MSR's Snowshoes With Paragon Bindings To Arrive In Stores This Month
MSR announced back in January that they have developed a new set of bindings for their The MSR Lightning Ascent and MSR Revo Ascent snowshoes, that will perform a little better than their previous four strap system. From the press release…
The Paragon snowshoe bindings offer the world’s first single-strap mesh snowshoe binding. This ultralight binding delivers the pinnacle of simplicity, security, durability, and comfort in alpine terrain while also being engineered to be the most intuitive and effective snowshoe binding available to serious winter adventurers. Additionally, in technical terrain, the Lightning Ascent snowshoes have 360 Traction™ Frames providing unrivaled grip—especially on traverses. The Lightning Ascents also allow for add-on Modular Flotation tails, giving you the maneuverability of a smaller, primary snowshoe with the added, on-demand flotation of optional, 5-inch (13-cm) tails. Ballistic-grade decking offers long-lasting durability, and Ergo Televator heel lifts reduces fatigue and backs you up when climbing the steeps.
The Paragon Binding will be standard on the MSR Lightning Ascent Snowshoe (MSRP: $319.95 USD) as well as the Revo Ascent Snowshoe (MSRP: $259.95 USD), offered in both men’s and women’s versions, starting this month!
