Founded to bring snowshoeing into the modern age, Atlas has maintained a devotion to technology and performance that has resulted in 19 patents from our original heel cleats and Spring-Loaded™ Suspension to our latest ReactiV™ frames. For more info, visit www.atlassnowshoe.com
I have the 23 inch for general walking to work, the 27 inch for backpacking. I live in Alaska and snowshoes are necessary for me to get places and these are aggressive enough to take on really steep hills. And they are so easy to wear!
Two pairs of Atlas snowshoes were given to me by someone who got them as a gift (no receipt). They had never been used and still had the labels on them. They had been in a basement (no UV rays) before I got them. All 4 bindings completely disintegrated. I explained this in an email to "customer service" even posing the question "How much would it cost to have these repaired?". I never got a response from them. What's funny (sad) is that supposedly they were a gift from one one of the owners or original investors in the company.
I have these and the atlas range bc. Both awesome although to be completely honest, the helium in loose snow is better for floatation due to spoon design. In crust or sidehill the range is better. Basically a atlas version of the msr lightning ascent. Both amazing and both I hope atlas makes a tail extension for as well
Run-Atlas, your Run-Atlas snow-shoe is being passed-off as Flux-Snowshoe on YTchannel: Sehraj wani. He shows the inactive Flux with obvious mention of it, but gives no mention to Run-Atlas as he passes your jogging lady off as wearing Flux. Sorry to be the tattle-tale, but its simply put: UNfekkingFAiR when people do this. I've seen SO MANY videos showing the Flux, but never seen ANY progressive videos of it for more than a decade. I check in every few years, but its always the same footage. It can't possibly have taken off. Your Run-Atlas certainly spikes one's interest though. 👍
Hi! Are these the lightest snowshoes of Atlas production ? Are the lighter and different from Atlas Helium BC? Thanks for the answer and sorry for the confusion :D
Atlus lists these Trail versions as 3.55 for 26" pair, and 3.35 for the equivalent Mountain model, and 3.19 for the equivalent Backcountry model. So Backcountry is lightest. And yeah, I'm pretty sure these Heliums are the lightest they have, because they did away with the tubular frame design for these. They're called Helium because of the lightweight. The other difference between this and the Backcountry model, is that the BC has more aggressive crampons, and the binding is a little bit different. The binding to me looks more difficult to adjust, but the idea is it packs pretty much completely flat, for when you need to shove them in a pack or carry them.

I needed an extension strap to add to the heel to fit big boots. Does anyone know how to add the strap? Any link to known videos to help with this would be appreciated.
*Even on deep powder, these supported my 180 lbs with no problem. Easy to put on and take off, easy to walk on. ==>**t.co/EgIzrlDupN** They are very well made and sturdy. The carry bag is excellent as well; well made and very durable looking. For the price these snowshoes area no-brainer for getting out in deep snow.*
Love your channel, snowshoeing is a great winter pastime. We love snowshoeing in northern Ontario. Anything to get out and enjoying our wonderful winter wonderland. Couch potatoes don't know what they are missing! Wishing you all the best, Celine and Gerry
