Product Highlights

LEKI Super Makalu COR-TEC PA Antishock trekking poles are built for strength and reliability on even the most challenging terrain. A redesign of the antishock mechanism further improves upon the performance of these perennial award-winning poles.

The Super Makalu COR-TEC PA Antishock trekking poles feature LEKI's Soft Antishock System (SAS) Lite that reduces stress on the joints, muscles and ligaments. The combination of internal steel spring and elastomer creates a smooth and unique suspension system that is quieter and reduces shock more effectively than other designs. LEKI embeds the spring in the shaft of the lower pole section, which keeps the spring cleaner, requiring less maintenance.

The COR-TEC grip has a 15 degree positive angle to preserve a more neutral ergonomic position for your wrist and hand. The grip is made from 80% natural ground cork and 20% latex making it strong and comfortable. Integrated straps further reduce stress on your wrists and provide additional security and comfort.

LEKI's Super Lock System (SLS) uses wide thread patterns and steep-angled lock mechanisms to provide quicker and easier adjustments and is up to 60 times more secure than other locking systems. The SLS locking system is far less prone to loosening while in use, giving you peace of mind even in challenging situations.

Super Makalu COR-TEC PA Antishock poles employ carbide flex tips that deflect up to 30 degrees without damaging the lower pole sections. This reduces the risk of pole breakage if the pole should get caught between rocks or tree roots on the trail. Standard trekking baskets are included and are interchangeable with a simple screw on/off design that stays secure. Optional snowflake and deep powder baskets (sold separately) allow the poles to be converted for winter use.

LEKI Super Makalu COR-TEC PA Antishock poles are sold in pairs.

Likes: The LEKI anti shock works very well with my body joints. They eliminated a lot of pain when going up and down hill. I do recommend getting a DVD explaining their proper use.

Dislikes: The pole's COR-TEC grips are not as tough as they could be. After a week of use on the trail they are showing more ware than I think they should.
