FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) April 8, 2009 --
The Nike Hyperdunk is a first in the world of basketball shoes. With Nike Flywire technology providing maximum support with a minimum amount of materials, the Nike Hyperdunk ends up being one of the lightest full size basketball shoes ever. The full-length Phylon midsole with a Zoom Air unit in the heel combined with Lunar Foam in forefoot cushions against court shock. Solid rubber outsole with herringbone traction pattern delivers fantastic grip. The outsole seems softer that most of Nike's basketball shoe line-up, allowing the shoe to grip and cut very quick. By using the Flywire and avoiding heavier materials such as patent leather and synthetic materials the Hyperdunk weighs in at an amazing 13.2 oz. A basketball shoe of similar proportions and ankle support would be somewhere in the area of 16-18 oz. This equates to 18% lighter than the standard basketball shoe. The sole of the Hyperdunk is made from Lunar Foam, a material created by NASA. This is used in the forefoot sole to give the shoe shock absorption and a great feel. It almost feels as if you are playing in a pair of super cushioned socks. The heel is made up of a Zoom Air unit that keeps the Hyperdunk ultra light weight but still gives a cushioned ride. Zoom Air is fantastic! It's so thin and firm, it's like riding on tiny springs. The ride is quick, not like stepping on a blow up mattress, it's cushion and rebound instantly. No sinking here. The Hyperdunk is so remarkable that the entire USA basketball team wore them in the 2008 summer games to win the gold. Now the signature shoe of Kobe Bryant, the Nike Hyperdunk, has become an industry icon. In an average game Kobe will run about 2.5 miles, so shaving weight from his basketball shoes is critical.
All-in-all the Nike Hyperdunk is by far the lightest basketball shoe on the court. So look for Nike to add this technology to other shoes in the upcoming months as well as improving the Hyperdunk. Could it go lighter? Could it get more supportive? You bet! This is a fantastic basketball shoe that will improve your game.
