20% OFF SALE DION 132 FRAME SNOWSHOE COMPONENT + FREE GROUND SHIPPING *contiguous U.S. only
Dion Snowshoes are not only made in the USA, they are made right down the road from us here in Vermont, and we are proud to offer these homegrown, premium racing/running snowshoes to our customers looking for the highest quality materials and craftsmanship. Designed, built, and used by experienced snowshoers, Dion Snowshoes are the only truly modular snowshoes available, where you can customize your pair by choosing the binding and cleat to perfectly suit your intended use. With just the turn of a screwdriver, individual components can be replaced as they wear or are upgraded. Dion Snowshoes are a smart and innovative custom alternative to similarly priced, non-interchangeable production models.
Made with the same premium materials and construction as the legendary, perfectly minimal Dion 121 Frames, the all-new Dion 132 Frames deliver a slightly larger, overall surface area and frame tube diameter. The result is the ideal universal, exercise fitness-running snowshoes for flawless performance in a broad range of terrain variations and snow conditions. The Dion model 132 frame is built to better withstand the daily abuses and rugged nature of realistic exercise and training conditions. Whereas the Dion model 121 frame is specifically engineered for ideal racing conditions, the Dion model 132 frame is perfectly at home in deeper powder, on ungroomed trails, rugged terrain and more.
Only slightly heavier than the ultra-lightweight Dion model 121 racing frames, the Dion model 132 running frames feature hand-crafted, lightweight and ultra-durable aircraft grade aluminum and lightweight, abrasion resistant snowshoe decking. The neoprene springs on the hinge ensures superior articulation and constant tension during all phases of the snowshoe running stride. The integrated heel cleat includes a Teflon Hardcoat to prevent snow and ice from sticking. Added strength is attained using sleeve-joined snowshoe frame tubing technology. The interlocking decking at the tail and tip of the snowshoes is double riveted and covered with polyurethane scrape plates. Specially shaped to maximize flotation while facilitating a natural running stride for men, women & youth. The Dion 132 Frame is an incredibly versatile solution for any level of snowshoe performance aerobic activity, from intensely competitive snowshoe racing to more casual snowshoe running and fitness exercise in decidely less than ideal terrain and snow surfaces.
