In short

Runners mostly find it comfortable and cushioned, though opinions differ on how propulsive it is, with some feeling a snappy toe-off and others a fairly traditional ride.

Runners find the Dynablast 5 comfortable, cushioned and stable, and several see it as a worthy successor to the Novablast 3.

Lively and peppy for tempo and interval work; a few found it too stiff and dead.
