Its a marketing gimmick to sled dogs, they dont skate well & is slow on most types of snow out there.

There are some golden quotes on the store site.
"Snowfeet is a new booming winter sport.Thousands of people already do this sport and the the number is increasing every year. Experts assume it might become an Olympic sport one day."
" What is more, Snowfeet can take you to places, like small forrest paths, where you wouldn't get with skis or snowboard."
"Moreover, Snowfeet allow you to go to places, where it is difficult to get with skis or snowboard. You can climb the mountain only with a pair of Snowfeet in your hands and then go down the hill through the forrests and be the part of a winter nature. Places like small forrest paths, where everything is covered by snow, will make you feel that real beauty of nature."

"WE DO NOT RECOMMEND USING SNOWFEET ON STEEP SLOPES. BE CAREFUL, BECAUSE IT CAN BE MORE DIFFICULT TO turn or stop with snowfeet than IT IS with skis."

"Zbyněk Šuba

Zbyněk is the CEO of this company. Even though he doesn't really know what CEO means, it sounds cool. In his free time he thinks. Yes he just thinks about anything."

"Michael Podešva, Michael is a very handsome guy and that makes him very smart. His IQ is 159, but he has a soul too! In his free time, he plays football and reads Bible. Yes, Bible."

Wait... The video that came up was a guy sliding into a bin somewhere in Europe with what looked like plastic stuck to the bottom of his shoes.

Getting around the mountain on these would be hell.. no way you can go faster than 10 miles per hour. Maybe they should just sell this in the t-line gift shop so tourists have something to do when they see snow for the first time.

Snowfeet probably will "sponcer" anyone from NS wearing a pair if he/she can do better & land them, anybody willing? Wearing gold Ruroc helmet will surely increase your chances

If you don't wear these with snowboard boots or something equally stiff you're gonna die. Sleddog bases without the uppers. People are gonna be blowing right of these if they try to hit the park.
