Quality is ok but not for the price. Shafts are fine, the locks leave a little to be desired, tensioning is inconsistent Aluminum cams, why, with the rest being plastic?! These weigh more than advertised. No cork handles for this price? They’re fairly nice poles but they’re worth about half the price they are. Definitely not competition for BD or Leki at the same price. Chinese poles marked up by 50% to foot the bill for a new start up company. Not sure how they expect to compete with Cascade Mountain Tech when CMT sell a nicer pole for less than half. Apparently Brian Call and Corey Jacobsen carry some weight or some people think they do. More elk have been packed out of the BC with CMT than ever will with these. If you want cheap, CMT. If you want the real deal, Black Diamond. Don’t waste your money on these.
High quality for the price.
Never used trekking poles before these but feel that they made a difference in my hiking, specially with weight. I don’t have big hands (medium in most gloves) and the handle are a little big for my hands but not uncomfortable. They worked will for me.
I've been using the Pro series now for 2 years of packing Coues bucks out of the rough Southern AZ hills. They have held up great. We had order the Elites recently that had some issues. I am mentioning this because PEAX made us whole very quickly and the Elites are completely 100% now.
Used these sticks on my recent hunt in Colorado. I loved them! Seem to be made well and I really liked the design on the handles. Super comfortable in your hands. Would def recommend them.
