Having used the MSR Ascent bindings personally, I do not slip when I'm going up and downhill. Many other snowshoes on the market are using aluminum, which bends. The aggressive toe treads are carbide steel, which is really strong. This prevents your feet from getting all mangled when you're on the trail. That nice honeycomb shape for the foot binding really spreads out the pressure points. Men's usually from about 25 inch to about 30 inch, and then you can add tails onto them to increase the volume with the MSR Lightning Ascent. If you want to go faster, this snowshoe does it. This one saves a lot of weight in your feet. These are ideal for longer duration snowshoes, or if you want to do multi days. When we move on to the MSR Lightning Ascent, the weight gets a lot lighter. It has an aggressive tread, which makes it a little bit heavier. The MSR Revo is a really good all around snowshoe. When you're going up steep hills, the Revo has the lift bar to flatten that angle up for you. The Ascent snowshoe binding is also a very easy binding to put on. The binding found on the MSR Revo Ascent and Lightning Ascent really alleviates pressure in the toe box by spreading it out over this honeycomb pattern on the forefoot part of the binding. With other snowshoes, you can get pressure points in your forefoot. The Ascent binding is designed to relieve pressure points on the foot. This tread provides excellent grip for going uphill and downhill. It’s a really aggressive crampon binding, so it helps you dig in the very aggressive tread on the side frame. The binding is really designed for extended trips. What makes this series is the binding and the lift bar in the back.
