Until now, we mainly knew three forms of snowshoes: padel : round, diamond and drop of water. But brands never stop innovating, and then Head and his one-hole pala, the Extreme One, now Stiga and Siux offer unconventional shapes.
For Stiga, it's almost a habit after all, because after having done it in table tennis, the Swedish brand offers a pala with a very special shape, called Cybershape.
At Siux, it is a less radical style but ultimately quite similar, with a diamond-shaped racket with very marked edges.
Will these new formats really bring more to players and become widespread or is it just a marketing operation? Time will tell us…
