"they're somewhat pricey, but it's the best you can get"
"Perfect trekking poles for the in between. These poles feel great and have zero vibration in use and their ergonomics with their strap material make it a pleasant experience."
"The best of the best. If Janis can use them as a bat against a grizzly I’m sure they’ll be fine for hiking."
"Great customer service."
"Used them for the first time this year while navigating some steep terrain. They actually helped! Super lightweight."
"Complete garbage. I am writing this review to inform people just how dangerous these poles are. I had both of my poles snap when I needed them the most; on the side of very steep mountain in Idaho with a buck on my back! Luckily I did not get impaled or fall off a cliff. These poles are great for a 25lb pack and recreational hiking on moderate grades. They are absolutely not for hunting. Over time, the carbon develops stress fractures and then snaps like a twig. Don't believe me? Put 70lbs on your back and then get on a steep hillside and lean on the poles and see what happens. You put your life at risk with this product."
"Complete garbage. I bought these to use on my elk hunt. One of the poles (the one marked "L"...why is there a left and right pole anyway???" would not stay locked. Every time I put any pressure on the pole, the tubes would slide up. I spent most of the hunt unclipping the L pole and pulling it back to length. The one marked "R" stayed exactly where I put it the entire hunt. So apparently there was something wrong with the clip/locks on the "L" pole because neither of them would stay put if I put any pressure on it."
"Lightweight trekking pole that collapses to a fairly small size. I got into some rough country with these poles strapped to the outside of my pack, and unfortunately I lost one of the clips for adjusting the size of the pole. Otherwise a solid product from a solid brand"
