She&#39;ll being doing a variety of snowshoeing, but mostly unbroken trails in wilderness areas and backpacking. She&#39;s 5&#39;4&quot; and weighs 130#. Would you recommend this shoe? I didn&#39;t see a women&#39;s version. Is there one? question_138091 Wed, 11 Nov 2009 16:18:00 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/LEKI-Devine-Aergon-XL-Antishock-Trekking-Poles-1-Pair-Womens/LEK0083M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_137816#question_137816 LEKI Devine Aergon XL Antishock Trekking Poles - 1 Pair - Women's<br /><br />Anyone have a pair of these Devines (XL or normal) or any other Leki that can comment on the antishock suspension and whether or not having it always be on is a good thing? Or if you notice a noise when they&#39;re springing? I was asking out on a backpacker website and I think I ran into a bunch of &quot;light is right&quot; duders who just hated the idea of the antishock and so couldn&#39;t comment on any positives of it. question_137816 Tue, 10 Nov 2009 12:17:22 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Tubbs-Couloir-Series-Snowshoe-Womens/TUB0044M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_136367#question_136367 Tubbs Couloir Series Snowshoe - Women's<br /><br />We want to bye snowshoes that fits our snowboard-shoes, what do you recommend ?<br /><br />Thanks question_136367 Wed, 04 Nov 2009 09:30:50 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/MSR-Lightning-Ascent-Snowshoe/CAS0286M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_135698#question_135698 MSR Lightning Ascent Snowshoe<br /><br />How do the Lightning&#39;s and MSR shoes in general handle traversing of hills? I&#39;ve heard that MSR shoes don&#39;t pivot laterally, just fore and aft. If that&#39;s true are the Atlas&#39; any better? question_135698 Sat, 31 Oct 2009 21:39:31 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Black-Diamond-Whippet-Self-Arrest-Ski-Pole/BLD1150M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_134953#question_134953 Black Diamond Whippet Self-Arrest Ski Pole<br /><br />OK I guess BD doesn&#39;t make the Whippet in a 3 piece pole like the Expeditions. I like the Expeditions because i snowboard and they&#39;re small enough to fit inside my pack or strap to the outside without towering above my head.<br /><br />Can i chop the top half of a whippet down to a better size and insert the bottom two pieces of the Expeditions or will the diameter just not match up?<br /><br />Thanks. I realize this question seems nuts if you&#39;re a skiier.<br /><br />If you look at Mr Lightcap&#39;s picture below (JJ&#39;s post) it looks like a 3-piece whippet. question_134953 Tue, 27 Oct 2009 20:30:12 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/MSR-Lightning-Snowshoe/CAS0335M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_134653#question_134653 MSR Lightning Snowshoe<br /><br />Write your question here...My man has a size 15 foot.

I don&#39;t really know what snow conditions i will be in but i assume that there will be some deeper powder, which seems to be the only issue with these shoes. Never been through a winter here so not sure what to expect here, i plan to be mostly in the Beartooth-Absaroka mts and Yellowstone. From all the reviews ive read, in any conditions other than deep powder, these shoes are unrivaled. For now, i only want one pair of shoes. Im 6 ft 3 in and 225 lb with out gear. Are the 30&#39;s the right shoes for me? question_132509 Fri, 16 Oct 2009 08:21:36 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/MSR-Lightning-Ascent-Snowshoe-Womens/CAS0287M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_132139#question_132139 MSR Lightning Ascent Snowshoe - Women's<br /><br />I had been renting MSR&#39;s all last winter, so I purchased the MSR Women&#39;s 22&quot; Lightning Ascent Snowshoes toward the end of the season. Long story short, they both are for the left foot, not left and right. That&#39;s why I got such a good price. I love the fit, the traction, and even how easy they slip on and off. My questions is: Is there a way to get just the bindings for the right foot if I should want to do so in the future? Or, is there a way to just get one right snowshoe instead of the pair? Thanks! question_132139 Wed, 14 Oct 2009 21:26:36 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Tubbs-Mountaineer-Series-Snowshoe-Womens/TUB0043M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_131910#question_131910 Tubbs Mountaineer Series Snowshoe - Women's<br /><br />Please advise my about what size i need to buy. My shoe size is 7.<br />Thanks in advance.<br />Regards,<br />Bodil Helwig Jensen question_131910 Wed, 14 Oct 2009 09:12:35 GMT
