robustnessAluminium 7075-T6 /6061-T6. Large tube diameter 20/18/16mm. Tungsten tip- How it was designed...During our treks, we came up with the idea of this model which combines the ultra-compact design of our folding poles with the ergonomic grip of our sticks. Why? We have noticed that the standard grip does not suit everyone, particularly for long periods. Therefore, we designed this pole slightly differently so that you don't have to bend your wrist and can distribute the force more evenly throughout the arm as it is aligned with the pole axis.
- Why have we worked hard on durability?You trek to enjoy the calm of great expanses which sometimes takes you far from civilisation. You also carry your belongings for several days. Therefore, you need to rely on the resistance of your poles. We have selected wider tubes in the highest grade aluminium. We have secured the push-pin area with internal reinforcement. Compression tests (pressure on the pole axis) demonstrate that this model can support 790 N (~79 kg) per pole.
- Why have we focused on compactness?You'll probably have to use some form of transport to reach the start of your walk. You will also have to carry a lot of equipment in your bag. It’s therefore much more practical to have compact poles. Once folded, these poles can be stored in the side pocket of your trekking backpack or small hiking bag.
- How to adjust your poles to the correct length?To use the pole: firstly, extend the pole until the “click” of the push-pin. Refer to the instructions attached to the pole. To adjust the length: the arm along the body must be almost straight or slightly bent. This means that it's much shorter than a traditional pole: - Open the lever on the external lock; - Slide the pole to the desired length; - Close the lever. Never go over the STOP line to avoid breaking the pole.
- Directions for useThis hiking pole is designed to help you balance, propel yourself and distribute effort between arms and legs. To be on the safe side, check before you set off and at regular intervals that your baton is locked in place by simulating heavy bumps. If you notice that your pole tends to slide down, the lock mechanism needs adjusting. Open the lever and turn the knob a quarter to a half turn. Do not put on your backpack in case of a storm.
- Care tipsProper maintenance of your baton will ensure that it functions optimally and that it lasts longer. After use, if water has penetrated the stick, remove the strands and allow to dry. If necessary, clean the dust or mud with water or a dry brush. Once dry, you can reassemble the strands. We recommend that you do not attempt to oil or grease the mechanisms.
- Why is the pole sold individually?At Decathlon, we have decided to sell our hiking/trekking poles individually. First because of how they are used. Indeed, some people only want to use one pole. Also, if one of your poles breaks, this means you only have to buy one and not a complete pair.
- Accessories sold separately and adapted to this modelThe advantage of buying Forclaz trekking poles is that you have a wide choice of compatible accessories and spare parts. So you can enjoy it for as long as possible. - Hiking pole caps: ref. 8580865 - Summer baskets : ref. 8737774 - Winter baskets: ref. 8503857 - Replacement tip: ref. 8755646 or 8755646 (if new screwable version)
