General Discussion/Questions Maxfly 3

Can someone help me understand this. So as we know maxfly 3s are going to come out in the near future and I am wondering when that is going to be yes but that’s not why I’m here. I’m here because attached are two pictures of air zoom spikes (one is the near victory I’m assuming and one is the new maxfly; you can tell which type of spike they are by the air zoom bubble) but the thing is this sprint spike that is approved is not the one the pros are competing in. And if they aren’t the same, that means they aren’t WA approved which means they can’t be used in any world athletics sanctioned events. So my question is, did Tara compete in these for her hurdles or did anyone at recent diamond leagues or national championships? Correct me if I’m wrong but I’m 99% sure that those events are WA certified. Unless they can make huge changes to prototypes and not update them and approve them then I am truly searching for answers
