TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS

Is this pole really quiet?

The tip absorbs some of the impact by sliding into the body of the pole over approximately 1 cm. We have used a silicone foam, a material that is particularly resistant to deformation and external impacts, which is intended to get crushed on impact and then regain its initial shape.
Its soft materials are also designed to reduce noise from impact. This pole is measured as being two times less noisy than a pole without an anti-shock tip (MT500). This makes a real difference out in the field!

How to adjust your poles to the correct length?

Hold the poles with your arms bent at a right angle.
To adjust the length: unscrew the middle section, find the size of the pole you need and screw back tightly. Tighten more if you notice that the pole shortens as you use it. repeat with the lower section. Never go over the STOP line to avoid breaking the pole.

Directions for use

These hiking poles are designed to help you balance, propel yourself and spread the effort between the arms and legs.
To increase safety, before you start and at regular intervals, check your pole's locking mechanism by pressing down hard on it.
Do not attach to your backpack in stormy weather.

Care tips

Maintaining your poles properly enable you to maintain optimal function and increases their lifespan.
After use, if water has got into the pole, take the parts apart and allow to dry. Clean any dust and mud with water or without, with a soft brush or paintbrush.
Once dry, you can reassemble the parts. We recommend that you do not try to oil or grease them.

Why sell them individually?

At Decathlon, we have decided to sell our hiking/trekking poles individually. First because of how they are used. Indeed, some people only want to use one pole. This meets their needs.
Second, because if one of your poles breaks, you can buy only one pole rather than a pair.
