Gear Review
Compact and Lightweight Leg Savers!
By Mike Dawson
Ranked #838 - Snowshoes
August 9, 2006
When the shoes delaminated and foot blisters spontaneously formed in the 130 degree sand during one of the many Eco Primal Quest desert treks, these poles performed a critical role of lessening the burden and allowing our team to carry onward. The lightweight and compact design also allowed us to get the sticks out of the way during rock climbing disciplines. One area of weakness is the locking mechanism for the length ajustment, which sometimes was penetrated with sand and slipped if not severly tightened.
