Wave Sky 9

Boston 13, saucony ride 18/19 or endorphin azura? Hi everyone! I am heavy runner, about 230lb, 5.11.Already own nimbus 27 and wave sky 9, but want something firmer, with lower stack and faster. Right now choose between those 3 shoes, but i want something durable, that will last long. What would you recommend guys? Thanks in advance!

glideride feels unstable to me...nimbus feels stable but foam doesn't feel bouncy...just squishy...of the two, I would rather wear nimbus 27, but my new fave is the Mizuno Wave Sky 9...by far the best shoe out there

Wave Sky 9, Skecher Aero Burst and Gel Nimbus 27 are also good...

Aero burst is like walking on rubber. Not as stable but nice. It is a firmer version of the vomero plus. Wave sky 9 has a lot of cushion but doesn’t feel like a max cushion shoe. Very planted.

The novablasts are seriously unstable. I was exactly like this and they caused me no end of issues. I think for a new runner I would steer clear because your tendons and ligaments won’t be strong enough to hold up to the beating they’ll take trying to stabilize your feet and ankles in these shoes. Try something like the Mizuno sky 9 if you want lots of cushioning in a stable but neutral shoe

try mizuno wave sky 9, perfect balance between squishy and stable cushion.

I have the Neo Vista 1, Neo Zen, Wave Sky 9 and two Neo Vista 2s. I converted my Wave Sky 9 to a walking shoe since I’m on my feet at work all day and they’re supportive and comfortable. Neo Vista 2 is my favorite Mizuno running shoe. Went 1/2 size down. If you enjoy the Neo Zen you will not be disappointed. Definitely 💯 percent worth a try.

The Neo Vista 2 is a great, fun shoe for your long runs, training long runs. The Wave Sky 9 will pamper your feet for recovery runs, when your legs are beat up.

I have run in all of them accept the rise 3 and to me, the Wave Sky 9 fits the bill. It’s definitely the most cushioned, easy, long run shoe. The other shoes are max cushioned but have some performance qualities, push you to go a bit faster.

I think the wave sky is a great shoe, I love Mizuno, the Neo Zen, the Neo Vista . . . I was just trying to stay within ASICS since OP has gotten along well with the brand.

Haven’t tried any of the shoes listed above. I use Evo SL for long runs. I actually find them to be supportive and not terribly unstable. I’ve been putting the Mizuno Wave Sky 9 through the paces but it’s really not a long run shoe unless you want to run easy.
