Great Poles
I got the poles for Oxfam Sydney 100kms, and they were certainly the best purchase for the event. I twisted my ankle pretty badly coming down one of the stairs during the first sections of the trail and the poles helped to stabilised me while I was walking the rest of the trail, without them I would not have finished. They are light weight, easy to adjust and has a comfortable grip, it was the first time using the too, so I did not need to break them in. The only suggestion would be to have the L and R more clearly visible on the top of the pole or even colour code the L and R strap or have the L and R on both side of the strap, as I was constantly checking if I had the poles in the correct hand.

Great on a variety of terrain. Light. Adjusts easily.

My only issue is that they tend to slip when you are hiking and have to put pressure onto them. The cam locks adjust with a small Allen wrench. It has taken several hikes to get the tension right, and then they'll start slipping again.
Strong, light, durable.
Training for the Pacific Crest Trail. I’m in the process of getting back in shape and even now, these poles don’t get heavy after 15 miles.
