ABSTRACT:
A recreational snowshoe and its method of manufacture are disclosed of the type where a single, homogenous, rigid mass is formed by hardening first and second strands of fiberglass roving impregnated with resin woven to define a frame and webbing. The strands are woven between a first series of removable, spaced pins projecting from the peripheral surface of a jig and around the peripheral surface and across the jig. The webbing includes bracing extending between the tip and rear portions of the snowshoe generally parallel to and spaced from the frame of the sides of the central portion of the snowshoe. The tip portion is upturned such that the bracing is elevated from the sides of the frame, with the bracing been drawn toward the plane of the central portion by lateral bracing to provide a cushion effect. Triangular shaped cleats are formed with the frame by initially weaving the strands around a second series of pins spaced vertically below and intermediate the first series of pins to form V-shaped depressions. The jig and woven strands are heated to set the resins, with spacer and indentation bars positioned thereon for creating binding and foot engagement locations.
