The Leki Speed Carbon Ski Pole's low-profile design, stiff carbon-composite construction, and light weight work together to enhance your lung-busting efforts while touring or racing. This carbon composite pole is made of 85% carbon for excellent stiffness at a minimized weight (7 grams lighter than the next pole down in the line) to optimize your power transfer and swing action. The grip's narrow profile shaves off weight and supports dynamic movement, and its combination of grippy, hard material and cork enhances energy transmission while ensuring a secure hold. The Trigger 3 strap also optimizes power transfer while providing excellent comfort, and you can quickly lock it in place or remove it thanks to Leki's easy-to-use Trigger S system. With the addition of a a versatile basket system that you can customize by attaching or detaching separate parts, you are able to tailor functionality for specific snow conditions. When you're primed for speed and ready to face whatever conditions that day brings, the Speed Carbon pole delivers.
