Verdict
The current Barricade stability shoe—lighter and quicker than the 13, still built to plant and recover, with real Lightstrike Pro push-off and a claw chassis that still owns the lateral lane.
The current Vapor speed shoe—lighter feel than a stability tank, better lockdown than older Pros, and still the Nike answer when you want to cut first and plant second.
A comfortable modern 98 that gives rec regulars easy depth without a boardy, tour-stiff feel.
