If you like the Rocket X2, you’ll like this too …
Like the Rocket X2, the Tecton X2 is a similarly lightweight, carbon enhanced, cushioned and responsive shoe, except it’s made for trails! Both use carbon plates, but without making the shoe feel stiff or rigid. And both do have that rocker forward propulsion thing going on, but without being top heavy and without sacrificing lateral support — something I found to be an issue with some other carbon plated shoes I’ve tried, And you know what’s better than a rock plate? A carbon plate that springs you up and forward a bit when you step on root instead of just acting as a more passive layer to protect your foot from feeling that root. Great shoe for trail racing!
