Enjoy sound, not make it city trekking! By Kelly from Portland, OR on 04/22/2008 Pros: Easy to use nakes safer Best Uses: City trekking transport Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational What Is Your Gear Style: Minimalist Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I use the tips two ways. One to reduce noise with city walking and to protect when in transit.
By bridgegal from Maple Ridge, BC on 04/16/2008 Pros: Easy to adjust, Flexible, Good grips, Lightweight, Strong Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Easy to put on walking poles, protects metal tips of poles and makes for smoother, less jarring arm weight bearing.
By Takijeep from Manchester, Ct on 04/09/2008 Pros: Durable, Good tight fit Best Uses: Good on pavementsidwalks Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational What Is Your Gear Style: Minimalist Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I would like to see tips that are a bit more "grabby" or softer on downhills with poles out in front the tips slip. I mostly use poles when walking for exercise and will try crutch tips or I'll make my own tips.
Does what its supposed to! By Cindy Bear from North Hollywood, CA on 04/06/2008 Pros: Easy to install, Lightweight, Stays on very well Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: The tip that came with the walking stick came off during a hike. I prefer a rubber tip to a metal point, even on rocky trails. So far, it's held up nicely and hasn't popped off in the muck or the rocks,
THEY DO WHAT THEY SHOULD! By hyperhorse from Missoula, MT on 03/16/2008 Best Uses: PHYSICAL THERAPY OF SORTS Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I dug out my trekking poles in the wake of an ankle surgery because the idea of using a cane was distasteful, while using a trekking pole...while serving the same function...made me feel adventuresome and on my way back to normal function. But I needed the tips to be able to use then on tile floors, etc. They've served well so far!
Secound pair. Wore out the last ones By Mountain Man Mark from Louisville Co. on 03/12/2008 Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Minimalist Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I use these for summer hiking
By Rob from Seattle on 01/02/2008 Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I got this for my Mom and she really likes being able to use the cane in the city.
By Angie from Asheville, NC on 12/14/2007 Cons: Slide if pole tilted, They are a little small Best Uses: Backpacking, Hiking Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I walk with two canes. The idea of the poles for me is to stand straighter. They do that, but if the pole is tilted slightly on a slick surface the pole slides. I need more of a cane tip. I'm trying to figure that out now.
They would probably be okay for someone with good balance not relying on themm to walk. I could not recommend them for someone with my problems, but would if they just needed them
A Must Have For Komperdell Stick By Ron, ex backpacker and spelunker from Centreville, Maryland on 12/12/2007 Pros: Good grips, Lightweight, Strong Best Uses: Backpacking, Car Camping, Day trip, Hiking Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Minimalist Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is a "must have" for the Komperdell Walking Stick. Since the walking stick comes with a carbide tip the rubbher tip allows use of the stick in "civilized" locations and prevents holes in the linoleum or scratched tile.
