I'm not sold on the MaxFlys. I've done a lot of timing in practice between Nike's different spikes, and the MaxFlys have not shown to provide any advantage in top speed. In fact, my times are actually slightly slower in them compared to more traditional spikes. I recently picked up a pair of the redesigned Nike Ja Fly 4, and my times have been consistently faster. In fact, I just ran a practice PB at age 40: flying 10m in 0.94! With the higher speed and better feel on the curve, I'm definitely sticking with the Ja Fly in meets.
@@Nubako463 Actually, I wasn't that much faster! I ran all my PBs at age 30: 10.81, 21.69, 49.79. I've just stayed really consistent with training over the years, while trying to balance track, work, and family. My 100s were consistently at 11.0 last season at age 39. Hoping to be back under 11 at age 40.
@@kaiphan6335 I can't speak to that as I don't have the superfly elite 2s; I need to pick up a pair! I'm guessing they're pretty similar based on the look of the plates. Kenny Bednarek and Aaron Brown stick with the elite 2s for the 200m--not sure if anyone uses the Ja Fly 4 in the pros.
Thanks for the breakdown and keep doing your thing at 40! That’s inspiring. I just picked up the Ja Fly and I’m going to test those out vs the superfly elite 2. The max flys are definitely not for everyone so I can agree there
@@kingsleysc Can't wait to hear your comparison to the Superflys! Ja Fly 4 is Nike's lightest spike; I'm curious how the plate stiffness feels to you. As for the MaxFlys, people definitely think it's a person-to-person thing. Some run in a manner to take advantage of the plate/air whereas others might not.
Hey Aaron!! Thanks for the video, I’m getting back into training for the 800/1500 and I want the MaxFlys and also the new Victory 2 coming out in a few days. Another RUclipsr said that these two spikes have durability issues in part because of the air pockets. What is your opinion on that? Thanks once again and good luck with your season!!
What would be the best spikes to get for 100-200m runs? I was thinking these but idk. I’m a sophomore in high school now and last year I was running an 11.04 for the 100 in saucony spitfire 5’s
What would you recommend Ja Fly 4's or Superfly Elite 2's. I can get the Superfly's for £50 and the Ja Fly's for £65. Only reason I would consider the Ja Fly's is they're more lightweight and are better for 400m, however 100m and 200m are my main
this is my first time purchasing spikes but i’d just like to know your thoughts on the best for sprints and hurdles. i’m looking some for good bounce back and im just not sure yet
Hey man great video but I got a question I’m a junior in hs who last year ran a 56.77 in the 400h wearing the maxflys I was just curious if you think thos are the right spikes for that event or if I should try another type of sprinting spikes?
If you feel like there is enough cushion - use them, but some young athletes prefer victorys on 400m dash. But if you have maxflys - you cant make a mistake
I think it’s all about personal preference and running style that determines if a spike is a good fit. You can definitely try the superfly elite 2 and compare it to the max fly and see which you like better.
@@suspect_cursed personally I wouldn’t jump in max flys. Seems like the ones made specifically for jumping would be a better fit. If you have to jump in sprint spikes, I’d suggest superfly elite 2’s
Hi Aaron, I'm Luca from Padua! I have a question for you even tho this video is about spikes: did you try new zoom react infinity run 4? If so, are they better than model 3? Thank you either way! Love from Italy! ❤ (Next time you win Padua International Athletics Meeting please sign me other shoes! Don't go away immediately!)
They are prototypes not the official spikes. I only got access to them because I’m a Nike sponsored athlete. The final version of these will drop next year to the public
What track spikes are you racing in right now? 👇🏾
both white and black nike maxfly uptempo🗣️
@@eezilt7601 🔥🔥🔥

Not gonna lie, that sole remembers me to the one on the Adidas SP2
I’ve never tried Adidas but that’s interesting
great review! I’m not a sprinter myself, more of a middle distance guy. Was cool to see you at a track 3 minutes away from my house tho 💀
Hah nice. Maybe see you there some time 👍🏾
Hey man I am new ro your channel but the looks really interesting.
Thanks and welcome 👍🏾

That bottom plate reminds me of the Adidas SP2’s.
Did they make the carbon plate stiffer?
Feels bit stiffer yeah. We’ll see what the finished product looks like

Yo. When do they drop?
5/1/24
Do you have any recommendations on 400 to 800 meter spikes for next track season?
That’s not really my event but I would try the max fly for for the 400m and maybe the victories for the 8
As a Boy who Not allowed to buy 2 pairs is this a good pair for Long jump?(the old Maxflys from Tokio)
For long jump id definitely go with the long jump spikes Nike makes with the bubble!
@@kingsleysc Yes but i would also use this for Sprint( I had the LJ Elite from 2021 olympics and I think about it to Buy the maxfly
@@suspect_cursed personally I wouldn’t jump in max flys. Seems like the ones made specifically for jumping would be a better fit. If you have to jump in sprint spikes, I’d suggest superfly elite 2’s
@@kingsleysc ok or ist it better to Sprint in Jump Spikes
@@suspect_cursedabsolutely not. If jumping in max flys are your only option, do that over sprinting in jump spikes
how do you manage to keep your trunk tight and head aligned
Worked on my technique with my coach
Where can I buy those exact shoes in that color way
These are prototypes. Not available to the public
@@kingsleysc ok thanks
@@maxmancell7718You can’t get them from Nike, not on sale.
What is the difference between the regular maxfly and the maxfly uptempo
Lighter weight. Smaller bubble. Foot doesn’t feel as elevated in the back so feels more natural to walking to me, providing a little more control
I’m a 200m runner so I need something good on a turn but I have bad endurance and can’t keep speed that well so what spike do you recommend
Rn I’m running in the saucony spitfire 4s
Have to try some Nikes!
@@kingsleyscGive me some recommendations and I will for my senior season
Do you have any suggestions for the 400m
I like the superfly elite 2’s or Ja fly’s in the 400 but a lot of runners use the max flys
@@kingsleysc alright thanks man
Any hint on when we can expect these?? 👀
No official word but my guess would be right before the Olympics
Are these better than the Air Zoom Victory spikes cuz they look the same I dont see any noticeable difference.
Yes they are very different. They are sprint spikes so the plate is different. Victories are for distance events.
When can I get these and what are they called
These are max fly prototypes. The max fly 2 will release some time in the summer I’m assuming
so which one should i buy for 100m?
Where we can buy that new spike ?
These are just prototypes. Real launch comes next year with changes
Hi Aaron, I'm Luca from Padua!
I have a question for you even tho this video is about spikes: did you try new zoom react infinity run 4? If so, are they better than model 3?
Thank you either way! Love from Italy! ❤
(Next time you win Padua International Athletics Meeting please sign me other shoes! Don't go away immediately!)
What’s up Luca! I got you next in Padua 🙏🏾 I haven’t tried them yet but when I do I’ll review them for you 👍🏾
Where can you buy maxflys tgeur all sold out for me
Nike.com link in bio! They just restocked some in blue
i’ll be running in ja fly 4s 🗣️🔥
My next video will be the Ja fly 4 vs superfly elite 2 🔥 stay tuned
Wait I'm a woman, are these the best sprint spikes for men or male and female?
They are meant for anyone
No difference for gender
sadly nike will propably release ass colorways again.
this colorway is sick af
Have faith 🙏🏾
The can’t release just any color they have to use crazy color because they sell world wide
I wonder how long the spikes will last. Because over the summer I had to change 2 pairs.
Hopefully durability is better on this model
why are the new protos not for sell ANYWHERE? I'm not paying $900 on Ebay for a $200 spike lol.
They are prototypes not the official spikes. I only got access to them because I’m a Nike sponsored athlete. The final version of these will drop next year to the public
@@kingsleysc trying to understand the prototypes? is it not the real spike shoe
How come they didn't come out with purple colour?🤔
Where is the Nike unboxing videoooooo😭😵💫
How come you called the invincible a “flat”?
Track term for non spike shoe
How to buy it?
They aren’t released yet. They will drop sometime in the summer
Hello can u ship the spikes to India
Unfortunately no
When do they release?
No official release date. Summer will be my guess before the Olympics
nice kobes
Respect. Mamba forever
Yessir
🤝🏾
マックスフライ2？ 来年かな？
Yes we will see!
reminds me of mewtwo
Good call!
Bruh i just bought maxflys 😐 please don't say they got maxfly 2.0 next year
They probably won’t release until right before the Olympics if they do drop so don’t trip. Get some good use out of your max flys that you have now
When they drop?
No official date but guessing right before the Olympics next year
them shits gone pop just like the others
Let’s hope not
How many maxflys youve popped?
2 weeks out of shape...? Listen to Uncle Jim AB, " donuts..? We talkin' donuts..?.?.? " Oh Boy...!
Lol not out of shape, just not in race shape
