TECHNICAL INFORMATION

How to adjust your walking poles?

Hold the poles with your arms bent at a right angle. To adjust them: Unscrew the middle strand, underneath the ring of the lower strand, locate the size of the desired stick (in centimetres), and screw back firmly but do not overtighten; repeat with the lower section. NEVER GO OVER THE "STOP LINE", or the pole may break during use.

User tips

Before leaving: Always check that your sticks are tight.
During descents, or during strong pushes in the mountains, for example, you can adjust the sticks to make them longer.
When walking downhill, it's best to remove the strap so the pole won't get in your way if you fall.

Accessories

Summer washer (small diameter) unscrewable, supplied.
Compatible with winter washers, wider.

OUR COMMITMENTS

Our field testers: all our poles are tested in use, by users who are representative of those for whom the products are designed, under conditions similar to those that you can find in use. Our Field Test Missions team up our product managers with people not affiliated with QUECHUA to test, improve and validate our products.
Test Product Laboratory bending and compression tests are carried out on the unfolded stick to ensure its effectiveness and resistance if the hiker has to heavily rely on it. Tests are also carried out to assess how the tightening systems cope with pulling, tightening and repeated stress, and pull tests on the tips and handles simulate poles getting stuck when in use.
Guarantee : 2 Years
