Sturdy Yet Lightweight Construction
When hiking, it is important that you can receive sufficient support without adding too much weight to your load. The Black Height-Adjustable Hiking Pole will add no additional burden as it is constructed from lightweight aluminium. This way, you can rest assured that the pole will provide you with reliable support while hiking without compromising your agility.
Is the Shock-Absorbing Hiking Pole Easy to Grip?
Not only is this hiking pole lightweight, it is also easy to grip. Featuring a contoured handle that fits comfortably into the palm of your hand, the hiking pole enables comfortable gripping without which ideal for long hikes and rough terrain.
A wrist strap is included for additional security, ensuring you won't lose your hiking pole if you let go of it. This is particularly useful when both hands are required, ensuring that you don't need to place the stick on the ground at any time or bend down to pick it up again. This is beneficial when hiking up steep inclines, as it significantly reduces the risk of the hiking pole rolling away if you should drop it.
Is the Black Hiking Pole Suitable for All Terrains?
When hiking, it is likely that you will happen upon varying terrains. Designed with this in mind, the Black Shock-Adsorbing Hiking Pole features a tungsten carbide tip and removable rubber ferrule to provide you with maximum grip, even on rough terrain. With the Black Hiking Pole, you'll be ready to take on any walking surface, whether solid and unforgiving or soft and unstable.
What Are the Shock-Absorbing Inserts For?
When walking on hard ground or hiking for any length of time, the impact of the hiking pole against the ground can reverberate up the pole, subsequently causing pain and discomfort to the wrist and arm. The Black Hiking Pole features shock-absorbing inserts with a convenient on-off mechanism for ascending and descending.
When Should I Switch the Shock Absorbing Function On?
We advise that you keep the shock absorbing function switched on when walking downhill, as this allows the internal spring to absorb the additional shock as your stick strikes the ground. This helps to reduce fatigue so you can keep up a good pace on longer hikes.
