Kahtoola was named the official snowshoe sponsor of the Rock & Ice Ultra Race, March 17-23 in Yellowknife in the Northwest Territories of Canada. The Rock & Ice Ultra includes the Cold Foot Classic-50 mile supported solo or relay race, K Rock-100 mile and Diamond 300-186 mile self-supported races. The Rock and Ice Ultra challenges athletes to cross this rugged winter wilderness via foot, snowshoes or cross country skis. Kahtoola will provide race demos and product support to racers throughout the event.
“We are thrilled for the opportunity to provide our product to the courageous racers of the Rock & Ice Ultra event. Our FLIGHTsystem™ will be the perfect choice since the warm cleated FLIGHTboot™ will be used alone most of time and the FLIGHTdeck can be quickly clicked on where the snow has drifted over the trail.” according to Danny Giovale, founder of Kahtoola.
