Cutting Open The Nike ZoomX Vaporfly Next% (You won't believe what's inside!!)
The MOST controversial shoe in decades. Do the Vaporflys provide an unfair advantage? In this video I put these shoes through several tests, dissect them, and …

bom dia amigo sou do brasil precisamente aracaju-se é corredor de rua ,deu uma dó ver você cortando o tênis mais sei que foi por uma boa causa , meu sonho de consumo mais estar muito longe de minhas possibilidade em ter ,gostei do video super interessante ,em ver a tecnologia aplicada parabens irmão.
What shoes did you wear for your 3hr marathon Nick? Curious as I over pronate abit like yourself if neutral is ok or best to go with stability. Cheers.
After running these shoes for a few months, it’s pretty clear they have some sort of mechanical advantage. The easiest way to tell? Bend the toe of the shoe back and let it go. It feels like it has some progressive spring effect. It definitely helps your foot “push off”. They aren’t my favorite shoes or my most comfortable but they are my fastest.
I stopped buying Nike shoes since I noticed they fell apart the worst. Especially the tread coming off. My New Balance last better. I recommend 890 v5, I bought 8 pairs and I'm still OTM about them. BUT the general rule, to ones own, choose a mobile phone.
Why would a spring give an advantage? He knows nothing about physics. Then what does matter? When the shoe sole is pushed and released, some part of the energy is transferred into heat. Also every oscillating (moving) part wastes energy too. The third source is very obvious, it is the weight. Hence we want stiff and light shoes for running! The problem is, they must be comfortable as well.
This video is so funny.As a former world class masters runner from the 70's 80's 90"s ,I agree 100% that the world class marathon runners of today shaved off 2 minutes from there best times by wearing this runner.Let's see what Seb Coe, and the governing body say about this shoe.Is it cheating or not? To me it is not cheating as there is no drugs involved.If the top runners in the world all wear this runner how can they say it is cheating.It is the digital age folks,so get used to it.Great video laddy.I am still breaking up in laughter.
Cool to see the shoe cut open, but there was nothing scientific about this test at all. Personally, when I run, my heart rate starts off higher and then comes down a little as I warm up, so I would get the same HR result regardless of the shoe. There are so many variables here. Too many.
Hey Nick, I know this is a off chance and you don't know me. My name is Jasyn, I live in Hawaii and have dedicated myself to run the Honolulu Marathon in Dec 2020. I've never ran a marathon and the furthest I have ever ran in my life when I was in better shape in the military was 10 miles. My question for you is, do you have a run plan that you can share with me so that I can better prepare myself for the marathon? Thanks for the video!
NIKE revenue for the twelve months ending November 30, 2019 was $40.781B, a 7.05% increase year-over-year…..YOU SHOULD NOT BE PAYING OVER 200.00 FOR ANYTHING NIKE.

You jzt sawed through my heart sir. I am even having a piggy bank titled " "myvaporfly" in my bedroom.
Hello. I'm a TV reporter of news channel(YTN) of S.Korea. Would it be okay to use this video. I want to use the scene of dissecting the Vaporfly.
I wonder if this shoe is also highly beneficial for walking long distances in. For speed and comfort/reduced fatigue?
Scalpal?
Let's go get a pair
That patent on the paper if for the Alpha Fly (kipchoge's) not the Next %
i like this shoes … but only in my dreams haha
lol….dude thinks the carbon fiber is not a spring.

I am sure somebody could use your method and “prove” exactly the opposite. You did prove that Nike has a better marketing organization.
You said, you were not paid by Nike, but you sounded like a “scientist” hired by Nike.
Excellent take on the Vaporfly: https://youtu.be/Vi3QzA-h1Rs
If anyone out there has these, how many miles do you think you could get out of them? Are they race day only shoes or could you use them for training?
Did you say: "I don't want to damage it"? 🙂
Nice analysis and i am hoping i will get that shoe in giveaway
Doesn't he look satisfying when he speeds it up?
Why you damage the shoes
Give someone who really need that
Some poor runners who run barefoot
I am one of them 😭😟🇮🇳🇮🇳
Utter waste when so many people are without footwear…
That shoe is way more expensive than my phone…
cool…great shoe review….i'm gonna buy em
I Saw the Price @ $895 🤔
love this edit nick!
Nick giving a good review on the shoes on purpose so he can get sponsored by nike again:

Have you heard of PLACEBO effect….
That is what right now happening with you…..
You should have run 4mi switching back and forth between shoes to see if the heart rate went back up and replicated the first 2mi.
Oh mann.. Damm.. Your every video put smile on my face😂😂.thanks
