The Trigon is unique in coming in 3 models with 3 densities of EVA
("light," "responsive," OR "durable" cushioning) in the midsole. The
original poster would probably due best with the "durable" Trigon, since
he weighs more than 180 lbs.
I would not recommend the Trigon, however, for a severe under-pronator.
It is not constructed for stability (neutral stability or "motion
control," the former being what he needs). The Trigon is an excellent
choice for a biomechanically efficient runner, who neither over nor
under pronates, and for whom cushioning is pretty much the only
consideration.
