The overall 6-day hike led us in the Allgäu Alps and there from hut to hut. Coronation was here the "Heilbronner way".
The sticks were exposed to different temperatures and weather conditions and have their purpose fully met.
Because of this meniscus suffering I had more often than usual based on the poles in this walk. Here there were problems at any time.
The cushioning has also worked Herrvorragend. In my opinion, the damping optimally adjusted (not too soft and not too hard), also has the possibility to lock the damper, which works without problems.
When retracted, the sticks can be easily stowed away in the backpack.
What I did not like, the loose A4 leaflet is where the manual is. It looks as if only a copy of the original description was settled (which goes at discounters better !!!). However, since the poles are excellent, this drawback does not lead to devaluation of my hand.
