Description
The world’s first and best flexible snowshoe gives superior agility on snow. Kick-steps up the steepest fall line, run, move backwards and sideways with ease.
Built to handle the toughest conditions, state of the art materials, intentional ‘over-engineering’ and stringent quality standards mean Yowies never give up.
Deck material is injection moulded from a subzero engineering grade copolymer thermoplastic. This chemical combination of two plastics gives physical benefits and properties of each. Extremely lightweight, it is tougher and more durable than the base material of skis or snow boards.
Hexagon patterned base provides excellent grip in all directions. On soft to firm snows, the hexagons work on a similar principle to the wax-less Fischer scale on cross country skis. The hexagon pattern captures the snow, which is then able to be compressed in the shallow depth when the platform is stepped upon. Any side slip has to shear the captured snow of the entire surface area of the deck.
Complement the hexagons by gripping ice. The cleats are of high tensile marine grade aluminium with very open internal angles allowing ice to drop out. The black plastic inserts provide a non stick surface along the bottom of the cleats. The 5083 high tensile marine grade aluminium is harder wearing and more difficult to bend than standard grades of aluminium, also more corrosion resistant.
The unique binding system securely and comfortably holds the boot. Inner straps prevent side movement of the boot on the deck. Outer straps prevent forward and backward movement, and stops the boot lifting away from the deck. This feature provides for an unparalleled stability for your boot on the flexible snowshoe. Quick and easy adjustment, ideal for families, groups or rental use. An impact resistant nylon buckle-loop combination is used on the outer ankle, toe and heel straps. Secure, comfortable and easy to use, the ice/water repellent hook and loop fastener tape (Velcro) is used to hold the inner harness in place. Elastomer O-rings and end tips are used to stow excess webbing.
