The Science Behind the Cushioning
The FF TURBO™ PLUS foam is engineered to compress upon impact, effectively absorbing shock and reducing stress on your joints. This compression is immediately followed by a responsive rebound, utilizing the stored energy to propel you into your next stride. This dynamic interaction between compression and rebound not only enhances comfort but also boosts performance by minimizing energy loss.
