Tubbs FLEX TRK 22 Women's Snowshoe Starter Kit

Product Highlights

New for 2009! The Tubbs FLEX TRK 22 Women’s Snowshoe Starter Kit has everything a woman needs to get started in the growing sport of snowshoeing. The kit includes a pair of FLEX TRK 22 Women’s snowshoes, a pair adjustable aluminum snowshoe poles and a pair of protective gaiters.

Ideal for first-time users, value-conscious snowshoers or dedicated walkers who don’t want to be stuck inside all winter long, the FLEX TRK 22 Women’s snowshoe delivers excellent traction and integrated shock absorption for trail walking in hard-packed and icy conditions. Tubbs FLEX TRK 22 Women’s snowshoes are suitable for all weights in packed snow. NOTE: In powdery conditions FLEX TRK 22 Women’s shoes are best used for a maximum weight of 165 lbs (includes gear and user).

Tubbs was the first manufacturer to offer snowshoes designed specifically for women, introducing women's specific bindings in 1998. Anatomic and ergonomic adjustments are made to each binding to provide the female snowshoe enthusiast with the fit, comfort and performance she deserves. Accounting for the fact that, on average, women have a shorter walking stride than men, Tubbs has tapered the tail on women's specific models to be narrower than the tails found on men's snowshoes, allowing the user to maintain a more natural stride.

The FLEX TRK 22 Women’s molded Torsion Deck increases articulation throughout the body of the shoe, allowing it to truly flex with your stride to enhance both traction and maneuverability. The use of "cutaways" and thinner material at either end of the shoes keeps weight to a minimum while maintaining flotation. The unique Tubbs FLEX Tail absorbs the shock of heel strikes, reducing stress on your joints and further enabling you to maintain a natural, comfortable stride. Asymmetric Quick-FLEX bindings provide maximum support for your boot, securely locking the heel in place. The base is adjustable to accommodate varying footwear ranging from Women’s sizes 5-11.

FLEX TRK 22 Women’s snowshoes are outfitted with carbon steel toe crampons and micro-serrated 3D curved Traction Rails. Snow Brakes on the rear of the deck prevent slipping and provide confident downhill traction.

The pair of Tubbs lightweight, 2-part adjustable (105-130 cm), aluminum snowshoe poles lends security and stability on any and all types of terrain. By incorporating arm movements into your snowshoeing activities, you can turn your adventure into a total body fitness workout. The poles also include a powder basket and nylon web straps.

Also included is a pair of water resistant, breathable nylon gaiters. Enjoy your outdoor experience keeping snow and moisture from finding its way into your boots. Stay dry all day long!
