0:08
got here we previewed them here a minute
0:10
ago go ahead thank you very much
0:12
appreciate it I'm very excited to talk
0:14
to you about a couple new updates that
0:15
are coming to Brooks Road and Trail next
0:18
year starting with our super super fast
0:21
Hyperion Elite 4 PV this is the shoe
0:25
that all our athletes have been wearing
0:26
in marathons from Chicago to New York
0:28
City and it's been setting some PBS so
0:32
this is the Hyperion Elite 4 and we are
0:34
adding in our brand new DNA gold midsole
0:37
compound the DNA gold is a pea foam
0:41
compound that is our lightest fastest
0:43
most responsive highest energy return
0:46
cushiest midsole compound that we have
0:49
ever done and we are adding it into the
0:51
Hyperion Elite 4 that is much needed to
0:54
go fast in those marathons and half and
0:56
so what what happened to the weight more
0:58
or less did it go up down it goes down
1:01
and uh goes down and I I let's see if I
1:04
looked at my notes Here what did you
1:07
have9 7.9 good and full legal stack
1:11
height and so on mhm okay so this one is
1:13
going to be maintaining the same stack
1:15
lower weights and faster lighter heavier
1:18
and really really fun to run it thank
1:20
you oh what do you got next yeah oh
1:22
there's more oh we got more one of my
1:25
faor into the if you like to race but
1:28
you also like to train the tyrian Max 3
1:31
is a huge update so we are adding 8 mm
1:34
of cushion more underfoot and adding
1:37
that DNA gold paa Compound on the top
1:40
stack and using a DNA Flash version two
1:45
on the bottom stack that way the ride is
1:47
fast responsive but still maintains a
1:50
really good amount of stability from
1:51
heel to toe and you add stack height
1:54
adding stack height but the weight stays
1:56
the same which is really great and the
1:58
price goes to 200
2:00
yeah it's going be really really fun and
2:01
underneath there was some cool new
2:04
geometry cutting in some new geometry
2:06
these are ways to save weight smooth out
2:09
the transition make the weight go down
2:11
and the transition go faster and you had
2:14
a new speed Vault plate in there right
2:16
so the new rocker system is called rapid
2:18
roll it's going to maintain a fast and
2:21
Rapid roll
2:23
from okay a little less pronounced than
2:26
um the very front than the version two
2:29
the the the first version correct yeah
2:31
because it was a bit pronounced abrupt
2:34
but cool but AB first version was very
2:36
very trainy second way was second ver
2:39
was like hey let's get some people
2:40
running in this more races more faster
2:43
more cushion more responsiveness the
2:44
third version is just taking it into the
2:47
next Stratosphere of responsive fast but
2:50
still really really fun to train it so
2:53
that I've been wearing right now that
2:55
tring in myself and I I love it really
2:58
really love the upper as well a very
3:00
very lightweight engineered single layer
3:02
mesh upper with a flat tongue sock
3:06
construction that's going to be more
3:08
somewhat similar to the elite correct
3:10
yes nice and nice and close to your foot
3:12
maintains on your foot and you're good
3:14
to go let's talk Trail yeah oh oh did we
3:18
do ghost yet would you like to yeah
3:20
let's do ghost real quick been one of
3:22
our course more popular shoes in the
3:24
past 17 years it's on the 17th version
3:26
this is using our uh nitrogen injected
3:29
DNA lock version 3 Midol foam the big
3:32
update to this is was just getting more
3:34
cushion Under Foot probably well known
3:37
that people like cushion people like
3:38
softness they want to feel comfortable
3:39
on their runs so we're taking the stack
3:42
uh the offset to uh 10 mm we're adding 3
3:45
mm of cushion in the forefoot 1 mm of
3:48
cushion in the heel that way it's softer
3:50
it's more comfortable more protective
3:51
Under Foot excellent let's move on yeah
3:55
this is Mike's favorite
3:57
shoe very excited to talk about these
3:59
spring 25 Catamount cor so this is a new
4:03
update as well starting with the brand
4:05
new skyall uh Trail Plate System and
4:09
this plate is a fulllength injected pack
4:12
renew plate it is injected and it's
4:15
curved so it starts in the middle of the
4:16
foam and curves down into the forefoot
4:19
that way it's going to give you that
4:20
really really fast transition with the
4:22
DNA Flash version to light it's soft
4:26
we're adding it's C molded so we don't
4:28
have a glue layer which you you had in
4:31
the um over here in the the first
4:33
version or the the glycerin Max 2 the uh
4:38
the uh Cascade 19 okay 19 yeah and so
4:41
that is going to be your fast your
4:43
responsive your lightweight fun trail
4:45
shoe for tell us about the upper cuz
4:47
there's some neat things going there you
4:49
told us yeah so the upper is made from a
4:51
really unique kind of compound uh or a
4:54
unique material called TP we use this
4:57
kind of TPU as protective pieces
5:00
and we were able to find a way to turn
5:02
it into a fiber form so in these Little
5:04
Fibers it's all these tpe fibers super
5:07
super strong it's super resilient it's
5:10
durable but it maintains all that
5:11
Comfort breathability it's hydrophobic
5:14
it's abrasion resistant so it's going to
5:16
increase the durability of the shoe but
5:17
it's going to maintain the Comfort this
5:19
is going to be in the Catamount and the
5:20
Cera and then the weight here we had um
5:24
9.7 Oz 275 g stack height 3428
5:29
correct and the outsole just real quick
5:31
and the outsole is our Trail Tac green
5:34
this is our Pro proprietary branded
5:37
Trail rubber we love this rubber it's
5:39
really really sticky and grippy and wet
5:41
Rock and dry Rock and we have these very
5:43
unique penetration geometry lugs that's
5:46
going to dig into dirt and provide a ton
5:49
of grippy traction when you're making
5:51
turns making Corners it's stable on
5:53
downhill it's resilient and propulsive
5:55
on uphill really really fun shoter run
5:57
in excellent and we got some big big
5:59
news here for the Cascadia big big news
6:02
on our 19th version 19 years in the
6:05
making of the Cascadia so we are
6:08
bringing DNA Loft version three nitrogen
6:12
injected foam into the Cascadia we are
6:15
uh using a brand new Trail adapt system
6:18
so our Trail adapt system is a whole
6:20
system that integrates a rock plate
6:22
segmented outso pods and a very very
6:25
flexible minil to morph and adapt over
6:27
Trail so it's going to be stable it's
6:30
going to be soft and smooth on all
6:32
surfaces we have tested this on almost
6:35
every park across the world I will say
6:38
and it performs sof NE smooth and then
6:41
with that DNA LOF version 3 it's super
6:44
soft Under Foot we are adding uh 2 mm of
6:48
cushion in the heel 4 mm of cushion in
6:50
the forefoot so you're getting all the
6:52
