Trekking poles Leki Micro Vario Carbon Strong

The Leki Micro Vario Carbon Strong is a lightweight and reliable all-purpose pole for trekking, hiking and skiing.
They have 5 sections, the material of the upper section is 100% Carbon, the material of the lower sections is a very strong and at the same time very light aluminium alloy HTS 6.5, which is widely used in aircraft construction.
To connect the sections, a heavy-duty Kevlar thread with an ELD spring eccentric clamp is used.
Speed Lock 2 - the external fixation system can withstand a longitudinal load of at least 80 kg (confirmed by TÜV SÜD, Germany), it is 30% smaller than the conventional SpeedLock, 25% lighter and 20% stronger, the clamp is made of aluminium and plastic, which makes it very light.
Aergon Thermo Mid Grip - an elongated handle that insulates part of the upper segment of the stick with a coating of very lightweight porous soft EVA material with a rounded surface for comfortable walking downhill, the forward tilt of the handle by 8 degrees ensures an anatomically correct hand position, shocks and impacts are absorbed more efficiently. The unique hollow core technology combines a lightweight design with large support surfaces that meet the ergonomic requirements of your hand, the presence of cavities inside the handle reduces its weight by more than 30%.
Lock Security Strap (Skin) is an ultra-lightweight, breathable, locking wrist strap that provides perfect comfort and allows for quick release of the hand in a dangerous situation.
Trekking Basket 2.0 - removable rings with a diameter of 45 mm, holes are made in the rings into which the tip of the second pole is inserted, for transport in a folded form, replacing the rings with other rings, for example, snow rings, does not require the use of additional tools.
The Flex Tip Short (⌀ 9 mm, length 80 mm) is a durable tungsten carbide tip (hardness 9 on the Mohs scale) mounted in a flexible holder that provides a good grip on almost any surface, especially hard surfaces (granite, limestone).
When folded, the poles are 37 cm long, which makes them easy to put in any suitcase, backpack, etc.
