Can I screw in rugby studs into a pair of soccer boots?
1.) Buy Adidas soccer cleats and Canterbury rugby studs separately. 2.) Remove the studs from the Adidas soccer cleats and screw in the Canterbury rugby studs in them. ** The rugby boots in the Canterbury store are too expensive, so I was opting to get them from Adidas. However, Adidas doesn't sell rugby boots, so I thought I could get soccer cleats from Adidas and screw in rugby studs. Also, there isn't a KooGa store or any other store that sells rugby boots other than Canterbury here in Malaysia. Just Canterbury, whose boots are too expensive.
Can my son use rugby boots for his soccer game?
k ..so i just googled the images of soccer cleats and rugby boots, and they look the same. although ....they might be designed differently and work differently
Plastic or Metal studs on soccer boots?
I'd suggest you go with the plastic studs. Metal studs can become sharp and cause injury. Also the plastic studs will have a little more give in them, ideal for the harder surfaces as well as the wet. Finally, the metal studs are prone to rusting after a while, which not only looks bad, but can lead to the studs corroding and ruining the thread of the stud. http://www.Footy-Boots.com
Do your football (soccer for Americans) boots (cleats) affect your performance?
100% yes! There is no arguing that more comfortable and well shaped boots help you play at your full potential. With good boots you will:Run FasterChange direction betterControl the ball better while receiving passes and dribbling.Shoot betterAlthough, you will have to practice your shooting and ball control with new boots to get it just right, but once you get used to them, you will definitely perform at your best.I have first hand experience of how bad cleats can negatively affect your performance. I used to wear Nike Mercurial Vapour X and I absolutely loved it. However, with 2 years of use they wore off and I could no longer play with them.My next were from Adidas. These:And My God were they bad! I got them on sale online. They seemed okay at first and the running and direction changing were both manageable but I just couldn’t control the f***ing ball! The shoes were so smooth, that a ball coming at you with velocity and spin would just be impossible to get proper hold on! And, I slowly did get used to controlling short passes and dribbling but my problem with longer, aerial passes never went away. The Nike boots had a fair bit of roughness and microbumps all over the surface which allowed you to get high velocity passes under control with minimum fuss and maintain a fair grip while dribbling while these made it even harder than playing barefoot.Another thing that affects a player, although not at an amateur level, is the placement and length of the studs. Longer studs work better on softer/wetter grounds. Shorter/medium ones work for dry/moderately moist/harder pitches.My advice would be to never buy online unless you have looked at the cleat models physically and tried wearing them out at least once to get the feel. Always go to a showroom of the respective brand to buy your shoes!P.S.- This is not an attack on Adidas or an endorsement for Nike. Both make great cleats but I have had a bad experience with a bad model of Adidas boots. It doesn’t in anyway mean that they make bad cleats, neither does it in anyway mean Nike makes all good cleats.
Which football boot is better, Adidas, Nike or Puma?
‘What football boots should I buy?’.It’s a question that has been on the forefront of every footballer’s lips since the beginning of time.Firstly, it’s all subjective – and don’t believe what people say – the right football boot CAN make you play better.We all want to be able to play like our favourite players – and wear their boots no doubt. This means everyone’s tastes will be different and you may find yourself gravitating towards a pair just because Messi or Ronaldo has them.But before even deciding on a pair of boots, there’s a few things you need to consider. Here’s our guide to choosing the perfect football boot.Visit: Blackout football boots
What type of soccer cleats are best SG, FG, or HG?
I honestly think that firm ground moulded studs are the best.. they are suitable for all kinds of surfaces and usually have a longer stud at the heels which are much better for traction the best moulded stud boots out there are adidas f10, f30 or f50 or nike mercurial vapour FG we don't like to use screw in aluminium studs as they are too dangerous for sliding tackles.. I have often seen guys get their shins ripped open from a sharp stud ( they wear down sharp when you walk on concrete) so most people I know wear the moulded ones...
Soccer cleats or football cleats for rugby?
If you play back at the high school level a pair of soccer boots will do just fine. In fact some rugby players prefer the soccer-style molded blades, particularly on a hard, dry pitch. You aren't going to be doing much rucking (or any scrumming) so specialized rugby boots aren't critical. That said, if you get serious about the sport you might want to consider getting a pair of six-studded rugby boots for use on muddy pitches. Many of the more serious players bring two or three pairs of boots to a game, and then select the pair which is most appropriate for the conditions of the day. American football boots are illegal in rugby -- the single stud you find directly under the toe is forbidden. They are acceptable if that single stud in removeable.
Could I use football cleats to play soccer?
Most recreational and club leagues do not allow American Football cleats to be used, largely because they generally have studs pretty far forward on the toe. When your kick makes contact with someone, those studs can be pretty dang painful and could injure someone. This is the main reason that most referees start the game by having the players put the heel of one foot down on the ground and angle their foot up. The main things they are looking for is that there are not studs on the toe and that the studs themselves are an acceptable material (most recreational or youth leagues do not allow metal, only rubber or plastic studs).
What is the physics behind designing a soccer boot?
Newton's Third Law states, "For every action force there is a simultaneous reaction force that is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction." This means that when walking or running your shoe exerts horizontal backwards force on the floor and the floor exerts a horizontal forward force on your shoe. Because soccer shoes have studs on the soles there is much more friction between soccer shoes and say tennis shoes. This friction allows soccer players to make sharp turns without falling on the slippery grass surface. In my soccer leagues many soccer players where soccer shoes with plastic or rubber studs because the fields that we play on are dry and not too soft (more friction than when wet). The boots in the image to the right have metal studs. Many professional players use boots with metal studs because the playing surfaces in such stadiums as Old Trafford or the Camp Nou are so soft and slick (watered immediately prior to soccer games and at half-time). This means that there is more friction required to prevent slips and allow for sharp movements.A soccer player that has a mass of 64.57kg (including his training apparel and soccer shoes) has a coefficient of friction with grass of 0.35. What is the kinetic friction between the soccer shoes and the grass?Source- http://physicsbehindfutbol.weebl...
