Awesome

Got these for my Denali Classic snowshoes and love them. Really great flotation, noticeable difference when compared to the snowshoes without on powder.

Denali is a great snow snowshoe

I replace a pair of snowshoes with the Denali shoes this fall. The bindings are simple, easy to put on and "sure". I felt a little concern about the plastic, though I did replace a set of poly-carb shoes which worked okay but had an inferior binding. My concern seems to have been for not. The shoes seem durable and really light and easy to track. I weigh in at 155 and only use the 4" tails though.

Make sure they fit!!!

I have just received these 8 inch. tails for my evo ascents and they look well made but they DO NOT FIT THE EVO ASCENTS. You need to get the evo tails for the evo snowshoes. They are not a universal fit between the MSR denali snowshoes.

WHAT THE HECK!

Good for general use with my snowshoes, pretty mutch always need them because otherwise they dont have much flotation at all (for me, i weigh 180 lbs). Yesterday, though, I went for a walk in the park on them, and they seemed to not be working so well. When I went to take them off, i discovered that one of the tails had come off, so i backtracked about a mile and then gave up. And yes, Im quite sure i put them on correctly whether you believe me or not.

great addition

I bought these to add to my MSR Evo Ascent snowshoes. Makes trudging through loose powder MUCH better. They snapped on pretty quick and easy. No probs with them yet.
