TSL Elevation snowshoes, red

TSL Elevation snowshoes

You can rely on the TSL 305/325/345 ELEVATION snowshoes on hard snow thanks to the front claw, six spikes, and 3D frame design. Walking comfort is ensured by the hourglass shape, a two-component ankle strap, and an adjustable heel lift. Fast and comfortable fastening is enabled by tightening the toe strap with a single pull. The width can also be adjusted for snowboard boots, as can the length, and it's really simple - the buckles are equipped with a lock and ratchet that can be easily operated with one hand.

• 3D FRAME DESIGN – a single-piece frame molded from high-quality plastics "Made in French Alps". It includes 6 stainless steel spikes that can be replaced. Three levels of contact with the snow ensure full functionality of the snowshoes regardless of snow type and provide confidence on traverses. On hard snow and ice, only the sharp spikes are in contact, but when walking on wind-blown snow, the embossed crossbars start to engage, and the snowshoes do not slip. In soft snow, the entire surface of the snowshoe engages, including the curved edge, preventing sinking or slipping.
• STRAP TIGHTENING – the toe area features a classic binding where tightening is done with a single pull of the textile strap.
• COMFORT STRAP – the ankle strap is designed to optimize pressure on the instep, increasing comfort and support during walking. The strap is made of softer and harder material to be both comfortable and firm.
• Heel lift/heel lock – possibility to use heel lifts during ascents or to lock the binding with its help.
• Practical cover – snowshoes come with a textile cover suitable for transport, storage, and protecting your other gear from cuts by the spikes or teeth of the snowshoes.
• Front claw – with every step, a front claw with three stainless steel spikes extends at the toe, preventing slips and wasted energy.
• Hourglass shape – thanks to the ergonomic shape, the snowshoes fit together when walking side-by-side, eliminating the need to walk wide-legged or the risk of stepping on the other snowshoe.
• Binding size adjustment with lock – it is fast, secure, and prevents the binding from shifting during walking.
• Binding width adjustment – allows the use of snowshoes with footwear of various widths or snowboard boots.
• Ankle strap tightening and loosening – can be easily done with one hand using a ratchet.
• Shock absorber – located under the heel, it eliminates unpleasant impact noise.

Invest in snowshoes that will last a really long time

You're not buying TSL snowshoes for 2 or 3 seasons, but for many demanding seasons. They are even used in rental shops for 10 to 15 years! Their high durability is due to the quality of manufacturing, which takes place in the French Alps, about an hour's drive from Chamonix. Manufacturing is in-house, and among other things, they also produce components for the automotive industry and for AIRBUS aircraft manufacturers.

Honest materials and local sustainable production and service

The plastic granulate comes from the Netherlands and is also used for making ski boots. Another guarantee of long life is the availability of spare parts for 20 years. Every part of the snowshoe can be unscrewed and replaced. Nothing is pressed, as that would complicate servicing. TSL snowshoes are assembled again in our own production facility in Annecy, which is about 30 minutes from the molding plant. Local employees work here in a friendly atmosphere, some for over 20 years.
