The innovative and biomechanical aluminum Fit-Step frame, designed with a slightly upturned, rounded tail, reduces muscular skeletal impact on hip, knee and ankle joints by 10%. * 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. * The Quick Fit binding features a trouble-free, single-pull system for easy adjustment to a wide array of men"s and women"s boot sizes and styles, and features Control Wings to keep the heel centered. * Carbon steel toe and heel crampons feature front and rear braking teeth for a secure grip uphill, downhill and side hill in packed snow conditions. * Lighter weight and narrower waisted, Tubbs women?s frame geometry facilitates a woman?s unique biomechanics. Designed to specifically accommodate a woman?s boot shape and size, Tubbs? women?s bindings eliminate sloppy movement and pressure points.
