Interesting idea. Would the ball bearing still work once a bit of mud and grass worked it's way in there? Says it's currently designed for artificial surfaces and women's game. Worth development though.
I highly doubt it.
Not to mention the ball bearing isn't going to spin with how soft these fields are. The whole stud will just go into the surface like it's supposed to.
If the ball bearing actually spun, wouldn't they be kinda slippery? Also, I'm thinking weight would be an issue and nobody would wear them. Most players already play with youth shin guards (or ridiculous minimalistic alternatives) to minimize the size, weight, uncomfortableness... I can't imagine they would choose these studs on the odd chance they prevent an ACL tear...
He mentioned the traction, only 3 studs would be the ball ones
Thanks
