"Very sturdy product. Recently used them on a hike up Mount Mitchell in NC and they totally made the difference. The flick-lock system is, in my opinion, much preferred to the twist-lock system that another well-known manufacturer uses. Just seems to be fewer parts to get messed up as time goes by. These poles do not have any anti-shock capability but I don't think it would have made much difference for me. Just having another set of legs was all that was needed for my out-of-shape self!
I do like the cork grips on these poles. I didn't get any blisters or experience any discomfort at all and I imagine they'll last longer than I probably will.
Highly recommended. A great buy."
