ABSTRACT:
A snowshoe (1) has a peripheral frame (2). A deck (4) extends across an interior of the peripheral frame and supports a binding (5) for retaining the boot of the user. The snowshoe has horizontal surfaces for supporting the snowshoe and the user on top of the snow and downward depending on traction members (3a, 3b, 50a, 50b) for engaging the snow to facilitate walking without slipping. The traction members are preferably disposed vertically and extend downward below a horizontal plane (H) of the deck. The traction members have regions of reduced height (100, 100a, 100b, 100c, 100d, 100e, 100f) relative to a forward portion (7a) of the traction members or the rearward portion (7c) of the traction members in a central zone (B) aligned with the region which receives and holds the user's boot (6).
