US Army Surplus SnowShoes

I got myself a new pair of US Army Snowshoes. They are made out of MAGNESIUM and they are wide and long and white and they come with strap-bindings and they were quite cheap (85 euros) and they seem to be really tough and durable. This is just a quick look video on them and not a review video. This far I like them but time will tell if they are any good investment - I hope they will carry me better on deep snow than my civilian models.

Nice magnesium tennis rackets my friend! The best part of the joke was when you said LOL Instead of laughing. I am in the states got a pair of these about a month ago fortunately had a discount code after shipping which was quite high due to the size of these paid about $40 came with the bindings. Typically they sell here in the states for a bit more than $60 US.
Great video thanks for the info and your experience prior to using them. They should hold your weight even with the heavy rucksack. The magnesium can also be shaved off and used as a fire starter.
