Trekking poles Leki Thermolite XL V

Leki Thermolite XL V is a lightweight model of trekking poles for all-season use.
They have 3 sections made of durable aluminium alloy, which provides a good balance between lightness and stability.
Speed Lock 2 is an external locking system that can withstand a longitudinal load of at least 80 kg (confirmed by TÜV SÜD, Germany), it is 30% smaller than the regular SpeedLock, 25% lighter and 20% stronger, the clamp is made of aluminium and plastic, which makes it very light, only 21 g.
Aergon Thermo Long Grip - an elongated handle that insulates most 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 8-degree forward tilt of the handle ensures an anatomically correct hand position, shocks and bumps are absorbed more effectively, the unique hollow core technology combines a lightweight design with large support surfaces that meet the ergonomic requirements of your hand. The cavities inside the handle reduce its weight by more than 30%.
Lock Security Strap is an ultra-lightweight, breathable, locking wrist strap that provides perfect comfort and enables quick release of the hand in a dangerous situation.
Trekking - removable rings with holes in the diameter into which the tip of the second pole can be inserted for folding, and no additional tools are required to change the rings for other rings, such as snow rings.
The Flex Tip Short (⌀ 9 mm, length 80 mm) is a robust tungsten carbide tip (Mohs hardness 9) mounted in a flexible holder that provides a good grip on almost any surface, especially hard surfaces (granite, limestone).
The anodised and varnished Eloxal surface fully protects the poles from mechanical damage and provides absolute resistance to weathering.
When folded, the poles are 68 cm long, which makes them easy to fit into most suitcases, backpacks, etc.
