I'm getting snowshoes as a gift for someone who wants to get into snowshoeing and is a big runner. Should I go for these, or more like the Tubbs Venture Series Snowshoe. Are the Atlas ones okay for just walking and hiking as well? I'm not a runner, and I'd be doing this with him sometimes. Thanks!

These snowshoes are really amazing for everything with the exception of backpacking in the snow. They don't do that well with large amounts of weight. Sounds like they'd be perfect for what you're looking for. I would definitely go with these over any of the Tubbs line. Jeez, what a nice person.....I need more friends like you:)Look into the Atlas Elektras too.
