4-season trekking pole - MT500 All season, brown/black

Description

Model designed for regular hikers looking for a versatile pole for all-year use. Suitable for everything: hiking, snowshoeing, ski touring. The story of its development... Fully designed and validated by us at the foot of Mont Blanc. The starting point of the design was the adjustment via an external locker for more precision and speed. We have designed a handle with an extra-long grip that allows for multiple holds: along the tube on climbs and slopes, by the wrist strap for an effective push, and by the handle on descents. We use our best 7075-T6 aluminium combined with a simple and robust 2-section construction. How to adjust the poles to the right length? The forearm holding the pole should be perpendicular to the arm along the body. To do this: - open the external locker lever - slide the tube to the desired length - close the lever Never exceed the STOP line, the pole could break. Usage tips These hiking poles are designed to help you maintain balance, propel yourself, and distribute effort between your arms and legs. For more safety, check the pole's locking before leaving and at regular intervals, simulating significant pressure. If you notice the pole tends to shorten with use, you need to adjust the locker wheel. Open the lever and tighten the wheel by a quarter to half a turn. Do not place on the backpack during a storm. Why do we sell the pole by the unit? At Decathlon, we have decided to sell hiking/trekking poles by the unit. Firstly, for reasons of use. Indeed, there are people who only want to use one pole. Secondly, because if a pole breaks, you can buy one to replace it instead of a complete pair. Accessories sold separately and adapted to this model The advantage of buying Forclaz hiking poles is that you have a wide range of compatible accessories and spare parts available. This allows you to enjoy the pole for longer.
