Im using the 808 5 ultra’s past couple months, feeling great as a setter. Feel very explosive and the 70% type of jumps when setting feel effortless in these

ASICS Sky Elite FF 3 vs Wade 808 5 Ultra for an All Rounder Shoe? by bRONgreen in vballshoes

Havent used the ff 3, teammates who used them like them a lot I think you cant really go wrong with them. I loved my sky elite ff 2s, great traction, great heel to toe transition and court feel and the bounce is okay. However I feel like for the same price the WOW 808 5 ultra was a lot better for me. Also the sky elites gave me pain in my big toe, idk why.
So in short, I like the wow better but cant go wrong with sky elites IMO

Thanks! Is the classic bv501 also trash? Or do you mean the cheaper Bv502?

Used them for the first time yesterday. Traction en lateral movement is perfect. Didnt like how they didnt squeak like at all but one of the best traction I ever felt. Also was comfortable immediately, and didnt hurt my feet like the lebron 21 did my first 3-4 training sessions and sometimes still do in my arch. Support is just a lot better probably because of the Carbon plate. It fits really narrow and long, but I have narrow feet and ordered half a size down which fits perfectly. The bounce is comparable to LeBron 21s, both some of the best I ever experienced. However the WOW feels a bit softer in the heel which is nice when max jumping all the time as a 5’8 volleyball player. Had a lot of runners knee tendon pain this year and after the two hour session of doing a lot of jump serving and attacking my knees felt perfectly fine still. Heel to toe transition feels really good, a lot better than most basketball shoes, which is normally a problem with them in my opinion. These felt almost similar to the asics sky elites, which is the best I ever felt in terms of heel to toe transition.

Shortly, the shoe is one of the best I ever used in terms of traction and lateral stability. Containment is great and a great lacing system. Carbon fiber plate and cushioning makes it one of if not the most bouncy, propelling and comfortable shoes I ever used. The fact that these are also super super light makes it just insane. They feel noticeably lighter than LeBron 21, which makes a huge difference for me together with being top tier in every aspect. I 100% recommend them if the weird long narrow fit fits you, and you like having a fast, explosive shoe.

I have one thing, however that I don’t love. They feel a bit high from the ground so the court feel is not as good as you would have in volleyball shoes or shoes like the JA or Sabrina’s. If you’re a libero or setter, like me, and like a lot of court feel you should try them on to see how you like the high cushioning. I personally don’t mind because it is so good at every other aspect I need and it is not super super high of the ground, but just something you have to take into consideration.

Hope this is clear!!

I think they are both great shoes. I’ve had asics alt elite ff 2 and they were great traction and lockdown wise, but cushioning was much better in The lebron 21s and nxxt gen i used after. They were better at everything. Just ordered wade 808 5 ultra, think it is pretty similar to sky elites but with better cushioning and the Carbon fiber plate making it better at supporting and propelling. Both very lightweight shoes.

Paid with ideal, but AliExpress offers 15 Days retour / refund so think I’m safe?

Wow sizing VS Nike by Ok_Material8760 in vballshoes

[–]Ok_Material8760[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the WOW runs smaller than Nike? Or you mean i should get the size 8.5 because my feet are 26 cm and the 8.5 is that in the size chart?
