About GV Snowshoes Winter Trail: OK, so this is 6000 gauge aluminum framing with an Olefin decking, ratchet binding system, also we have aluminum cleats, with the Teflon paint on them, and what makes this pivot system particular is what we call semi-soft pivot system. So, it can be easily used on deep snow or on compact snow due to the fact that it is very, very soft. So if you go on hard packed snow you don’t feel the pivoting system under your foot.
