This is the lightest pole in Komperdell's range, and it earns that by being the short one. Same ultralight carbon and same Powerlock 3.0 clamps as the standard Ultra Zero, in a 90-120 cm band that packs down to 57 cm. The 90-120 cm band 90 to 120 cm is the right range for shorter walkers, for anyone who runs their poles short by preference, and for steep ground where you want the pole tucked in close on a climb. If your usual walking length is above 120 cm, take the standard Carbon Ultra Zero instead - same pole, longer band. Ten centimetres shorter in the pack 57 cm packed against 67 cm for the standard version. That is the difference between a pole that sticks up past your head on a daypack and one that does not, and it makes them far easier to stash for a scramble or a flight. Nothing given up to get there The grip is the same Trek Pro 280 foam cork with an extended grip zone, the strap is the same Air Padded one, and the clamps are the same forged aluminium Powerlock 3.0. This is the full-fat pole in a shorter package. Weight 350 g the pair (175 g per pole).
