MSR Lightning Tails Deep snow conditions on a Canadian winter trail can change fast, and carrying a pair of Lightning Tails means you're ready to adapt without switching to a diffe rent snowshoe altogether. These modular flotation tails add 5 inches of length to any Lightning snowshoe model, increasing surface area on demand when you hit deeper snow or shoulder a heavier pack. The concept is simple and genuinely useful: move through packed or variable conditions with the agility of your standard Lightning frame, then clip on the tails when the snow gets serious. The attachment system has no moving parts and works without removing your snowshoes or reaching for any tools, so swapping them on and off mid-trail takes seconds. At 9 oz for the pair, they're light and low-profile enough to toss in a pack on any winter outing without meaningfully affecting your load. Built from aluminium and nylon/TPU, they're durable enough to handle the same conditions your snowshoes were designed for. Adds 5 in (13 cm) of flotation length to any Lightning snowshoe Compatible with all Lightning snowshoe models and lengths Weight per pair: 9 oz (0.26 kg) No-tool attachment and removal without removing snowshoes Frame materials: aluminium and nylon/TPU Low-profile and packable for on-demand use Show more
