The Backcountry 3.0 walking pole is crafted for passionate hikers seeking top - notch stability, strength, and long - lasting durability. Its aluminum alloy build is incredibly sturdy and tough. Featuring a telescoping 3 - segment design, it can be compacted down to 65 cm when not in use. The lower segment is marked with graduations, allowing you to easily set the perfect pole length. The grip is a game - changer. The main part uses soft foam, offering all - day comfort, while the top part is made of dense, grippy rubber for better control and high resistance to wear. The wrist straps are designed to be easily adjusted on the move, and they're different for the right and left hands to give you the utmost comfort. Carbide tips provide excellent traction and long - lasting performance. Other great features include the fast clip adjustable wrist loops, a fast and secure locking system with an aluminum alloy clip for quick adjustment, and the inclusion of rubber tip protectors. These poles can be extended from 67 to 135 cm, making them suitable for various hiking scenarios.
Using these walking poles is easy. First, adjust the poles to your desired length. You can use the graduated lower segments to set the right length quickly. Loosen the aluminum alloy clip, extend or retract the segments, and then lock it firmly. Slip your hands through the wrist loops and adjust them for a comfortable fit. The left and right wrist loops are different, so make sure you use the correct one for each hand. When walking, hold the poles with the dense rubber part of the grip on top for better control. For safety, always check the locking system before each use to ensure it's secure. When you're done hiking, compact the poles to 65 cm for easy storage. To maintain your poles, clean them after each use with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the aluminum alloy or the foam and rubber parts. Keep the carbide tips sharp by using them on appropriate surfaces, and if the rubber tip protectors get worn out, replace them to keep your poles in good shape.
