Carbonlite Single
CarbonLite walking pole - one of the lightest fully-featured poles on the market!
This 3 section walking pole is fully constructed from carbon fibre, making it uber-light with a high strength to weight ratio and excellent corrosion resistance. The 3 sections allow the pole to be shortened to 63 cm so that it can be effortlessly strapped to your rucksack ready for use. The sections adjust with a very sturdy twist-lock mechanism so there is no slippage.
The tip is composed of tungsten which has much greater strength and stiffness than many other usable metals. The EVA foam hand grips have low water absorption but offer excellent impact and vibration absorption as well as thermal insulation properties. The wrist strap reduces fatigue- they are easily adjustable with gloved hands with a simple pull motion and encompass EVA foam for added comfort. An optional extended handle is available to save you from adjusting your pole length every time the gradient changes.
CarbonLites come with trekking baskets and rubber feet to stop that bothersome clinking on hard ground.
CarbonLites are also available as pairs.
