Cascade Mountain Tech Trekking Poles - Carbon Fiber Walking or Hiking Sticks with Quick Adjustable Locks

I took these on a long hiking trip and very much appreciated the additional power from using my arms and felt more confident negotiating streams and tight trails with them. The handles are reasonably comfortable, the cork feels good, but the straps do come loose and require tightening now and then. I have only used the smaller baskets. They are easily adjusted and feel secure. They are light and much lower costs than what I saw in recreational stores.

Really solid carbon hiking poles at ~half the cost of comparable. I took these on 120 miles of the Haute Route in Switzerland and they held up great. The carbide tips gripped the granite perfectly, were very light and easy to collapse and pack away. Highly recommend!

First, I am not a hiker (by any stretch of the imagination). I have spinal issues and have difficulty walking any distance. I am that woman who grabs a cart in the parking lot at the store to help me get around. I LOVE these poles!! They are very easy to use once you get the hang of them. They are easy to adjust consistently with the markings printed on the poles, and the thumb latches can be tightened or loosened to facilitate that. When you get them it is important to take the time to figure out the proper height, adjust the hand straps (the hardest part for me), and technique for using them. I found a number of videos on YouTube which helped (and were better than the manufacturer's tutorials). The different feet are easy to switch out and you really do want to use them - they definitely help! I find them particularly good when walking on an uneven surface. I think it's probably the position my back is in (slightly tilted forward) that reduces the pain I experience when walking. They are lightweight but sturdy and easily slide in and out of the well constructed carrying bag. I keep them in my car because they come in useful when going to an outdoor concert on the lawn, if all the handicapped parking spaces are taken, etc. An additional plus is that I was able to use my medical coverage's wellness reimbursement benefit to pay for them (which I'm generally unable to use). I have no idea how these would work for serious hiking but they are helping this 64 yo woman continue to lead an enjoyable independent life. I am SO glad I purchased them!!

I purchased these because I've never used trekking poles and I wondered "Well, my knee hurts more than it used to... maybe I should give poles a shot," and I'm glad I did. Firstly, if you're wondering "gee, should I use trekking poles?" the answer is "yes, you should." Your next question is "Should I use THESE trekking poles, the answer is "Maybe?" PROS: - These are cheap and if you end up hating trekking poles for whatever reason, you're not deeply invested. They come with a lot of accessories which gives you bang for your buck. They will reduce the strain on your knees and hips (like all brands will). I found them very comfortable and easy to adjust. I've learned to use them almost like a clock, helping my pacing and keeping me moving at a steady rate. I like the cork handles. CONS: One of my poles makes a "brrwaoowningingig" sound when it comes down. The other doesn't. It's a slight nag, but it's not the end of the world. Certainly it isn't an additional $100 of bother to have picked up different poles. My instruction card was missing, but I mean these are poles; you'll figure it out. Overall - Great price, good poles for testing the waters. Dozens of miles and I'm still very happy with them. One day I'll almost certainly buy a really expensive pair of trekking poles, but I bet these will be passed onto someone else because they seem to be built to last (so far!).

We like these hiking poles. Lightweight and easy to adjust. Sturdy enough.

These poles are exactly as described and functional. It comes with a carrying case and multiple tips for various hiking and walking terrain. It is durable and holds its position well once set. Additionally, it is easy to adjust and shorten for putting in its’ case and in suitcases for traveling. Be aware that most airlines do NOT allow trekking poles to be brought on board. These poles seemed expensive while I considered what to purchase, but they have easily been worth the price.

I chose these for my wife because they were the lightest ones I found. In short, she LOVES them! They are strong and super easy to expand when using and collapse when storing. I haven't used them myself, but I like that they easily adjust to a different height so I don't have to buy my own pair if I want to use them. They have several optional tips that you can switch out depending on the weather conditions, the surface conditions of your trail, and even have a protective cap to cover the bare spike so that it doesn't poke a hole in the bag. Speaking of the bag, THANK YOU for providing a bag with enough space to easily and quickly throw all pieces in without having to make it fit in one specific way. The wrist straps are comfortable and large enough to work with a wide variety of hand and wrist sizes. Overall, I'm exceptionally pleased with this product and very happy I chose these particular poles for her. I may just need to order a pair for myself... or take her black ones and get her a different color of her choosing :-)

These have been excellent in helping me recover from my chemotherapy. They help me maintain my balance and I have significantly increased my number and speed of steps over the last few weeks. The are very adjustable including the hand straps. I highly recommend them.

Tienen buena calidad, lo malo es que las extensiones se bajan si te apoyas mucho sobre ellos, aun así aguantan súper bien para salidas de hike avanzadas … sigo sin encontrarle un uso a los accesorios adicionales.

produit soigné vraiment un très bon rapport prix qualité je le recommande, je pratique la rando chaque semaine moyenne 30 km par semaine à travers bois chemins escarpés, ils me sont indispensables réglages rapides et efficaces.

Diseño: El diseño de los bastones brindan un adecuado confort al caminar y al sujetarlos. Funcionalidad: El peso de los bastones es casi la mitad del peso de unos bastones de iguales dimensiones de aluminio, por lo que disminuyen considerablemente el cansancio al caminar con ello. La resistencia fue increíble, soportaron mi peso (72 Kg) y el de mi mochila (23 Kg) al efectuar vadeo de ríos y bajada en pendientes de +- 45 grados, se reviso la punta y el desgaste prácticamente fue nulo tomando en consideración que la mayoría del trayecto fue en roca. La altura es ajustable y los seguros aprisionan firmemente para mantenerlos en esa longitud, es decir, el bastón no se encoje con la presión que se ejerce durante el uso como ocurre en bastones de mediocre calidad, cuyos seguros tienden a no apretar, a quebrarse o a ceder con el peso. No se observo flexión alguna ni fisuras después del uso. por lo que es indicio de una buena resistencia. Se observo que los mangos del bastón no se desprendieron a pesar de que estos se mojaron. Contiene otros accesorios que también son de buena calidad y resistencia que he probado en lodo, su desgaste es nulo.

buenos,pero al año una de las uniones falló en el bloqueo y ahora 2 de agosto2024 se ROMPIO !!!! una de las puntas(como puede ser!) por lo que ahora solo me queda un bastón.
