Main Material

This pole was designed and validated by our Mont Blanc team.
The pole is equipped with an external locking mechanism for precise, fast adjustment. Combined with a pushpin system so it unfolds and folds automatically. 
The handle allows multiple grips: along the tube for climbs and steep terrain, with the wrist strap for efficient pushing, and on the knob for descents.
Made from 7075-T6 aluminum for controlled weight.

Design

While holding the grip, your arm should bend at a 90-degree angle. To do this: 
- Pull the bottom strand all the way out until the auto pushpin (metal button) locks. 
- Open the lever of the external blocker. 
- Slide the tube to the desired length. 
- Close the lever. 
Never exceed the Stop line to avoid breaking the pole.

How to adjust your poles to the correct length

This hiking pole is designed to help you balance, propel yourself, and distribute weight between your arms and legs.
To be on the safe side, check before you set off and at regular intervals that your pole is locked in place by simulating heavy bumps. If you notice that your pole keeps sliding out of place, the locking mechanism turn ring needs adjusting. Open the lever and turn the knob a quarter to a half turn.
Do not put it on your backpack in case of a storm.

Directions for use

Proper maintenance of your pole will ensure that it functions optimally and lasts longer.
After use, if water has penetrated the pole, remove the strands and allow them to dry. If necessary, clean the dust or mud with water or a dry brush. Once dry, you can reassemble the strands.
Do not oil or grease the mechanisms.

Care instructions

Decathlon sells hiking and trekking poles individually. This is because they are used in different ways. Some people prefer to use only one pole. If someone uses a pair and one pole breaks, they can replace one broken pole without buying a new pair.

Why is the pole sold individually?

Forclaz hiking poles have a wide range of compatible accessories and spare parts. So you can enjoy it as long as possible.
