I cant find good triple jump spikes that are in 10s or 10.5 I was wanting the same ones that I had last year, I had the hovr skyline tj but can’t find any. Great video man, thanks for the help!
I get ya. You might be able to find some older model high jump shoes online that won’t break the bank and then you could just get a shoe like a “ Nike zone rival multi event” for sprints and jumps. And remember, unless an athlete is an elite jumper, the newer model vs a older model isn’t gonna make a difference in performance but definitely will be cheaper. I would have a separate high jump shoe though because a lot of non elite facilities such as local high schools and city parks have some pretty poor surface conditions and it really helps having the heel spikes. However, depending on your budget and access to resources, that might not be the case so it’s possible to use one single shoe for all events I’ll explain: technically can use a triple jump shoe for hurdles, but it’s not advisable. I would NOT, however use sprint spikes for triplejump. Long jump and 400m can be run in some cases a middle distance shoe. (See my video about TENTOGLOU jumping 8.41m shoe controversy). Your two best options would be to get a sprint spike that has a thicker sole in the heel such as the “Nike zoom rivals multi event”, or a mid distant shoe or multi event shoe such as the “new balance fuelcell MD-X V2 spikes” as they typically have thicker and flatter midsole and heels, or even the adidas Adizero Ambitions. Most though have at least two pairs of shoes for the “track” and the “field” events. It’s all about preference though. I always jumped in a different shoe for each event but it’s a preference and budget choice. You should be able to find some cheap older model, jump and sprint spikes online that won’t break the bank but it’s still great quality. Hope that helps!
Can I buy the long jump shoes and use it for 100m,long jump, triple jump and possibly hurdles? Or should I just buy a pair for long jump,triple jump and another pair for 100m/hurdles
Good question, I’m assuming you’re talking about short hurdles. The short answer is yes! An ideal situation Is you want to get a triplejump shoe for the triplejump and long jump and a sprint spike for the 100m & short hurdles. However, depending on your budget and access to resources, that might not be the case so it’s possible to use one single shoe for all events I’ll explain: You technically can use a triple jump shoe for hurdles, but it’s not advisable. I would NOT, however use sprint spikes for triplejump. Long jump and triple jump you can use a long jump shoe, triple jump shoe or in some cases a middle distance shoe. (See my video about TENTOGLOU jumping 8.41m shoe controversy).

I’m doing long jump triple jump high jump and 4X100. I’m thinking about getting a long jump shoe or the Nike zoom rival multi track shoe. What do you think?
Great question! So unlike running shoes where you want extra space, with jumping spikes, you want it snug. You don’t want extra room because you want to minimize the possibility of your foot sliding around on your take off. There is a lot of shear or sideways forces in the high jump so you want your shoe to provide as much stability as possible. Unfortunately each shoe brand has a different design for how wide the forefoot or toe area is and it’s also gonna depend on how wide your feet are but I tend to go half size down on spikes compared to running or training shoes. The one thing you don’t want though is your toes curled. And because you pretty much have to buy jumping spikes online, your not gonna be able to try them out. So my suggestion is plan ahead. Make sure you understand the store or websites return policy and if you get them and they don’t fit, trade them for the next size up or down. But due this well in advance of when you are trying to compete so you have time to break them in! Great question! Hope this helps.
@@JumpersJunction helps a lot, I had size 13.5 adidas Adizero hj spikes but I noticed that there was about a centimeter from my toe to the end so I went ahead and got some 12.5s and hopefully they will feel a little more snug and allow for a better takeoff
Yes you want your foot snug. You want to minimize any shifting when you plant at takeoff. I typically go half size to full size down from my training shoes.
So you want your HJ spikes to be as tight as possible *with out causing pain/blisters or causing you to have to change your normal running patter. If you have to bunch your toes, that’s gonna cause you to run and jump different. If they are just kinda touching the top but arnt messing with your performance, than tight is good. But if your feet are still growing… your gonna want to get a new pair for next season
I think for this question it’s a comfort, Nike is gonna feel more like walking on a cloud. Which may or may not be a positive feeling. But also I think aesthetics is the big difference here. You can’t really go wrong with either but their appearance is very different.
I have really nice sprinting spikes, but could I just use those for polevault also? I heard it’s bad for your shins but that’s a sacrifice, I’m willing to make
Never sacrifice shin health. Lol shin splints can be pretty debilitating. That being said you could prob find a middle distance shoe or older model long/triple jump shoe or older model pole vault online at a discount somewhere. But it also depends on what level your at. I’d say once you get to the high school level at least you should have at lease 1 pair of dedicated jumping shoes. Just something with alittle bit of cushioning and grip.
is nike long jump elite good for triple jump？what should i choose for both long jump and triple jump. im wearing maxfly right now but i dont feel good using it for triple jump
You definitely can jump both in long or triple jump shoes but if your in the market for a new pair, if your wanting to stick with Nike you could grab a pair of the Nike Zoom Triple Jump Elite 2, but Pumas Evospeed Triple Jump 9 is a popular shoe among alot of elite triple jumpers. But ideally if you only want one shoe, using a triple jump shoe will suffice for both long and triple jump!

Hope that helps!
For high jump you really only need it on your takeoff foot but it’s probably best to get used to having them on both because if you have to compete on a worn or poorly maintained track surface your gonna want both
What do you mean studs in one foot and spikes in the other? I ordered the Nike high jump spikes should I not use all the ones they gave me or do I have to order different spikes
Hey there good question. So only high jump shoes and also javelin shoes have spike pin in the heel (typically 4). Some shoe manufacturers (such as ASICS) only have spike pins in the heel area on the take-off foot only, so when you purchase it, you will need to specify which foot you takeoff from. Most others have spike pins in both heel areas. Some athletes will have spikes on both heels, but some only prefer heel spikes on their takeoff foot. This is technically a personal preference. So if you don’t want spikes in the heel area of your non-takeoff foot, you can purchase what’s called “studs” or “blanks”. They have no spikes on them and they just screw into the pinhole where the spike would normally go. Technically, you could jump just without any spikes in the pin hole but you don’t want to get things like rocks or sand or dirt in the pin hole.
Hey there, prob not, even if you took the metal spikes out, most jump shoes have a hard plastic spikes already built into the bottom of the shoe so it would be pretty slippery and unsafe to walk on most surfaces.
I get ya. You might be able to find some older model high jump shoes online that won’t break the bank and then you could just get a shoe like a “ Nike zone rival multi event” for sprints and jumps. But if you only do long triple and high and not any other sprints that just a triple jump shoe (which would work for both long and triple) and a high jump shoe. And remember, unless an athlete is an elite jumper, the newer model vs a older model isn’t gonna make a difference in performance but definitely will be cheaper
@@vincec1103 My top 5 Triple Jump Shoes for 2023 are: 1: “Adidas Adizero Triple Jump/Pole Vault Spike” 2: “Nike Zoom Triple Jump Elite 2” -but are hard to find 3: “Puma - Evospeed Triple Jump 9” 4: “ASICS Triple Jump Pro 3” - not the best but it’s budget 5: “Under Armour HOVR Skyline TJ/PV”
Middle distance or a all purpose spike is prob fine. Just make sure it has some cushion in the midsole and heel and that the heel has some grip on the bottom.
are there specific shoes for jumping down? my guess would be, just a shoe with the most heel foam? i have trail running shoes for that matter, but maybe you/someone knows more?
@@JumpersJunction doing or better taking drops. its not always possible to roll out of these drops for my purposes. thank you for replying personnaly :)
@@TheValinov hey no problem. I’d say you were spot on with your first point. Shoes that have cushioning and support. Trail running shoes would be good. If I’m doing box jumps I’m prob using adidas adizero runing shoes or Nike Pegasus but “ON” shoe brand has some good shoes with a lot of cushioning. You want to avoid a shoe like “nobull”. That’s a calf strain waiting to happen.
Is it worth getting a pair of long jump shoes (I like that they are lighter and similar to sprint spikes) and triple jump shoes (for cushioning) or should I stick with triple jump shoes for both events?
In Europe is not allowed to jump the long jump with triple jump shoes but you can jumpntriple with long jump shoes, so, if you don't want to carry both...

How much space should be from my toes to the front of my highjump spikes?
Great question! So unlike running shoes where you want extra space, with jumping spikes, you want it snug.

@@lukebrumit2605 sure thing! Good luck!
Hey, I do all 4 Jumps but I only have the budget for one of these shoes. Which shoe is best for all 4?
A all purpose shoe or a triple jump shoe
How tight should long jump spikes be? Should it fit snugly without leaving any space?
Yes you want your foot snug. You want to minimize any shifting when you plant at takeoff. I typically go half size to full size down from my training shoes.
Great video! I'm looking for a tj spike that's going to offer most stability for narrow foot. Have you come across a standout in that department? TIA!
I just got a pair of Adidas HJ spikes. My big toes touch the front and press a bit. Should I send them back for a bigger size or should I keep them?
So you want your HJ spikes to be as tight as possible *with out causing pain/blisters or causing you to have to change your normal running patter. If you have to bunch your toes, that’s gonna cause you to run and jump different. If they are just kinda touching the top but arnt messing with your performance, than tight is good.
But if your feet are still growing… your gonna want to get a new pair for next season
Bro. Puma evospeed 10 triple jump or Nike Elite 2 triple jump, whichone should i buy
I think for this question it’s a comfort, Nike is gonna feel more like walking on a cloud. Which may or may not be a positive feeling. But also I think aesthetics is the big difference here. You can’t really go wrong with either but their appearance is very different.
@@JumpersJunction thanks bro 😊
I currently do LJ and I'm interested in pole Vault, so I was thinking about getting the Nike Zoom Rivals Jump. Is that a decent choice?
Ya pole vault and long jump have very similar mechanics so any shoe you would use for long jump will be ok for pole vault
I am a decathlete. Should buying msxflys be my best option?
Ya or the Nike zoom rivals m or the New Balance FuelCell MDXv3 and then just throw in regular training shoes or buy a pair of throwing shoes.
I want triple jump spikes what are the best options i want to use it as a option for jump as well
I am a big fan of Puma EvoSpeed Triple Jump 9
I have really nice sprinting spikes, but could I just use those for polevault also? I heard it’s bad for your shins but that’s a sacrifice, I’m willing to make
Never sacrifice shin health. Lol shin splints can be pretty debilitating. That being said you could prob find a middle distance shoe or older model long/triple jump shoe or older model pole vault online at a discount somewhere.

Hey i do 100 200 long jump and triple jump as my event should i opt for multi event spikes or just sprint spikes?
I only pv but what spikes would you recommend for pv I’ve gone 2 years without using spikes and want to use them for next year
I like puma for pole vault right now.
Do you have a vid/series like this for hurdles,100,200 ect- 2 mile. My coach mixed me in all non related events and im wondering what would work
I'm currently using the Nike zoom rival m9 for lj/tj. Would you say there's a noticeable differens between that and a dedicated lj spike.
Spike plate and foam. But if your doing long and triple that your prob ok with the shoe assuming it’s in good condition
@@JumpersJunction Alright, thanks man. Managed to find a pair of new adidas lj spikes for 30 bucks (!) so I tought I would give them a go anyways.

No I would not recommend that. The shoes are too flat and in long jump you need speed!
can u use the nike lj elite also for triple jump?
Yes you can but be careful because that air pocket can pop

I like Adidas for TJ and actually like Puma the best but the correct sizes can be hard to find for both.
Can I use a jump shoes as a casual shoes for daily activities?
Hey there, prob not, even if you took the metal spikes out, most jump shoes have a hard plastic spikes already built into the bottom of the shoe so it would be pretty slippery and unsafe to walk on most surfaces.
