This guy is my hero...he makes a living for decades telling the same things no matter what model is talking about🤣. "Its aggressive downturn, very precise and sensitive, very powerful on the toe but flexible enough to smear very well"...
Hes the ultimate car salesman of the climbing world. But same with the Scarpa british guy, who always takes the last into his hand and starts making these aggressive movements with a pen following the shape of the shoe.
absolutely love these shoes for conditioning my feet right now. the performance is there too at a really high level but it takes so much more effort and strength to utilize the shoe. I want to see what happens with these shoes on the wall when my feet are fully conditioned.
I use Skwama 39.5 and Theory 40.5. I love both of these pairs of shoes; Skwama for outdoors, Theory for indoors. I tried 40 Mantra and omg...it's like the Theorys after breaking + twice the comfort - I can get straight in to business with these. When I purchase a pair, I think they will replace my Theorys as my fave regular gym shoes. I climb v7-v8 indoor and I feel they will be amazing for this. Would love better colours though :-)
Will there also be a Mantra S like there used to be? I still have a pair of original Mantra's, I keep them as a museumpiece, and it's pretty fun to bring them to the gym every once in a while :P. I'm curious to the new Mantra. My only negative feedback so far would be that they arent very good or classy looking with all these "art lines" on it. I like the old design a lot more. It might stop me from getting them. But that's just a personal taste I guess.
Almost a perfect shoe, but the heel is so bad. I have to put on different shoes if I know I’m gonna be doing any heel hooking. Reminds me of the heel on the old testarossa. Everything else on the shoe is perfect though. I really enjoy them for slab climbing outside, tiring on the feet, but so fun to feel every little feature on the rock.
@@andrewscott5059 Yeah, I was thinking the same, the only difference I see is the "no edge sides", but I thing think it would matter for most of us. But at least the price is almost doubled! :D
Will you continue with the "speedster" in 2024? If not which of the updated 2024 models is closest to it? Love the "no edge" and I need an asymmetric wide shoe
Could you please put them in your shoe chart showing aggressiveness contra volume?

what is your street size?
Would you wear them outside? It sounds like they might not hold up
@@finnsmyth8303 sorry but I turned my notification off. I am street shoe size EU42
1:45 "To have the most funny climbing possible" Gotta love the language barrier 😂

Tried them on at a demo at my gym and they were pretty sick!

Ive waited for theeeese so long 😍
Should I size these to the same size I wear the La Sportiva Solutions?
Good question, I felt it would beore like Futura (.5 size less solution sizing)

Hmm how is this diff from rebranded cobras?
These are no edge, cobra doesn't have p3, different heel - basically everything except the fact that they both are slippers is different my dude.
Don't worry, it's not a rebranded cobra, it's a rebranded speedster!
by being completely different

These might be enough to temp me away from my trusty Futuras...
Any input on sizing? Will it stretch similar to say the Katana lace?

whats the difference between mantra and speedster? just nerrower last? they look the same and speedster is like half of the price
When are we getting these in the US?
Troppo innovativa per l'arrampicata nel 1989 😀
Is it vegan? Like the modern way of ecological and ethical way of living should be…?
