. I'd just call that slipping. Or just not getting any traction.

    • @5-a-side
      @5-a-side  8 лет назад

      It should work on any shoe. It's just good old soap and water so shouldn't do any harm. The brush just allows you to get right into the crevasses.

      You can use any non-marking shoe, but ideally you do want to get a special indoor football shoe.

      Yes, it should work for any shoe. It's just soap and water and a bit of scrubbing. If you're at all worried, go very gently with your scrubbing at first.

      @5-a-side  7 лет назад

      Yeah, it should work. It certainly won't do any harm - you're just making them super clean so the sole can grip like it is supposed to. Like it did when it was fresh out the box.

    • @5-a-side
      @5-a-side  6 лет назад

      The squeak isn't everything - it's how they perform that count. If you're still not getting grip after cleaning them back, there's not much else that's going to work. Sure, you can put sticky substances on them, but these quickly gather more dust and dirt, losing grip again. Could be worth seeing how your teammates are getting on with the same court as you - are they finding it easier to grip?

      @5-a-side  8 лет назад

      if you've done this and tour shoes aren't grippy, then it's probably the shoe. Maybe you'll need new ones - see what your teammates are wearing. are they getting more grip?

    • @5-a-side
      @5-a-side  8 лет назад

      you can try some other things, which are mentioned in the article I linked through to in the video description. but the best option might be to try different shoes.

      Redstone Dancer - this is meant for indoor shoes. if you mean that they'll pick up dust and dirt by wearing them on the way to the court then yes, you're right. We'd suggest wearing a different pair to get to and from the game so you keep your court shoes as clean and as grippy as possible.

    • @5-a-side
      @5-a-side  8 лет назад +1

      If you've cleaned them up and you're still not getting the grip you need then they just aren't going to get much better. Sure, you can use sticky products, but they don't work for very long. If other people are gripping and you're not - after you've done a full clean of them - then you're going to have to look at new shoes. Ask others how they feel their grip is and see which shoes they're wearing - that will help you know what to buy.

    • @5-a-side
      @5-a-side  8 лет назад

      At the end of the day, if it isn't gripping after you've fully cleaned the sole, then you need to check out two other things. 1) Are the shoes of your teammates gripping the court properly? If yes, then it's a problem with your shoe, and you'll probably need to look into getting new ones. 2) If everybody is slipping then it's a problem with the court, which can happen if it's not cleaned well enough and gets dusty - in this case ask your venue to clean it more regularly. Hope that helps.

    • @5-a-side
      @5-a-side  7 лет назад

      mystery man that's good you found something that works for you. we've tried glue and also hairspray and, whilst they give you a very short boost in grip, they just quickly pick up extra dust and after a couple of minutes the grip is worse than without it.

    • @5-a-side
      @5-a-side  8 лет назад +1

      Then you're going to need to look at getting a new shoe. Cleaning will only bring back the grip that is there. Temporary fixes like spraying on substances or covering with things don't usually work - best long term solution is a new pair.
      Annoying if it costs a lot but make sure you buy a durable pair in future.
