3. Quick Tip
The type of spikes that come with your shoes may be different
styles or types depending on the events they are intended for.
My spikes are meant for distance events and are typically found
to be black.
This is a
worn down
spike that
should be
replaced.
4. Step 1
Grab your “spike gun” and place it above the
specific spike you wish to change.
5. Step 1- continuation
In the correct picture, the “gun” is locked in place with the top of the spike
that allows for a grip in order to remove it.
In the incorrect picture, the “gun” is not in line with the grip, so therefore the
spike cannot be removed.
7. Step 3:
Continue removing all of the other spikes,
following steps 1 and 2, until your shoe looks like
this. (Repeat for the other shoe)
8. Step 4: (Finished)
This is what the end result of changing your spikes looks
like. They are all sharper and darker in comparison to the
used and old spikes.
9. Side note
As you can see, the spikes are the exact same, but
the bottom spike is more worn down than the top
spike.
