Tubbs Flex Alp Snowshoe Review
The Tubbs Flex Alp snowshoe intrigued us a great deal from the moment we first received news of its arrival into the snowshoe market. The Tubbs Flex series are lightweight (4.4 lbs), compact (the 8″ x 24″ design makes for easy storage), highly functional in all types of terrain, and extremely easy to use.
Visiting my parents’ house for the holidays provided me with my first opportunity to test out these shoes. My father and I went out in single digit temps to a local favorite for cross country skiers, Nelson Lake which is located in Batavia, Illinois. From the tracks in the snow it was evident skiers, hikers and other snowshoers had been out before us. My father had on Atlas BC24 snowshoes and I wore the Tubbs Flex Alp snowshoe.
