    This product is for…

    Ski tourers doing long approaches who want a stable, adjustable two-piece pole without the complexity of a three-piece design. Less suited to splitboarders, who may prefer a more packable option.

    Worth noting…

    The two-piece construction is flagged as a deliberate advantage over three-piece poles for skiers specifically. Notes are thin and one-sided, so no caveats or fit flags are available.
