Carbon Fiber Construction: Carbon fiber's strength to weight ratio makes this material highly desirable for gear heads, but is quite functional in the skiing world. These poles have a very low swing weight, have excellent shock absorption, and are super strong. Taper Shaft: The shaft of this pole starts at the grip with a diameter of 12.7mm, then tapers down to the tip of a diameter of 10.4mm. This provides a stiffer flex and greater strength than the non-tapered 10.4mm poles, and adds only a slight amount of weight. Ice Breaker Tip: A sharp, yet durable tip doesn't slip on firm snow to get solid plants for turning and pushing along the flats. Keep in mind that they are sharp, so use caution during pole jousting matches. Rubberized grip: A tacky material aids in grip between the gloves and handle (grip) of the poles, so you don't loose, uh grip. Adjustable Nylon Strap: A nylon strap with easy adjustment ensures the poles don't get away from you after jumping off that big cliff on the backside of the mountain. Or with some imagination, they can help you carry a pair of skis. Inter-Loc Hook: This pole's strap has a metal loop that snaps into the handle, that will pop out if yanked hard, so your arm doesn't get torn off when the basket gets stuck in a bush. If you are fortunate enough to have Inter-Loc gloves, then this grip is compatible. |
