None I bought these very nice looking snowshoes with very very nice crampons because I thought it would be a very nice pair to go out in the deep snow of Norway with a 25 Kg backpack. After half an our climbing one binding fell off. Not good but I had a repair kit with me. After two weeks snowshoe-ing, several of the very sturdy deck-bindings were broken. I was really not satisfied after all. The two other guys with who I made my trip also had Tubbs and they didn''t look very well after all. The crampons are the nicest one I''ve seen untill now but the rest is not that well. It''s a shame for the crampons that they came with such a bad snowshoe. Customer Service I got my money back by saying to the shop that I really want my money back. It''s as simple as that. The importer of Tubbs in The Netherlands never gave me an answer and because it took so long I thin Similar Products Used: Atlas. It''s better because they don''t fall apart. The crampons could be better but never left me in the middle of nowhere. And that''s what''s snowshoes should do. |

I just bought a pair of Peak 30s and have only used them once in a 4 mile hike. The innovative heel strap is easy to use, and the decking is very durable. On a steep hill, the crampon system gave me a very good grip on the slope. My only complaint is that the heel migrates slightly, but it does not affect the performance in any way. A great snowshoe overall! Similar Products Used: Atlas 833 Atlas 1033 |

Good snowshoe, but had trouble with heel retention. I like to run in snowshoes, and these performed reasonably well. Similar Products Used: None |

I can anticipate that my tubb's peak snow shoes will get me where I got to go no matter how extreme the conditions. I will hike to far and distant regions in some of the coldest climates with confidence in my shoes and nuts and bananas in my pocket for nutrition. Customer Service Don't have any and hope never to have any. Similar Products Used: I think I've had tubb's under garments before, but I'm not sure. |

The first time I took these out, the binding fell off. The nut on one of the three bolts holding the binding off had come loose withing the first 100 yards of my trip (better then than later!). On my way out, another had come loose. If you take them out, make sure the binding is tight, and bring a pocket tool and maybe some spare nuts. |
