Snowshoeing Gear
Posted: Thu Dec 20, 2012 6:03 pm
Hi there everybody,
The name's Andrew, and I'm from Montréal, and I've snowshoeing experience as a scout.
Anyways, I have a few questions about snowshoe gear.
Firstly, I wonder if it would be possible to replace the bindings on a pair of IPL snowshoes? (It's very difficult to try and stretch the rubber binding over a large chunky boot ). Is it worth it? the front of my boot barely fits in the front of the binding.
It's bound to the underside like this:
And finally, I'm also considering getting a new pair of snowshoes, I've found a couple posts on kijiji that I'm skeptical of. Would these 'SnowTrek" snowshoes be any good? http://montreal.kijiji.ca/c-buy-and-sel ... Z419321140
Thank you,
Andrew
