Asics Superblast 2 vs. Novablast 4 | Which one should you BUY??

[@thadbiser]

NB4 is a sauna for sure. Hope breathability is much improved in v5.

[@matthiassventoest6800]

good stuff.., I just picked up the SB 2, and the ghost max 2.., so I’m good on daily trainers until the the EVO SL, comes out. But by then maybe the nova blast will be on sale. good comparison video

[@jasonjogs]

thank you, i also cannot WAIT for the EVO SL to come out!

[@sk8bord007]

Will you be reviewing the Brooks glycerin max? As a bigger runner (+200lbs) I appreciate your reviews as I'd assume my running experience is closer to yours than other reviewers.

[@jasonjogs]

just placed an order for them this morning, stay tuned! really appreciate the support and glad i can help 🫡

I've SP1 and NB4,great shoes. SP1 when I want to move a little quicker. Even though I'm looking forward to the invincible 4,1 and 2 were my favourite ever daily trainer.

[@jasonjogs]

By SP1, is that the superblast 1?

[@kevrunsascott]

Been tempted with every Novablast since the v1 (still have it with about 120miles). My latest surprise was the Noosa Tri 16. Definitely not a triathlon shoe, fast rocketed tempo shoe that I’m really enjoying.

[@jasonjogs]

i’ve always been curious about the noosa tri series… may have to try them one day!

Can you review the best treadmill shoes? Unfortunately I run on treadmill 98% of the time.

[@jasonjogs]

Both of these shoes would work well on the treadmill! Typically if the shoe works well on the road in dry weather conditions, they work well on treadmills for me. Treadmills are nice as typically they provide a little bit of impact protection as they have a little bounce/suspension (not exactly sure what’s the most accurate term for it)

@jasonjogs Sounds good thanks. I have the novablast 4, NB x Balos, just had bid accepted on 1080 v13, fuel rebel v4, asics gel keyano 14, cloud eclipse, and now hoping i can grab the super blast 2 as you recommended. Would you put the superblast 2 above the NB x balos? I have a lot of testing to do.

I only have new balance moreV5 and I'm looking to have a rotation, would Superblast2 and the upcoming Novablast5 be a good 3 shoe rotation or just get either SB2 or NB5 and get a different one for my third? I'm training for my first half and probably don't need a plated shoe.

[@jasonjogs]

I think that sounds like a fantastic rotation! If you wanted to, I think you could get away with a 2 shoe rotation. SB2 and More v5 would work or NB5 and More v5 (even though i havent ran in the NB5 yet haha). Regardless, I think that 3 shoe rotation would be perfect for your needs! Can’t wait to get my hands on the NB5.
