Craghoppers Superlite Shock Absorber Walking Poles For All Walks And Walking Routes
I use Craghoppers Superlite Shock Absorber Walking Poles for the majority of walking routes as I find they are ideal for all sorts of walks. Every walking pole is produced of aircraft grade aluminium and extends to 60cm to 125cm so perfect all all heights and are exceptionally lightweight at only 265g.
Every shock absorbing pole has a composite cork and ligh foam grip handle with an adjustable padded strap along with a narrow profile three section design which effortlessly twists in to a lockable position.
I primarily use these poles for when the ground is often a little unstable for far better balance over rockier terrains, steep declining tracks or walking across shingle banks or loose stone underfoot. They have also been very handy for an improved traction on wet hill walks as the bottom of the pole may be removed to reveal a spike. That way the pole does not slip, it digs straight in to the soil and achieves decent balance.
Craghoppers have considerable technical know how and have created an amazingly light yet superbly strong walking pole that takes the strain out of any trek. The cork and foam grip handle means it does not chafe my hands and also the adjustable strap enables me to comfortably secure them when climbing over stiles and crossing fords. They are actually properly suited to outdoor and Nordic walking.
About Craghoppers:
Craghoppers began to make outdoor clothes particularly developed for the harsh outdoor elements back in 1965. A group of adventurers in West Yorkshire had been planning to climb Everest and wanted top notch outdoor clothing to withstand the harshest of conditions, so they researched and developed fabrics that would defend them from the extreme cold. All their preparation paid off as they successfully reached the summit of Everest. This was the birth of Craghoppers.
