Designed for comfort, durability, flotation, and stability on winter trails, the 10 Series snowshoe from Atlas features quiet flexible Nytex decking, sure-gripping tempered steel traction, and easy-to use Wrapp comfort bindings. Ideal for recreational use, the 10 Series boasts unique Atlas performance innovations including Spring-Loaded Suspension (SLS) and proprietary V-frames. SLS provides incredible maneuverability for a more natural gait, and the 6061 aluminum V-Frame is lightweight and efficient over the snow. The 10 Series' Wrapp Comfort binding offers easy entry with positive toe location and eliminates pressure points with insulating EVA padding. Super easy-to-use--a single pull on the binding handle secures the Uniloop strap around instep, toe, and heel. Stride with confidence, the tempered steel All-Trac toe crampon and Traverse Trac rails add side hill control and a sure grip. Backed by a limited lifetime warranty, the 10 Series is a excellent choice for hikers who would like to log comfortable hours on the winter trails.

Features:

  • Spring-Loaded Suspension: Atlas's patented Spring-Loaded Suspension (SLS) both keeps the snowshoe close underfoot for easy maneuvering and suspends your foot so that it can move freely with its intended articulation. The suspension absorbs impact and lets your foot flex naturally side-to-side for a comfortable, stable position on traverses and uneven terrain. SLS enhances traction control too, as the flex provides deeper crampon penetration into the slope, especially on steep or off-angle terrain.
  • V-Frames: Proprietary Atlas V-Frames are the key to an efficient, natural stride. The sturdy aluminum V shape tracks straight in deep snow, and the tapered tail pulls less snow as you step forward, saving your energy. The turned-up tail of the V-frame rolls easily into each step for a natural gait. Built with lightweight, durable 6000- and 7000-series aluminum, the V-frames are used on all Atlas snowshoes.
  • Nytex: Flexible Nytex decking is forgiving and quiet when hiking in the cold, providing durability without the weight.
  • Wrapp Comfort Binding: Built on the renowned fit and arch support of the Wrapp platform, the new Wrapp Comfort binding offers easy entry with positive toe location and eliminates pressure points with warm EVA padding. Atlas routed the Uniloop strap to reduce friction, so that one pull on the binding handle will secure the entire binding around your instep, toe, and heel. A portable handle holder clips excess strap out of the way, and the release loop opens both instep buckles with one pull. Molded around men's- and women's-specific lasts, the Wrapp Comfort marks a new standard in Trail Walking snowshoe design.
  • All-Trac Toe Crampon: The time-tested geometry of the Atlas All-Trac toe crampon provides traction in all directions. Wider traction tabs on the sides and corners complement sharp front and rear points for confident hiking.
  • Traverse Trac Rails: The sharp ridges of the snowshoe's side rails augment the downhill function of the heel cleat, running parallel to the snowshoe frame for solid footing, even on firm side hill terrain.
