Tubbs Frontier Snowshoes

No, the Frontier is designed specifically for packed trails and mellow terrain. While they offer great stability on groomed paths, they lack the surface area and aggressive flotation needed for deep, backcountry powder.

The rotating toe cord allows the tail of the snowshoe to drop away with each step, which helps shed snow and keeps your stride feeling more natural. It essentially prevents the snowshoe from kicking up snow onto your back while you walk.

Yes, the 180™ EZ Binding is designed for simplicity and ease of use on trail walking. While it is very secure for mellow, packed trails, it may not provide the same locked-in feel as more complex, multi-strap systems intended for steep or technical mountaineering.

The aluminum frame features an upturned tail designed to reduce musculoskeletal impact on your hips, knees, and ankles by about 10%. It’s a subtle design choice that makes a noticeable difference during longer walks on packed snow.

These snowshoes are designed to support a user weight capacity between 80 and 250 lbs. This range includes your body weight plus the weight of any gear or packs you might be carrying.
