New Series focused on technical, summit-ready performance.

Seattle, Wash. (December 16, 2015) – On the heels of its 25^th Anniversary year, Atlas-Snow-Shoe Co. is introducing a brand new series of snowshoes to its ever-evolving line. Launching in 2016, the Atlas Peak Series will feature three distinct models for men and women, built to tackle advanced terrain and deliver optimal traction, flotation, and precision.

“Our goal with the Peak Series is to present a unique line of snowshoes with precision suspension, each with their own degree of traction and performance bindings,” stated Kelsey Boyce, Atlas’ marketing manager, “The Peak Series is for the snowshoer looking to go further, with performance features to tackle technical terrain.”

The new Peak Series is an opportunity for the brand to exemplify its proven SLS™ (Spring-Loaded™ Suspension) technology and better position a collection specifically designed for go-anywhere performance. In addition to SLS™, the Peak Series will also introduce Atlas' first binding set up featuring the Boa® Closure system, named the new Wrapp™ Helix.

Building on the Trail Series, which Atlas launched a year ago, the Peak Series will further simplify the Atlas line in the minds of the consumer, offering a clear hierarchy of models for technical performance. The Peak Series features a collection of snowshoes designed to take you to the next summit, while offering a smooth-striding performance on mellower and variable terrain.
