WHICH SPIKE??

Unread postby Noctlos » Thu Dec 29, 2005 7:24 pm

Okay, I need to make a decision. For those of you who know anything about it, which spike should I pick?
Nike Men's Zoom PV Lite
Mizuno Men's Triple Jump/Pole Vault
Reebok Men's JW Foster LJ/PV
New Balance Men's TJ1000F

I need to decide fast, and I have no store within a long range that carries them. Any others that I should consider?
... and thats it

If image weren't everything we'd all wear Mizuno LJ spikes. They were my favorite for two years until I wore them out and couldn't find em anywhere. They are lighter than the nikes and have alot more rocker. I PR'd in them and also in the LJ. I have nike LJ now and will go back to Mizuno when I buy another pair.
