Durable, folding trekking poles with superior packability and strength The G3 Pivot Trek poles wrap around the handle and lock into place when packed, making it super easy to fit into your backpack or cleanly attach them to the outside. This nesting feature gives a secure finish when packed which is ideal for backpacking. The lightweight aluminum construction of the pole is engineered for strength and durability while the design of the poles improves on stiffness and power over other folding poles. They feature an extended soft and comfortable foam grip with a dual-density plastic upper for precision in grip and handling and a comfortable and removable ultralight strap. The extended foam and the yellow rings along the shaft make it super easy to select more than one hand position when traversing.
