Trekking poles Leki Thermolite XL AS SpeedLock

Leki Thermolite XL AS SpeedLock 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.
Antishock-SAS Lite - shock absorption system (anti-shock) in which the absorption of impact energy is achieved by a steel spring and elastomer, adjusting the stiffness and spring rate reduces the load on muscles, tendons and joints, the system can be easily disabled.
Speed Lock is an external system for quick, easy and convenient fixing and adjusting the length of the poles, works reliably in any weather and even with gloves, withstands a longitudinal load of at least 60 kg (confirmed by TÜV SÜD, Germany), the body and lever of the clamp are made of plastic, which makes it very light, only 26 g.
Super Lock System (SLS) is an internal screw locking system that allows for continuous length adjustment and can withstand up to 140 kg of load per stick, with optimum stability provided by 360° rotation of the stick.
Thermo Long is an elongated, insulated upper stick segment with a soft foam handle that absorbs moisture, reduces sweating, absorbs vibrations, and improves grip.
The handle has a large rubberised head for maximum grip and comfort, and an 8° angle relative to the stick helps to protect the wrist.
Lock Security Strap 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 - removable rings with holes in the diameter into which the tip of the second pole is inserted, for transporting in a folded form, replacing the rings with other rings, for example, snow rings, does not require the use of additional tools.
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 69 cm long, which makes them easy to fit into most suitcases, backpacks, etc.

MANUFACTURER
Leki is a world-renowned manufacturer of ski equipment and trekking poles that began its operations in the 60s of the last century.
In 1974, Leki, located in the south of Germany, produced the first telescopic poles, which became extremely popular all over the world.
Thanks to the fact that they were used by legendary personalities such as Reinhold Messner, telescopic poles became part of the standard equipment for most hikers and climbers.
As a result of the growing trend, Leki Lenhart GmbH has been continuously investing in new developments and technical equipment.
One of their inventions, the Soft Antishock and Super Lock System, has been independently tested by TUV Bayer and Leki is the only company in the world to hold a TUV quality certificate of this kind.
