Dynafit Broad Peak Carbon Fibre Adjustable Ski Touring Poles

Product Description

A stunning two-piece telescopic ski pole with the unique positive-locking Safety Snap system made from 100% carbon. There is no way that these poles can shorten under load, making them unique. It is not often that owner & buyer Scott gets excited by a product
- He is a moody chap after all
- but as someone who has worked with carbon fibre, he rates these poles as THE product of the season. The poles are adjustable, & there is nothing new in that. What is new, is that the issue with telescopic poles is that however strong you make the locking mechanism they are always prone to shortening under load which can be frustrating. Some, such as Leki, have all but eliminated this, but Dynafit has moved the goal posts & made it impossible to occur. This is achieved by notches in the carbon fibre & then a clamping system with a steel plate that engages in the notch to prevent any chance of the poles sliding. Creating perfect notches in carbon fibre that are strong enough is extremely difficult to do whilst maintaining durability, but Dynafit have invested in the technology & materials required to achieve this. Other features on this pole are hardened & anodised alloy lower spikes with carbide steel tips, with replaceable powder baskets, an EVA foam grip with medium density for perfect grip & comfort, & a Greptile Gripzone which is a sheath of specially selected material on the top section of the pole to give more hand positioning options when on serious & long hikes.

Specification Safety Snap locking system, with carbon fibre notches for rock solid clamping Winter disc & Alu Flex vario lower pole assembly with a carbide tip for precise grip Pack ski pole: 115 cm Maximum ski pole length: 145 cm

Materials: 100% Carbon upper & lower poles Feature: Greptile Gripzone Grips: EVA Ergo Grip with neoprene wrist straps Weight: 198 grams per pole   An absolutely stunning ski pole in every aspect. The locking mechanism is a simple & clever solution but having worked with carbon fibre is very hard to achieve. The grip is just the right density, the poles have plenty of rebound energy in them, & they are so light! My favourite product this season, & there are some great products this year so that is a bold statement!
