Tubbs Girls' Flex Jr Snowshoe Torsion Deck: Tubbs' advanced Torsion Deck? design adapts to variable snow conditions underfoot. The decks allow torsional articulation throughout the body of the snowshoe, enhancing traction, biomechanics and comfort on uneven terrain. FLEX Jr. Tail: The 17" FLEX Tail? deck maximizes comfort and maneuverability for kids on the go! Rotating Toe Cord - Rotation Limiter: Rotating Toe Cord design enables the tail of the snowshoe to drop and snow to shed off the tail, reducing cardio-respiratory strain by 7%. The underfoot pivot point also allows the toe traction teeth to bite deeply into the snow when weighted. A rotation limiter prevents over-rotation and shin bang. QuickLock Binding: The simple tightening and locking buckle on the QuickLock binding makes getting kids in and out of snowshoes easier than ever and provides all-day stability and control. Traction Rails: Carbon steel toe crampon, ergonomically placed under foot, maximizes weighted traction and responsiveness while 3D curved Traction Rails ensure superior side-hill grip in hard or icy conditions. Progressive molded Snow Brakes, on the deck as well as the Soft Strike zone, improve weighted traction.
