The Hardrock offers the most protection, stability, and traction of any of the Velocity models. Named after the Hardrock 100 in southwestern Colorado , it is designed for running over rough, rocky terrain. However, unlike previous attempts to achieve this level of protection and stability, the Hardrock is agile, flexible, and light, which makes it versatile for everything from short and fast running, to long, hard hiking.
