I just bought a pair of used Yukon Charlie Pro snowshoes, and the crampons on them are bent and coming apart (all the posts I've seen online said that the company advertised them as using stainless steel, but they actually used aluminum).  I could not find a site for the company to contact them for replacements, nor could I find any sites selling replacements.  Images are of some of the bent/torn parts, as well as a full shot of the snowshoe. Any thoughts on what I can do?Thanks!See More
