Flotation

FLEX Tail

The ergonomically and biomechanically designed FLEX Tail absorbs shock from heel strike, reducing the amount of stress on your joints and allowing you to snowshoe farther, longer and with less stress on your body.

Torsion Deck

Tubbs’ advanced Torsion Deck™ design adapts to variable snow conditions underfoot. The decks allow torsional articulation throughout the body of the snowshoe, enhancing traction, biomechanics and comfort on uneven terrain.

Articulation

Rotating Toe Cord - Rotation Limiter

Rotating Toe Cord design enables the tail of the snowshoe to drop and snow to shed off the tail, reducing cardio-respiratory strain by 7%. The underfoot pivot point also allows the toe traction teeth to bite deeply into the snow when weighted. A rotation limiter prevents over-rotation and shin bang.

Control

ActiveFLEX Binding

Gender specific, asymmetric ActiveFLEX™ binding featuring patented Control Wings™ provides lightweight control, support, comfort and ease of use. Men’s binding fits up to size 13 boots; women’s size 5- 11.

Traction

Traction Rails

Carbon steel toe crampon, ergonomically placed under foot, maximizes weighted traction and responsiveness while 3D curved Traction Rails ensure superior side-hill grip in hard or icy conditions. Progressive molded Snow Brakes, on the deck as well as the Soft Strike zone, improve weighted traction.

Viper 2.0 Crampon

Viper™ 2.0 carbon steel toe crampon with jagged tooth construction maximizes weighted traction and responsiveness.

Comments about Tubbs Snowshoes Women's FLEX ALP Snowshoe:

Something I always wanted to try as a way to get my very active dogs exhausted in the winter and burn some calories myself. Recently was on a ski trip at Steamboat Springs, CO and bought these for myself and my husband. What a blast! So much more fun than expected. Good on all terrain = tried climbing hills and going through deep powder and it made light work of everything. Was sweating in the end, didn't expect to be such a workout. I recommend these to anyone. Liked the heel lift for climbing hills, and the ease of getting them on and off.
