FAQs

Can these poles be used for snowshoeing?

While these are designed for Nordic walking and trekking, they can be used on packed snow, provided you add the appropriate snow baskets (not included).

How do I know the correct length for my height?

A general rule is that your elbows should be at a 90-degree angle when holding the poles with the tips on the ground.

Are the rubber tips replaceable?

Yes, standard trekking pole tips are generally compatible with these poles once the original set wears out.

Are these poles suitable for heavy-duty backpacking?

These poles are ideal for general trekking and fitness walking but are best suited for light to moderate trails rather than extreme mountaineering.

Does the set include two poles?

Yes, each purchase includes a pair of poles to ensure a balanced, symmetrical workout.

Troubleshooting

Pole sections sliding down during use

Ensure the locking mechanism is tightened securely; if it continues to slip, clean the inner shaft with a dry cloth to remove any moisture or debris.

Difficulty twisting the sections to lock or unlock

Check for grit inside the seams; rinse with water, allow to dry completely, and ensure there is no sand obstructing the threads.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely versatile for both casual walking and serious trekking
  • Highly adjustable height range (80-140 cm) fits most adults
  • Durable aluminum frame stands up to consistent wear
  • Includes a pair for a complete, balanced workout

Cons

  • Two-section design takes more time to pack than three-section models
  • Requires manual tightening of locking mechanisms
  • Lacks shock-absorption features found in premium expensive models

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your poles, twist the two sections in opposite directions to unlock the internal friction mechanism, slide to your desired length, and twist firmly in the opposite direction to lock. Ensure the poles are kept clean and dry after each use, especially if used in muddy or wet conditions, to prevent corrosion of the aluminum. Periodically inspect the rubber tips for wear; if the tread has worn smooth, it may lose traction on slippery surfaces. Store the poles in a dry environment and avoid applying excessive oil to the internal locking threads, as this may cause the mechanism to slip during use.
