MSRLightning Ascent Backcountry & Mountaineering Snowshoes with Paragon Bindings

I'm convinced this is the only snowshoe that actually works
These snowshoes are great. If you're doing any type of serious snowshoeing, such as trail breaking, these are what you want. They are worth the price. I've tried (rented, owned) several pairs of snowshoes of different brands. Lightning Ascent are the only ones that consistently:*Keep you on top of the snow*Don't fall off (Paragon Bindings are GREAT)*Have incredible traction for very steep slopes up and downThe cheaper MSR Evo snowshoes had great traction but awful bindings and terrible flotation. Lightning Ascent are far superior in these aspects, which are pretty important.The only negative is that I got the 30 inch and didn't realize how easy it is to trip with snowshoes that long. Nothing to do with these specifically, just keep in mind larger/longer snowshoes require more careful walking.

Best snow shoes available today IMHO
I haven’t found anything I dislike yet. I picked up the extenders for a backpacking trip this year.
