#2) The True Hinge Crampon, Rear Cross-Member, And Crampon Extension Plate ----- Limit The Rotational Torque Placed On The Muscles Of Women's Low Backs, Pelvises, Hips, And Feet, Helping To Combat Pronation, Or Flattening Of The Arches. Also, Because Women Generally Have A Narrower Base Of Support Relative To Pelvis Width, The Design Team Designed The Women's Snowshoes To Limit Upper-Body Sway, Resulting In Improved biomechanics.
#3) Smaller Binding And Crampon ----- Creating A Better Fit, Which Enhances Foot Stability. The Result Is A Snowshoe That Offers Women Greater Comfort, Ease Of Use, And Performance Than Anything That Has Come Before.
