By Ints from Los Angeles on 10/31/2009 Pros: Flexible, Good grips, Lightweight, Strong Best Uses: Backpacking, Day trip, Hiking Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: These poles are amazing. My intention was to lessen stress on my knees an these poles did the job. They are super light and it's just so much easier taking on these steep trails with heavy pack on. The adjustment isn't one of the easiest. At first I had hard time to get one of them locked. After a while messing with it I figured that you'd have to collapse the section all the way and then turn clockwise (don't lock it, just get started, you'll feel it) to get the locking mechanism started and then adjust the section to desired length then tighten all the way. Not very fast but poles are sleek and wont snag on anything.
