Dude, Thank YOU for all these reviews. And don't worry, take care of your wrist, we'll definitely still be here giving you support, brother! Not too many people do what you do and you have developed quite a community on TH-cam and the internet in general. Keep up the great work!
No man thankyou! Defintely shedding light on the elements we all as players need to play our type of game. Whether its speed, traction or cushioning you cover everything and it is very much appreciated as you can see from your views or subscribers. Thanks alot
i appretiatie you making these videos. you're the only person that i can find that's non biased and knows what they're talking about when it comes to performance shoes. heal fast man
thanks for the video mate, you're so comprehensive with each shoe and very clear about what each shoe presents. i have absolutely no idea how people can still be asking questions like if the hyperposite is good at a guard position in comments section when you just said they'd be great for a C.
LMFAO Mr. Nightwing @ 5:13 "alot people obviously.....don't understand what a review is" xD Great video as well as the organization that you put into it. I hope the Kobe 8 will be on 2013. Thanks
Great year with lots of very helpful reviews! You might not getting any younger (as you said) but you're getting wiser! I wish you to stay strong, good luck with the hand and speedy recovery!
Awesome reviews bro, covers all the subject areas, nice and detailed. You also distinguish between actual performance review and your personal preferences which not many people do properly. Shout out from the UK
I'm sad to see the Kobe 7 on your "worst of the year" mentions, though I understand where you're coming from with your problems (these things are subjective, after all). The Kobe 7 Elite (maybe there is a significant difference between the Elite and regular versions, not sure) has been my go-to hoops sneaker for the past 8 months. Everything about it seems like it was tailored specifically for me. Thanks for everything you do, Nightwing! I always get excited when I see a new video in my inbox!
Yo Nightwing kind of surprised about the cp3.6. I really wanted to get it around october but the performance review you talked about the shoe not having a lot of cushion (which i need for my shins) and not very good heel lockdown. Next thing you know i see it as your number 1 without noting the flaws stated earlier. Just pure praise. How did it end up being your favorite shoe?
Would you say the KD 4 or Kobe 7 is better? I have KD 4s and love them and am getting Kobe 7s, do I have something to look forward to, or will it be a step back?
Hey nightwing, i'm just wondering where you rank the Kobe 8's for gaurd shoes. I'v seen your review on the Kobe8 and im deciding weither to buy the CP3's or Kobe8's. Also keep up the good work!
Where did you get that colorway of the Jordan CP3? I love them. Think it will be my sneak for 2013 men's league. Also, do I spy the new Ninja Turtle figures? haha those are sick. But yo, with a name like Nightwing, where is the Batman figures? You a fan of Batman TAS and the Nolan films, bro?
Hey, Im a 6 foot 141 pound forward. I can decide wich shoe to get, Im really into the D rose 3.0 at the moment. Im a really fast player, a boss at fastbreaks should i get Hyperdunk 2012 or Rose 3.0?
Would it be better to buy the Adirose 3 instead of the CP3 IV? How long does it take for the traction to become grippy on the Rose? Because if the traction is the only problem with the Rose and it doesn't take that long for them to become grippy, it seems more reasonable to buy them. Please advice.
Awesome video nightwing, whenever i need a performance review on a certain sneaker i go to your videos to get the review. By the way, didnt u say the CP3 .VI lacks ankle support?
I stated in the video very clearly that there is a cut off date and the Kobe 8 were release well after the cut off date. Please listen to what is said in the videos before asking questions that are already covered.
I said they lacked heel lockdown. Forefoot fit I loved, you can double check the review if you'd like. Just bc I love a shoe doesnt mean I wont critique it.
Good job on the reviews. I can really tell you know your stuff. Quick questions though, I noticed on your website you have the D.Rose 3 as your #2 in the Top 10 of 2012, however in this vid, you only have it as #4 even for the guard category? Just noticed because I am deciding if I should get them. Thanks! Also, what was your opinion on the Answer 5?
Hey nightwing! I have a question for you! My flint 13s are becoming unglued in the middle under where your foot is but all the edges are fine. Its jut a spot under my foot where its separating. Any suggestions?
Nightwing, Just found your site and videos. Thanks for sharing your honest experienced-based reviews and thoughts. May I ask what camera and lights you use? Everything looks great bro.
GREAT video as always man. Was really looking forward to this, and i'm psyched that the CP6's were #1! I've been wanting to buy purely based off of the traction ALONE, but this just solidifies my decision to buy em. Keep it up man, but try to heal up as well! Lol. Peace.
Straight up I appreciate everything you have done. Your videos keep on getting better and better, and so does your site. You deserve all the support and recognition you have received thus far. "who the **** says thus?" - Rez
Nightwing. i stumbled upon your videos a few days ago and i cant stop watching them! best reviews for shoes ive seen yet!! what do you think about the 2012 nike hyperdunk hi top?? im a shooting guard...any recomendations??
Hey nightwing I am a short guard which shoe and I mostly play indoors but sometimes have to play outdoors but hardly ever. Which shoe would be better for me, the Hyperdunk 2012's or the KD V? Thanks :)
I really want the cp3's like I'm only 5'2 I'm super quick mad super fast but the lack of heel lock down effect you a lot? and if it does should I get my real size instead of going half a size over
I'm a 5'6/5'7 120 lb combo guard. Due to the shape and arch of my foot, Nikes/Jordans usually don't work for me unless they have unbelievable padding; however, when they do have that cushion, they are usually heavy on the feet which is undesirable for a guard. I would appreciate suggestions because from watching many of your videos, you seem like quite the expert. Thanks
thank you so much for your review every time. i always wait for your review before actually purchasing one. a little surprised to see 9 elite on top on x on forward category. actually anxiously waiting for my id x... hopefully it would work fine for a guard guy as well... also wants to recommend people to try cp3. you mentioned about poor heel lockdown but that would not affect the overall satisfaction? big up from japan and rest well. we need another strong performance review year...
great video! keep up the good work, man! amazing in detail video. keep it up! and get that hand checked.. you just sold me the CP3.VI, i was about to go for the KD V's ( I already own the IV's, and besides the pinching, the fit is actually great), but now I finally made a decision keep it up!
Really nice vid dude. I hear you are the guru of performance review on the interwebs and i totally agree. Keep it going!! Bballers around the world get a lot of help from your sharing of knowledge. Peace
hey Nightwing i have wide ass feet and i love to play basketball. im having trouble finding a good pair of basketball shoes that run wide i really like the anatomix but they run pretty narrow. also i have had problems with my feet for a few years now so i need a shoe with good support. do you have any recommendations. I know its a lot to ask but i would really really appreciate it.
hey nightwing wat do u think about the nike dual fusion bb? do you think that the two types of density foam cushioning will be similar to the micro g spine bionic?
Under Armour def. makes really great foam cushy shoes! i really appreciate your time and quality in your vids, your right, there the best looking Kobe's IMHO, the outrigger is top notch, zoom is really responsive but damn the lockdown sometimes kills the fore part of my top foot!
I'm saving up for my CP3 VI's :) and thanks a lot for your hard work. it helped me tons and i truly admire the passion that you have for shoes! Keep makin good vids!
Who's watching this in 2018?
Rafael Nava me
17:21 hurts my eyes as a sneakerhead, but i understand its purpose
south beach color way is played out

XxBLKMAMBAxX he meant when he bent the shoe in like that..
TWEfilms i see you what you mean bro
Dude, Thank YOU for all these reviews. And don't worry, take care of your wrist, we'll definitely still be here giving you support, brother! Not too many people do what you do and you have developed quite a community on TH-cam and the internet in general. Keep up the great work!
Im not mad, just asking if there was an issue with me liking a number of kicks even if they arent targeted toward my specific position on the floor.
ur the only shoe reviewer that shows on court action. Personally, I think that's what people wanna see. Keep it up man!
No man thankyou! Defintely shedding light on the elements we all as players need to play our type of game. Whether its speed, traction or cushioning you cover everything and it is very much appreciated as you can see from your views or subscribers. Thanks alot
i appretiatie you making these videos. you're the only person that i can find that's non biased and knows what they're talking about when it comes to performance shoes. heal fast man
"which is like running on bricks" hahahah man cracked up me on that one. always love the honesty and straightforwardness
thanks for the video mate, you're so comprehensive with each shoe and very clear about what each shoe presents. i have absolutely no idea how people can still be asking questions like if the hyperposite is good at a guard position in comments section when you just said they'd be great for a C.
LMFAO Mr. Nightwing @ 5:13 "alot people obviously.....don't understand what a review is" xD Great video as well as the organization that you put into it. I hope the Kobe 8 will be on 2013. Thanks
The video looked long, but when i started watching i couldn't stop! The time went by hella fast! Love the vids!
Great year with lots of very helpful reviews! You might not getting any younger (as you said) but you're getting wiser! I wish you to stay strong, good luck with the hand and speedy recovery!
where can you find the li-ning turning points. i wanna try them out but cant seem to find them on any site
Awesome reviews bro, covers all the subject areas, nice and detailed. You also distinguish between actual performance review and your personal preferences which not many people do properly. Shout out from the UK
Which shoe are you asking about
Where can u get the shoes at 11:12?
The air jordan xx8 has a strange traction pattern. Do you think the it will last in out door play?
I'm sad to see the Kobe 7 on your "worst of the year" mentions, though I understand where you're coming from with your problems (these things are subjective, after all). The Kobe 7 Elite (maybe there is a significant difference between the Elite and regular versions, not sure) has been my go-to hoops sneaker for the past 8 months.

Would you say the KD 4 or Kobe 7 is better? I have KD 4s and love them and am getting Kobe 7s, do I have something to look forward to, or will it be a step back?
does a sprint frame or heel cup help support your ankle and heel?
do you go by nightwing cuz youre a fan of the comic book character? just curious.
Great vid bro. You have the best videos on youtube and the time you put in really shows. Really appreciate it. Keep it up!
At 6:20 r u just talking about that Moddle or just the whole kobe shoes
which shoe would you prefer? the fly wade 2s or the cp3 ones in the video? also sorry to hear about the injury champ. hope it all goes well.
Hey nightwing, i'm just wondering where you rank the Kobe 8's for gaurd shoes. I'v seen your review on the Kobe8 and im deciding weither to buy the CP3's or Kobe8's. Also keep up the good work!
Do you think the hyperposite will work well in the guard position?

I am interested to know the comparison between the cp3.6 vs the kobe 8? Which one has the better performance for guard.
Hyperdunk 2012 or CP3 VI for guard ? How do they compare against each other ?
Thanks for working it nightwing! You were my "go-to" channel for buying ball kicks!
I like many shoes, is there a problem with that?
If I am a quick point guard do you think that the KD 5's well be a good pick?
Awesome video nightwing, whenever i need a performance review on a certain sneaker i go to your videos to get the review. By the way, didnt u say the CP3 .VI lacks ankle support?
hey nightwing my season is coming up and I have a choice between the cp3 6 or the kobe 8. which one should I get???
I stated in the video very clearly that there is a cut off date and the Kobe 8 were release well after the cut off date. Please listen to what is said in the videos before asking questions that are already covered.
what do you think the adipower howard be placed at if they were for the any man spot just woudering
I said they lacked heel lockdown. Forefoot fit I loved, you can double check the review if you'd like. Just bc I love a shoe doesnt mean I wont critique it.
Really enjoy your videos, is the air Jordan project finished??
What was the retro at the beginning called?
nightwing what do you think of aero flights? planning to get a pair.
Good job on the reviews. I can really tell you know your stuff.

Sick video! love the shoes. I'm 6'4" and about 150 and play Shooting Guard. I was just wondering if the chris paul VI's would be good for me
I'm quick, small PG, and i dont't know which sneaker will be better. Kobe VI, Kobe IV or CP3.VI?
Appreciate it. I use a Nikon J1 and just a regular lamp with florescent lighting.
Hey, when do you think your 2013 List wi8ll be finished?
thanks for all the vids nightwing, i appreciate that u've taken the time to show which shoes perform best
really?! I want ankle protection shoes... What do you think about the UA Spine Bionic? Are they also ankle protected?
Where do you buy your sneakers nightwing?
Im confused about the kobe 8's. So, a different colorway means a different shoe?
if you had to choose between the KD 5 or the Rose 3 for on-court performance, which one would you pick?
I know you put the KD V's as an any man sneaker, but which is better for the 4, the kd V's or the melo m8 advance?
Are the Li-Ning sneakers true to size? I had the Li-Ning BD Dooms and they were half size small.
Hey nightwing! I have a question for you! My flint 13s are becoming unglued in the middle under where your foot is but all the edges are fine. Its jut a spot under my foot where its separating. Any suggestions?
Nightwing, Just found your site and videos. Thanks for sharing your honest experienced-based reviews and thoughts. May I ask what camera and lights you use? Everything looks great bro.

Hey nightwing. Would Micro G foam be beneficial for someone who suffers shin splints?

Hey I have always worn high tops but I am planning on getting the cp3.vi do you think theres a chance of rolling my ankle? I'm a 1 btw
I'm a 3 and I know you said the torch is for gaurds but do you think they would still be good for me I'm 6'3" 160 and 16 years old?
Another great vid man. Thanks for another season helping me choose which shoes to play well on court
Straight up I appreciate everything you have done. Your videos keep on getting better and better, and so does your site. You deserve all the support and recognition you have received thus far. "who the **** says thus?" - Rez

Night wing please reply back I'm debating on gettin cp3 6 or kd5 which one would you pick also you should do vs videos!
