Reengineered to take you higher and deeper than ever before, the new Atlas 12 Series and Elektra 12 Series snowshoes feature their most aggressive traction system yet while maintaining hallmark Atlas durability and comfort. Literally armed to the teeth with new traction - the 12 Series" tenacious, stainless steel Zodiac toe crampon deeply penetrates even the firmest snow, while the weight-activated, StabiLock Rear Traction optimizes weight distribution to its serrated traction elements, for sure footing on the most technical terrain. The men"s and women"s Wrapp Pro bindings feature FlowTape silicone straps that glide through low-friction buckles with a smooth buckle release for easy on-off use. The 7075 aluminum frame is the lightest, strongest tubing available and the variable ReactiV forming lends a stiffer, more responsive flex. To build on a legacy as storied as the 12 Series required us to design a snowshoe equipped to write the next chapter in Mountain Hiking performance.
