TrailBuddy Trekking Poles - Lightweight, Collapsible Hiking Poles

TrailBuddy Trekking Poles offer a complete set designed for the comfort and ease of use of trekkers, combining durable strength with lightweight portability. So why should you use trekking poles? First and foremost, they help reduce the impact of trekking on your knees, back, and hips. They also increase your speed, balance, and security on the trail. Trekking poles provide additional traction and points of contact, which are crucial on muddy or steep terrains. They can also act as a great walking aid if you are recovering from an injury or have balance issues. Additionally, trekking poles have various other uses, such as deflecting shrubbery or acting as a probe for puddles and quicksand, as well as providing defense against bears and other wildlife. They can even double as tent poles if needed.

One of the main advantages of using Aluminum 7075 for trekking poles is its durability. While carbon fiber may be lighter, it does not perform well under lateral pressure and is prone to snapping, especially on rocky terrain. Aluminum 7075, on the other hand, is much less likely to snap – it may bend under extreme pressure, but can often be bent back into shape and still be used.

In terms of locking mechanisms, Trekking Poles with Lever Locks offer the advantage of easy lengthening or shortening, as well as the ability to disassemble and reassemble them with ease. This makes them convenient for packing in a suitcase, as you can easily shave off an inch or two from the assembled length. Twist locks, on the other hand, can make this process almost impossible without breaking the poles.

TrailBuddy trekking poles are built to last, with a shaft made of Aircraft Grade Aluminum 7075, a handle crafted from Cork and EVA, and tips made of Tungsten Carbide. The carrying bag is made of durable Nylon, and the poles can be adjusted from 24.5 inches when collapsed to 54 inches when fully extended. These poles are strong enough to withstand any weather conditions while also being lightweight for easy use on the trail. The lever locks make them easy to adjust with just one hand, and the padded straps and cork handles provide a comfortable and secure grip. With TrailBuddy trekking poles, you can confidently tackle any outdoor adventure.
