I'm not impressed with these after a year or so. I broke one of them descending normally and repair is not possible. The grip is OK and I love the straps, but they do vibrat…

I used a more basic version of these for 45-days backpacking. They were awesome and worked great for everything that I needed. One of my trip mates had this pair and I got to…

I agree with the other review. These have very high quality and are great for long distances because the shock absorbers really take a lot of the impact when walking on hard t…

The poles are exactly as described. Weight is decent and strength is good. Best thing is the locking mechanism. No slip what-so-ever. Looking forward to using them this summer…

These poles were bought after returning top another brand that could not hold up. They have been exceptional! The extra grip pad on the neck is reall helpful when scambling, e…

Used these poles for 2 weeks in the Cascades with 65lb pack, both as trekking poles and self-belay in low angle snow. Were very sturdy and was confident in their strength. L…

I can't say enough good things about these poles. The flip locks work well, unlike some other poles I have seen. My pair has taken tons of abuse and still going strong. I l…

These trekking poles are pretty sweet. The price is great and I've had these poles for about two years now and haven't had any trouble on the slopes. 'I don't write many rev…

Super lightweight. When putting all my weight on them there is no slipping which is exactly what I was looking for. Easy to adjust and love the hand grips.…

I always thought that you grabbed a stick and used that. Boy was I wrong. These things have shock absorbers, are adjustable, and come when you call. pretty cool.…

First, these are not do it all poles. If you're looking for something that will work for casual walking, snowshoeing, backpacking, and doubling as a support for your tarp shel…

The lightweight, folding nature of these poles compromises their durability to an extent that they didn't work for me. I am not a huge individual (160#), and I typically carr…

Ultra light and incredibly strong. The cork grip is more comfortable than any other pole ive ever handled. The foam "choke-up" section is perfectly placed for those tough asce…

The title sums up these awesome trekking poles. I've used these on a few steep 4000'+ gain ascents, so far they have held up great. The extension cam-locks are the best lock…

I wasn't sure if I was going to like the anti-shock as in many poles it adds vibration / feels cheap. But these are solid and comfortable. Being tall, the Leki handle curve fi…

I bought this after I broke my last trekking pole on a tough climb. This pole is lightweight yet very sturdy. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this to anyone. The handle is…
