Very few thrills, but all you need. My first pair lasted 4 years of heavy usage and a good few falls. Since then they’ve added a plastic “guide” between the poles that really helps the ease of putting them together quickly, on the go.
Purchased these poles one week out from my first mountain half - Mt Difficulty Ascent. They were quick to assemble on the course and super lightweight and comfortable to carry - I ended up not packing them down for rest of the race. Survived the 25km and was not in near as much pain as I expected after the gruelling decent. Highly recommend.
These poles are so light yet so strong. I had a fall onto them, they flexed a long way, no damage. I did not expect them to handle that. Very impressive indeed. The string system is good. I highly recommend these poles.
Ordered these poles based on price point and the fact that they are light. Really easy to pull together and break down. Can’t wait to try them out, they feel well made and strong. Came with 2 mud baskets and in a mesh drawstring bag. Not 100% taken with the grips but due to the length of races I’ll use them in I also purchased myself some biking gloves as per some advice from another ultra runner.
