Regardless of what wintry terrain lies between were you've been and where you're going, the women's Lightning Ascent snowshoe will get you there. This snowshoe is the top choice of anyone with a narrow gait, or those seeking the lightest possible alternative in MSR's most aggressive snowshoe. The Women's 360ø Traction frames were designed in conjunction with a renowned expert in athletic biomechanics, resulting in a lower-profile frame that saves weight and improves agility with narrow gaits. Paired with PosiLock AT bindings to create the most secure attachment, new, aggressive Torsion2 crampons, and the easily engaged Ergo Televators, they'll back you up with every step.
- Narrow frames are ideal for women, those with a narrow gait, or anyone seeking the lightest snowshoe possible.
- 360ø Traction frames deliver edge-to-edge grip, and split teeth of Torsion2 crampons better distribute forces and offer more continuous contact?delivering unmatched traction on any terrain, in any conditions.
- Two-piece, independently conforming PosiLock AT bindings create our most secure, freeze-resistant attachment, regardless of footwear.
- Ergo Televators reduce fatigue and increase traction on the steeps with an ergonomic design that engages with a simply flick of a pole grip.
- Add-on Modular Flotation tails allow you the maneuverability of a smaller, primary snowshoe with the added, on-demand flotation of optional, 5-inch (13-cm) tails. (Campmor style # 71507)
