Silva Trekking Poles Carbon

Silva Trekking Poles Carbon

The Silva Trekking Poles Carbon run carbon shafts instead of aluminium and land at 400 g, which is 60 g under the aluminium pair. On a long day that difference lives in your arms rather than your pack, and arms are where it is felt most.

Features and Benefits

Carbon shafts are the whole point of this version. They damp vibration coming up from rock better than aluminium does, and the weight you save is swinging weight, which costs more energy than static load.

Additionally, the handles are cork with an extended foam section below, so grip stays comfortable in heat and you can choke down on a steep pitch without stopping to shorten the pole.

Beyond that, the flick-lock system adjusts up to 140 cm and the poles fold into three sections for a pack. Soft wrist straps make a full day comfortable, and interchangeable tips, snow baskets and rubber paws are included. A storage bag comes with them.

Product-Specific Use Cases

Take these Silva Trekking Poles Carbon if you already know you use poles and want the lightest pair, on long Hajar traverses, Musandam crossings or an ultra where every swing counts. If your poles spend most of their life strapped to a pack rather than in your hands, the aluminium version is the more sensible buy.
