knee saviors

By:

I have bad knees and these trekking poles are literal saviors of my knees. I have done 3 major hikes this year and one backpacking trip up Bells Canyon in Utah and that puppy is super steep. The poles helped on the trail up to and were amazing coming down. Also the carbide tip is really tough as we spent a lot of time scaling bare granite boulder fields they held up marvelously compared to the cheaper wal-mart version a buddy of mine bought. I bought my father-in-law a pair for his backpack trip in the Wind Rivers Wyoming and he swears by them now too. The FlipLock pole extension system is amazing too - way easier than the standard twist versions. HIGHLY recommend!

Good, inexpensive trekking poles

By:
July 5, 2008

So far so good. For general hiking, trekking and nordic walking they have done the job. The flicklock system is nice and makes adjusting the poles easy. The grip and strap are comfortable for a pole in this price range. They are not very stiff but the flex they have seems to provide some shock absorption.

Tips on use.

By:
June 24, 2008

These poles work great, I love the "flick-lock" system. One thing to note is that this material is rust resistant, so you don't have to worry about conditioning them after a hike. I got back from a hike and thought I should rub them down with WD-40 to prevent rust but was later told that aluminum doesn't rust it only oxidizes, which is a non-issue.
