I also love this shoe in the US!, Used my Metaspped Edge + for a half recenlty but will use this for my Marathon in 3 months. It runs a little like the Asics metaspped edge plus but more forgiving..I would love to buy the new paris but it's $250 and I'm pretty happy with this, it's like a more stacked, with more drop version of the original Sky. Which I also really loved.
Thanks for checking out my channel and Superblast 2 video. I’m here returning the favor. The S4 sounds like a really good tempo shoe. Also, I know the ASICS store you were at nearby Tokyo Station. That’s a great store, I almost went there to buy the Superblast 2. Many runners like to run around Tokyo Station and the Imperial Palace, so they oftentimes use the shower rooms available in that store.
Yeah, it is a good tempo shoe - I just have a play on the track with it. Yes, I had no idea about the services the Tokyo store offered until I visited it - it is a great store, and hires out shoes too! I miss running in Japan for sure. Thanks - and I'll subscribe to your channel - nice memories of Japan. Cheers mate.
S4 is faster, and Superblast is more comfortable and forgiving, and not much slower. Can warm up and down in the Superblast, not really the S4. So if it isn't a big race, I'd use the Superblast. Big race, I'd get the S4 on for that.

Looks like a Magicspeed 2 with a bit more bounce/softness. That would be great, because the Magicspeed 2 is fiiiiiirm.
Have you tried the S4 for marathon since it is marketed as a shoe for sub 4 marathon?
No, and won't. Simply not interested in marathons.
How does it compare to the superblast for like a short distance of 2.4km race?
