side hillin
By S Turner
Ranked #658 - Backcountry Snowboarding
December 15, 2006
The most noticeable advantage of these shoes is on the side hill. The crampon style limits the heel from slipping out. Which is a big problem with Tubbs and other tube style frames. The heel elevators are a must on steep terrain. It makes a steep slope more like stairs than a ski run, enabling you to hike farther into the backcountry. Had mine two seasons and love them!
