nforcer: DDR perf is somewhere between ITG Excellent and ITG Fantastic, pretty close to exactly in between them actually.

ITG basically uses SM timing windows.

I used to be really picky about the shoes I played DDR in. Now that I don't play as much, I don't really care. Running shoes (trainers, not spikes haha) are usually the best if you're going to play something that's hard for you. They're light, and they're small. If you can handle what you're playing easily, it shouldn't really matter.

Ow, when I play in smaller shoes that I normally wear they do torture on your feet. Sure it seems to hold out on the first few songs, but just like a trap it gets you at the worst time like in the middle of a 10 foot song.

Re: What type of shoes are best for DDR?

Are there shoes out there that have an actual flat bottom with no grooves in it or anything like that? I've noticed how your shoes adds dirt to the tiles no matter how clean they are. Possibly caused by dirt in those grooves, which make the tiles all slippery.

I wonder how such a shoe like that would do in DDR.

Just use a running shoe, like I said. If the pad is dirty, ask an employee for some cleaning fluid and paper towels / cloth. If you dry it thoroughly, the grip is amazing.

Yea because heavy weights on your feet is perfect for Basketball. Fool

I think any shoe your comfortable with is good.

That reminds me. I went to the Sahara Casino when they first got SuperNova. I was so pumped up. It was a brand new machiene, shiny metal pads, and all the fancy new songs. I went to play the first song, and my shoes were like sticking to the metal because it was new and I had way too much traction. It made me sad.

i would love to have that kind of traction, im getting new shoes for itg cause on songs with 24th notes (determinator) and one winged angel that i play, my feet NEED the traction.
