You can switch it out for winter and get the bigger powder baskets it weighs a. Pound and four ounces, so they're not quite the lightest fall on the market but for the flick left system i think they're definitely worth it they come in. A compact version if you're i.

Handhold and the extended length design. Allows you to grab the pole at varying. Heights and in the process saves you. From having to make micro adjustments or. Frequently making micro adjustments on side hill traverses and instances where. You may want the pole slightly varying. Heights with some frequency integrated. Straps take a lot of this stress off of. Your wrists these are fully adjustable and there's a really nice fuzzy interior. Here that feels very nice against your wrists at the top of the poles there is. A dimpled or ovoid portion of the pole. That fits perfectly in the palm of your. Hand which you'll find from time to time. You grab the pole that way out on the trail and that design makes this much more comfortable certainly a standout. Feature on the women's trail shock poles is the shock absorption mechanism itself black diamond has embedded that feature. In the grip you can see it here as i. Press on the grip you can see it actually give fear to drive the poles. Strongly into the ground that'll really give again take that stress off of your. Wrist when you're just placing the poles and not putting too much weight on it's very passive and you barely notice it really interesting mechanism that. Does exactly what it's designed to do. Women's trail shock poles consist of three sections the lower two sections. Being adjustable there's graduated markings on that. Middle shaft set that show you exactly where you're at their's a maximum length of 120 centimeters the flick lock mechanism. Couldn't be much simpler to use close it. You got a nice secure lock open it up. And you can move that hole to wherever you need it before again locking it back. Down in place low-profile shrieking. Baskets are included with the poles and.

Black diamond trail pro trekking poles. Are an excellent balance of price and. Performance you're getting a high-end. Feature set for year-round use at a. Really affordable price let's take a. Closer look at the features of the black. Diamond trail pro trekking pole the. Trail pro poles are three section poles. So you've got two points of adjust ability it enables these. Telescoping poles to collapse down to just 25 inches but gives them a nice. Adjustability range in fact all the way. Up to 55 inches you've got markings on. The shaft sections to let you know. Exactly what lengths you've extended them to and you've got easy to use and. Nicely constructed flick lock pro. Locking mechanisms so it is an external. Locking mechanism you don't need to worry over whether it's tight enough or loose enough open it moves it to where. You want it to be and lock it down the. Metal construction in play here on the flick lock pro mechanism increases. Strength and also increases their durability and the longevity you've got extended length evie a foam. Grips on the trail pro trekking pole so. A really nice comfortable handle next to. Skin that foam feels just really nice really comfortable you've got adjustable straps for your. Wrists the fabric on the inside of those. Straps wicks moisture which as well. Enhances comfort gives you a little bit of padding as well the extended length. To those grips comes in handy if you're. Using these in winter you've got gloved hands and it can just be you know a. Little troublesome to hold the poles while you're making adjustments you've got that much more range in which to grab the poles that length of grip range. Also comes in handy your side hilling or your traversing back and forth across a slope if you. Didn't have that extension you only have those top grips you might find yourself making micro adjustments to the length of the poles every time you turn on a switchback shouldn't be a little inconvenient can slow you down but you. Can set the trail pro poles to a height at which you can change where you're grabbing them as you've cut back and forth across that hill really convenient. Smart simple feature that certainly adds value to the poles on the other end of. The poles is where you will find black diamonds flex tech tips. That's this entire piece here at the bottom of the lowest shaft section it's. Worth mentioning that the design there is such that this whole piece is replaceable it's designed that way. Because it's also constructed in such a. Fashion that if you would find yourself with the poles in the kind of situation. That could break the poles by that i mean actually breaking or snapping the. Aluminum shaft sections instead of that. Occurring this piece can break away and while that might not sound ideal it's a. Lot better than having actually broken shaft sections especially in the. Backcountry so that is a replaceable part on the. Very end of that tip is where you'll find the carbide portion which is really. What's coming into contact with the ground on dirt on trail those kind of. Surfaces this is ideal this can be screwed off entirely and. Replaced with a semi-permanent rubber. Tip it's sold separately but. Available for purchase and replacement for that tip gives the poles versatility. And basically puts those poles in a much better position to perform on improved. Surfaces if you were using these as it all on roads or even indoors some people are taking these on museum wars and things like that or on rock. That rubber tip can actually give a. Little bit better performance on a smooth rock than the carbide tip might so again black diamond build some of. That versatility in while we're talking about that here on the tips you'll see some threading on the tip itself and. Just above it you'll see this low-profile trekking basket and most. Surfaces where you're probably not sinking very deeply into the ground anyway this basket is enough to stop the. Poles from going any further than you want them to if these poles were to go too far into the ground they're actually not giving. You that smooth supportive action that you're expecting of the poles the reason you're using them in the first place black diamond throws in with each pair. Of trail pro trekking poles these. Broader profile powder baskets if you think about using these in snow is. Gonna give way in a fashion that dirt or packed trails will not and in that case. You're gonna love the fact that these slow the progress of the poles into the ground you get that tip far enough in to give you the purchase you want and you keep moving forward so again great value built into these poles by having black. Diamond in Cleveland black diamond trail. Pro trekking poles with that durable. Aluminum construction those easy to use. Extremely durable flick lock pro external locking mechanisms the powder. Baskets thrown in you've got an excellent amount of value and year-round. Performance in this single set of bolts.

We're taking a look at the LEKI Micro Vario Carbon AS Trekking Poles.These are extremely collapsible, ultra lightweight trekking poles. They are perfect for your owns counting backpackers travelers who are looking for trekking poles that really collapse down into luggage and people who are looking for a lightweight pair of trekking poles that don't skimp on any features.

These are fully featured poles. The first thing I want to point out here about these poles is they actually do have a shock absorber at the bottom so the DSS in the naming here. It stands for a dynamic suspension system lake ease. Put a lot of research and development into this feature and there's an elastomer here at the bottom close to the point of impact of the ground.
It's lightweight and it's extremely durable so it's not going to wear out over a long period of time and the basic function of this shock absorber is really to take out that vibration that you feel through the trekking pole when you're hiking for long days long miles on the trail.

Sometimes that vibration that comes through the pole can irritate your wrists your elbows your shoulders and this just dampens that vibration.

The other standout feature of these poles is that they are extremely collapsible and the way leaky achieves this is by having a very durable cord that runs through all shaft sections of these poles and they go together almost like tent poles.

They remind me of the way tent poles are designed and then all you do in order to set them up is stretch that out and it tensions the cord that's inside and makes this very durable.

There's a push button here that comes out once you've got everything. Set up you can hear that positive click and then you've got an extremely durable pole here. Really great design now.

This is a carbon fiber so each of these shaft sections is extremely lightweight. Perfect for those ones can in backpackers and this does have an adjustable range.

These will adjust from a hundred and ten centimeters all the way up to a hundred and thirty centimeters. So fully-featured trekking pole here on those days where you may be climbing or descending and you really want to make quick adjustments.

You can also really just dial in the exact length of trekking poles that you need and this is lake ease speed lock. It's an external lock it couldn't be any easier to adjust basically you just flick it open with your thumb adjust it to the proper height and then flick it closed and you've got a really secure lock. While we're up here on the grips you do have an ergonomic leaky air gan grip. There are thermo grips so you've got really comfortable foam here.

The thing I really like about foam grips is they work well in all temperatures and in all seasons. In the summer if your hands begin to perspire this really wicks away sweat and you can keep a secure grip there with your hands but also in the winter this material works well with gloves. You have an extended grip here so if you need to grip the pole at a different spot. That's really easy and then you have this egg-shaped top that's really great for palming the top of the pole, so a nice wide top there. And then obviously you've gotten adjustable straps. They're really comfortable, they're lightweight and you can adjust them to just take the strain off of your wrists.

These are the leakey micro vario black carbon trekking poles long distance. Through hikers will love these because the construction is reliable for daily use, but they come in at a competitively. Low weight these poles provide reliable. Stability on the trail for under 17. Ounces prepare a lot of ultra. Lightweight trekking poles achieve a much lower weight by skimping on features like an adjustable length a. Packable design and an ergonomic grip these poles however beautifully blend. The benefits of fully featured trekking poles with the benefits of a minimalist. Design the carbon fiber construction keeps the weight low the folding design. Is great for travel and the adjustable. Length means that they'll fit most hikers perfectly there's a durable. Central cord that runs through all. Sections once that is tensioned the. Sections are secured many collapsible poles have a similar cord but these have an internal spring. Below the hand grip to give that extra tension on the cord when they're set up now to set them up attach all sections. Together and pull these two sections apart until you hear the clip and that. Means the cord is tensioned be sure the. Speed lock is secured down before you. Pull these two sections apart now the. Push-button lock system makes for quick assembly and especially quick packing. Away so to fold them down again just push the button to release the tension in the cord and collapse the poles down they even come with a storage bag for convenient travel the external speed. Lock two levers give a range of. Adjustability from 110 centimeters to. 130 centimeters to dial-in fit at the. Bottom durable carbide flex tips can. Bend up to 30 degrees without damaging. The lower pole sections you see this type of tip on a lot of lakey styles and. It's a tried-and-true design small trekking baskets are included but. You can pick up larger diameter snow baskets separately for winter use leakey. Does not skimp on the grip an ergonomic. Angle puts your wrists at a natural. Position and the lightweight argon thermo foam is really comfortable the. Grip extends down the pole so you can grasp at a lower section when you're hiking uphill and that saves you from stopping to adjust the poles the. Egg-shaped top is comfortable to palm. When going downhill and this strap is. Made of comfortable smooth fabric and adjust around your wrists now some folks. Ask us about the durability of carbon. Fiber carbon fiber is not as durable as. Aluminum when it comes to bumps and scrapes but all the common wear points are bolstered on these poles for example. Each carbon fiber section end is. Protected by a machined aluminum sleeve. And stainless steel connectors help to. Center those sections when setting up the poles you have more durable materials where it matters and lightweight materials where you want them leakey pulled out all the stops to.

The sections together once they're set up you won't see this button until all. Sections are locked into place okay from. A folded position hold the grip and let.

We're taking a closer look at the LEKI Micro Vario Cor-Tec TA lady trekking poles. These are the great option for those who are looking for a collapsible and lightweight pole. It also has a lot of features and is great for travel, hiking, backpacking and anything else. The thing I want to talk about first with these poles is just the collapse ability. This isn't your traditional telescoping pole where all the segments kind of go inside of each other and telescope down. This is truly a collapsible pole. As you can see there is a central cord that runs through each of the sections here and it's very durable.length collapses down really small. It`s easy to throw in your pack, in your luggage if you're traveling. If you're not using the poles during a particular part of your hike you can either lash them to the outside or just throw them right inside the pack.

It's pretty simple once you get the hang of it. You have that central cord that runs through the sections and the first thing I do is I attach the sections. It almost reminds me of the way a tent pole is structured. Each of the segments lock inside of each other and the second thing you want to do is find the two separate sections here up towards the top of the pole. You want to separate them and once you have pulled them far enough you will hear a positive click and a little button will make itself known they're. The first couple times you do it might feel like you have to pull on that a little bit harder than you would like but that's just to get a very secure hold. Once I do that I pull it and you have a positive click. Now all of the pole sections are securely connected to one another.

This is an adjustable pole so unlike some other collapsible lightweight poles like. This it's not fixed length. You can definitely adjust from 100 centimeters all the way up to 120 so you do have a lot of versatility with this pole. You don't have to worry about not getting the correct fit for your height to adjust the pole. Right now I have it set at its lowest usable length which is 100 centimeters but it's really easy to adjust with leaky speed lock.

In order to adjust it all you have to do is open the lock. Adjust it to your preferred height. I'm gonna adjust it. All the way up to 120 centimeters and when you do that it just it stops here at the top so you know you're at its highest point and then close the lock with your thumb. Tit's as easy as that there's no twisting, no turning. It's just open and closed. LEKI uses their argon grips for this pole which is a really high-quality argon comfortable handle. They definitely don't skimp there. So really great handle on there and you've got an extended grip here.

If you want to grip the pole at a different height while you're hiking you don't have to make those minor adjustments. You don't have to make the adjustments as often. If you want to have your hand on top of the pole you want to palm the pole. It really fits nicely into the palm of your hand and has some dimpling there and some resistance. So it's really easy to grip the top. You also have a really soft nice woven strap here and it's really easy to adjust for your height. Take the pressure off of your wrists with a strap so to adjust this. All you do is pull up on the top portion of the strap. You can make it longer or shorter and then just pull down on the top and it locks in.
It's a really comfortable lightweight women`s trekking pole.
