Tubbs Xplore

Yes, the Xplore is specifically designed for beginners. The intuitive binding system and straightforward frame design make them easy to put on and use without needing prior experience.

These are designed for standard trail walking. They perform best on packed snow trails rather than deep, ungroomed backcountry powder or steep, icy mountain terrain.

The Xplore is rated for users weighing between 80 and 120 lbs. It is important to factor in the weight of your winter clothing and any gear you might be carrying in a backpack, as this adds to your total weight on the snow.

The Fit-Step frame features an upturned tail that helps reduce the impact on your hips, knees, and ankles. It is designed to make your stride feel more natural and less fatiguing during longer walks.

The Quickpull binding is designed for simplicity and ease of use. It cinches down quickly to keep your boot secure and unlocks easily, which is helpful when you are wearing gloves in cold conditions.
