Komperdell

Carbon Ultralite Vario 4 Ski Poles

Splitboarders and gram-counting backcountry skiers rejoice, the Komperdell Carbon Ultralite Vario 4 Ski Poles won't weigh you down on the skin track, and they pack down to only 39cm if you're boarding down. Komperdell constructed these poles out of carbon to keep weight down without hindering overall strength. They collapse into three sections, and the sections lock into place with secure Approach 2.0 locking mechanisms. One of the sections is adjustable for an even more versatile performance, and the PowerLock 3.0 locking mechanism maintains whatever length you choose. The foam grip extends down for choking down the poles on steep skin tracks with sharp switchbacks. Both the Ice-Flex baskets and Ice-Flex tips keep stable on the firmer snow that usually inhabits higher altitudes.
