By Ol' Hiker from Western NY on 08/12/2009 Pros: Easy to adjust, Good grips, Lightweight, Strong Best Uses: Day trip, Hiking Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Minimalist Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I used them once since buying them and liked them. I would need a few more trips to get a better overall feeling for them but I think they will meet my needs nicely.
Light as a feather and strong By CO life is good from Colorado on 08/03/2009 Pros: Easy to adjust, Good grips, Lightweight, Strong Best Uses: Backpacking, Day trip, Hiking Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I used these on an 11 mile trek near timber line and found them to be incredibly light and comfortable. I'm sure they will see a lot of use. Sometimes in the past I have taken a chance on my knees and not used poles because they were too heavy or cumbersome - no longer!

By Mo from Pa. on 09/20/2007 Describe Yourself: Backpacker Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Poles feel quite sturdy for how extremely light they are. They are about 1/3- 1/2 the weight of my aluminum poles. The foam grips are a little hard, not as comfortable as rubber, but just something to get used to. The locking system feels secure. Not trail tested yet, just initial observation. I never had my old poles over 125 cm so I purchased the compact(women's) version for the shorter collapsed length.
