I thought we were not going so often with snowshoes, as it will make the INOOK also. Not even close. These snowshoes are OK when things are a real winter and I want to go to the bakery 800m. However, once you're finally in the terrain, the shoe is due to the poor pivot just too unstable and I'm not talking yet of deep snow, of crossings or steep sections - simple tip, do not buy, save for one more year and then proper equipment like Tubbs or MSR. Is one's own health certainly conducive ...
