Sarah Rose demonstrated the updated Tubbs Flex Trek recreational snowshoe with QuickFLEX one-step-close binding and Active Lift heel lift at Outdoor Retailer.
The Flex Trek is designed for day hikes and is available in men's (24") and women's (22") models. Tubbs says the Flex Tail design absorbs shock and reduces stress on the joints, Torsion Deck construction articulates on variable snow conditions for better grip and precise feel, and 3D-Curved Traction Rail technology ensures superior side-hill grip in hard-packed or icy conditions. A QuickPull binding cinches easily and unlocks with one buckle push ($149.95).
