WELL, ER, MMM, THEY'RE TREKKING POLES, THATS ABOUT IT
anti-shock releases a comfortable walking feeling, long or short extensions, fairly decent price.
Had problems with easy-lock system, tip broken off, one middle section replaced as it bent (albeit under some stress), other pole slightly bent and can't fit back into section, lack off accessories in high street shops eg. bigger baskets, measurement markings easily scrape off.
the easy-lock has been a constant nightmare often taking the sections apart to twist the barrels. Standing on a windy wet summit ready to descend, I very nearly throw them away because of the frustration of locking the sections. I must say the good fellow @ Blacks in Dundee gave me a new mid section from Leki suppliers free of charge and issued me with some maintenance tips.
