Reviews

Bad conditions, unpredictable snow, great poles

Baskets provide ample float and generated good power.
Previously using alpine touring poles for my NNN-BC set up. These climb just as well and give more drive on flat kick sections. Only tested briefly as conditions are marginal (+4c, rain, deep soft snow pack of trail in upland forest). Will update when taken out in regular conditions.
