Description

Tough showshoes for tough conditions.

We can't all live in powder heavens like Utah (sorry, folks), so Tubbs created the Men's Flex Alp Snowshoe for those whose excursions tend to be in hard-packed or icy conditions. This 2010 Outside Magazine Gear of the Year Award winner features 3D Curved Traction rails that ensure superior side-hill grip; double them up with the super-aggressive Viper 2.0 rail crampons, and you get unbeatable traction in icy, hard-packed, steep, and just plain ugly conditions.
  • Flex Tail technology allows the snowshoe to roll more naturally underfoot from heel-strike to toe-off
  • Torsion Deck design allows torsional articulation throughout the body of the snowshoe, maximizing comfort and traction on uneven terrain or variable snow conditions
  • ActiveLift 19-degree heel lift makes steep ascents easier by lifting your heel to reduce calf fatigue and Achilles strain on steep ascents
  • Rotating Toe Cord enables the tail of the snowshoe to drop in order to shed snow and make every step easier

Do they make extenders for these to use in powder?

No, they do not. Tubbs does not offer extenders on there snowshoes. The flex design is made to excel in packed snow and the other design is the traditional design which is made for a variety of snow conditions. This particular model is made to take on steep icy terrain. You might check out a tradition design from tubbs if your going to be in the deep stuff. The other option, if you like this one, is to go with the XL model.

I like how light these are to pack along during the winter. The downside is that I'm a little heavy for them, at 5'9"/210 lbs, and add another 25 lbs of backpack and I'm well over the 190lb limit of the shoes. I would definately recomend not exceeding that limit by much. It would be nice if they would add 2" to the front and 1" to the width of these.

The only snowshoes I have ever owned - I feel this was a fine purchase! I'm 5'11" at 180 lbs and these worked out very well, keeping me afloat, with easy maneuverability, on sun-crusted snow, better than a foot deep, with ease. I can't be sure of fresh powder yet but I can't wait to give them a try. They have been worn with both Solomon trail runners and Kayland hiking boots, both incompatible for cramp-ons, both worked out very well. The ease of steep ascension is particularly noted and more fun than I expected. Wish I was in deep powder at this moment!

Winner of the Outside Magazine 'Gear of the Year' Award, the FLEX ALP is designed to tackle extreme Backcountry terrain. With micro-serrated 3D-Curved Traction Rails and the ActiveLift 19 degree heel lift, the FLEX ALP devours steep, icy terrain, and the new, streamlined deck shape enhances maneuverability in tight situations.
