Traveling the trail is always fun, but breaking trail--now that's a whole new adventure. When you're heading out for a day of snowshoeing in the backcountry, turn to the comfortable and high-performing Tubbs Flex Alp Snowshoe to get you through challenging and icy terrain. Offering flexibility and unrelenting grip in variable conditions, the Flex Alp now features a new ActiveFit 2. 0 binding. The ActiveFit binding uses a TPU cinch strap to keep your foot in place, ensuring an increase in comfort and ease of use, and a decrease in friction and ice build-up. It also releases with a single pull, and features an easy heel buckle that can be adjusted and secured with one hand. That's what's new in the Flex Alp--what's not new was so darn trusted that Tubbs decided to keep it around for another season. That includes the Viper 2. 0 toe crampon, whose jagged tooth construction digs into snow and ice when you're making your way up steep hills. Speaking of steep hills, the Flex Alp also has a 19-degree heel riser to reduce muscle strain when the mountain refuses to mellow out, while 3D-curved traction rails follow the shape of the snowshoe for maximum sidehill traction even in hardpacked and icy surfaces. Meanwhile, the Flex Tail and Torsion Deck allow for a flexible feel both vertically and horizontally, allowing the snowshoe to not only adjust to the variable underfoot conditions you'll find far off the beaten path, but also to let your foot follow through its stride naturally for less stress on joints and muscles.
