Trail Back Trekking Poles

The FlickLock mechanism is a user-friendly locking system that allows you to easily adjust the length of your trekking poles. By simply flipping a lever, you can secure the pole at your desired height. This feature ensures that the poles remain locked in place during use, providing you with the stability and safety you need on challenging trails.

EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) foam is chosen for its softness, durability, and shock-absorbing properties. This material makes the grips comfortable to hold, reducing hand fatigue during long hikes. With EVA grips, you can enjoy a more comfortable hiking experience, even on extended adventures.

Carbide tips are made from a very hard material that enhances the durability and traction of your trekking poles. These tips grip the ground effectively, especially on rocky or icy surfaces, providing you with better stability and safety while hiking. This means you can confidently tackle various terrains without worrying about slipping.

Interchangeable baskets are circular attachments at the bottom of trekking poles that help prevent them from sinking into soft ground, such as mud or snow. You can easily swap out these baskets depending on your hiking conditions—using wider baskets for snow and narrower ones for rocky trails. This customization allows you to optimize your poles for different environments, enhancing your overall hiking experience.

A three-section pole design allows for easy adjustment of the pole's length, making it versatile for different users and terrains. This design also enables the poles to collapse into a more compact size for convenient storage and transport. With a three-section pole, you gain stability and support while hiking, especially on uneven ground, without sacrificing portability.

To find the right length for your trekking poles, stand upright and hold the poles with your elbows bent at a 90-degree angle. The grips should be at the same height as your wrists. Adjust the length using the FlickLock mechanism until you achieve this position. Properly adjusted poles will enhance your comfort and stability while hiking.
