Prodigio Update after my Sky Race :
The race was 18 miles with 7300 feet of elevation gain running through 4 mountain peaks. The terrain was steep, some parts rocky, some annoying steep grassy parts and some ski slopes too. The Prodigio was a good choice. I loved the comfort throughout the whole race. It kept my foot very happy and the grip was working well on most surfaces, I only slipped a couple times on some wet, mossy rocks. I ran throgh some streams where my feet got wet but in 10 minutes I was dry thanks to the mesh knit, quick drying upper. My foot was stable in the shoe and I only had to retie my shoe laces one time, before the big downhill at the end. This race was a good test. The only negative is that now I see even more wear and tear on the shoe, but nothing too significant yet. I think the lugs will wear out early on this shoe, but time will tell.
All in all whatever I said in the review is still the same, comfortable, grippy trail runner with some durability problems.
@hungaroexplorer923 Great review straight off the trail/race! Thank you very much for this as I'm considering getting these.
Glad you had a good race 😀
@Ripper218 Thanks! Yes, I had a blast. My legs are pretty sore from all the steep descents and ascents but Sky Races are just another level. I am glad I choose the right shoe too!
Great review thank you Nandor. Be good if you do another of them after your sky race. I hope you do well and more so enjoy yourself in it.
Thank You! The race went pretty well, but my legs are wrecked from all the steep downhills at the end of the race :D. The shoe was a good choice.
Thanks for the video! 🙏
I love La Sportiva shoes, I have been using them for almost 10 years. I have had many pairs of Ultra Raptor I and II, Akasha I and II, Akyra, and more recently Jackal I and II, including all the Gore-Tex versions available. They are incredibly durable, well protected, well structured, and stable shoes. Sure the Ultra Raptor and Akyra are heavier but considering the high degree of protection they offer, they are not even that heavy. I love the Akasha and the Jackal too which are lighter and a bit less durable but more responsive. With the Prodigio they seem to have gone a bit too far, at least for my personal preferences. I guess it depends on what one is looking for: for those who want very light and dynamic shoes, they need to trade off protection and durability.
I totally agree with you with everything you said! That’s why I said in the beginning of the video that the Prodigio is different to the rest of the La Sportiva shoes. It lost the durability and protection for what these shoes are famous for in favor to be lighter, faster (maybe) and more responsive.
But I think the Prodigio still has its place and opens up a new style of La Sportivas.
@@HungaroExplorer thanks. Do you think it could work as a door-to-trail shoe going over longer sections of tarmac roads?
Yes, definitely! It can handle tarmac very well even on some road sections I found it comfortable.
@@HungaroExplorer thank you again! ❤
So, I have only experience from the Akasha and Akasha II, which I love. Why would I consider the Prodigios over the Akasha? They are more nimble and responsive? But maybe less cushioning? Would you use them for 100K for instance?
That’s a great question Richard. The Prodigio is a much lighter shoe with better cushioning and better comfort for the long ride than the Akasha 2. Nimble and responsive too. But the Akasha 2 is more stable, more durable and better for rockier, more technical terrain. These two shoes are very different I think.
I would definitely run 100k race in the Prodigio. What I heard from different sources that the Prodigio is designed to target ultra runners who run Western States type of races. Basically less technical ultras so I think that’s why they made this shoe lighter with less protection and super comfy.
If you love your Akasha’s you don’t have to change, but the Prodigio worrh a try, believe me.
@@HungaroExplorer thank you!😊
Would you take this shoe over the Tomir 2.0?
Well, that is a tough question. I have and love both. They are two very different shoes. The Tomir 2.0 has the best grip, built like a tank and can handle every terrain. The Prodigio is more comfortable in the long run and has a more dialed in fit for my foot. Let’s put it this way, I would choose the Tomir for more technical, muddy but shorter races and I would go with the Prodigio on longer, less technical races.
I would say the Prodigio is more a dry conditions, fire road, maybe somewhat technical trail running shoe. It's a way tighter fit too. Also, look at the tread difference on these two shoes. The Tomir 2.0 is wider in the toe box and the Tomir's materials are definitely more durable. The lugs are more aggressive than the Prodigio. I have them both and the Tomir excels in wet, very rocky, rooty, rough, above treeline mountain running. I use my Prodigio on shorter, dry, less high alpine environments and recovery runs. Two different shoes in my honest opinion.
