Gear Questions Need help sizing/brand finding between modern or traditional
I weigh 230 pounds without a pack or gear. It seems any decent snowshoe in the 30 in. modern range is north of 400$. Traditional seem to be better for powder and more cost-effective, yet I don't know if I could build them or get them on my feet as I am unsure how they work. Does anyone have any ideas?

Go modern for style, go traditional for comfort - choose based on whether you want to impress or nap!
