TRX – a revolution in Traction Dynamics
The heel of the TRX touches down earlier and impact is gradually distributed over the heel part as the sole makes full contact with the ground. All-round grooving of wedge also absorbs side pressures.
Sudden, full impact heel strike of conventional running shoes leads to discomfort and risk of injury.
More propulsion. The extended sole area of the TRX gradually stores up touch-down energy as the foot lands. At lift-off.
this energy is released as a propulsive force that throws the leg into longer strides.
Through a dramatic break-through in Traction Dynamics, adidas has now created a unique running shoe with the exact degree of cushioning for both comfort and stability. The combined effect of the carefully determined width of the heel, the extended sole area and grooved wedge not only leads to perfect stability, but also to a 25% reduction in initial heel impact.
TRX is creation of Adi Dassler, the man behind the adidas name.
