Using these trekking poles is easy. First, adjust the poles to your desired usable length. The quick speed - cone deployment makes it a breeze. When you're on the move, hold the poles by the soft - touch grip top with the natural cork and EVA foam extension for a comfortable hold. The Fusion comfort strap provides extra support. For different terrains, you can swap the tech tips. Use the carbide tips on hard surfaces and the rubber ones on softer ground. As for the baskets, choose the 60mm Alpine Z - Pole baskets for normal conditions and the 100mm Compactor Powder baskets in snow. When you're done with your trek, collapse the poles to the compact size for easy storage. To maintain them, keep the poles clean after each use. Wipe the grip and the shaft with a dry cloth. Check the joints regularly to ensure they're in good condition. Avoid using the poles in extremely harsh conditions that could damage the carbon fiber shaft.
