Awaiting the new SCOTT T2 tri shoe

I had just packed my bike and was getting ready to catch my ride to the Fribourg railway station, as I stumbled onto Pascal Ducrot, Scott-Sport’s vice-CEO, a former pro-rider - and still very, very fast, so I’m told. Pascal displayed a keen intrest in the Superman Project and – surprisingly, given his cycling background – seemed particularly concerned about the running part. “What shoes are you taking with you?”, he wants to know. “The Makani, huh? That is a great shoe. Fast and supportive. But we’re also expecting a great deal from our new T2 racing shoe which incorporates some really revolutionary innovations. The idea was to build a danymic running shoe that really favors and induces forward motions. The feedback that we’ve received form our test runners so far is quite spectacular. They say that you can really feel the forward propulsion, even when you’re just walking. You really should tri this new T2, as soon as it becomes available. But that won’t be before mid-February, I guess …” In the mean time, could I get a press-kit, maybe, so that I could already write about this phenomenon? “I’d rather you didn’t”, Pascal replies. The shoe is ready, but now we’re having some scientific tests done in the States. I would like to back up our story with science and facts before we release the shoe, as opposed to ‘selling baked air’ and just unfounded hype beforehand, you understand. But when we get the results, you’ll be the first to know about it and to test-drive this shoe …”
