TOUGH & FAST
I beat my first pair of the Atlas Race mercilessly for 4 years before I finally needed a new pair. I still use my old ones as trainers, but the decking took a beating from rocks/roots and running on terrain I had no biz taking SS on.
I've tried nearly all of the racing/running snowshoes available and these are the lightest and most durable snowshoes available.

Light & Easy On/Off
I'm a trail runner, thought I would try snowshoe race. I have an older pair of snowshoes that just would not work so purchased these. What a blast, easy on/off, light weight. Did a 10k in Sivlerthorne, Co. and they worked great. Lots of elevation gain and moderate to some deep snow. 5'8" @ 160 and did not sink in deep enough to stop a good pace.
Very light, but rigid. Very easy to straps on the boots and easy to come out.
