FAQs
How do I adjust the height of the poles?

When should I use the rubber feet?
Use the rubber feet when walking on hard surfaces such as rock or roads to prevent slipping and reduce noise.
When should I remove the rubber feet?
Remove the rubber feet when walking on soft surfaces like forest floors, moorland, grass, or snow to allow the tungsten tip to grip properly.

The wrist support attaches to the handle of the pole. Ensure it's properly adjusted for a comfortable fit.
What material are the poles made from?
The poles are made from Aluminium 6065.

Troubleshooting
Pole won't lock securely.
Check the fast-twist locking system for any obstructions and ensure it is fully tightened. If the issue persists, inspect for damage and contact Robens support.

The tungsten tip is designed to be durable, but it may wear down over time. Replacement tips are often available from retailers or Robens directly.
