ARTICA Series Snowshoes by Easton, Go farther with patent-pending ergonomic performance features.
Salt Lake City, Utah, January 2008— ARTICA Series Snowshoes from the leading producer of performance sporting equipment. The patent-pending ergonomic performance features offer energy saving mobility and unsurpassed comfort.
Made from USA-built Easton Alloy, ARTICA snowshoes features two-piece frames that flex and articulate for more comfortable and stable movement over rough terrain. The innovative frame design absorbs the stresses normally transferred to the ankle, knee, and hip.
ARTICA comes in three performance levels with features and sizes to perfectly match your individual activity level. Trail, Hike, and Backcountry models come in three sizes to match the user and the activity. The Trail and Hike models come in contours specially designed for both men and women. The asymmetrical frames curve to accommodate his and her unique strides for natural, more comfortable hiking.
The Virtual Pivot Traction Cam features two independent pivot arms to dig deeper for better footing. This specially designed dual-arm innovation creates a step-leveling virtual third pivot-point so the crampon pivots and articulates to dig deep for improved traction.
ARTICA uses the patent-pending Quick Cinch™ Binding for fast, easy entry and maximum adjustability. The one-handed, pull-and-go design keeps bindings snug for long excursions. ARTICA frames, flexible decking, comfort binding, and energy return heal, work together to absorb torque, shed snow, and conserve energy with every step.
Easton Mountain Products is 100% wind powered. In addition to offsetting 100% of our own electricity with wind power, Easton is sharing our commitment with every customer. Every purchase of an ARTICA snowshoe brings with it one month worth of wind power offsets, in the hope they will use the information on the attached wind power hangtag to sign up to continue their own offset program. ARTICA snowshoes are constructed from 80% recyclable materials. If programs are not available in your area, simply return them to Easton for recycling.
