Summary

Grippy.

Pros

  • Grippy
  • Light
  • Fast binding

Cons

  • A lil loud.

I upgraded to these after a couple years of suffering through the SLS (Slings Lots'o Snow) pivots of my Atlas shoes. It is very nice to leave the snow on the trail instead of flinging it on my back.

The grip of these is amazingly good, and the flex of the deck is appreciated of the steep downhills. The bindings are simple, fast and secure. The heel lift clicks around a little bit, but it never gets in the way and is very appreciated on the extended climbs.

Summary

Awesome snowshoes.

Pros

  • light
  • responsive
  • packable
  • easy to use
  • effective in snow

For starters, I am a 250 lbs man just under 6 feet tall. These things worked awesome. I tried MSRs and I sank like a rock. I have had nothing but great experiences with these shoes. They are light and responsive when shuffling along and somehow they keep me above the snow...great buy.
