Intro
It may be a cliché, but style counts, and the black with camouflage inserts and a bit of orange makes this one of the most stylish ski poles you'll find. It's a nice, two-piece pole with elongated foam grip, a soft, adjustable wrist strap, and safety-release mechanism. The combination of an aluminum upper section (16 mm diameter) and carbon-fiber lower section (14 mm) makes this pole both strong and lightweight. The aluminum locking mechanism is super resistant, and the articulated basket adapts well to slope changes.
