Abstract

A snowshoe includes a lightweight frame that provides traction and maintains the snowshoe's shape when traveling over at least one of the following surfaces: snow, hard-packed snow and ice, and a binding to fasten the snowshoe to a boot with a gloved hand. The frame includes a peripheral component having a length, a height orthogonal to the length, and a width orthogonal to the height and at least two times shorter than the height at all locations along the height. The binding includes a strap, and a retention element coupleable with the strap. The retention element includes a body defining a main passage in which the strap is disposed when coupled with the retention element, an access passage through which the strap passes to enter the main passage, and a locking element to secure the strap to the retention element.

Description

[0001] Cross-references to related applications [0002] This application claims the priority of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60 / 444,331, currently under examination and belonging to the applicant, under the title of White Litening Snowshoe, the entire content of which is incorporated herein by reference. Background technique [0003] Many people use snowshoes to facilitate walking in rugged and edge areas when the area is covered by heavy snow in winter. Depending on the latitude and altitude of the area, snow can often gather to a depth of a foot or more. It is very difficult to walk in the snow at this depth, because a person’s feet are caught in a foot or more of snow, so that a person needs to consume a lot of energy to lift his feet out of the snow cave to take another step. Therefore, when walking in such areas, many people put on a snowshoe on each foot to float their feet on the snow surface, that is, to prevent people's feet from sinking into the snow more than...
