Verdict
The yellow spin frame club players still mean when they say Aero—Gen9 is a bit more muted than the 2023 beast, still the clearest primary demo in the spin lane.
The classic all-court Radical—control-leaning 98 with Auxetic 2.0 feel, enough spin to shape, and real street-price value if you supply the pace.
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.
