LEKI Makalu Antishock Trekking Poles - 1 Pair - 2007

The Leki Makalu Antishock AS Trekking Poles make putting miles between your Dodge and the mountaintop easy. Having a set of trekking poles is like adding four-wheel drive to your body. Leki's Easy Lock System lets you adjust the poles' length to match terrain and quickly change length when needed. The Soft Antishock System uses a spring and elastomer combination to tame rough ground and to keep the sting away from your hands. In addition, a flexible tip won't bend or break when stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Bottom Line: From Noatak to Nepal your trek begins with the Leki Makalu Antishock AS poles.

poles should be essential hiking equipment

I never go hiking without these. Adjustable height over a wide range,
comfortable grips, relatively light, and very strong. Yes, you can get
lighter poles, but will you trust them with your weight plus your pack's
weight, in tricky positions, getting stuck among rocks?
Note: this review is for the version _without_ the anti-shock. I'd
recommend those instead: I prefer the solid feel and slight weight
savings.
